WEBVTT 00:00:07.179 --> 00:00:10.759 Welcome to fit to be real and a little extra. 00:00:10.980 --> 00:00:13.919 I'm Victoria. Hey guys, I'm Carly. I'm sorry. 00:00:13.919 --> 00:00:15.820 I'm so excited about our guest today I'm looking 00:00:15.820 --> 00:00:19.120 right into his eyes. Yes be a very special guest 00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:21.920 Chief of Police of Prospect Park Dave Madonna 00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:24.920 Thank you so much. Thank you for having me and 00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:27.399 also our friend. I mean, that's your official 00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:30.260 title We have to be like professional about it. 00:00:30.339 --> 00:00:32.700 The last time I was in one of your classes I 00:00:32.700 --> 00:00:35.539 remember we were in a couples class Patty and 00:00:35.539 --> 00:00:38.920 I and I was exercising with a broken back that 00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:41.299 I didn't know about. Oh my God, that's right. 00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:43.920 He didn't know. I kept tripping and I didn't 00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:47.219 know why. And it turns out my back was broken. 00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:51.020 And we had Patty sit on your back. Oh my God. 00:00:51.219 --> 00:00:53.399 Oh my God. We did it. Oh, you were the ones. 00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:55.399 Yeah, yeah. Because you had to plank and we had 00:00:55.399 --> 00:00:58.020 the partner sit on the back and do squats like 00:00:58.020 --> 00:01:00.679 on the, as the other partner was planking. By 00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:02.719 way, that's you. I did not have people do that. 00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:05.019 And then Patty the next week was like, so Dave 00:01:05.019 --> 00:01:08.640 broke his back. I was like, in class. But no, 00:01:08.659 --> 00:01:10.540 thankfully your back was broken before. We just 00:01:10.540 --> 00:01:12.159 made you work out with one. Say it again for 00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:14.719 the people in the back. Wait, Dave, you have 00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:18.579 to give us your best. Hey guys, it's Dave. Hey 00:01:18.579 --> 00:01:22.120 guys, it's Dave. Oh, that was professional. That 00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:24.359 was good. Wait for the microphone, Carly. Why 00:01:24.359 --> 00:01:27.819 did I have to do that? Because that's our schtick. 00:01:28.819 --> 00:01:31.019 He clearly does not listen to podcasts often. 00:01:31.900 --> 00:01:36.659 But here he is, but we love him anyway. We've 00:01:36.659 --> 00:01:39.200 known Dave for I think as long as we've known 00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:41.319 his wonderful wife who's a seafitter for about 00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:43.739 15 years. Who's also creepily sitting in the 00:01:43.739 --> 00:01:46.180 corner of the room today, but she will not be 00:01:46.180 --> 00:01:49.579 seen or heard. Just know that she's here. I walked 00:01:49.579 --> 00:01:52.519 into Victoria's house today and Patti was here 00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:55.480 first and she literally was Dave's security detail. 00:01:55.760 --> 00:01:57.560 She was just checking out the joint, making sure 00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.670 it was safe for Dave to come in. And she said 00:02:00.670 --> 00:02:06.129 back off. So that's where we are right now. You 00:02:06.129 --> 00:02:09.770 have been in your career. Obviously, you're the 00:02:09.770 --> 00:02:11.310 chief of police now. But how long have you been 00:02:11.310 --> 00:02:16.229 a police officer? So I just did 29 years. Next 00:02:16.229 --> 00:02:20.030 May will be 30 years. Damn. Spent 24 of them 00:02:20.030 --> 00:02:25.520 with Upper Derby Township. That? I know. It's 00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:28.300 crazy. It's it's it's so I can't even believe 00:02:28.300 --> 00:02:30.080 it to be honest with you. Most cops will tell 00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:33.080 you that their career flies by. You know, it 00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:34.979 seems to drag when you're in the middle of a 00:02:34.979 --> 00:02:38.000 midnight shift or something like that. But once 00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:39.919 you hit that 20 year mark, you're like, where 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:43.939 did it all go? That is insane, Dave. Yeah, I 00:02:43.939 --> 00:02:46.939 mean, quite frankly, it's I've had such a blessed 00:02:46.939 --> 00:02:49.400 career. I mean, so fortunate to have the career 00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:54.930 that I've had. You know, not a lot of cops. You 00:02:54.930 --> 00:02:56.689 know get to experience depending on the size 00:02:56.689 --> 00:02:58.389 of the police department get to experience the 00:02:58.389 --> 00:03:00.750 things I experienced in Upper Darby a lot of 00:03:00.750 --> 00:03:03.210 time in a detective Division. I was extremely 00:03:03.210 --> 00:03:07.330 busy But you know at the end it was worthwhile 00:03:07.330 --> 00:03:10.750 because I got to be where I am now Yeah, wonderful 00:03:10.750 --> 00:03:13.229 employer. So 24 years in Upper Darby and I'm 00:03:13.229 --> 00:03:17.530 gonna hit six years soon at Prospect Park. Oh, 00:03:17.569 --> 00:03:21.099 wow. I know again flew by Yeah, I feel like you 00:03:21.099 --> 00:03:23.599 just got to Prospect Park from talking to Patty. 00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:25.939 You know, it's funny. It's like the days are 00:03:25.939 --> 00:03:27.680 long in law enforcement, but the years are really 00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:31.240 short. I can imagine that these are long. Dave 00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:34.659 really helped out our brother, who was a police 00:03:34.659 --> 00:03:38.199 officer for 10 years. And while he was a police 00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:39.979 officer, obviously, there are so many things 00:03:39.979 --> 00:03:41.900 that go on that we don't know about. I don't 00:03:41.900 --> 00:03:44.819 want Billy, our brother, to tell us about it, 00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:47.439 but he would. ask you for advice and stuff like 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:49.280 that, which was really nice, because I don't 00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:51.080 think I know any other police officers. You're 00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:54.560 like one of the few that I know. Yeah. Go you, 00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:59.379 Dave. I mean, who's really the lucky one here? 00:04:01.780 --> 00:04:04.280 You know, he worked for an extremely busy police 00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:08.719 department and probably a lot busier than even 00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:11.680 my busy department used to be. But at that time 00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:13.900 that he was a police officer, when Dave walked 00:04:13.900 --> 00:04:17.420 in, I even asked, Is it OK? I mean, I have all 00:04:17.420 --> 00:04:18.939 these police officer questions I want to ask 00:04:18.939 --> 00:04:20.759 you, but I said, is it OK that we talk about 00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:23.759 you in your job? Because Billy used to feel like 00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:25.720 he had a target on his back. Do you still feel 00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:28.100 that way? Or did you ever feel that way? I mean, 00:04:28.180 --> 00:04:30.339 from time to time, certainly you feel that way, 00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:32.860 depending on what's going on in the nation or, 00:04:32.860 --> 00:04:36.379 you know, recently an Ohio sheriff deputy sheriff 00:04:36.379 --> 00:04:40.740 was just killed by the father of a young man 00:04:40.740 --> 00:04:43.040 that. the sheriff had shot and killed. Oh my 00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:45.259 gosh. So he was definitely targeted, but you 00:04:45.259 --> 00:04:47.759 know, you're seeing there's prevalence. Uh, there's 00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:49.720 a lot more of this going on across the country 00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:52.500 and it can be scary. You know, you have to, you 00:04:52.500 --> 00:04:54.300 have to always have, you know, be cognizant of 00:04:54.300 --> 00:04:57.100 what's going on and you know, it's, it's really 00:04:57.100 --> 00:05:01.000 a heck of a way to live, but that's an understatement. 00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:03.579 It's just part of the job. Well, not only for 00:05:03.579 --> 00:05:08.339 you, but your family. Yeah. I mean, You know, 00:05:08.339 --> 00:05:10.500 I remember our boys would say to us say some 00:05:10.500 --> 00:05:12.899 guy asked me if I knew you or if I was related 00:05:12.899 --> 00:05:15.399 to you and I'm always like Hmm. Yeah was that 00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:18.360 person? Why did they ask? And yeah, no, there's 00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:20.199 a whole thing that goes along with law enforcement 00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:22.879 that people aren't aware of and You know cops 00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:24.680 deal with it. You don't hear a whole lot about 00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:28.079 it But certainly it's something that's you know 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.759 in the forefront of your mind. I Mean I think 00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:33.660 about it. I well I used to think about a lot 00:05:33.660 --> 00:05:36.750 more when Billy was a police officer just just 00:05:36.750 --> 00:05:39.410 the thought like your wife who's in the corner 00:05:39.410 --> 00:05:41.449 because she doesn't like to be without you Dave 00:05:41.449 --> 00:05:44.670 and the thought of having you know when you go 00:05:44.670 --> 00:05:47.889 to when you go to work just making sure that 00:05:47.889 --> 00:05:50.850 you come home every day you know and I remember 00:05:50.850 --> 00:05:53.069 Billy always feeling that way and my sister and 00:05:53.069 --> 00:05:56.250 always feeling that way so I don't know how police 00:05:56.250 --> 00:05:59.889 families do it. Well again that's another area 00:05:59.889 --> 00:06:03.470 that I was very fortunate in so Patty went above 00:06:03.470 --> 00:06:08.050 and beyond. in my career. I mean, getting a call 00:06:08.050 --> 00:06:10.370 two in the morning, hey, we had a homicide come 00:06:10.370 --> 00:06:13.089 in. There's overtime on the table. Do you want 00:06:13.089 --> 00:06:15.889 it? Yeah, go ahead. I got the house. I got the 00:06:15.889 --> 00:06:18.370 home. I have the kids. You go do what you have 00:06:18.370 --> 00:06:21.930 to do. So, I mean, having a wife like that that's 00:06:21.930 --> 00:06:25.470 ultra supportive and able to let you go do the 00:06:25.470 --> 00:06:29.889 job, that's a huge part of the game. Are you 00:06:29.889 --> 00:06:31.910 saying that because she's in the corner? I was 00:06:31.910 --> 00:06:37.339 just going to say... Well, I mean, it doesn't 00:06:37.339 --> 00:06:42.060 hurt that that's blank twice if you feel unsafe. 00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:46.279 No, no. She and I, she and I, she and I have 00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:48.279 spoken about this. So it's nothing she hasn't, 00:06:48.339 --> 00:06:50.519 she has not heard from me before. I mean, I see 00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:53.379 a lot of marriages, cop marriages, and because 00:06:53.379 --> 00:06:55.810 you don't have someone that that's understanding 00:06:55.810 --> 00:06:58.350 or like ready to let you go do what you have 00:06:58.350 --> 00:07:00.810 to do. I mean, I remember leaving my son David's 00:07:00.810 --> 00:07:03.129 birthday party to go tend to something. Yeah. 00:07:03.329 --> 00:07:05.689 So, you know, there are sacrifices you have to 00:07:05.689 --> 00:07:08.029 make. So if you're truly interested in serving 00:07:08.029 --> 00:07:11.269 the public, and I mean, really serving the public, 00:07:11.649 --> 00:07:13.529 there are personal sacrifices that go along with 00:07:13.529 --> 00:07:16.629 that. That's I never thought of it like that. 00:07:16.689 --> 00:07:20.009 Well, if you're not in it. Or you're not looking 00:07:20.009 --> 00:07:22.310 to be in it. That's not yeah It's not something 00:07:22.310 --> 00:07:25.209 I think on the normal civilians like mindset 00:07:25.209 --> 00:07:29.009 of it Which is I think what should be? to a degree 00:07:29.009 --> 00:07:30.529 because maybe it would just have a little more 00:07:30.529 --> 00:07:33.529 understanding of how the whole thing works and 00:07:33.529 --> 00:07:37.050 and You know, it's been rough the past how many 00:07:37.050 --> 00:07:39.620 years So it's, I feel there would be a little 00:07:39.620 --> 00:07:41.899 more consideration on both sides if we could 00:07:41.899 --> 00:07:43.899 all just like take those little things. Cause 00:07:43.899 --> 00:07:45.560 that's, it sounds like a little thing, but it's 00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:47.720 really one of the biggest things to have a support 00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:50.220 system within your own house and to have everybody 00:07:50.220 --> 00:07:52.120 understand. Like if you want to do this and the 00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:55.720 people that do do this career have a lot of sacrifices 00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:58.019 on the other end of it. Oh yeah, for sure. And 00:07:58.019 --> 00:08:00.240 I think, you know, there's a lot of people that 00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:02.149 understand that. in the public. I think there's 00:08:02.149 --> 00:08:04.509 a lot of people that are very supportive, try 00:08:04.509 --> 00:08:06.410 their best to understand what police officers 00:08:06.410 --> 00:08:08.589 go through. And there's some that just don't 00:08:08.589 --> 00:08:11.009 care. Hey, you took the job. You knew what was 00:08:11.009 --> 00:08:13.250 going along with it. Just do the job. And that's 00:08:13.250 --> 00:08:15.589 fair. I mean, you know, I say that to Carly every 00:08:15.589 --> 00:08:18.569 day. You do. You knew what you were getting into. 00:08:19.170 --> 00:08:25.350 Shut up. Just shut it. But there is a reason 00:08:25.350 --> 00:08:27.750 that we have you on today. There's a few reasons. 00:08:27.970 --> 00:08:31.649 This was Carly's big idea from what I was told 00:08:31.649 --> 00:08:35.909 and get your eye rolling muscles ready. Get ready. 00:08:36.309 --> 00:08:38.529 She's got some questions for you. All I know 00:08:38.529 --> 00:08:40.889 is she asked me to come on and she said, would 00:08:40.889 --> 00:08:42.549 you like to come on? I said, yeah, when? Tuesday. 00:08:43.610 --> 00:08:46.570 Okay. This is something that I've been preparing 00:08:46.570 --> 00:08:50.149 for my whole life. And now that I have it on 00:08:50.149 --> 00:08:52.909 microphone for recording, this is what I needed, 00:08:53.070 --> 00:08:55.340 Dave. I need this from you. Wait, you have a 00:08:55.340 --> 00:08:57.220 brother that was in law enforcement. That's what 00:08:57.220 --> 00:08:59.159 perplexes me here. Like, why did you need me 00:08:59.159 --> 00:09:01.100 to come in here and answer these? You have a 00:09:01.100 --> 00:09:04.559 brother that was in a very busy, volatile police 00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:06.059 department. I'm going to tell you the reason. 00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:09.559 OK. He rolls his eyes and tells me to shut up. 00:09:10.600 --> 00:09:15.679 I feel like you won't do that to my face. You'll 00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:17.960 do that as you leave the door. But for video 00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:20.919 purposes, we would love to see it. So feel free 00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:28.129 to do it now. I am a walking hypochondriac for 00:09:28.129 --> 00:09:38.730 murder. Insert cricket sound bite here. I feel 00:09:38.730 --> 00:09:41.269 like somebody's constantly going to murder me. 00:09:41.429 --> 00:09:46.820 And I have these questions, these... It's actually 00:09:46.820 --> 00:09:48.200 we're gonna make it into a game but I have these 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:51.159 questions for you to tell me if I'm being Irrational 00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:54.059 or this is actually something that I should that 00:09:54.059 --> 00:09:57.200 I am doing and I should continue to do Okay, 00:09:57.220 --> 00:09:59.720 so baseline before I even answer these questions. 00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:04.360 You're being irrational But that's you I knew 00:10:04.360 --> 00:10:06.360 that let's hear the specific questions. There 00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:08.879 might be something there might be some trauma 00:10:08.879 --> 00:10:13.860 unidentified trauma I listen to murder podcasts 00:10:13.860 --> 00:10:16.539 and watch murder shows to learn how to not get 00:10:16.539 --> 00:10:21.100 murdered. It's not working because I don't think 00:10:21.100 --> 00:10:23.659 you, I don't think you even know what shirt was 00:10:23.659 --> 00:10:25.919 Patty wearing? What color was it? C fit shirt, 00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:31.519 obviously black. That was a bad question. That's, 00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:35.340 that's most days. All right. Because you're the 00:10:35.340 --> 00:10:38.960 most amazing police officer I know. You just 00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:45.639 said you only know one. Answer my questions, 00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:48.399 Dave. This is called the segment of the podcast 00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:50.320 is the reason I wanted Dave to come on. This 00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:53.100 is I'm being completely honest here. It's called 00:10:53.100 --> 00:10:59.019 Carly's Corner, Smart or Stupid. I'm really feeling 00:10:59.019 --> 00:11:01.120 manipulated right now. I have to be honest with 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:11.080 you. But let's talk about you. Why not? My bachelorette 00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:14.700 t -shirt was called it's all about me. Just bringing 00:11:14.700 --> 00:11:16.879 it back to information. I wish I knew before 00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:19.200 I came here today, but we should have provided 00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:22.799 shots. I actually have legit questions, but like 00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:24.200 that I want to know about police, but that we're 00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:25.779 going to get through this first. So you can, 00:11:25.779 --> 00:11:28.500 um, ease my fears. Okay. You have to tell me, 00:11:28.620 --> 00:11:33.360 is it smart or stupid? That I think there is 00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:35.419 a huge possibility my kids will get taken at 00:11:35.419 --> 00:11:39.740 the playground Yes, stupid, but increasingly 00:11:39.740 --> 00:11:43.240 a concern for the public. Stop it. No, no Well, 00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:46.259 look, I'm not here saying first of all this all 00:11:46.259 --> 00:11:49.419 anecdotally, right? I don't have numbers to say 00:11:49.419 --> 00:11:51.840 30 years of experience. I'm just saying it's 00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:54.320 it's probably more prevalent than when I started 00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:58.799 policing and By saying that I mean if it happens 00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:01.120 once a year, that's too much, right? But if you 00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:04.100 zoom out across the country, I mean, there's 00:12:04.100 --> 00:12:08.259 plenty of You know emotionally disturbed people 00:12:08.259 --> 00:12:11.200 Who may or may not be homeless or you know, what 00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:13.139 have you just people that have problems that 00:12:13.139 --> 00:12:17.860 may yeah, I mean It's more of an issue I'm not 00:12:17.860 --> 00:12:20.039 saying you should ignore your kids, you know 00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:21.779 and let them go to the park by themselves at 00:12:21.779 --> 00:12:26.389 a very young age But I am saying Be watchful, 00:12:26.389 --> 00:12:29.789 but not paranoid So you're stupid keep going 00:12:29.789 --> 00:12:35.870 You're leaning towards stupid You're leaning 00:12:35.870 --> 00:12:38.049 towards stupid on that one, but you know, but 00:12:38.049 --> 00:12:40.889 listen it's a concern for every mom so Thanks, 00:12:41.029 --> 00:12:44.870 Dave way to bring it back to smart to logic. 00:12:45.250 --> 00:12:50.929 All right Smarter stupid I call my kids different 00:12:50.929 --> 00:12:53.009 names at the grocery store. So no one will steal 00:12:53.009 --> 00:12:56.620 them. Yeah, that's stupid You do not do that. 00:12:56.620 --> 00:12:58.600 I used to do it when Melody and Louis were little. 00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:00.539 I would call them different names in case somebody 00:13:00.539 --> 00:13:04.080 in Target was like, come here, Melody. So I would 00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:06.679 call them different names. She would answer. 00:13:06.740 --> 00:13:08.820 She was little, two, three, and she didn't know. 00:13:10.799 --> 00:13:15.340 Stupid. I mean, look, I don't ever want to discourage 00:13:15.340 --> 00:13:20.340 anyone from making their kids safe. But you're 00:13:20.340 --> 00:13:24.840 with them. You're watching them. Stupid. This 00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:29.919 is the best day ever, keep going. I tuck my hair 00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:31.940 into my hat when I run so no one will grab my 00:13:31.940 --> 00:13:40.159 ponytail. Dave's looking at the floor. So you're 00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:42.320 thinking that, and I've seen you run, you run 00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:44.399 at a pretty good pace, so you're saying you're 00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:46.440 running the average criminal is going to be running 00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:49.360 behind you close enough to grab your ponytail 00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:51.899 and yank you. The criminal is also a marathon 00:13:51.899 --> 00:13:54.279 runner. So what you just said has something to 00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.100 do with my next one. So wait. That's stupid. 00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:03.539 Okay. Um, I feel, first of all, let me say, I 00:14:03.539 --> 00:14:06.360 feel really bad. Shoot. There's my only two options. 00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:08.779 Smarter, stupider. I can't go anywhere. No, no, 00:14:08.840 --> 00:14:10.679 no. There's no middle. There's no, I'm not black 00:14:10.679 --> 00:14:13.120 or white. I mean, I am black or white. Welcome 00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:15.759 to my life. So yeah. All right. So if we're going 00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:19.090 that way, that's stupid. Well, we'll allow that. 00:14:19.350 --> 00:14:21.629 So that my next one is never running around the 00:14:21.629 --> 00:14:24.769 neighborhood the same way twice. I always go 00:14:24.769 --> 00:14:26.370 in different routes because I feel like somebody's 00:14:26.370 --> 00:14:28.169 following me. Hence, they've seen me running. 00:14:28.309 --> 00:14:31.350 I gotta change my route. Or there's not many 00:14:31.350 --> 00:14:40.200 roads to run on. It's so stupid he can't remember 00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:45.139 I Feel no, no just I feel like I need to change 00:14:45.139 --> 00:14:47.860 my pattern so people don't follow me Okay smart 00:14:47.860 --> 00:14:49.759 that you're changing your pattern stupid that 00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:51.740 you think people are following you. It's a little 00:14:51.740 --> 00:14:58.720 egotistical to be honest And I suffer from this 00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:00.899 and it's probably probably from years of law 00:15:00.899 --> 00:15:04.289 enforcement that I feel like eyes are on me But 00:15:04.289 --> 00:15:05.830 I think that's a better reason than you have. 00:15:05.990 --> 00:15:07.970 I think you just think you're randomly going 00:15:07.970 --> 00:15:12.070 to be a victim. I'm a rando victim. I'm not like 00:15:12.070 --> 00:15:16.309 somebody planned it. Right. I want to be planned 00:15:16.309 --> 00:15:18.889 if I'm going to be one. Look, there's plenty 00:15:18.889 --> 00:15:21.649 of weirdos in this world. And unfortunately, 00:15:21.789 --> 00:15:23.889 there's probably more weirdos than people think 00:15:23.889 --> 00:15:25.990 there are, which is it's good that people don't 00:15:25.990 --> 00:15:28.529 know how many weirdos are out there. Yes. Especially 00:15:28.529 --> 00:15:32.860 for people like me. Right. But I would say that's 00:15:32.860 --> 00:15:37.720 stupid. Okay, when someone knocks on my door, 00:15:37.820 --> 00:15:39.799 I make my kids hide in their rooms and be silent. 00:15:41.299 --> 00:15:44.519 What? And I won't answer the door. Like if it's 00:15:44.519 --> 00:15:47.620 like a tree service or a Jehovah's Witness or 00:15:47.620 --> 00:15:49.980 I make the kids run in the room. Carly, you're 00:15:49.980 --> 00:15:51.960 instilling fear in your children for absolutely 00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:55.919 no reason. Stupid. Answer. My professional 30 00:15:55.919 --> 00:16:00.500 year in the police force opinion, stupid. I want 00:16:00.500 --> 00:16:05.480 Dave's answer. That's stupid. That is, that is 00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:08.100 stupid. I mean, you, you know, you want your, 00:16:08.500 --> 00:16:11.600 well, I mean, I'm not a parenting coach or anything 00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:13.379 like that, but I mean, you want your kids to 00:16:13.379 --> 00:16:15.600 be socially involved with, with people. With 00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:19.299 the tree service? I mean, it's not harmful. I 00:16:19.299 --> 00:16:21.840 don't know. What if he's saying he's from Pico 00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:24.019 and he's not, that happens. Right. Do you have 00:16:24.019 --> 00:16:26.039 an intercom you speak through or anything? No, 00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:29.929 I just run. So you can't see through the glass. 00:16:30.090 --> 00:16:31.789 She has ring doorbells that are still in the 00:16:31.789 --> 00:16:34.429 boxes, because God forbid she set them up. That's 00:16:34.429 --> 00:16:40.669 stupid. No, I mean, look, I get what you're saying. 00:16:40.889 --> 00:16:42.149 You know, you don't know who's on the other side 00:16:42.149 --> 00:16:43.990 of that door. No, no, no, no, no, no. Don't give 00:16:43.990 --> 00:16:47.769 her anything. No, no. This is rough. How do you 00:16:47.769 --> 00:16:50.389 all tell you? This is rough for me. I hate going 00:16:50.389 --> 00:16:54.210 to extremes. Oh. Yeah. Well, I don't care. But 00:16:54.210 --> 00:16:55.769 if I have to lean one way or the other, I'm just 00:16:55.769 --> 00:16:58.080 going to give it to you. These are extreme. I 00:16:58.080 --> 00:16:59.659 feel like you're going to tell me that I'm smart, 00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:02.299 Dave. I really feel like this one is going to 00:17:02.299 --> 00:17:05.079 be a smart one. So far. So far. My track record 00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:09.759 is not going well. All right. When Victoria was 00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:13.980 dating, I would make her text me what restaurant, 00:17:14.099 --> 00:17:18.039 who the guy was, and what time they were going 00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:21.339 out in case she got murdered. Smart. See? Smart. 00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:23.339 Well, I mean. I could have told you that. I mean, 00:17:23.339 --> 00:17:25.799 I think it's just good to know her. I mean, you're 00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:28.140 preparing for her murder, though, so that's tending 00:17:28.140 --> 00:17:31.740 to, like, you know... Because if that's... That's 00:17:31.740 --> 00:17:34.960 tracking. Yeah. You know, the same way. But no, 00:17:35.140 --> 00:17:37.299 I think it's good that... That's tracking. But 00:17:37.299 --> 00:17:40.259 I think it's good to know where your loved one 00:17:40.259 --> 00:17:43.160 is with a stranger. Great. I have two more. I 00:17:43.160 --> 00:17:48.779 got one smart. Thanks, Dave. When I grocery shop 00:17:48.779 --> 00:17:51.400 at night, I dress as homely as possible with 00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:53.500 no makeup and a hat so no one follows me to my 00:17:53.500 --> 00:18:00.200 car. What I'm hearing about you and stores is 00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:03.960 that you think they are overpopulated with mass 00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:06.319 martyrs, psychotic human beings, and they're 00:18:06.319 --> 00:18:10.599 all just waiting in very public stores for you. 00:18:11.559 --> 00:18:13.559 That's what I'm hearing. That's an ego problem. 00:18:14.779 --> 00:18:18.160 Is it smart or stupid, Dave? Wait, wait, wait. 00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:19.960 I have another question. Do you normally dress 00:18:19.960 --> 00:18:21.779 up? Are you real fancy when you go to stores 00:18:21.779 --> 00:18:25.859 normally? So what's your... But I feel like... 00:18:26.620 --> 00:18:29.039 Like in my nice attire that I'm wearing right 00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:33.220 now. She's wearing Adidas swishy pants I would 00:18:33.220 --> 00:18:37.000 dress like really bad like really bad like you 00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:39.420 would not want me You don't want to steal me. 00:18:39.480 --> 00:18:41.940 That's how I would look at like 9 a .m. I'm not 00:18:41.940 --> 00:18:44.259 gonna dress like that see I'm seeing a common 00:18:44.259 --> 00:18:48.440 theme of paranoia here and I would say that's 00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:54.000 stupid I love that Davis, like, really, he believes 00:18:54.000 --> 00:18:55.980 in me that, like, I'm gonna say something smart, 00:18:55.980 --> 00:18:57.980 but he's disappointed in me because I don't think 00:18:57.980 --> 00:19:01.619 he believes in me. Okay. I mean, I'm having a 00:19:01.619 --> 00:19:03.339 hard time believing these are real things, but... 00:19:03.339 --> 00:19:06.039 No, no. These are things I've been waiting to 00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:09.119 ask a police officer. This is my last one. Go 00:19:09.119 --> 00:19:11.119 ahead, Dave. What were you gonna say? No. I was 00:19:11.119 --> 00:19:12.900 gonna say maybe it's not a police officer you 00:19:12.900 --> 00:19:17.980 should be talking to about this. Ring the bells! 00:19:18.099 --> 00:19:20.970 Ring the bells! Are you suggesting therapy for 00:19:20.970 --> 00:19:22.589 me, Dave? Because Victoria suggests it every 00:19:22.589 --> 00:19:25.269 day. Sure, let's go with that. That's what I'm 00:19:25.269 --> 00:19:27.650 saying. So you do watch the podcast. We talk 00:19:27.650 --> 00:19:30.529 about this all the time. I really need to know 00:19:30.529 --> 00:19:36.630 my last one. Having an in case I go missing file 00:19:36.630 --> 00:19:39.009 at home so people will know where to look, my 00:19:39.009 --> 00:19:41.049 passwords and my personal information and that 00:19:41.049 --> 00:19:48.670 it's probably not Andrew's fault is smart. not 00:19:48.670 --> 00:19:50.809 your husband's fault because you know police 00:19:50.809 --> 00:19:54.150 officers and like any homicide they always go 00:19:54.150 --> 00:19:56.529 to the husband first I want a file that says 00:19:56.529 --> 00:19:59.130 it's he didn't do it trust me don't don't even 00:19:59.130 --> 00:20:02.829 waste your time on him well I mean they could 00:20:02.829 --> 00:20:07.210 say that Andrew himself composed it oh but it 00:20:07.210 --> 00:20:09.289 would be my hand ready but to answer your question 00:20:09.289 --> 00:20:12.890 I think it's I think it's smart that people have 00:20:13.490 --> 00:20:16.410 all that readily available for their next of 00:20:16.410 --> 00:20:18.190 kin or their loved ones. I think it's good to 00:20:18.190 --> 00:20:20.650 have your passwords laying around because as 00:20:20.650 --> 00:20:22.829 someone who's gone through the death of a loved 00:20:22.829 --> 00:20:25.529 one where I was in charge of the estate, it's 00:20:25.529 --> 00:20:27.869 getting passwords, getting things reset, it's 00:20:27.869 --> 00:20:30.150 difficult. So yeah, you're better off having 00:20:30.150 --> 00:20:34.390 that somewhere. So that is smart? Smart. Ish. 00:20:35.950 --> 00:20:37.970 Smart -ish. Wait, we can't go, we're not going 00:20:37.970 --> 00:20:39.190 in the middle. We're black and white here. We're 00:20:39.190 --> 00:20:41.549 black and white. And I'm going to label it in 00:20:41.549 --> 00:20:44.390 case I go missing. Dot dot dot. Don't ask Andrew. 00:20:44.450 --> 00:20:46.250 It's a waste of time. Maybe you should just say 00:20:46.250 --> 00:20:54.809 important documents. Dave, listen, these are 00:20:54.809 --> 00:20:56.450 legit. I mean, there were three that I didn't 00:20:56.450 --> 00:20:58.009 even say because I know that you're going to 00:20:58.009 --> 00:20:59.630 think they're stupid, but I don't even care. 00:21:00.670 --> 00:21:04.430 This is how my mind works. I am constantly looking 00:21:04.430 --> 00:21:10.049 over my shoulder thinking like, who is it? Nobody 00:21:10.049 --> 00:21:12.269 cares about you that much. You told me that before. 00:21:12.539 --> 00:21:14.859 you know i have this saying look in the rear 00:21:14.859 --> 00:21:19.980 view mirror but don't stare that's a good one 00:21:19.980 --> 00:21:23.019 so it's it's okay for you to be aware of your 00:21:23.019 --> 00:21:24.740 surroundings and it's good for you to look back 00:21:24.740 --> 00:21:26.460 every once in a while but when you start to look 00:21:26.460 --> 00:21:29.259 too much and trust me i've kind of been in similar 00:21:29.259 --> 00:21:33.980 situations um you don't want to like you don't 00:21:33.980 --> 00:21:36.660 want to over project that idea that that's going 00:21:36.660 --> 00:21:38.779 to happen to you. Right. So like, when somebody 00:21:38.779 --> 00:21:40.400 comes up to my kids at the playground says you 00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:42.319 want to play hide and seek, I shouldn't say no, 00:21:42.319 --> 00:21:43.980 because they're human traffickers. Well, are 00:21:43.980 --> 00:21:46.579 they 45? Or are they nine years old? Well, no, 00:21:46.599 --> 00:21:48.539 but some nine years old trying to take them for 00:21:48.539 --> 00:21:52.339 the 45 in the bush. Oh, my God. No, it's like, 00:21:52.759 --> 00:21:55.920 that's an extreme, extreme idea. It doesn't happen 00:21:55.920 --> 00:22:00.400 in our town. In our town? Yeah. No. Oh, no. Why 00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:02.920 are you surprised? Great. I'm happy to hear it. 00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:06.299 I mean, listen, I As someone who thinks they've 00:22:06.299 --> 00:22:08.299 seen it all I experienced a lot of first -time 00:22:08.299 --> 00:22:11.380 things look at next last week. I know I've never 00:22:11.380 --> 00:22:15.099 seen that so you know, I can't tell you it's 00:22:15.099 --> 00:22:19.299 never gonna happen but You know law enforcement 00:22:19.299 --> 00:22:22.240 sort of like playing the odds, you know, like 00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:26.480 most times that's not gonna happen So it's you're 00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:29.319 telling me it's most of ninety nine point nine 00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:32.279 percent of this is in my head I would say so, 00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:34.079 yes. All right. That's all I needed to hear. 00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:38.299 I think it's a hundred. That tenth of a percent 00:22:38.299 --> 00:22:43.539 is too generous. I mean, look, we live in a tumultuous 00:22:43.539 --> 00:22:45.420 time. I mean, we probably live in the best time 00:22:45.420 --> 00:22:48.819 in history, but there's also a lot that goes 00:22:48.819 --> 00:22:51.240 along with that, right? A lot of online predators, 00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:55.220 a lot of... You know and certainly certain news 00:22:55.220 --> 00:22:57.460 agencies will make you very fearful of what's 00:22:57.460 --> 00:23:00.220 going on in the world and kind of really exaggerate 00:23:00.220 --> 00:23:03.140 use lots of hyperbole But I'm here to tell you 00:23:03.140 --> 00:23:05.319 I think most people are still good people. I 00:23:05.319 --> 00:23:08.140 mean majority after 30 years Yeah, most people 00:23:08.140 --> 00:23:11.500 are good people. Yeah, what makes you able to 00:23:11.500 --> 00:23:14.900 cross the street? You know without you don't 00:23:14.900 --> 00:23:16.619 think twice about someone coming and run you 00:23:16.619 --> 00:23:19.759 over you might look left or right and You know 00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:22.500 just even the simple things we do walking, you 00:23:22.500 --> 00:23:25.079 know, just around and a target or whatever, and 00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:27.119 no one's really hassling you. Most people are 00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:30.079 good people. Yeah, that's it's hard to think 00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:32.599 like that sometimes. It's very easy, actually. 00:23:32.839 --> 00:23:35.200 Oh, yeah, it's easy. And I have to think about 00:23:35.200 --> 00:23:38.839 like that way more. Yes, because nothing's ever 00:23:38.839 --> 00:23:43.160 happened to you. No. All right, you had one stalker. 00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:47.819 Well, there you go. Once enough. Yeah, Dave. 00:23:48.059 --> 00:23:50.630 But what Do we want to get into circumstances 00:23:50.630 --> 00:23:54.549 or is that another podcast? She had a soccer 00:23:54.549 --> 00:23:56.470 her senior year of high school it was bad before 00:23:56.470 --> 00:24:00.049 phones really like the Nokia phone was the that 00:24:00.049 --> 00:24:03.630 was about the limit and it turned out to be a 00:24:03.630 --> 00:24:06.029 Girl she knew in the school and then the school 00:24:06.029 --> 00:24:07.910 kind of dropped the ball and didn't really take 00:24:07.910 --> 00:24:10.049 action even though the police were involved So 00:24:10.049 --> 00:24:13.160 there it was definitely a significant significant 00:24:13.160 --> 00:24:15.980 stalker case for upwards of the year all the 00:24:15.980 --> 00:24:18.359 whole year of senior year that the whole school 00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:22.279 is affected by it really. But yeah, no, she's 00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:24.019 never been to therapy. That's true. Yeah, correct. 00:24:24.299 --> 00:24:31.420 I do this every Tuesday. This podcast. That's 00:24:31.420 --> 00:24:34.140 my therapy. You see you just told all your stalkers 00:24:34.140 --> 00:24:44.200 where you're gonna be every Tuesday. No! We gotta 00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:47.599 change location. You gotta move. You gotta move. 00:24:48.779 --> 00:24:50.900 I hope you don't like it here. This is our last 00:24:50.900 --> 00:24:54.460 episode of Fit to Be Real. On a Tuesday. On a 00:24:54.460 --> 00:24:58.480 Tuesday morning. Thank you for stopping by. I 00:24:58.480 --> 00:25:00.440 learned nothing from these podcasts that I listen 00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:02.400 to about murder. Just dress homely, you'll be 00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:06.500 fine. Done. If Dave, if you follow me to my car 00:25:06.500 --> 00:25:08.960 when you see me, a giant at night, I swear to 00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:12.819 God. I will take my key out. Yeah. Yeah. Come 00:25:12.819 --> 00:25:15.119 free. Take your key out. Yeah. Cause I heard 00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:18.079 that's like the best way to. Well, maybe you 00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:21.160 should train with Dave. Dave is a, uh, you are 00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:24.259 also, do you still do jujitsu? No, not, not since 00:25:24.259 --> 00:25:32.539 I broke my back and see fit. Now we, uh, we do 00:25:32.539 --> 00:25:34.720 some training at the station and you know, I, 00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:38.460 I involve myself in that and um, You know certainly 00:25:38.460 --> 00:25:40.960 jiu -jitsu is something I recommend to everyone 00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:43.099 everyone that's interested in defending themselves 00:25:43.099 --> 00:25:46.160 or learning a sport I think the combination at 00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:50.759 jiu -jitsu and Muay Thai or American boxing Unbeatable 00:25:50.759 --> 00:25:54.180 for self -defense Really we have talked to you 00:25:54.180 --> 00:25:55.819 about this before it was probably over a year 00:25:55.819 --> 00:25:57.599 ago But we really now that we're gonna put it 00:25:57.599 --> 00:26:00.839 out there. We really want to have you in to teach 00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:05.259 a self -defense like masterclass Oh geez, I don't 00:26:05.259 --> 00:26:07.299 know if I'm teaching a master class, but we can 00:26:07.299 --> 00:26:11.059 certainly orchestrate it. Or like teach the person, 00:26:11.380 --> 00:26:13.920 like people like us, so I can walk out of the 00:26:13.920 --> 00:26:16.779 grocery store. The homely, how to defend themselves. 00:26:16.980 --> 00:26:19.799 I really, like for as much as I'm scared and 00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:22.759 paranoid about it, I wouldn't know what to do 00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:26.799 if something happened. Yeah, I think, you know, 00:26:26.940 --> 00:26:30.440 and look there's a lot of great classes out there 00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:32.660 for especially aimed at women and self -defense 00:26:32.660 --> 00:26:34.759 and they're all great and I really don't have 00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:36.859 a problem with them well I do have a problem 00:26:36.859 --> 00:26:39.579 with them the problem is unless you're training 00:26:39.579 --> 00:26:42.059 them on a regular basis you are not going to 00:26:42.059 --> 00:26:44.160 going to remember what's taught in these classes 00:26:44.160 --> 00:26:48.000 panic sets in The chances of you remembering 00:26:48.000 --> 00:26:50.299 something that you learned two years prior in 00:26:50.299 --> 00:26:52.940 a self -defense class, it's kind of silly. Now, 00:26:52.940 --> 00:26:55.059 I'm not advocating that every woman go out and 00:26:55.059 --> 00:26:57.960 take, you know, jiu -jitsu or karate or American 00:26:57.960 --> 00:27:00.579 boxing or anything like that. But I think when 00:27:00.579 --> 00:27:03.240 you go into these classes, the reality is that 00:27:03.240 --> 00:27:06.700 if you took a self -defense class eight years 00:27:06.700 --> 00:27:09.920 ago, the chances of you remembering and or executing 00:27:09.920 --> 00:27:13.240 the move properly... Slim to none. That's very 00:27:13.240 --> 00:27:17.079 accurate. Yeah, it gives you a false sense of 00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:18.779 security. If anything else, like if you take 00:27:18.779 --> 00:27:21.640 one class, you think you can be in any situation. 00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:24.880 Okay, so there will not be a master class hosted 00:27:24.880 --> 00:27:27.279 by David. Well, there's just gonna have to be 00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:29.839 an asterisk next to it. Like, you know, you have 00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:32.039 to do this every, you know, couple weeks for 00:27:32.039 --> 00:27:34.259 you to really remember practice on your husband's 00:27:34.259 --> 00:27:37.819 daily, you know, or your boyfriend's. I love 00:27:38.279 --> 00:27:40.359 But Dave was like, no, that's actually not going 00:27:40.359 --> 00:27:42.460 to work. He's like, that's nice. That's not going 00:27:42.460 --> 00:27:44.400 to be helpful at all. And you're right. You're 00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:46.599 definitely right. Because then even in moments 00:27:46.599 --> 00:27:49.500 that feel like a life or death situation, your 00:27:49.500 --> 00:27:51.420 brain just kind of panics and forgets everything. 00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:55.140 No, I think the better thing to do is call someone. 00:27:55.920 --> 00:27:58.220 If you're walking to your car in a dark parking 00:27:58.220 --> 00:27:59.579 lot at the end of the night, make sure you're 00:27:59.579 --> 00:28:01.140 on the phone with a loved one or someone that 00:28:01.140 --> 00:28:04.099 you know is awake or that you can wake up. And 00:28:04.099 --> 00:28:07.539 that's probably the best first line of self -defense. 00:28:08.059 --> 00:28:11.099 Like you said, making sure your sister knew you 00:28:11.099 --> 00:28:13.700 knew where your sister was on our dates. That's 00:28:13.700 --> 00:28:17.039 kind of probably the best line, the best first 00:28:17.039 --> 00:28:20.119 line of defense for a woman or for anyone to 00:28:20.119 --> 00:28:21.960 have somebody know where you are. Right. And 00:28:21.960 --> 00:28:25.059 to make your make yourself aware of your surroundings, 00:28:25.059 --> 00:28:29.920 as you clearly do. And he says with dead eyes 00:28:29.920 --> 00:28:33.259 straight to listen, I just think there's things 00:28:33.259 --> 00:28:35.579 you can do before you have to worry about, you 00:28:35.579 --> 00:28:38.569 know, punching somebody in the throat although 00:28:38.569 --> 00:28:41.769 I do advocate that and other areas on male attackers 00:28:41.769 --> 00:28:44.609 yeah that's what the keys for she wants to put 00:28:44.609 --> 00:28:46.490 it in her knuckle I don't know what she's opening 00:28:46.490 --> 00:28:50.950 with that key but listen this is coming from 00:28:50.950 --> 00:28:55.829 our mother who you know you know who what was 00:28:55.829 --> 00:28:59.069 it called that was on our key a kubiton right 00:28:59.069 --> 00:29:02.789 oh really she she has one still on her keychain 00:29:03.380 --> 00:29:05.579 Wow, a little coup of time is black. It's now 00:29:05.579 --> 00:29:07.400 silver because it's completely chipped all of 00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:10.700 its paint for the past 40 years. Uh, but she 00:29:10.700 --> 00:29:11.920 didn't know what to do with it. She just had 00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:13.640 it. She was like, it's my defense. This is what 00:29:13.640 --> 00:29:15.460 you're going to do. She would wave it like a 00:29:15.460 --> 00:29:17.119 wand. You're probably going to end up hurting 00:29:17.119 --> 00:29:20.599 yourself. Exactly. Exactly. With all due respect 00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:22.980 to mom, who I love. Well, you also know that 00:29:22.980 --> 00:29:25.640 she'd be the first one to hurt herself. So I 00:29:25.640 --> 00:29:30.450 have run and videoed as I was running, telling 00:29:30.450 --> 00:29:33.289 Victoria, if I don't make it, this is where I 00:29:33.289 --> 00:29:37.769 am. And broad daylight. Stupid. I mean, oh wait, 00:29:37.869 --> 00:29:39.430 are we still playing? I thought we were still 00:29:39.430 --> 00:29:45.630 playing that game. Are we still playing the game? 00:29:46.069 --> 00:29:47.990 I thought we were still. Ten years from now, 00:29:48.049 --> 00:29:49.130 Dave. I'm going to say something. Dave's going 00:29:49.130 --> 00:29:51.190 to be like, stupid. Like, we're not playing anymore, 00:29:51.190 --> 00:29:53.970 Dave. The game is over. It's never over. No, 00:29:53.970 --> 00:29:56.390 I mean, you know, where are you running exactly 00:29:56.390 --> 00:29:58.670 anyway? Are you running in North Philadelphia? 00:29:59.329 --> 00:30:02.130 Around the police station where she lives next 00:30:02.130 --> 00:30:04.049 to the police station. I mean, I think again, 00:30:04.130 --> 00:30:05.890 I think it's great that you're being aware of 00:30:05.890 --> 00:30:07.849 your surroundings and people around you. And 00:30:07.849 --> 00:30:09.849 I think that's, that's all wonderful stuff. I 00:30:09.849 --> 00:30:12.630 think, you know, but you may be creating somewhat 00:30:12.630 --> 00:30:14.809 of a false illusion that, you know, there's so 00:30:14.809 --> 00:30:17.329 many people coming to get you on a daily basis. 00:30:17.970 --> 00:30:22.049 Um, it just, you know, I'm going to stop talking 00:30:22.049 --> 00:30:26.070 now because someone's giving me the finger. No, 00:30:26.070 --> 00:30:27.769 you're right, Dave. I know you're right. And 00:30:27.769 --> 00:30:31.130 I wanted you to tell me that exactly what you 00:30:31.130 --> 00:30:33.289 said I wanted you to tell me for her to ignore 00:30:33.289 --> 00:30:36.069 it. But you know, it also is easy for me to say 00:30:36.069 --> 00:30:39.329 that right as someone as a man with, you know, 00:30:39.650 --> 00:30:42.150 a larger frame, I'll say, maybe slightly out 00:30:42.150 --> 00:30:45.470 of shape. It's easy for me to say I mean, I'm 00:30:45.470 --> 00:30:48.210 not in your position, you know, I mean, no, nobody 00:30:48.210 --> 00:30:50.089 I have a lot of respect for, you know, women 00:30:50.089 --> 00:30:51.950 that are going out there and doing that, especially 00:30:51.950 --> 00:30:53.250 like late at night, they're out there running 00:30:53.250 --> 00:30:56.059 and hey, you know, more power to you. It's just 00:30:56.059 --> 00:30:57.859 make sure you're aware of your surroundings. 00:30:57.980 --> 00:30:59.779 Well, I do have a couple of questions that are 00:30:59.779 --> 00:31:02.519 legit that aren't. We'll be the judge of that. 00:31:03.660 --> 00:31:08.299 This is not smart or stupid. Forever you will 00:31:08.299 --> 00:31:11.019 play that game. Just talking to her. I know this 00:31:11.019 --> 00:31:13.940 is a serious question that I have. If I don't 00:31:13.940 --> 00:31:17.960 know if it's a true emergency, but I don't want 00:31:17.960 --> 00:31:22.049 to bother 911, who do I call? 9 -1 -1 okay this 00:31:22.049 --> 00:31:25.849 is stupid yeah unfortunately 9 -1 -1 came about 00:31:25.849 --> 00:31:28.349 when we were younger you guys were younger and 00:31:28.349 --> 00:31:31.549 it was always call 9 -1 -1 an emergency and a 00:31:31.549 --> 00:31:33.490 lot of police departments back then had a non 00:31:33.490 --> 00:31:35.769 -emergency number now especially in Delaware 00:31:35.769 --> 00:31:39.470 County there's usually not someone answering 00:31:39.470 --> 00:31:41.730 the phone at a station if you called a non -emergency 00:31:41.730 --> 00:31:45.539 right every call gets dispatched in Delaware 00:31:45.539 --> 00:31:48.099 County through 9 -1 -1. So if you want a police 00:31:48.099 --> 00:31:50.339 officer to come to your door, regardless of what 00:31:50.339 --> 00:31:53.359 it is, you should call 9 -1 -1. One of my pet 00:31:53.359 --> 00:31:56.740 peeves, people do not call because they don't 00:31:56.740 --> 00:32:00.359 want to quote unquote bother us. It is so that 00:32:00.359 --> 00:32:02.319 stupid. Yeah, like literally just said, I don't 00:32:02.319 --> 00:32:04.900 want to bother 9 -1 -1 if I'm like, I saw someone 00:32:04.900 --> 00:32:06.579 looking at my neighbor's window, but I didn't 00:32:06.579 --> 00:32:08.420 want to be paranoid and I didn't want to bother 00:32:08.420 --> 00:32:10.599 you. So I didn't call. I mean, I've never heard 00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:13.380 someone say Shouldn't have called 9 -1 -1. I 00:32:13.380 --> 00:32:15.220 always hear them say I should have called. Yeah, 00:32:15.220 --> 00:32:17.460 that's true. You're right. Good answer Dave. 00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:19.559 I like that answer I also didn't know that so 00:32:19.559 --> 00:32:22.299 like it all every call goes through from any 00:32:22.299 --> 00:32:25.400 town in Delaware County goes through one Central 00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:28.200 place in media and it gets dispatched that police 00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:30.440 department that you're calling that area you're 00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:33.940 calling from So that's how you get a cop to your 00:32:33.940 --> 00:32:37.160 door. Okay I'll do that. If you want to make 00:32:37.160 --> 00:32:39.180 a report to a police officer about something 00:32:39.180 --> 00:32:41.559 that's a non -emergency, I guess you could go 00:32:41.559 --> 00:32:44.259 to the station and just walk in and file a report. 00:32:44.519 --> 00:32:49.220 Could I text you? Sure. Oh, stupid. Sure, why 00:32:49.220 --> 00:32:52.680 not? David's just going to text me back. Stupid. 00:32:55.039 --> 00:32:57.460 Okay, hold on. These are actual questions that 00:32:57.460 --> 00:33:00.920 I have asked people what you want to know. I 00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:03.359 don't know if you can answer this though. Let's 00:33:03.359 --> 00:33:06.359 try it. All right. What are the most common crimes 00:33:06.359 --> 00:33:12.000 in our area? And how do we protect? One at a 00:33:12.000 --> 00:33:14.539 time, one at a time. What are some of the most 00:33:14.539 --> 00:33:16.880 common crimes in our area? What should we be 00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:22.160 looking out for? So the most common crimes, let 00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:23.980 me see, there's crimes and there's incidents, 00:33:24.220 --> 00:33:27.099 right? So we go to a lot of neighbor complaints, 00:33:27.319 --> 00:33:29.529 lots of neighbor, people can't. or have a hard 00:33:29.529 --> 00:33:32.269 time coexisting with their neighbors. A lot of 00:33:32.269 --> 00:33:35.430 retail thefts in different areas. A lot of shoplifting 00:33:35.430 --> 00:33:40.589 going on especially right now. Domestics. We're 00:33:40.589 --> 00:33:43.329 always going to someone's home to like try and 00:33:43.329 --> 00:33:45.009 solve a problem that's been building up for the 00:33:45.009 --> 00:33:47.250 last 20 years and we're supposed to solve it. 00:33:47.250 --> 00:33:52.769 The problem in 10 -15 minutes. So those I think, 00:33:52.990 --> 00:33:55.869 in my opinion, neighbor complaints I'll kind 00:33:55.869 --> 00:34:00.160 of... I'll kind of lump that in with noise complaints, 00:34:00.960 --> 00:34:02.960 things like that. He's cutting his lawn too early 00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:06.039 in the morning. He's playing his music too loud 00:34:06.039 --> 00:34:07.279 in apartments. Don't call the police for that? 00:34:07.460 --> 00:34:09.599 Oh, 100. Oh, yeah. Oh, my gosh. Absolutely. People 00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:11.679 call for. Yeah. I've gotten noise ordinance. 00:34:11.679 --> 00:34:13.320 But it's OK. That's how we get out there. Right. 00:34:13.500 --> 00:34:15.920 And you're right. So those would, in my mind, 00:34:16.019 --> 00:34:18.539 and I'm kind of just spitballing, those would 00:34:18.539 --> 00:34:21.179 be the big three for me. In our area. So it's 00:34:21.179 --> 00:34:24.030 not human trafficking. That human trafficking 00:34:24.030 --> 00:34:28.710 isn't probably even in the top 50. Okay Great. 00:34:29.530 --> 00:34:33.389 Okay Love it. You already answered this one. 00:34:33.409 --> 00:34:35.150 What is a good safety tip when you're walking 00:34:35.150 --> 00:34:40.610 alone? He did that one and oh Not excluding cameras 00:34:40.610 --> 00:34:43.730 because everybody has a ring camera except me 00:34:43.730 --> 00:34:46.630 and me which I just told my stalker about What 00:34:46.630 --> 00:34:49.829 are the best ways to make your house like less 00:34:49.829 --> 00:34:53.429 of a target? For like burglars and stuff. So 00:34:53.429 --> 00:34:55.869 I mean any home is potentially a target, right? 00:34:55.989 --> 00:34:59.070 I mean um But you know having timers on your 00:34:59.070 --> 00:35:02.849 lights Making sure you give the illusion that 00:35:02.849 --> 00:35:05.190 someone is home or at least nearby And I think 00:35:05.190 --> 00:35:07.829 an important thing people often overlook is your 00:35:07.829 --> 00:35:09.409 dependence on your neighbors, right? That's why 00:35:09.409 --> 00:35:11.489 it's important to have relationships with your 00:35:11.489 --> 00:35:13.610 neighbors. They you know, if you let them know 00:35:13.610 --> 00:35:17.389 when you're not there Even if it's saying something 00:35:17.389 --> 00:35:19.289 simple like hey, I'm running the target you need 00:35:19.289 --> 00:35:21.349 anything so they know you're not going to be 00:35:21.349 --> 00:35:23.769 there That's something I would do. Yeah. Oh jeez. 00:35:23.889 --> 00:35:25.429 I'd be like, I'm gonna tell all the sudden that 00:35:25.429 --> 00:35:29.449 sounds silly now No, but you know, I think you 00:35:29.449 --> 00:35:32.030 know incorporating your neighbors in your routine 00:35:32.030 --> 00:35:34.190 and letting them know where you are So to speak 00:35:34.190 --> 00:35:37.750 especially on vacation. It's an extra set eyes 00:35:37.750 --> 00:35:41.010 and those neighbors will Look for you. I have 00:35:41.010 --> 00:35:44.630 found. Yeah, so I think timers for your lights 00:35:46.909 --> 00:35:49.090 Having people come check in on your house once 00:35:49.090 --> 00:35:52.289 in a while. Yeah, my mom has a really good neighborhood 00:35:52.289 --> 00:35:56.789 for that Do you know your neighbors? No If someone 00:35:56.789 --> 00:35:58.590 wants to break into a home, they're getting into 00:35:58.590 --> 00:36:00.889 the home Okay, I mean there's really no way around 00:36:00.889 --> 00:36:02.730 that but I think we're getting back to the most 00:36:02.730 --> 00:36:04.670 people are good kind of thing We don't have a 00:36:04.670 --> 00:36:09.550 bunch of serial burglars And in my experience, 00:36:09.869 --> 00:36:13.429 burglary has become less and less a crime in 00:36:13.429 --> 00:36:16.969 our area. It used to be really prevalent when 00:36:16.969 --> 00:36:18.809 I first started. When I was a rookie detective, 00:36:19.369 --> 00:36:21.250 I mean, we were going to two or three burglaries 00:36:21.250 --> 00:36:24.849 a day. And it's just really not worth it. Their 00:36:24.849 --> 00:36:27.650 time for a burglar to break into someone's house 00:36:27.650 --> 00:36:30.269 take your jewelry try to sell it somewhere Then 00:36:30.269 --> 00:36:31.789 they have to give their name to the person they're 00:36:31.789 --> 00:36:33.989 selling the jewelry to if it's you know, legit 00:36:33.989 --> 00:36:37.030 place There's a lot that goes into breaking someone's 00:36:37.030 --> 00:36:38.949 house. It's not just a matter of like selling 00:36:38.949 --> 00:36:41.969 it on the black market, you know, like The Delco 00:36:41.969 --> 00:36:44.650 black market wherever that might be So I think 00:36:44.650 --> 00:36:47.190 there's there's simpler crimes that people commit 00:36:47.190 --> 00:36:49.309 that aren't that don't have the punishment that 00:36:49.309 --> 00:36:53.010 burglary has Last summer going down the shore 00:36:53.010 --> 00:36:56.960 Carmela Carmela. She hid some of her jewelry 00:36:56.960 --> 00:36:59.579 because she was afraid of burglars for the first 00:36:59.579 --> 00:37:02.219 time ever. She was afraid for some reason that 00:37:02.219 --> 00:37:04.920 this vacation, burglars were going to come to 00:37:04.920 --> 00:37:08.320 the house. She can't find any of it. She burglarized 00:37:08.320 --> 00:37:10.780 herself. She cannot find where she hid in the 00:37:10.780 --> 00:37:13.199 very special hiding spots, all of her jewelry, 00:37:13.260 --> 00:37:15.039 and she's still looking for them. This explains 00:37:15.039 --> 00:37:17.179 a lot with someone else that's sitting on the 00:37:17.179 --> 00:37:22.159 counter. Patty? Patty? Patty? How you doing over 00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:27.019 there, Patty? My last one would you enjoy your 00:37:27.019 --> 00:37:35.179 ride along with me? In the police car Yeah, no, 00:37:35.239 --> 00:37:37.300 I think that would be enjoyable and I think would 00:37:37.300 --> 00:37:39.619 help put your mind at ease too I think so too. 00:37:39.699 --> 00:37:44.000 I think you need therapy afterwards though Maybe 00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:46.820 yeah, I mean, I think I faced worse, but I mean 00:37:46.820 --> 00:37:49.739 sure. Let's give it a whirl He thinks in 30 years. 00:37:49.739 --> 00:37:53.880 He thinks he has faced worse I know I face worse, 00:37:54.119 --> 00:37:56.340 but this might be up there. All right, Dave. 00:37:56.559 --> 00:38:00.699 I put it out there. I'll text you. Stupid. All 00:38:00.699 --> 00:38:03.840 right. Lastly, we want to get to know Dave Madonna 00:38:03.840 --> 00:38:06.119 really quickly before we let him go because he 00:38:06.119 --> 00:38:08.659 is a police officer and he is not patrolling 00:38:08.659 --> 00:38:10.300 the streets right now. And we took him away from 00:38:10.300 --> 00:38:12.579 that. So would you don't patrol the streets anymore? 00:38:13.099 --> 00:38:14.980 You're a detective. Well, I mean, I still go 00:38:14.980 --> 00:38:16.900 out. I mean, I'm in a small community, so I still. 00:38:17.289 --> 00:38:19.530 You know, I think it's really incumbent upon 00:38:19.530 --> 00:38:21.929 any chief to really get out there and be involved 00:38:21.929 --> 00:38:24.090 in your community immerse yourself, you know 00:38:24.090 --> 00:38:27.309 driving around Talking to people waving to people. 00:38:27.309 --> 00:38:30.050 I think that's huge for police officers anywhere, 00:38:30.269 --> 00:38:32.449 but especially a chief I think you really need 00:38:32.449 --> 00:38:35.340 to know your community and So wait, what was 00:38:35.340 --> 00:38:37.300 the question? No, I just don't know if you were 00:38:37.300 --> 00:38:39.880 in the car anymore. No, I get in the car. I mean, 00:38:39.940 --> 00:38:41.800 listen, I have administrative stuff I have to 00:38:41.800 --> 00:38:44.360 do. There's reports that the state and the FBI 00:38:44.360 --> 00:38:47.000 need monthly. There's payroll. There's all kinds 00:38:47.000 --> 00:38:50.000 of like silly stuff I have to do, create policy. 00:38:50.820 --> 00:38:53.199 But yeah, no, I try to get out almost every day 00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:55.840 and just make sure the community sees me. I see 00:38:55.840 --> 00:38:58.039 the community. Yeah, I'll give you my house number. 00:38:58.199 --> 00:39:02.119 I couldn't even tell you. The police in Springfield. 00:39:02.860 --> 00:39:07.179 Like, I actually don't know. No, I see them all 00:39:07.179 --> 00:39:10.280 the time. Yeah, we know. We know. You're looking 00:39:10.280 --> 00:39:14.599 for them. We're aware. We're aware. All right. 00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:18.760 Do your game. I chose my house in, you know, 00:39:19.599 --> 00:39:22.440 the area of the police. So this is called, it's 00:39:22.440 --> 00:39:24.019 rapid fire. It needs to be really fast, Dave. 00:39:24.380 --> 00:39:26.880 No thinking. No thinking. This is all about you. 00:39:26.940 --> 00:39:30.340 We want to know.

If you 00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:06.800 didn't ask me so many stupid questions, I would 00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:11.679 have went with you maybe. I can't end the podcast 00:41:11.679 --> 00:41:13.940 any better. That was the best ending. Oh my God. 00:41:14.099 --> 00:41:16.920 People have said Pepper.

Thank you Before we before we 00:42:27.389 --> 00:42:30.170 leave we're gonna do a little teaser that there's 00:42:30.170 --> 00:42:33.719 gonna be a new podcast In the making, at some 00:42:33.719 --> 00:42:36.219 point in the future soon that Dave is going to 00:42:36.219 --> 00:42:39.480 host, it sounds amazing. Do you want to give 00:42:39.480 --> 00:42:41.679 a little bit about what you're thinking or the 00:42:41.679 --> 00:42:43.300 title of it at least to look out for? Well, first 00:42:43.300 --> 00:42:45.760 of all, I have to buy all the equipment. It's 00:42:45.760 --> 00:42:48.059 the beginning. Let's get there. We're very early 00:42:48.059 --> 00:42:50.599 stages, but, um, yeah, it's something that, you 00:42:50.599 --> 00:42:53.719 know, I've, I've talked about before and Patty 00:42:53.719 --> 00:42:56.650 and I have discussed it and, uh, you know, Close 00:42:56.650 --> 00:42:58.389 to 30 years of law enforcement, there's a lot 00:42:58.389 --> 00:43:01.230 to talk about, but not just about law enforcement. 00:43:01.369 --> 00:43:04.630 There's so many things that go into running a 00:43:04.630 --> 00:43:07.150 police department or having relationships with, 00:43:07.150 --> 00:43:10.409 you know, district attorney's office, the media. 00:43:10.670 --> 00:43:13.610 So there's a whole lot that goes into, you know, 00:43:13.889 --> 00:43:16.690 the operation of policing. So yeah, it's something 00:43:16.690 --> 00:43:19.820 I'd like to explore. Yeah. And Dave, we were 00:43:19.820 --> 00:43:22.300 talking about this a little while ago, and I 00:43:22.300 --> 00:43:24.900 got so excited because for somebody like me, 00:43:25.159 --> 00:43:28.000 that is something I would listen to because I 00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:30.260 want to know. I love the ins and outs of all 00:43:30.260 --> 00:43:32.239 that kind of stuff. And I also would want to 00:43:32.239 --> 00:43:34.400 get information that might help me on my daily 00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:38.380 walks to not be so fearful. But you can't ignore 00:43:38.380 --> 00:43:40.840 the information you're receiving. You have to 00:43:40.840 --> 00:43:44.909 believe it. I'm excited for Dave's podcast. You 00:43:44.909 --> 00:43:47.570 know, I often tell my boys life's about relationships 00:43:47.570 --> 00:43:50.909 and I think that's one of the things in law enforcement 00:43:50.909 --> 00:43:53.090 that a lot of cops even don't really understand 00:43:53.090 --> 00:43:54.670 that you get to a certain point in your career 00:43:54.670 --> 00:43:57.809 is you make so many relationships the people 00:43:57.809 --> 00:44:01.469 you serve politicians District Attorney's office 00:44:01.469 --> 00:44:03.789 members of the media There's so many people that 00:44:03.789 --> 00:44:06.530 go involved into making your career what it is 00:44:06.530 --> 00:44:08.590 and it's often overlooked You don't think about 00:44:08.590 --> 00:44:10.590 it as it's happening. But when you sit back and 00:44:10.590 --> 00:44:13.039 look at it You get to know a lot of people in 00:44:13.039 --> 00:44:16.119 this career. And you have 30 years of people 00:44:16.119 --> 00:44:18.420 that you've met. I can't believe it. I just can't 00:44:18.420 --> 00:44:23.079 believe it. It really blows my mind. You've seen 00:44:23.079 --> 00:44:25.139 a lot. It just seems like yesterday I started. 00:44:25.639 --> 00:44:28.000 Yeah. Well, that's good. That means you enjoy 00:44:28.000 --> 00:44:30.059 your job. I mean, you don't, I'm sure, enjoy 00:44:30.059 --> 00:44:32.420 every day, but. No, there's been days that I 00:44:32.420 --> 00:44:35.800 could have avoided. Yeah. But I mean, for 30 00:44:35.800 --> 00:44:43.380 years. Same. You know You know you think about 00:44:43.380 --> 00:44:46.019 the amount of mistakes you make too to get to 00:44:46.019 --> 00:44:48.079 this point in your career like I'm still making 00:44:48.079 --> 00:44:50.099 mistakes and I'm still trying to learn from them 00:44:50.099 --> 00:44:55.340 and So, you know With all humbleness I tell you 00:44:55.340 --> 00:44:58.539 that like it's been so rewarding for me the highs 00:44:58.539 --> 00:45:01.000 and lows you put them all together and here I 00:45:01.000 --> 00:45:05.800 am and So very happy Dave, we love you.
