l Am Pitts Podcast

As America is suffering under the the Biden Administration's open border policy and millions of illegals now residing across our nation, there is no better time than now to share my experience with the Border Patrol. I spent 11 months of my life with this agency as a trainee and agent in the filed. The training was intense and it was a rough year. I then saw my dream job turn into a nightmare. I am thankful for the experience and the chance to have earned the right to wear the uniform and call myself a United States Border Patrol Agent, but I am glad that year is long behind me!

Imagine the stress and anxiety you would have if you went to work and had to wear a camera your entire shift for the sole purpose of being judged by your coworkers, your management, media, and the world. Think about the pressure to be and do everything perfect knowing that if you have a bad day and mess up, EVERYONE gets to watch your worse day and you get to be judged and criticized by millions of people. Even more, think of the fact that there are people out there who are waiting for you to do the wrong thing so they can turn you into a MEME that will haunt you until the day you die. Welcome to the life of being a cop in 2024.

When you are in combat fighting side-by-side with your brothers, you are seeing them in their highest form and at their absolute best. The dedication to the mission, their attention to detail and their unwavering discipline is inspiring. One of the hardest things I've ever had to witness was those same brothers, the same dedicated soldiers, spiraling out of control, losing their discipline, focus and drive to an addiction that turns them into a shell of the man they use to be. When on the battlefield under fire, you see these guys as invincible super heroes, but in reality, they are only humans and they are not immune to struggle or addiction. In this episode I am joined by my brother, Paul Greene. Paul and I served together in Iraq in 2004 and 2005 in the 10th Mountain Division in Alpha Company of the 2nd Battalion 14th Infantry Regiment. Paul and I have stayed in touch over the years, but one day I noticed that something with him had changed. After struggling with addiction most of his adult life and during his time in the service, Paul is ready to open up and share his story and his struggle with the hopes of healing broken relationships and helping other veterans find the courage to get help.

Paul is now three months sober with the help of this organization and you can be too! https://veterans.warriorsheart.com/warriors-heart-strength-through-healing/?campaignid=20732749367&adgroupid=&creative=&matchtype=&network=x&device=c&keyword=&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiArfauBhApEiwAeoB7qOPR6E90K6_BNm6p9c4j7HGF8_Fg_p0f0KfNg9TsfqgBDPFWO6M-0BoCZtQQAvD_BwE

On today's episode, I am joined by former LMPD Officer Cory Evans. Cory, an 18 year U.S. Army veteran, a nine year police officer, and recently released convict from the federal prison system. Cory was sentence to two years in prison after being accused of using excessive force on a rioter/protester during the 2020 civil unrest. Tune in and listen to Cory share his life story about growing up in poverty in Eastern Kentucky, his time in the military, his time with the Louisville Metro Police Department and his perspective on the incident that made him a "political prisoner," ruined both of his careers and flipped his life upside down. Cory also shares with us the truth about what it is like for a police officer stepping foot into prison surrounded by harden criminals and learning how to navigate his new life as a felon.

The I Am Pitts Podcast is back after a much needed and extended break and there is a lot to catch up on. After taking some some time off and reconnecting with reality, I have come to realize how much I really despise social media. LMPD releases the video of officers throwing slushes on random people and the LMPD Chief is grilled on the stand about lying and an incident from her past comes to light. Nikki Haley has brown skin? That's news to me! Lastly, things in the Middle East are heating up as three U.S. troops are killed by a drone attack. Where does America go from here?

On this episode, I am joined by my special guest, retired Navy Seal Jacob Bachmann. Jacob spent 10 years of his life in the Seal Teams. During that time, he had multiple combat deployments. It was during Jacob's second deployment to Afghanistan, his Seal Team (Team 4) lost Petty Officer 2nd Class Matthew Kantor. Kantor was shot and killed in action on November 1, 2012, while providing suppressive fire for his Seal Team brothers. Kantor's actions that day saved the lives of all his brothers. In order to keep Kantor's memory and sacrifice alive, Jacob is on a mission to raise $10,000 dollars to donate to the Navy Seal Foundation. On January 14, 2024, Jacob and his fellow seals will take part in a 3.5 mile open water swim in Tampa Bay to help aid the Navy Seal Foundation in it's mission to "provide critical support for the warriors, veterans and and families of Naval Special Warfare."

After an extended leave of absence, I try to knock the dust off the mic and get back into the swing of things with a lot to discuss. If you watch the news at all, you probably seen me on the news a few times after dealing with a Jefferson County Public School bus incident. Due to charges pending and a possible lawsuit, I can't say much but we can read some of the Facebook comments! Americans are torn between supporting Israel or Palestine. I am finally speaking out and telling the people where I stand. Illegal immigrants are fleeing America back to their native country saying "the American dream is dead." I will explain why I am not sad to see them leaving. Lastly, the weight the badge is heavy and comes with a high price. Officers from the LA Sheriff's Department and Austin Police Department are finding that out the hard way.

In this episode, I am back out west in one of my favorite places, Arizona, chilling with my homies! It's been three years since I have been to AZ, and it feels good to be back. Although it's not my first time being in AZ, but it is the first time attending a country concert (Jason Alden). I am also joined on this episode by friends, who are also returning guest, Stew and Johanny. Stew's wife Kerri also joins us as we discuss Travis King being turned back over to the U.S. after trying to defect to North Korea, the Philly influencer "Meatball" being arrested for live streaming a looting spree. It's been a while since I talked about anything NFL related, but I feel it is necessary to talk about Colin Kaepernick and the Washington Commanders hypocrisy. Lastly, we talk about Dianne Feinstein being taking out of hospice to vote and Congressmen Jamaal Bowman pulling the fire alarm during a crucial vote.

Honor and shame. America has become a country where we bestow honor to those who do not deserve it and we refuse to shame those who deserve to be shamed. Being bestowed honor comes with a lot of responsibility, but that seems to be a foreign concept to US government officials. We have elected officials who are 80 and 90 years old making decisions for the country, a senator who has had two strokes in front of us, and a senator who refuses to put on a suit and present himself in a professional manor while representing the United States Government. As Americans brace for another government shutdown, our government continues to dishonor our hard work and taxes by funding Ukraine and it's citizens and illegal migrants from across the world while ignoring the suffering and needs of our own citizens. Being a police officer is an honorable job, but not every police officer is honorable. I discuss two situations involving officers not bringing honor to the badge. One of which caused a media firestorm in Columbus, Ohio after a female officer threatened to lock up an 11 year-old girl and charge her with making child porn. Lastly, we see what true honor looks like on full display as we watch the body camera footage of an LMPD officer being shot in the line of duty and him being dragged to safety by his partner. Our elected officials could learn a lot about what true honor and sacrifice looks like from Officer Brandon Haley and Officer Colin Billotto.

In this episode, I reunite with Nikhil Kumra after over a decade. He and I served together in the infantry in Iraq in 2004 with the 10th Mountain Division. His brother Ajay, who is also a U.S. Army veteran, joins us as we talk about their new business, Resilience Integrative Wellness, where they are using ketamine therapy to help veterans, first responders, and citizens who have suffered severe trauma regain their lives, find peace, relief, and obtain an optimal level of wellness in their everyday life. When people hear the word ketamine, they instantly associate it with negative thoughts, but current research is proving that those negative thoughts are stigma's of the past. Listen to this episode as Nikhil and Ajay help you see ketamine therapy as a new way to healing your mind and reclaiming your life back from the trauma that robbed you of it.

In this episode, I try to unpack the mystery of white women and their need to acknowledge how beautiful my black skin is. The crazy plane lady speaks and I use the crazy hot scale to show you all how crazy she really is. A Seattle Police Officer retires and writes a 15 page email to the mayor and city council. I tell you all why I am not impressed with her email. It has been 20 plus years since the War On Terror started. It is time for Iraq War veterans to make peace with the war. I break down and weigh in on the Dallas police officers who "laughed and mocked a disabled war vet who urinated on himself." Lastly, former President Donald Trump is arrested and has his mugshot taken. This should concern all Americans regardless of your political affliction.

On this episode I discuss the new Little Mermaid after having watched it with my family. The first thing I noticed about the movie was that there was too much diversity and it didn't make sense. Are you thinking about sending a d!ck pic to a person you met on a dating app? Just realize that you might get blackmailed with your own d!ck pick as there has been an up-tic in people being extorted by their bad decisions. The bar for entertainment and popularity in America counties to be lowered with people like Adam22, Lena The Plug and Pinkydoll leading the charge. Lastly, do you suffer from time blindness?

July has been a crazy month filed with root canals, traveling and crazy people! Despite being a few weeks behind on the podcast, I think it's important that I talk about some recent topics such as the lady on the plane who claims a person was not real, the Carlee Russell incident, The US Soldier who defected to North Korea. I know we are not suppose to talk about 2020, but considering Jason Alden's new song and video, I think it's time we talk about 2020 even though they don't want us to.

This week I am joined in studio by Jason Kiefer who is 1/3 of the One More And I'm Outta Here Podcast. Jason came down to hang with me for the day so we could have a little man date with zero man love. I showed Jason around Louisville and even took him on a quick trip through the hood to see the best spots for getting the best friend chicken in town and the highest probability of becoming a murder victim, hence why we call it murder chicken! After our drive, we watched The Sound Of Freedom, which we will discuss in this episode along with a lot of other interesting topics.

In this episode, I am joined by fellow author and veteran, Christian Bussler. He is the author of No Greater Honor No Tougher Duty: A Memoir Of A Mortuary Affairs Marine. His book takes you on a front seat ride with him through his three combat tours in Iraq, him being wounded, and most of all, his mission to recover the remains of his fallen service members and get them home to their families. The first time I came across Bussler was his episode on the Jocko Podcast. I was so taken with his story that I reached out to him on social media and he took me under his wing and helped guide me through the process of writing my own book. His book has had so much success that it has been optioned to be adapted into a movie! Strap yourselves in and hold on for this amazing, gut wrenching, and tear jerker of an interview. Note. I was not crying. It's allergy season here in Kentucky Be sure to pick up a copy of the book for yourself! https://www.amazon.com/No-Tougher-Duty-Greater-Honor/dp/1546604936

As the world anxiously waits to learn the fate of the wealthy people who paid $250,000 dollars to see the Titanic, everyone is asking "why would anyone pay that much money to do that?" Sit back and listen to me explain why I think rich people get board and do wild, and crazy stuff the rest of us average income people would never imagine doing. The Biden administration holds a Pride party at the White House that ends with transgender titties bouncing on the White House lawn. Juneteenth celebrations turn violent as shootings kill one and sends dozens more to the hospital. Lastly, being cop is great, but is it enough? I explain to everyone the new path that God has placed me on and my new hobby that is making me feel alive - Ju Jitsu!

Summer time is upon us and that means more work and crazy police calls and encounters for me while I am on the streets. In this episode, I share some of my experiences on the streets over the list few weeks which includes some very unforgettable young people. With all the things I see and encounter in my job as a police officer, it always reminds me that I need to be present and active in my children's lives. It's officially every major corporations favorite month - Pride Month. I talk about how pride parades are nothing more than a celebration of perversion and debauchery that has nothing to empowering gay people. Lastly, I talk about the debt ceiling, illegal immigration and the three things that need to happen immediately to change the American system of government to a government for the people, not the elite ruling class known as politicians.

After an extended hiatus and much needed break, I am back for episode 96! In this episode I explain my absence over the last few weeks and give the United States Navy crap for using drag queens to recruit and advertise. For the first time in my adult life, I now tell young Americans to reconsider joining the military due to it's priorities being out of line. You tell we are entering the political voting season because of the pandering to the black community and warning them not to travel to Florida if they care about their lives. Lastly, in a world media bias and misinformation, where do you go to get your news? I share with you all the three main podcast I consume to be informed.

The month of April has been emotionally and mentally taxing to not only me, but all of my fellow officers in Louisville and our families. Multiple mass shootings, unprecedented violence, and drama at every level of life. In this episode I talk about Louisville’s mass shooting, the 9th street divide and how I am seeing America’s illegal immigration problem start to manifest where I work. Lastly, I was able to confront a former church colleague about their treatment of me during 2020. Visit my sponsor and get yourself some great products at the link below!
