Came across this podcast and love the content. Especially loved the episode with Olivia Mead about yoga for first responders, and how it helps with PTSD, health-based stress issues, help veterans, public safety servants… This show was amazing on so many levels with amazing takeaways! Love it…

The podcast touches on so many pivotal topics. It isn’t just one type of podcast, but covers a vast amount of material with one common goal- to just be better. Love it.

Should be mandatory listening for all LEO and first responders.
BC Traut via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/16/22
High quality content for first responders ranging from the pre- academy recruit to the old salty dogs. Something for everyone in each episode.

Great job explaining the importance of food decisions. I have a new appreciation for what and why I should eat.

If you are police, or any other rotating shift worker I promise you will benefit from this. Sleep, diet, fitness, alcohol... This may save your life, he is humble and honest. Just go and subscribe now. This is not about police tactics or training. Live well!

Awesome podcast especially for someone looking into law enforcement
jsudhdr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/17/21
I just found this, days after handling my second OIS as a dispatcher of 12+ years in a generally “Q” state. I happened upon a couple of episodes about trauma and emotional survival, and I can’t say how thankful I am that even the dispatcher is recognized in this as dealing with it. We’re...Read full review »

I’m currently trying to become a LEO and this is a great insight and what to watch out for once I become an officer. Currently on episode 38 and can’t wait to catch up!
NautyNautical via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/13/20
Working shift work for 12yrs, I thought I had a handle on this lifestyle and had healthy habits...I was a bit off and definitely changed my life around positively since listening from episode1! Keep up the fantastic work!

I have been on the job for 22 years, and this is the only LE podcast I listen to. Interviews like this one or the reason why.
senior LE via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/14/20
If you could only listen to 1 episode, make it 120 of this podcast. Civilian or LEO - doesn’t matter. Everyone has an opinion on law enforcement in today’s world but not all are informed. This episode is a good & necessary start. I never review podcasts o anything for that matter but after...Read full review »

This podcast has motivated me more than I can express. Not only does it give amazing experiences and guests, but the podcast itself is entertaining.

At episode 122 it crashed and burned...
evelej via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/20
Garrett has such a variety of people he interviews. It really brings different perspectives on how all LE can stay in the fight and remain healthy and productive people, on and off duty. Keep up the great work Garrett!

Avid listener to this podcast. Love the positivity of it and the wide variety of topics covered. As a patrol Sgt myself in a Campus police environment, I’ve connected with and learned alot. Personal favourite episode is #119.
MM51577 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/01/20
I stumbled into this podcast by accident. I am so glad I did! The issues discussed are nearly identical to so many of my same issues. From switching between nights and days, to managing life on the job and family, this podcast is proof that all of us on the job have the same problems. Listening...Read full review »

Listen for motivation to get better, be better, and do better as a first responder.
Jdave-33 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/19
Just started this podcast last week. On episode 13 now. WOW. I’ve been stuck in the weight lifting/distance running/back pain cycle for almost a decade and this is a game changer. Looks like this podcast has become quite successful just based on the amount of episodes - looking forward to the...Read full review »

I want to thank you Garret for all that you do and for inspiring this young LEO and helping to equip all of us with the knowledge we need to be the one.
InspiredLEO via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 10/31/19
I deliver for Amazon momentarily, but am working towards a law enforcement career. I spend 12 hours a day listening to podcasts and many of those hours are spent listening to these gentlemen and a few other LEO podcasts. So much good information. Certainly a good podcast. Thank you guys, not only...Read full review »

Absolutely love this podcast. I can say it has had a direct and positive impact in my life in the short time I’ve been listening to it. The guests are top caliber phenomenal. The host, Garrett, is an excellent speaker and storyteller. I cannot recommend The Squad Room enough.
skidskider via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/14/19
Very inspirational content. It is unfortunate that I barely found this show, so I’ve been listening to everything new released and all the old content. Highly recommend it to everyone in the LE field.
Skitz; via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/14/19
I had never listened to a podcast before until I found The Squad Room. While dropping off evidence to a computer tech, she mentioned she listens to podcasts all day in her office. Later on my midnight shift I started episode 1 of the SR after searching for police related podcasts. I am on...Read full review »

At this point I’ve listened to about 30 episodes. I found this podcast when searching for one to listen to to inform me about my future in law enforcement. There’s so many aspects of not only law enforcement, fitness, mental challenges a lot of us have and so many great guests on the podcast...Read full review »

To start this review is overdue by about 3 years so bear with me, it might be along one.

Stumbled across this podcast . The BADGES idea is as good a plan as any self improvement or self help book has ever written . Really great stuff that applies to all- not just law enforcement!! Well done
floridafreckles via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/16/19
Currently in the application process to become a police officer and this has given me great insight into what to expect as well as what to do to be my best for the profession.

Thank you mate. This really speaks to me. I just drove an nine hour trip and listened to you the whole way. I couldn’t have enjoyed the content more and have recommended you to three friends all in the job. Thank you again.
Ohh Lass via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/25/18
Just listened to Episode 73 and it was a very insightful episode. Finally a podcast that changes the paradigms of police culture. More than just physical fitness and gear. Keep up the good work.

Just started listening to this podcast from the beginning and so far it’s great to learn about what is possible and how to self improve.
Paulo Ruben via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/20/18
This podcast touches on so much of the aspects that impact our first responders and military behind the scenes. It cuts through the media hype and goes to the core of being human, when you’re expected to be more than human. As someone who is transitioning into law enforcement, having this...Read full review »

I discovered podcasts very recently. My new cruiser came equipped with blue tooth so I gave it a go. I’ve only had the chance to listen to the first 10 podcasts so far, but I will be listening to all of them ASAP. As a active duty police sergeant, who works the overnight shift, a crossfitter,...Read full review »
