Able & Baker: Episode 32-First Anniversary Show!

Former Minneapolis police officers, Chris and Karina Kelley celebrate their first year in the podcast business! The idea of starting a podcast emerged while they were still on patrol and wanted to focus on issues in law enforcement and how they intersect with local and national politics; they decided to call their show, the Able and Baker podcast as an homage to their former preferred squad car assignments, Able (Chris) was the driver, and Baker (Karina) was the passenger officer responsible for running the MDC (mobile data computer) and radio.
The process of coming up with a podcast name, to their first show, was exciting but fraught with technical challenges; it's never as easy as people make it out to be! With that being said, we are honored to be able to bring you authentic, honest, interesting shows that are critically analyzed through an experienced law enforcement and military lens. In addition, as a former Congressional candidate and Army veteran, Chris brings his candidate and political experience to the forefront when discussing local and national politics.
We are honored and humbled to have such a great loyal base of listeners all around the country and around the world; we promise to never waste your precious time and to rightfully inform, educate, and provide some critical analysis of current law enforcement events and its political reverberations.
On our show we always honor our fallen brothers and sisters and ask that you take a moment to honor them for their ultimate sacrifice!
Today we honor:
Sgt. John Arden Jensen (Fort Worth Texas Police Department)
Detective James Michael Lett (Benton Police Department)
Senior Police Officer Jorge Pastore (Austin Police Department)
Correction Officer III Jovian Motley (Texas Department of Criminal Justice)
Border Patrol Agent Freddy Ortiz (U.S. Dept of Homeland Security)
