Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Michael Barron, retired Police Sgt., Publisher of The Blues Police Magazine, and author of Thin Blue Line: Life Behind the Badge on @A Badge of Honor TV. What does it truly mean to wear the badge in America? In Thin Blue Line: Life Behind the Badge, retired Sergeant Michael Barron pulls back the curtain on a profession few truly understand and even fewer survive unchanged. Drawing from his own career and the firsthand accounts of dozens of officers, Barron delivers an unfiltered look at life on the street—where split-second decisions carry life-or-death consequences and the line between order and chaos is razor thin. For more than 42 years, The BLUES published monthly “war stories” from law enforcement officers across the country. Now, Barron—founder and editor-in-chief of The BLUES—has assembled the most powerful, haunting, and unforgettable of those stories into one riveting volume. Thin Blue Line takes readers behind the scenes of real officer-involved shootings, volatile domestic disturbances, close calls, and the devastating loss of fellow officers killed in the line of duty. Barron writes not only as a journalist and editor, but as a survivor. A veteran officer who himself was involved in not one, but two officer-involved shootings, he brings a raw authenticity to every page. His voice captures the fear, adrenaline, guilt, camaraderie, and resilience that define the profession—along with the dark, often misunderstood humor cops use to cope with the job’s relentless stress. At times intense, at times heartbreaking, and at times unexpectedly funny, Thin Blue Line: Life Behind the Badge is more than a collection of stories—it is a testament to the men and women who hold the line between society and chaos – in their world it’s called the Thin Blue Line. And the cost to hold that line is personal and many times deadly.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Lieutenant Colonel (Ret.), Special Forces Green Beret, Physician, and Gubernatorial Candidate for Texas "Doc" Pete Chambers on @A Badge of Honor TV. Doc Pete’s story is one of service, sacrifice, and unwavering conviction. From the battlefield to the border, he’s answered the call to protect others. Now, he’s stepping up to lead Texas with courage and principle. Dr. Pete Chambers is a decorated U.S. Army veteran whose remarkable 39-year military career includes service in the Active Duty, Reserves and the National Guard. He began his service as an enlisted infantryman and became a Senior Green Beret Officer and Special Operations Flight Surgeon. He was honored to serve Texans in the Texas Army National Guard (TXARNG) during his last eight years in uniform. Doc is a combat wounded, Purple Heart recipient and has also been awarded numerous awards including the Bronze Star Medal, Meritorious Service Medal, and Combat Medical Badge. Doc began serving Texans in 1998 as a Resident Physician in Primary Care at Port Arthur, Texas. He entered back into Active-Duty service after 9/11. He returned to Texas in 2015 to serve as a Green Beret and then finally as a Task Force Surgeon assigned to Operation Lone Star (OLS). He entered the National Spotlight after he stood up to the unlawful orders imposed upon 6000 Texas Guardsmen by the DoD and the Texas Military Department. In 2022, Doc Pete again stepped into the national spotlight when Senator Ron Johnson named him as one of four DoD whistleblowers who exposed the dangers of the unlawfully mandated vaccine, going on to testify as a fact witness in the landmark Navy SEALs v. DoD case. Doc Pete’s courage and leadership under pressure helped reaffirm and protect the religious exemption rights of all U.S. servicemen. That action resulted in his being ostracized by the Texas Military Department and the loss of his position as the OLS Task Force Surgeon. Following his untimely retirement from the Texas Army National Guard, Doc Pete founded and currently serves as President of the Remnant Ministry TX, an association of ministries that specializes in disaster relief and counter human trafficking. Of most recent note, the Remnant Ministry has been involved in Operations in Western North Carolina post Hurricane Helene, the fires in North Texas and the flooding along the Guadalupe corridor. Doc Pete is the quintessential Warrior Diplomat. He is running for Governor in The Great State of Texas to bring a ‘servant’s heart’ ethos to Texan leadership. He is a champion of truth, transparency, and bold action to restore Texas as a stronghold of liberty. To quote Doc Pete, when asked his response to why he is running for the position of Senior Public Servant in Texas (Governor), his response; “It is the natural progression of a Godly man to see injustice and take a stand.” Find out more at https://docpetechambers.org/ A Badge of Honor offers workshops to first responders across the nation, working with mental health liasons and critical incident management teams for Post Traumatic Stress Injury Recovery, wellness and resilience.

Heroes United to Heal is dedicated to ending “Hero Suicide” by educating veterans, first responders, leaderships, families and the public about what Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) truly is versus what people believe it is, thereby erasing the stigma attached to it.  Tucked away in the breathtaking embrace of Montana’s Paradise Valley lies HU2H Big Sky Retreats, a 36-acre haven of healing, purpose, and renewal. Set along the tranquil banks of the Yellowstone River and surrounded by the awe-inspiring peaks of the Yellowstone National Park, this private sanctuary offers more than just stunning views, it offers hope. Here, up to twelve heroes, veterans and first responders, gather for a life-changing retreat, designed to address the silent wounds carried by those who have served and sacrificed.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz discuss healing your brain from trauma with the creator of BrainTap, Dr. John King on @A Badge of Honor TV. Dr. John A. King is an author, poet, long-time activist and founder of the Give Them a Voice Foundation in Texas, which he launched in 2015 to provide advocacy, support, resources and rescue for those who have been sexually abused or trafficked, and support for those suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Dr. King understands what the victims experienced. At 3pm. On a Thursday. In 2008. Dr. King experienced total recall of over a decade of sexual abuse by his parents and their friends that he suppressed…and the walls came tumbling down. ALL GONE. Marriage. Career. Health. He sought help from a therapist, who burst out crying and said she couldn’t cope with what they had done to me, it was the worst story she had heard in 30 years of counseling, and I thought…WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT. So he did what my old boxing coach taught me. He tucked in his chin and threw punches, refused to quit. John wasn’t going to die broken because of what someone else did to him. The result, a book of poetry anonymously called No Working Title – a life in progress. Out of his journey grew the Give The A Voice Foundation. Our aims are Advocacy, Resourcing and Rescue to those that have been abused and trafficked and those that suffer from Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.  Along the way, in response to every person met who said, “Why are you not MORE crazy,” John wrote #dealwithit: Living Well with PTSD. It is a summary of the lessons I learned and the principles.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Liz & Joe Bartholomew, founders of Responders Retreats on @A Badge of Honor TV.Responders Retreat's mission is to provide respite and retreat opportunities needed due to the performance of professional service duties. Liz created the concept for Responders Retreat after Joe retired from the fire department. Joe's experiences incurred in the line of duty over a 33 year career led to a diagnosis of PTSD. It  impacted her husband at work, at home, and their family.  After moving to the Northwoods of Wisconsin, Liz noticed positive change in Joe's mood, outlook, and social interactions that continue to date. Hoping others could benefit similarly, Responders Retreat was born. Every hour of every day, first responders in this country respond to our calls for help. Many of us cannot comprehend how those calls impact them and the stress that can build up because of what they see, hear, touch, or smell in the line of duty. The goal at Responders Retreat is to offer an environment in which they might reduce some of that stress and feel free to open up about how they are processing that stress without feeling judged.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Doug White, veteran, retired first responder, and author on @A Badge of Honor TV.Doug spent over three decades serving in the military and in law enforcement. He witnessed firsthand the toll that trauma can take on a person’s brain, body, and spirit. He knows how it feels to hit the absolute bottom—alone, late at night, hidden away behind a school, his hand on his pistol, contemplating a choice he could not take back.What saved Doug was grace, the unwavering love of his wife, and her deep faith in them as a couple, and God. He was pulled from the edge, and it completely changed his course. Doug realized that we are not meant to keep reliving our past pain.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Vincent Scotto, retired NYPD on @A Badge of Honor TV.After a 20 year career with the NYPD, Vincent moved on thinking the transition would be easy. He found it to be just the opposite. Vince engaged in  “soul searching” to uncover his priorities which left a lot of time to ponder the emotional, physical, and psychological scars that were left untreated. "You can put on a uniform, bullet-resistant vest, gun belt, and shield, but it does not make you invincible."So, how do we take a proactive approach in hopes of preventing the “self-destructive” behavior that often follows?  Vince learned by listening without judgement, showing compassion, as well as providing clarity, he was able to help himself uncover his voice and path for growth increasing his well being and ultimate "self-worth" and now he helps others do the same.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Jason Sautel, retired firefighter, author, and speaker on @A Badge of Honor Podcast.Jason Sautel had it all. Confident in his abilities and trusted by his fellow firefighters, he was making a name for himself on the streets of Oakland, California. His adrenaline-fueled job even helped him forget the pain of his childhood—until the day he looked into the eyes of a jumper on the Bay Bridge and came face to face with a darkness he knew would take him down as well.While working as a fireman, Jason began a downward spiral. Jason grew up in Southern Californian where his childhood quickly came to a halt the day his parents divorced when he was eight. He was raised by his father, a Vietnam vet afflicted by the demons of his past. Being a father never came naturally to him, and to say my childhood years were rough would be an understatement.  Becoming a decorated firefighter saved Jason's life, but it didn’t save his soul. He continued to walk in the dark, spiraling down into the pain of hopelessness. He was at the end of his rope when a girl entered his life and showed him something he had never seen or felt before.Jason is passionate about helping anyone feeling hopeless see that you always have choices. He loves walking alongside those who are hurting to give them the encouragement and hope they deserve—whether that’s face-to-face or online.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with The Texas Valor Project, on @A Badge of Honor Podcast.Texas Valor Project provides a solution for veterans and first responders who face challenges due to Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). TBI, commonly seen in post 9/11 Veterans, has been significantly overlooked and neglected. Unfortunately, many of the veterans and first responders we’ve assisted over the years have not received proper diagnosis or treatment for their TBI. Instead, they have often been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress (PTS), leading to prescribed medications as a treatment.Through long-standing partnerships with Dallas area physicians and pharmacies, we tackle both the physiological and chemical challenges that veterans and first responders with TBI encounter.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Dr. Brooke Bartlett, CEO of the Center for Trauma, Anxiety, and Stress on @A Badge of Honor Podcast.Brooke is a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in working with first responders, military members, and civilians in high stress professions. A major focus of her professional work is promoting first responder wellness by assisting public safety agencies in the creation and implementation of effective mental wellness programs, which means taking a proactive approach, by designing resources intended to keep high-functioning, healthy personnel healthy. Her approach is holistic in that she integrates prevention, early (at-risk) intervention, and crisis intervention resources to ensure an agency’s wellness programming targets the needs of all their personnel. It’s important to remember that mental wellness programming is not “one size fits all”, and there are many factors that determine the best fitting curriculum such as the type of agency, it’s size and location, and it’s budget. Brooke customizes her services for each agency and their unique needs. Brooke serves a variety of public safety agencies, including wildland and structure fire, law enforcement, EMS, and dispatch. To connect with Brooke and the Center for Trauma, Anxiety, and Stress, visit https://www.centertas.com/public-safety-agenciesA Badge of Honor offers workshops to first responders across the nation, working with mental health liasons and critical incident management teams for Post Traumatic Stress Injury Recovery, wellness and resilience.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with John McGlothlin, U.S. Army Airborne Captain, and author of How to Deal With Damn Near Anything - The Paratrooper's Guide to Life on A Badge of Honor Podcast.There is a hidden side to the military—behind the stories of leadership and valor is a distinct culture that promotes personal growth and development. In How to Deal with Damn Near Anything: The Paratrooper’s Guide to Life, John McGlothlin shows how this culture can benefit anyone.Using a mix of research and first-hand experience, McGlothlin distills this culture into five “inner traits” essential to facing any challenge. Each trait is examined in detail: what they mean, how they fit together, how to build them, and why being a paratrooper offers a unique perspective on doing so.No place fuses personal and professional like the “airborne.” The result is a series of lessons no classroom or regular workplace can teach. You don’t have to enlist to learn them–you just have to embrace the right mix of practical thinking, honesty, and a desire to improve. How to Deal with Damn Near Anything will guide you through that process and put you on the right path for stability and success.

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Conrad Weaver, Director and Producer of the groundbreaking documentary PTSD911.PTSD911 is a documentary film about real people: normal, average human beings who have chosen to work in professions that require above average heroism, fortitude, and resolve. These men and women have jobs that require a willingness to face things that most of us can’t even imagine.First responders repeatedly see and experience things that most of us will never see, causing compound issues related to post-traumatic stress injuries and disorders. There could not be a more urgent time to make this film.Emergency responders are out in the field dealing with extreme social unrest, the COVID-19 pandemic, the continuing opioid epidemic (which has worsened during the pandemic), on top of all of their other catastrophic calls- hostage situations, motor vehicle accidents, rapes, murders, building fires, response to hurricanes and wildfires, and the list goes on.At the present time, suicides among emergency responders are greater in number than those who perish in the line of duty. At this time of such national crisis, we need our first responders! We need to have trained people who can come to our aid, in our time of need. AND, they need to be healthy in order to best help each citizen in need.Visit https://PTSD911Movie.com for tickets to the premier on November 3rd in Irving, TX and for more information on how to bring the movie to your city.
