    The Protectors for the win
    What a cool show. In this realm there can be so many shows that just flood you with war stories, and don’t get me wrong, there is a place for that. But Jason goes deeper than just that. To find out more about his guests. You get a true sense of who that person is. And if you follow along the entire episode it just builds to show what amazing people we have in this world. How Jason continually finds these heroes who all have a different story to tell is beyond me. Highly recommend and give it a shot. But go back, he has done hundreds of episodes. To see how far he has come is pretty neat.

    i enjoyed this podcast until i saw they were harassing another podcast with the word “protectors” in the title. no reason for that kind of sensitivity for someone who claims to be a “protector”!!!

  • Reamargay
    Great Podcast
    I have been listening to Dr. Piccolo’s podcast from the beginning and can honestly say it gets better with age. As a 20+ year federal law enforcement agent I can relate to many of the topics discussed and how they relate to my own experiences. I find the eclectic mix of guests refreshing and intriguing. The interviews are well thought out and gritty keeping the listener engaged the whole time. This is the true and original “The Protectors”…….obviously with others now using the same name they are trying to capitalize on Dr. Piccolo’s success. The Protectors is the real deal.
  • Puck 925
