About this listen

On this episode of Frankly Speaking, Darryl & Jeff are joined by Chris Vetter, Darryl's brother-in-law and now retired longtime member of the New Hampshire State Police. Vetter has held many positions in his 25-plus years with state police, including lieutenant of Troop A, field area captain, and at one point, he served as commander of the New Hampshire State Police SWAT unit.

Tune in to hear about the evolution of Chris' career, from the realization of his childhood aspirations, navigating through various law enforcement roles, to becoming a trooper for the State Police. He shares advice for other troopers early on in their careers and provides a constant message of professionalism, emphasizes the weight of authority and the importance of thorough training to properly handle high-intensity situations that police officers face.

The episode concludes with reflections on his new role as Director of Protective Services at the New Hampshire State House, where he still capitalizes on the skills honed over years of service. Now witnessing his sons embrace the same commitment to law enforcement tradition, Chris offers wisdom about resilience, hard work, and maintaining empathy—even on the most challenging days.
