We had to stand and salute during this podcast, and for good reason, as we interviewed one of our 'ole Maryland State Police Superintendents, Colonel Ed Norris, also known as NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Operations Norris, and Baltimore City Police Commissioner Norris!

Join Mike Allred and friends (Dave, Kevin, Koz and Todd) in a special two-hour podcast, where we were able to ask the Colonel anything regarding his storied life and career. Nothing was off-limits, so we asked him about his early years and childhood, growing up in Brooklyn, NY. We asked him how he got into law enforcement and who his influences were as he started a 20-year career in NYPD. We ask him about his experiences and many assignments, as well as how he stumbled onto the 9/11 terrorist plot years before we were attacked! We ask about his role in the movie, 'Jack the Ripper in America.' We ask how he ended up as Commissioner in Baltimore City. We ask about his appointment as MD State Police Colonel. We ask about the charges against him, his arrest, and his time serving in federal penitentiaries...and we were just getting started!!

You can hear the answers to all of the above questions and many more in this special story of the rise, fall, restoration and redemption of one of America's best-known cops...a man who loves policing and has seen the best and worst that comes from wearing the badge.

You can listen to Ed and his co-hosts' radio show each morning on the Big Bad Morning Show on CBS WJZ-FM (105.7 The FAN) in Baltimore, MD from 6am to 10am.
