Eric Dym started his career of service as a US Marine and finished it by retiring as a NPYD Lieutenant. He was part of a now defunct unit known as Anit-Crime. These guys were the real deal, taking some of New York City's worst off the street. As we watch NYC descend into madness you can't help but wonder why they would take away such an impactful unit. Now retired, Eric hosts the popular podcast, New York's Fines: Retired & Unfiltered, with his co-host John Macari.

Todd Taylor started as a full time firefighter for 7 years. He went to the PD to be able to have full custody of his son, something a FF schedule wouldn't allow. He never intended to stay with the PD but it happened. He was put into special units fairly quickly and was a definite shit magnet! Todd worked patrol, narcotics, and was a member of the state task force team. He suffered from a broken back on duty which he healed from eventually, until it broke two more times. Todd has some amazing stories and is one hell of a tough guy! Follow Todd on Instagram @toddtaylorimages
