What is it like to be a police officer in a rural environment?  How does it feel when you approach that call knowing backup could be 45 minutes away?  In Part 1 of this two part series, Keith talks with Seth, a police officer in a very rural area of Eastern Tennessee.  Seth talks about his academy training, very abbreviated field training, and just how far away is backup can be at any time.  Also in this episode, Keith answers listener email and talks about going the extra mile when working calls.  Finally, since Keith is no stranger to diving right in to controversial topics and discussions, he goes head first into the heated debate taking place right now......Is Die Hard a Christmas movie or not?
