“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

Corrections is a career field in which advancement can come quickly at times. The result of this is someone being given a responsibility that are not completely prepared for.

In this episode, host Aaron Dawson interviews Major Deann Cash, a Jail Administrator with years of experience at multiple levels of responsibility and leadership.

It has been said that the holiday season is “either super up or super down.” Whichever it is for us depends on our mindset. If we are looking for reasons to be frustrated, discouraged, or cynical…there will always be plenty of material available.

The data is clear that the best remedy to this mindset isn’t a new form of medication, but rather good, old-fashioned gratitude. In this episode, host Aaron Dawson encourages and challenges everyone to commit to making this holiday season a positive one. Tis the season…for what? We get to decide! Copyright 2023.

1 Episode 61: What they Need #5 16:51
We work in a dangerous and stressful environment…no kidding! Some of that we have no control over, but as supervisors, the cultural environment is our responsibility. Our officers need an environment in which their personality and strengths can be recognized and utilized. They need an environment that is not conducive to toxic and negative influence from other employees. They need an environment where complacency, apathy, toxicity, and defeat are recognized and addressed. In this episode, practical methods of doing this are discussed. It’s an opportunity for us to invest in those that we are responsible for. Copyright 2023. National Institute for Jail Operations (NIJO), Aaron Dawson, The Shakedown Podcast. All Rights Reserved.

1 Episode 60: What They Need #4 16:09
Speaking to supervisors…what cultural environment do we create, facilitate, or allow on our shifts? In this episode, host Aaron Dawson discussed fostering a cultural environment in which our officers are free to grow. That means that they will make mistakes, but as long as they are minor mistakes as a result of the learning process…that’s growth. Secondly, does the environment allow them the freedom to communicate with us? Are we open and available for them to ask questions, share concerns, or share ideas? If so, we will have a productive shift. If not, we will have a problematic shift. The choice is ours! Copyright 2023.

In this episode, host Aaron Dawson continues the conversation dealing with the responsibility of supervisors. The officers are our responsibility! What do they need? In this episode the discussion centers around the “routine” of corrections. Do our officers know WHAT is expected and do they know HOW to do it?

In this episode, host Aaron Dawson continues the conversation began in the last episode discussing crucial skills that supervisors must have in dealing with staff. What do our staff need from us? In this episode, we continue by discussing the third and fourth things supervisors must provide. The third item is a consistent and realistic level of intensity. If we “flip out” every time that anything happens, regardless of whether it is a “big deal” or not, we will have serious issues. The fourth item is transparency. If we have an expectation that our officers communicate and act in an honest way, shouldn’t we do the same. These are practical items that all of us can apply right away. Copyright 2023.

1 Episode 57: What They Need #1 16:00
Jails across the country are experiencing “staffing issues.” Why? There could be a host of contributing factors, but one very likely factor is the lack of training being provided to those in supervisory positions specific to supervising people. In this episode, host Aaron Dawson discusses two things that supervisors must provide their officers. The first is expectations. What do we expect of them? Do they know? The second is encouragement. It is a natural human tendency to focus on the negative. If the only time our staff hear from us is when we are addressing “issues”, it will cause problems. This is a practical conversation concerning some crucial supervision skills. Copyright 2023. National Institute for Jail Operations (NIJO), Aaron Dawson, The Shakedown Podcast. All Rights Reserved.
