| 6/26/26 |  #TBR335 - Whisker Wisdom with Evan | Grab your combs and settle in. This week on Tall Boy Radio, Beans is joined by a man who knows exactly how to frame a face—whether it’s through a high-end Leica lens or a set of 301 lashes. Evan Fowler joins the show to bridge the gap between rugged masculinity and high-glam maintenance.We’re diving deep into the art and science of facial hair care. For some, it’s a hobby; for others, like Evan, it’s a canvas. From the corporate stubble to the "wizard-tier" beard, we break down how to keep your face looking intentional rather than accidental.Tools of the Trade: We cut through the marketing noise to find out what you actually need. The Product Gauntlet: Oil, balm, or wax? We discuss the chemistry of grooming. Learn why "high-street" scents can sometimes do more harm than good and why hydration starts at the skin level, not just the hair.A Style for Every Face: Not every jawline is built for a Van Dyke. We discuss how to identify your face shape and choose a style that complements your features.The "Different" Tax: Despite living in 2026, prejudice against unconventional facial hair—and the people who wear it—still lingers. Evan shares his personal experiences navigating the professional photography world and the drag scene, discussing the courage it takes to defy the "standard" look.The episode wraps up with a masterclass in perspective. Drawing from his years behind the camera, Evan shares his golden rule for grooming (and life): Don't sweat the small stuff. > We obsess over symmetry. But in the real world? Nobody is looking at your beard with a magnifying glass. If one side is a millimeter shorter than the other, breathe.

| 6/19/26 |  #TBR334 - The Street Crime Detective | In this gripping second installment, the Tall Boy Radio studio welcomes back a true titan of law enforcement history: Retired Lt. Cmdr. Vernon Geberth. Hosts Beans and Gaz dive deep into the formative years of the man who literally wrote the book on homicide investigation.This episode takes us back to the gritty streets of Queens, where a young Geberth found himself at a professional crossroads. Despite a record that spoke for itself, Vernon opens up about the sting of being passed over for promotion to Sergeant by a biased superior—a setback that only served to fuel his relentless drive to tackle the borough’s most dangerous elements.The Misfire Miracle: In perhaps the most chilling moment of the interview, Vernon recounts a face-to-face encounter with a perpetrator that should have been his last. With a gun pressed against him and the trigger pulled, he discusses how a mechanical failure—a faulty firing pin—reinforced his unwavering faith in God and kept him in the fight.The Urban War: Geberth provides a raw, boots-on-the-ground perspective of the 1970s conflict with the Black Liberation Army, describing an era of policing that felt less like a job and more like a domestic insurgency.Taking Down Giants: From high-speed car chases through the narrow corridors of New York to the physical reality of subduing 6'8" villains, Vernon shares the adrenaline-fueled reality of street crime enforcement.Mafiosi and Murderers: We hear the stories of arresting made men and navigating the complex social hierarchies of the Queens underworld, where the stakes were always life and death.This isn't just a collection of "cop stories." It’s a masterclass in resilience, faith, and integrity. Vernon Geberth discusses how he maintained his moral compass while operating in a world of extreme violence and systemic bias. Whether you are a true crime aficionado, a student of history, or someone looking for a story about overcoming professional adversity, this conversation delivers."I wasn't just fighting the guys on the street; sometimes I was fighting the guys behind the desks. But I knew my purpose." — Lt. Cmdr. Vernon GeberthGrab a cold one, settle in, and listen to a legend recount the wars he won before he ever became the 'Master of Homicide.'You can buy Vernon's book hereTHE GODFATHER OF HOMICIDE SECOND EDITION: VERNON J.

| 2/13/26 |  #TBR316 - Confessions of a South Bronx Cop | Grab a cold one and pull up a chair. This week, Beans and Gaz are joined by a man whose life story sounds less like a resume and more like a Hollywood screenplay. We are sitting down with retired NYPD veteran Al Gonzalez, a man who spent decades navigating the grit of the South Bronx while carrying a set of bagpipes through the halls of global history.Al takes us deep into the "Fort Apache" era of the South Bronx. We hear firsthand accounts of the organized chaos of the 80s and 90s, the adrenaline of the beat, and the unforgettable cast of characters—both on the force and on the street—that shaped his career. These stories are so raw and compelling they eventually leaped off the pavement and onto the stage in Al’s acclaimed Off-Broadway play, Officer: Confessions of a South Bronx Cop.It’s not every day you meet a cop who has stood watch over the most famous women in the world. Al shares what it was really like to pull security detail for:Mother Teresa: Protecting a living saint in the heart of the city.Princess Diana: Insights into the charisma and the crowds that followed the People’s Princess.Just when you think you’ve got Al figured out, he pulls out the pipes. We discuss his secondary life as a world-class bagpiper—a talent that took him from the precinct to the Highlands of Scotland.

| 2/6/26 |  #TBR315 - The Tactical Patrol Force | In this high-octane episode of Tall Boy Radio, hosts Beans and Gaz sit down with a true legend of American law enforcement: Retired Lt. Cmdr. Vernon J. Geberth. While many know him as the "Godfather of Homicide Investigation," this conversation peels back the layers to reveal the formative years and the grit that forged a world-class detective.Before he was commanding homicide units, Geberth was a young man with an unstoppable work ethic. He takes the listeners on a journey through his diverse early career, explaining how every "odd job" served as a building block for his future in the NYPD:The Hustle: From the precision and pacing of working for UPS to the life-or-death urgency of ambulance driving.The Vigilance: His time as a lifeguard, where he first learned the weight of responsibility for the lives of others.The Transition: How these civilian roles prepared his mindset for the tactical demands of the police force.The heart of the episode dives into Geberth’s time on the toughest streets of New York City. As a member of the tactical police force, he faced situations that sound like they were pulled straight from a cinematic thriller.He shares a gripping account of disarming a drug dealer brandishing an 11-inch blade. In a testament to his professionalism and composure, Geberth recounts how that same individual later thanked him for showing restraint and choosing not to use lethal force—a rare moment of mutual respect in a violent environment.Perhaps the most poignant moment of the interview is Geberth's recollection of a harrowing fire rescue. He describes the chaotic scene of a burning house where he successfully pulled two babies to safety. Despite the life-saving feat, the story takes a characteristic "cop-life" turn: Geberth reveals how he received absolutely none of the public credit for the rescue, highlighting the humble, "just doing the job" mentality that defined his career."Everything I did, from driving that ambulance to watching that pool, was just training for the chaos of the NYPD." — Vernon J. GeberthBeans and Gaz bring their signature conversational style to this deep dive, balancing the heavy intensity of police work with genuine curiosity. Whether you are a true crime aficionado, a student of law enforcement, or just a fan of incredible storytelling, this episode offers a masterclass in character, bravery, and the reality of life behind the badge.The Making of a LawmanBoots on the Ground in the NYPDThe Unsung HeroWhy Listen?Pick up Vernon's book - The Godfather of Homicide hereTHE GODFATHER OF HOMICIDE: VERNON J.
