The duo, both veteran police officers and food enthusiasts, take a lighthearted approach to the long-standing association between cops and donuts. They dive into the historical origins of why police officers frequented donut shops and how this cultural practice has evolved.

The episode also touches on potential donut-related community relations events and inventing a law enforcement-themed donut.
