In the thirty-ninth episode of MAKTAC, we talk about S07E35 of COPS. NYC police get some 'unfounded calls', officers respond to a suicide call and instead find something else, and a suspect gets a bit too affectionate with his distraught mom. We also talk about Mike's new daughter, stupid pouched coffee, and play a horrible borrowed round of "would you rather?".

In this special episode of MAKTAC, Kyle and guest host Brandon Mackey talk about S19E18 of COPS. While Mike is away we talk about a man who can "break these cuffs", a shed-dwelling hillbilly, and a crack-swallowing bummer who doesn't want to get arrested. We also talk about real life police experiences, the cultural impact of COPS, and reminisce about younger times.

In the thirty-eighth (and a half unofficial) episode of MAKTAC, we catch up after a long pause to release our first-ever video & audio show! We may not be talking COPS, but watch us sweat our way through a chat about our annual trip to the Louisville TADPOG Prom, an eventful Gatorade survey, Jeopardy! auditions, and give some more hints about our developing DLR project. If you can't (or don't want to) watch, the audio episode is available (as usual) on all places where you cast your pods. Cheers, criminals!

In the thirty-fifth episode of MAKTAC, we talk about S05E13 of COPS. We follow Colorado officers as they arrest a group of gun-toting teens, recover stolen cash from a waterbed, and try to get to the bottom of a topless lady in the street.

A high-speed chase ends with a low-speed takedown, Beefcake McGee dominates a home intruder, and a man's bones (probably) powder after flipping his car doing 100mph.

We say goodbye to John Bunnell's Portland episodes with a multi-day narcotics sting, a unspecified "Texas Treat", and a barely-legal scared straight strategy.
