   Season 2 Launch: The Shaheen Moayed-Pardazi Interview – Texas Narcos Podcast

   🎙️ Texas Narcos Podcast Season 2 Premiere 🎙️ In this powerful episode, Randy sits down with Shaheen Moayed-Pardazi (Triple I Solutions) to share an incredible life story that spans continents, cultures, and careers. Shaheen opens up about his childhood in Iran, witnessing the historic 1979 revolution that transformed the country into a religious authoritarian regime. He shares what it was like living through that change, his journey to America, and the challenges of building a new life. From moving to America at 15 to becoming a police officer, Shaheen reflects on the struggles and triumphs of wearing the badge as a Muslim in law enforcement—facing cultural challenges, public perception, and personal resilience. This is more than a story about policing—it’s about freedom, faith, and finding your place in a divided world. He is the author of several books, including his latest work, The Patriot Jihadi, a powerful memoir detailing his journey from a childhood shaped by conflict to a career dedicated to protecting others. Shawn is also the host of The Patriot Jihadi Show, a podcast where he welcomes diverse guests to share personal stories about their challenges and life experiences. Since retiring from law enforcement, Shawn has devoted himself to educating law enforcement, military, and intelligence professionals on counter-smuggling strategies and terrorism detection. He also speaks at civilian events, aiming to raise awareness—particularly among parents—about the dangers of online extremist indoctrination and the role of social media in radicalization.
