A new documentary about the life of late Robert Kirsopp is set to premiere this month on 12/28 at the Greater Pittsburgh Masonic Center in Ross.

Kirsopp, who was a longtime Hampton police officer, and also an Army veteran, passed away earlier this year after losing his battle with cancer. 

His son Robbie, who is currently serving in the Army with the 82nd Airborne put this documentary together. He joins us on this episode, along with Steve Monteleone and Mike Dorsch to talk about it.
