When every car was streaming west out of New Orleans ahead of Hurricane Katrina, Chad Perez was the only one driving east, cutting his vacation short to get back to his post. In Treading Water: A New Orleans Police Officer's Memoir of Survival and Service During Hurricane Katrina, Chad tells the story of the five days after the storm that he believes has never been told: officers who lost their own homes, slept in cars and Walmart parking lots, and kept serving with no playbook and no help from above.

In this episode, Chad joins Lex Statzer to talk about being both a first responder and a victim of the same storm, what those five days taught him about leadership and the strength of middle managers, and how Katrina broke down the "us versus them" mindset he had carried as a young cop. He also shares how his wife pushed him to finally tell his story, why writing the book turned out to be therapeutic, and his advice for every first responder who has a book in them.
