In this episode, I sit down with actor Robert Shafer — best known to horror fans as the unforgettable Officer Joe Vickers from Psycho Cop and Psycho Cop Returns and from his role on a little show called 'The Office' as Bob Vance. But there’s so much more to his story than just a badge and a bloody weapon.
We talk about Robert’s start in the business, how he carved out a career with hard work and perseverance, and the mindset that aspiring actors, writers, and creators need to make it in the industry.
Robert shares practical, no-nonsense advice on chasing your dreams while staying grounded — whether you're in front of the camera or behind the scenes. Then we go deep into Psycho Cop territory — from behind-the-scenes madness to filming secrets, wild trivia, and the long-lost world of VHS horror.
And yes... we talk about the potential third film, Hip-Hop Psycho Cop, a wild concept written by Robert himself. It's insane. It’s ambitious. And it might just be what the world needs.
If you're a horror fan, a creator, or someone who loves hearing about how cult classics come to life — this is one for you.
