Meet the Hosts: Same Starting Line, Different Tracks
Johnny and Tony may have started in the same place—lurking in security camera rooms and nabbing shoplifters in department stores—but their journeys have taken very different turns.
Tony, a veteran in both military and loss prevention, carved his niche in investigations. Think: internal theft, covert cameras, and stories involving knives, cars, and maybe a slightly loose interpretation of “sidewalk boundaries.” He’s the guy who once said, “I don’t know what the rules were—I just know what I did.” Relatable? Maybe. Legendary? Definitely.
Johnny, on the other hand, took a sharp left from cowboy LP into the realm of operational analytics. A self-professed math hater turned data evangelist, he found his passion in understanding why loss happens—not just chasing down who did it. “We were judged by how many bad guys we caught,” Johnny says, “not whether the store made money.” These days, he’s focused on solving root causes, not just symptoms.
Together, they bring both sides of the LP coin: boots-on-the-ground action and high-level strategy—with plenty of punchlines in between.
What’s the Show About?
In the pilot episode, Two Journeys, One Fight Against Loss, Johnny and Tony swap origin stories from their earliest days in LP. Picture this: getaway cars, journal roll treasure hunts, ceiling tile covert ops, and enough badges and VHS tapes to make any ‘90s LP veteran tear up with nostalgia.
But the conversation isn’t just about reminiscing. It’s a candid deep dive into how the field has evolved—from tackling shoplifters to decoding organized retail crime (ORC), margin protection, and tech-powered fraud detection. And yes, the two hosts definitely don’t always see eye to eye. (That’s half the fun.)
As Johnny puts it: “I hated math. Still do. But somehow, here I am preaching data like it’s gospel.” Tony’s reply? “Coupon cases? Come on… is that even a case?” Debate much? Every episode’s got it.
