#22 "Snooki" - Corporal Justin Fineberg
Episode 22
Monday, 24 March, 2025
Snooki, Tigger… Corporal Justin Fineberg is a man of many names but a singular purpose: to get the bad guys so victims can sleep peacefully at night. His hometown of Boston almost got to keep him, but when color-blindness disqualified him up there, he succumbed to the lure of our snow-free winters and joined PCSO. Now he’s a member of the K-9 unit and along with his dog Beau (“because he’s handsome like his daddy”) he’s apprehending some of the worst offenders in the county. He’s also one of the unit’s trainers, and knows how to get inside the heads of some of the most intense dogs you’ve ever met. One of the hardest things for a new handler to learn is how to find their voice – their praise voice that is. When the dog does what he’s supposed to, a handler has to give him positive reinforcement by getting goofy and talking in a high-pitched funny way. Your tail might wag too if Corporal Fineberg praises you in his special voice. Tune in to this episode of 56 to go fishing with K-9s, explore the jungles of Pinellas, fall down a hole in the darkness, and find out how someone goes from being one of the boys to a true leader.
