No, it's not a typo. If you remember the phrase "stop, in the name of Plod!", you'll remember cartoon Mr Plod was synonymous with the best insult you could give to an actual police officer. Enter the Plodcast: a new series by Police Veterans Victoria that dives deep into the lives of police veterans, their families and supporters; lives of undercover work, drug busts, robberies, shootings, deaths and the struggles that eventually came as a result of being in the job. Hosted by PVV's Carla Deale, the Plodcast is a conversation about much more than policing.

Vicki Key: where it all started

We're kicking off Season 2 this International Women's Day with a brand-new host and a stellar all-female lineup. Hosting this Season's Plodcast is Stuart Bateson. Stuart spent close to 34 years in Victoria Police, joining in 1987 and performed a variety of general duty policing roles before he was promoted to detective in 1992. Over the next 22 years Stuart worked in several investigative areas including organised crime, counter terrorism, and homicide. Later in his career he was promoted through various leadership roles to the rank of Commander. In 2017 Stuart was awarded the Australian Police Medal for distinguished service to law enforcement. He retired in 2021 and is now enjoying life after policing. Joining Stuart today is Vicki Key (OAM), an esteemed police veteran and former nurse with years of experience as a senior Sergeant across Broadmeadows, Fawkner, Brunswick, Avondale Heights and Moonee Ponds. Vicki then went on to create the Retired Peer Support Officer Program, which would then lead to the creation of PVV itself. Without Vicki, we wouldn't be here!
