  • At 4:45 On My Last Day Of Work, I Hit "Send"
    May 20 2024
    Adena interviews Colette Dennehy, a former U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Supervisory Special Agent. Colette started as a clerk typist, became a patrol officer, a customs inspector, and eventually an investigatory special agent. Her career was chasing and catching smugglers. Growing up in a house with four brothers might have prepared Colette for a career in a male-dominated field. Her personal experience differs from many of our previous guests, as Colette notes she was perceived as intimidating, and wasn't afraid to speak up loudly when something inappropriate went on at her workplace. Conversations With Men I Wish I Never Had is a production of Voyage Media. The series is produced by Nat Mundel, Robert Mitas, and Dan Benamor. Executive produced by Adena Grundy. Story Producer: Natasha Stephan. Produced and edited by Dan Benamor and Sameena Mustafa. Original theme by Derlis Gonzalez.
