About this episode

The episode features a discussion with a college professor about the experiences of inmates attending classes and the societal implications of prison reform.

The college Professor that taught classes in prison is now a guest on this podcast, a full circle moment for Bobby. They discuss everything from what it's like to be an inmate attending college classes, the Professor who taught the people that society throws away, and untold lost stores of people who lived and died behind bars. It's a heartfelt look inside the failures of prison, with how and why as a society, we should be doing more. B.L.A.C.K.
