I had a tremendous time while recording this podcast and ... more

    As a 15 year correctional officer and a 20 year veteran of the Army, I struggled with mental health and addiction. God put Patrick in my life for a reason. Sharing his... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bail Reform with Ken Good: Justice, Safety, or Political Theater?
Q: What is the original purpose of bail in America and how should it function?
Bail is an assurance to the court that the defendant will return for trial; private bonds act like insurance, guaranteeing appearance, whereas simple release without accountability undermines public safety.
Pickleball Behind Bars with Roger BelAir
Q: Why do wardens and facility staff support programs like yours?
BelAir states that the positive impact on behavior, reduced disciplinary issues, and the benefits of social interaction and health keep the system supportive of such programs.
Pickleball Behind Bars with Roger BelAir
Q: What do you think attracts people of all ages to Pickleball?
BelAir explains that Pickleball is the most social sport, allowing for interactions with many players, promoting camaraderie and fun.
Incarceration to Inspiration with Yusef Andre Wiley
Q: What advice would you give that individual, man or woman?
I would ask them where do they see themselves in the next 10 years, guiding them to think about their future beyond gang life.
Get More Sleep with Lori Oliver
Q: Can you catch up on lost sleep?
Lori explains that while some sleep can be banked, consistently getting enough sleep is essential for health.
