Loved the “How one man rebuilt his life, 100 miles at a time” episode! It was my first listen for this podcast but definitely not my last. Such a good story and fascinating insight into life after prison for all these people.
Apple Podcasts5LizB2007United Statesa year ago - Plain stupidity or misinformation?
So much misinformation spread in the anti black Latinos episodes. You should know what those words mean in Spanish or at least in Mexico.

Thank you so much for bringing these insightful stories to us all.
