  • Eye opening!

    Very insightful and informative look under the covers of the USA’s misguided approach to criminal justice. Every criminal justice practitioner and every legislator should be required to listen to this podcast.

  • Tremendous Opportunity to Go Inside a Prison

    The Making Amends podcast does a truly amazing job of bringing important, but otherwise mostly unseen, issues to life succinctly and compellingly from the voices of both prisoners and prosecutors. A must-listen for anyone concerned about justice and about our “incarceration nation.”

  • Humanizing

    Having never stepped foot in a prison myself, this podcast was humanizing. Hearing primary accounts from people aging and developing in the prison system brought insight and empathy. For those privileged enough not to have a personal relationship with the criminal justice system, this podcast is important for you. Learn, grow, and be awakened by the testimonies of the men featured in this series.
