Episode 50 - Unhappy New Year

Thank you for listening to Tales From The Jails!! We've reached the end of Season One, my first year of incarceration, and are pressing pause on the podcast, but we will be returning in the New Year with Season Two, which turns out to be far worse than year one. 

This final episode ends 2016 showing that even the grim reality of 23 hour bang up doesn't stop the mayhem and madness.

The episode features Into The Darkness, written and performed by The Shadow Poet and produced by Lance Thomas. 

In the break, I'm going to be interviewing a variety of people, asking them such questions as, why is society fascinated with the topic of crime, criminals, and prison? I'm also interested in speaking to former prisoners who didn't re-offend, to find out what path they followed and who they became as a result of their time in prison. These will be on all podcast platforms in the TFJ feed from next month. I'll also be back at the desk turning Season One into a book, and we'll keep you posted on its progress. Once again, thank you for listening. Please stay subscribed and tell your friends about Tales from The Jails.

During the three and a half years I was in prison I wrote over a million words by hand. Tales From The Jails is a contemporaneous account of my life, and attempts to thrive rather than merely survive, whilst incarcerated.

Most names have been changed. The events have not. 

This is a Jekyll & Pride production.

Producer: Trevessa Newton

Title Music taken from The Confession, on the album Crimes Against Poetry (written and performed by The Shadow Poet, produced by Lance Thomas)
