Welcome to episode 26! This week your hosts do a deep dive into the prison education system. Chelsea talks about the history of educational opportunities for incarcerated people in the U.S., and Katie discusses what the education system in Ohio has to offer for those imprisoned. While there is much work to be done in terms of prison reform in this country, steps are slowing (finally!) being taken to help ensure access to education for incarcerated persons. Katie shares her disappointment in the outlet mall stores not being true outlet stores, and Chelsea talks pyrotechnics.
