The Sit Down: I Used To Listen To Radio In My Cell, Now I’m On It | Ali Abdi

Before going inside, Ali never thought he’d end up working in radio. But, after taking an interest in National Prison Radio, he eventually started working for the station while inside. Now, Ali works as a producer and presenter for NPR but on the outside. Here he talks about how his listeners shape his show, what he’s learned since joining the station and what he gets out of having a creative job.This podcast is also available as a video – just search Life After Prison on YouTube.Useful organisations:Only ConnectShannon TrustNovusSeven Three OneContact us:If anything you’ve heard in this podcast has inspired you to make a positive change in your life, or you’d just like to get in touch, please contact us.💬 DM us: @afterprisonpod on Instagram and Twitter📧 Email us: [email protected]✉️ Write to us: Life After Prison, National Prison Radio, HMP Brixton, London SW2 5XF🖥️ Website: https://lifeafterprisonpod.com/ Hosted on Acast.
