EP #30 - Trouble In Paradise; Short Calls With Bobby, And Guest Host Blaze

Today we get to hear Bobby explain how the Michigan Department Of Corrections punishes inmates for not showing up for slave labor, even when they don't tell you where you're supposed to go to perform that slave labor. Argh...it's another example of the failed mass incarceration system that most on the outside don't even know about. Issuing punishment tickets (LOP) for minor infractions - including their slave pits!  Since Bobby is on LOP (Loss Of Privileges) Jeremy talks with Blaze, as Blaze reads a letter, that he wrote on behalf of another inmate, addressing a large unused field on the prison yard. I mute the inmate's name a few times because Blaze refers to him using his government name.  You can read more about Bobby and prison reform on our website:  notesfromthepen.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/NotesFromThePen You can also find us on the following podcast platforms: Anchor Apple Podcasts Breaker Google Podcasts Radio Public Spotify For those who’ve asked about helping with donations, please go to our website above for more info.
