Ear Hustle

Ear Hustle brings you stories of life inside prison, shared and produced by those living it. The podcast is a member of the Radiotopia podcast network and a partnership between Nigel Poor, a Bay Area visual artist, and Earlonne Woods, currently incarcerated at San Quentin State Prison. It was co-founded with fellow inmate Antwan Williams.

Curtis Roberts was sentenced to 50 years to life, under the three strikes law, for committing three non-violent robberies. Over the years he has struggled to maintain a sense of hope in a situation many would consider untenable.

 

"... a fascinating, harrowing and also deeply entertaining look into life on the inside that runs the full gamut of emotions."
