I'm Erlon Woods I'm Nigel Poor and we're the host of Ear Hustle. If anyone out there is hearing us for the first time Erlon

should we give them a quick primer? Of course our show is about the daily realities of life inside prison. We launched back in

2017 when I was still a resident of San Quentin State Prison. And I was a volunteer teacher.

We still tell a lot of stories from inside San Quentin,

but over the years, we've also expanded

to talk about life after prison,

and we've started telling stories from other prisons,

women's prisons and prisons across the country and the world.

Phew!

Yeah!

A resident of San Quentin.

Roland, I can hardly remember when you were.

It seems like a lifetime ago. I mean that shit, I still go in a lot and Nage we're here today because it's our final

countdown yep we are launching a new season of ear hustle and Erlon I'm sure you can hear it in my voice. I am positively

giddy. Indeed so we're gonna do a little game here. I've picked out a few clips from our

upcoming season.

So I'm a play-dees, and you can give our listeners

a taste of what's in store for them.

I love surprises.

Let's do it. I did nursing for a little while I committed crimes for a little while too.

Which one was more profitable?

Um, nursing.
