Hello, my name is Patrick Persley. I spent 23 years in prison for a crime I didn't commit.

I've been out almost seven months. Since I've been out, I'm started IMKidculture.org,

try to help at-risk youth, survive the trap, empower at-risk youth, and reduce gun and gang violence,

and promote higher education.

You're listening to Actual Innocence, a podcast spreading awareness of wrongful convictions

and issues in the justice system. I'm Brooke, and I'm here with my co-host, DeMarco.

How are you doing this week? Fabulous.

What's the weather like there right now? Oh, the weather is cold.

It's very windy, cold wind too.

We actually had, it's like 50 here today, and that's the warmest we've had since I can remember.

Yeah, we haven't had any snow, but that wind, ooh, that wind chill, it's cold.

We have two sponsors today.

One is new. It's Pitney Bowes and the other is RX Bar.

Pitney Bowes is the industry leader in mailing and shipping solutions. No matter what you send or how often,

Pitney Bowes has the solution that precisely fits your needs.

Wait, print, mail, and save. You and your business will save time and money when you print posters and you won't need to wait in line at the post office anymore. You also won't need to

worry about putting the correct amount of posters on your letter or package. I went to the

post office last week and I timed it and I waited in line for 25 minutes.

Effective January 21st, the United States Postal Service mailing and shipping costs are going to go up.

But you'll save three cents per letter with a Pitney Bow solution.

These discounts are not available at the post office.

Be the increase.
