Episode 46: The Christmas Boxes

Six cubic feet. That’s how much stuff each incarcerated person in California is allowed to have in his or her cell. The few personal objects you keep with you in prison are precious. But what’s left behind can be just as meaningful, as relics of a former life.

Thanks to Joseph Krauter, Carmela Frank, and Tyra Woodson for being in this episode. And thanks to LaVelma Byrd, Kerry Roberts, Terry Matthews, and Shawn for calling us with the lists of objects they have inside.

This episode was scored with music by Antwan Williams and David Jassy.

As always, thanks to Lt. Sam Robinson and Acting Warden Ron Broomfield for their support of the show.
