This is a 20-minute teaser of my full conversation with Alex South, released as this month's bonus episode. Subscribe here to listen to the full discussion and all monthly bonus episodes.

Alex is the author of the incredible book, Behind These Doors. She worked for the prison service in England for 10 years in HMP Whitemoor, HMP Belmarsh and HMP Wormwood Scrubs. We talk about the impossible task of keeping on top of the contraband entering some prisons, the violence that occurs in prison, the dangers of Spice and drug psychosis, and the detrimental impact prison can have on people where prisoners and staff are taking their own lives.
