  • How Alabama Prisons Profit From Inmates
    Mar 5 2026

    Alabama’s prison system isn’t just about punishment—it’s a business model. In this episode, we expose how incarceration generates revenue through inmate labor, phone calls, commissary fees, healthcare contracts, and hidden deductions that funnel money out of the poorest communities in the state.

    We break down who profits, how the incentives work, and why financial exploitation is baked into daily prison operations—often at the expense of safety, rehabilitation, and public accountability. This is a clear-eyed look at the economics of mass incarceration in Alabama and what it means for incarcerated people, their families, and taxpayers.

  • The Billion-Dollar Prison Healthcare Shell Game
    Feb 26 2026

    This episode pulls back the curtain on Alabama’s prison healthcare system, where billions in public funds flow through private medical contracts—yet incarcerated people report delayed treatment, denied medications, and preventable deaths. We examine how outsourcing care creates layers of deniability, shields decision-makers from accountability, and shifts costs without improving outcomes.

    The Billion-Dollar Prison Healthcare Shell Game connects lawsuits, budget data, and lived experience to ask a direct question: when healthcare becomes a contract instead of a duty, who is actually being served—and who is being sacrificed?

  • Alabama’s $450 Million Forced Labor Scheme
    Feb 23 2026

    This episode investigates how Alabama’s prison labor system generates hundreds of millions of dollars while the people doing the work earn little to nothing. We unpack the structure behind so-called “voluntary” labor, the role of state agencies and private contractors, and how parole decisions, disciplinary threats, and economic coercion keep the system running.

    Alabama’s $450 Million Forced Labor Scheme connects policy, profit, and power—examining whether this model serves public safety or perpetuates exploitation, and why accountability has lagged despite mounting legal and ethical challenges.
