  • Escape to Mexico, Underground Railroad South

    Escape to Mexico, Underground Railroad South
    Feb 9 2026

    While the Underground Railroad pointed north, there was another route to freedom—south into Mexico. After winning independence from Spain in 1821, Mexico passed what historians describe as radical antislavery laws, and Mexicans at every level of society were serious about enforcing them.

  • When Justice Got It Wrong: The wrongful convictions of Leighton Hay and Raymond Flanks

    When Justice Got It Wrong: The wrongful convictions of Leighton Hay and Raymond Flanks
    May 5 2025

    This episode is about time you can’t get back.
The silence of a prison cell when you know you don’t belong there.
A life put on pause—sometimes forever.
It’s about wrongful convictions. Men like Raymond Flanks, who spent nearly 40 years in prison for a murder he didn’t commit.
Men like Leighton Hay, just 19 when he was locked up for 12 years—because of a bad eyewitness and a bit of hair in a garbage bin.
