Each episode explores themes of friendship, resilience, systemic issues, and the unexpected humor found in the darkest places. Join them as they unravel their journey through the federal system, the impact of rehabilitation programs like RDAP, and navigate the complexities of life after incarceration. "Criminal Code: Our Story Behind Bars" isn't just a podcast; it's a lifeline of hope, laughter, and insight for anyone who's ever felt imprisoned, physically or metaphorically.
