The motto of the Aryan Brotherhood prison gang is “blood in, blood out."

During his 45 years in prison, Michael Thompson became one of the few people to leave the white supremacist gang alive — and to testify against it. But is Thompson a gentle soul trapped by a broken system, or, as his critics claim, a master manipulator who can’t be trusted?

Blood Memory, a new series from Love + Radio, grapples with that question. Winner of the Best Independent Nonfiction Audio Award at the 2025 Tribeca Festival.

The new season unfolds February 2. Subscribers can listen to the entire series a week early though, just sayin'.
