  • Growing Up On Death Row At 17 - Session 9 - Why Has The System Failed Me

    Send us a text

    The doors to freedom opened for Bryan Seddens in May of 2021. But because the last 31 years of his life had passed him by due to being incarcerated, there was a lot that he simply didn’t know. For instance: writing a check, paying his bills, catching a bus if needed. There are programs designed to help with the transition back to what we call normal society, but those programs let him down. With the help of his girlfriend Ceverlyn Jenkins (CJ), Bryan has found his way and is on the path to success. Listen to some of what he’s gone through on this episode of Growing Up On Death Row At 17.

    Send us a text

    Life is precious. Life is fleeting. Life is what one makes of it.  And if you put yourself in a situation where jail/prison is your reality, the life that you could have had, is gone. The person that you could have become is probably not going to happen. And after spending several years behind bars, watching others around him being  executed or dying, Bryan had time to reflect on some of the decisions that he made as a youngster that derailed his future. Hear his thoughts on this episode of Growing Up On Death Row At 17.

  • Growing Up On Death Row at 17 - Session 7 - Operation Booty Call

    Send us a text

    Prison is a lonely place and a world unto itself. What applies in the free world, is the opposite inside. And what normally is unappealing and uninviting, over time may cause your views to change – especially if you are sentenced to die in jail. Bryan explains the concept of Operation Booty Call and how in one minute you see a man, and the next, a celebrity lookalike in this latest session of Growing Up On Death Row At 17.

  • Growing Up On Death Row at 17 - Session 4 - LGBTQIA on the Yard

    Send us a text

    It is normal to yearn for love and affection, but prison is the last place where one looks to fulfill those needs especially surrounded by only men. However, when certain members of the LGBTQIA community were allowed to dress and look like women, it changed the way they were viewed. Sentenced to die in prison, Bryan had to deal with his own thoughts and desires but was able to overcome them by inflicting bodily harm to others and sometimes even himself. Listen to how he rose above it on this episode of Growing Up On Death Row At 17.

    Send us a text

    The word guard makes one think of protection and safety but if you’re in the corrections system, you learn it’s anything but. You’re about to be released from prison soon, looking forward to your new life of freedom and then a guard decides to test you. To avoid confrontation and time added to your sentence, you choose to walk barefoot in the snow back to your housing unit. That happened to Bryan during his 31-year stint in prison and you will hear that and more on this episode of Growing Up On Death Row At 17.

    Send us a text

    Freedom wasn't an easy transition for co-host Bryan Seddens and at times he wondered if it's what he wanted. In prison, your every move is planned for you from the time you wake up until the lights go out. Experiences that most people take for granted such as being in a  relationship or a simple walk in the park, were a new way of life for Bryan and he talks about how he's still adjusting to this very day.
