Notes From The Pen

Breaking down the stereotypes of drug addicts. The creative writing piece Bobby has been working on - The Clinic - is nearing the end of edits. The Clinic is about the tumultuous dance between a drug addict and the cold embrace of a meth clinic (and everything in-between). A true love-hate relationship. It starts out at a meth clinic in South Florida - the waiting room for rock bottom...and ends up at one of the most magical places on earth - The Mouse. The road to get there, and the ending, is anything but enchanting.

Co-host JD is on a well deserved 2 week vacation with the family, yard closures, and the prison phone system sucks, so we're using an oldie but goodie throwback this week. We'll be back on schedule soon.

Is there a purpose to all of this? Why are we here?

Questions Bobby and Co-host Cousin Greg tackle as they discuss the meaning of the universe, the definition of God, the importance of love, and why we're here.

An episode that everyone should hear because it will cause you to re-think spirituality and our existence.

EP #42 - Stanhope is the reason for an increase of international followers of our podcast, he's an artist and not writing bits as much as releasing steam. Plus, prison food is loaded with so much sodium Bobby can salt the entire state for the winter, Asian stereotypes, and drunk dialing for a Korean dad.

Bobby is moving forward with working on his stand-up comedy routine; defining what a stand-up artist really is, and the viral Comedians In Prison piece he wrote shortly after arriving in prison. If you haven't read it yet...you're a loser! Just google COMEDIANS IN PRISON.

JD, and America's favorite convict Bobby, discuss logic and reason behind prison walls...or the lack thereof. It brings to mind the movie Idiocracy.

Well there's this blizzard thing going out throughout the Midwest and Northeast right now making it pretty hard for lots of people...including Bobby and the prison. No yard time because there's too much snow, and below freezing temps. No yard time means no phone time, so this week I pulled over a few edited clips from some of the more memorable episodes that are on the lighter side. Please stay safe and warm out there.

In prison it's especially important to find ways to deal with all the chaos and tragedy that comes with living behind bars. For Bobby it's with humor and helping others. In this episode he talks about prison humor, and stoking the embers of humanity in a place that doesn't know how to address the failures of their own system. Even when faced with some of the most heartbreaking issues, Bobby still finds a way to not only help others, but to remind us all how to look for the good...and along the way crack a joke or two.
