The hype surrounding the end of the football season is perhaps one of the last things all Americans can unite behind...regardless of where you lay your head, or your political affiliation. A day we can all enjoy together and have some fun. 

Pre-show bonus clip included.

I posted a Bears Super Bowl Shuffle video on Twitter...check it out!

A series which takes a look at each of the 5 senses as it pertains to prison life.

Bobby describes what he sees on the 1st day he arrives at the Big House, how important sight is as an inmate - like having a human walker, plus a predator learns a painful lesson.

The episode about the sense of Smells is #99. Apple link: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/notes-from-the-pen-prison/id1518819034?i=1000536488398

Pulled from Ep #19 dated 2020: Bobby gets an early call out for a rare road trip to a local hospital for a CT scan. The experience is nothing like Bobby, or myself, expected and is a reminder of the psychological effects that extended prison sentences can have.

It's been 10 years since Bobby was locked up & as he's approaching his 12 year ERD (early release date), he can't help but notice time and how the older you get the faster it goes by...and...well...he's getting older. Mama c learns what LARPing is, and they both remind everyone to go out and find your "novelty"!
