Prison, Parole, and Brent McCall – A Conversation with Carlos Rebollo

Michael sits down with Carlos Rebollo, who served 24 years in prison after being incarcerated at just 15 years old. Now a successful entrepreneur with his own hair braiding business and a public speaker, Carlos shares his experiences with the prison system, the challenges of parole, and his perspective on Brent McCall. He also discusses his journey of reintegration into society and his role in the HBO documentary Nature of the Crime. This episode provides an eye-opening look at life after incarceration and the realities of criminal justice reform.

Michael Leibowitz, host of The Rational Egoist podcast, is a philosopher and political activist who draws inspiration from Ayn Rand’s philosophy, advocating for reason, rational self-interest, and individualism. His journey from a 25-year prison sentence to a prominent voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities highlights the transformative impact of embracing these principles. Leibowitz actively participates in political debates and produces content aimed at promoting individual rights and freedoms. He is the co-author of “Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime” and “View from a Cage: From Convict to Crusader for Liberty,” which explore societal issues and his personal evolution through Rand’s teachings.
