It's the 25th of December, 2016. Imagine waking up on Christmas morning with a person you only met a few months ago, not your partner or soulmate, but your pad mate, in HMP. I'm on top bunk and he's down below, two lives colliding. During the three and a half years I was in prison I wrote over a million words by hand. Tales From The Jails is a contemporaneous account of my life, and attempts to thrive rather than merely survive, whilst incarcerated.Most names have been changed. The events have not. This is a Jekyll & Pride production.Producer: Trevessa NewtonTitle Music taken from The Confession, on the album Crimes Against Poetry (written and performed by The Shadow Poet, produced by Lance Thomas)Copyright Jekyll & Pride Ltd 2025 @talesfromthejailspodcast@jekyllandpride2023@theshadowpoettsp
