On March 28, 2020, I launched the Prison Officer Podcast with a simple but powerful mission: to bring recognition to the amazing people who perform one of society's most challenging and largely forgotten jobs behind the fences and walls of our prisons and jails.

Our Mission

Every day, correctional officers across the country step into environments that most people will never see or truly understand. They are the unsung heroes working tirelessly to maintain safety, provide security, and often serve as mentors, counselors, and sources of hope for those in their care. Yet their stories, their expertise, and their humanity often go unrecognized.

The Prison Officer Podcast exists to change that narrative.

What We Do

I sit down with industry leaders who are making a real difference in corrections – the officers, supervisors, administrators, and advocates who are transforming the field from within. Our conversations go beyond the headlines and Hollywood portrayals to reveal what it's truly like to work in corrections.

This isn't about the dramatized version of prison life you see in movies and television shows. This is about real people doing real work, facing real challenges, and making a real impact on both the staff, inmates, and their communities.

Why It Matters

Correctional officers deserve to have their voices heard. They deserve recognition for the complexity of their work, the skills they've developed, and the positive changes they're creating within the system. Through authentic conversations and genuine storytelling, we're working to bridge the gap between public perception and the reality of modern corrections.

Whether you're a fellow correctional professional, someone considering a career in the field, or simply curious about this vital but often misunderstood profession, the Prison Officer Podcast offers insights you won't find anywhere else.

Join me as I shine a light on the dedicated professionals who work behind the walls – because their stories matter, their work matters, and they matter.
