Po svetu v tem trenutku v zaporih živi več kot 11 milijonov ljudi. Več kot 11 milijonov se jih torej srečuje s skrbjo za svoje temeljne pravice, ki bi morale biti kljub odvzemu svobode enake za vse.K ozaveščanju nanje prispevajo tudi zaporniški radii, poudarja Phil Maguire, direktor enega največjih in najuspešnejših, britanskega zaporniškega radia. Zelo skromen pri razkrivanju osebnosti, zato pa toliko bolj gostobeseden, ko pride do govora o njegovem življenjskem poslanstvu. Z njim se je na letošnjem novinarskem festivalu v sončni Perugii pogovarjala Neža Borkovič. Ker zaporniškega radia izven zidov zapora ne morete poslušati, je tukaj nekaj njihovih podcastov, ki jih v poslušanje priporoča Phil Maguire: The Secret Life of Prisons; Future Prison; The Forensic Psychology Podcast.
The Coronavirus pandemic led to many restrictions to all of our lives. For people in prison the restrictions were particlarly severe. The biggest impact was felt when all social visits were halted for many months, meaning people serving custodial sentences weren't able to see their families, friends and loved-ones in person. In response, the Prison Service introduced video calls. In this special episode, presenters Paula Harriott and Phil Maguire get the inside track on how this roll-out happened, what the impact was and what the future may hold for video call technology in prison. They're joined by: Dr Anna Kotova - Lecturer in Criminology at the School of Social Policy, University of Birmingham; Tracy O'Donnell - host of the Family and Friends Request Show on National Prison Radio, and mother of two sons in prison; Tim Lloyd - Head of Family Services at HM Prison and Probation Service. They also hear from Stephen, who was in prison during the height of the lockdown and describes how those calls worked from inside prison. Thanks to the University of Birmingham and the Sir Halley Stewart Trust for funding the research. This episode was recorded in April 2022.

Bill the bastard was arguably the toughest Australian Lighthorse in history. Good luck trying to ride him though. Today's episode I get a tad passionate about the plight of the Brumbies in the Victorian High Country , most of which have links to the heritage of Australian Lighthorse's . As I mention in the podcast , I am useless at legal jargon and politics , so I've decided to tell Bill's story instead. Because Bill is proof that these horses are not useless feral animals that need culling. A lot of the soldiers who attempted to stay on Bill for longer than a minute may have disagreed. But in the end Bill proved just because your a cranky bastard doesn't mean you don't have courage , strength .. and a massive heart. I could not have told his story with out this website https://billthebastard.org/ definitely check it out for more on Bill and the Australian Lighthorse legacy To help Phil Maguire and find out more about the fight to save our Brumbies please join the Facebook page Rural Resistance https://www.facebook.com/groups/585289412322451/ To donate to the legal fight https://www.paypal.me/loumag1061?fbclid=IwAR3UN0DrH_xkTu2206C2kBE_jfWKomCZs18edR4zqpitF483pBs4VAJ7J4I

This special episode of The Secret of Prisons was recorded live at the Longford Lecture at Church House, in London, on Thursday 21st November. The 2019 Longford Lecture was given by the former Metropolitan Police Commissioner Ian, Lord Blair of Boughton, to a packed audience. Lord Blair spoke to presenters Phil Maguire and Paula Harriot before speaking on stage, alongside the broadcaster Jon Snow, a Longford trustee and chair of the event. Lord Blair’s lecture implored all political parties in the election campaign to back a “systematic, holistic review” of the criminal justice system, which he argued was “not yet actually broken but it is so neglected as to be a matter of serious national concern.”

One of my weekly pleasures (introduced to me by Gregory Taylor) is the Vital Weekly newsletter. This is a weekly compendium of recent music releases (generally in the experimental/artsy area) with quick reviews, and it has a companion podcast that provides an ear on many of the works that it reviews. In a recent edition, they included a review of this week's guest - Phil Maguire - along with an excerpt from his 'Solo Computer Music' Verzimprint release, and I was quite taken. So, as I often do, I started diving deeper. I ran across his site, and got to hear a variety of his work. I also enjoyed an ATTN magazine session that included an interview with Phil drew me into his work in a very personal way. Of course, this led me to reach out, and the next thing you know - we've got a chat going! Phil is a super personable, interesting guy, and one that is willing to go from performance programming, to broken hardware, to detailed editing - and doesn't get bogged down with any orthodoxy on his way to expressing his voice. His description of his process points to his work finding the right way to produce his work. All-in-all, a great interview (marred by some recording difficulties on my end...) by a great artist, and an inspiration for anyone trying to find their voice among the millions of ways to do the work. Enjoy!
