Podcasts about women in prison

This week's pick is the 1976 pirate/blaxploitation/women in prison film the Muthers. A female pirate leader infiltrates a coffee plantation fronting as a women's prison to rescue her kidnapped sister. Mild action and boobs scenes commence.

Adam's Paternity Leave plods along, so we'll drop one discussing one of the most memorable episodes in series history. Patreon payments are frozen for the time being. A few resourceful new Munchies have figured out a work-around where you can join as a free member and upgrade from there to a paid account which charges you for one month and unlocks the back catalog behind the respective tier of the paywall. After that first payment, you won't be charged again until we're dropping new content (which we'll warn everyone is coming), so if you want more of this it can be had, along with access to the fully uncut episodes from 100 to present and Movie Club episodes.We got to watch an all-time Law & Order: SVU ("Undercover" Season 9, Episode 15) which sees Olivia Benson go undercover in a notorious women's prison in order to catch a serial rapist corrections officer. Along the way, we discuss the proper way to light an upskirt be-ankled panties shot, ‘90s nepotism star Barry Van Dyke, and the meaning of the phrase "iron kitten." We also talk about a few of the more famous residents of New York State's Bedford Hills Correctional Facility For Women. This is one of the standout episodes of the entire series, and though it mostly deals in shocking trauma, the writers and producers of this wonderful show found ways to sprinkle in lighthearted dick jokes throughout this heart-pounding hour of television.

Send us a textWe are celebrating SXSW 2025 with two short documentary films about big topics.Red Sands shares the story of an off-road culture that thrives along the notorious border of El Paso, Texas, and Cd. Juárez, Mexico. Director Romina Cenisio and cinematographer/producer (and returning guest!) Sean Mattison join us to discuss showing a different side of border towns that include levity and joy, Romina bringing a woman's perspective to the story, and the difference between real dangers and perceived dangers within this community.Exodus shares a portrait of two women as they struggle to make sense of their lives post-release, in order to figure out what life after prison looks like. Director Nimco Sheikhaden and producer Sara Chishti share their decision (and its profound impact) to shoot in black and white, how Nimco's partner being incarcerated drove her to tell this story, the noticeable lack of support for black and brown women in prison, and their hope that this film prompts further  conversations and empathy.Follow director Romina Cenisio on IGFollow cinematographer/producer Sean Mattison on IGFollow short film Exodus on IGFollow director Nimco Sheikhaden on IGFollow producer Sara Chishti on IGThis episode is co-hosted by John Wildman of Films Gone WildAudio produced by Jeff Hunt of Storied: SFSupport the showThanks for listening and for your support!

Maine's transgender policies have cast the state into an unwelcome national spotlight, creating ripple effects that reach from schoolyards to prison cells and ultimately into living rooms of everyday families like mine. The federal government recently pulled $1.5 million in funding from Maine's Department of Corrections over its policy allowing transgender inmates to be housed according to their gender identity rather than biological sex.At the center of this controversy is a biological male who murdered his parents, now identifying as female and housed in a women's prison. Attorney General Pam Bondi made the federal government's position clear: "We will protect women in prison. We will protect women in sports. We will protect women throughout this country." Meanwhile, Maine's governor – ironically, the state's first female governor – continues implementing policies that fail to protect women and girls.What makes this policy debate personal for me is how it directly impacts my family. My brother, who has spent over ten years incarcerated and is nearing release, was set to receive four months in a halfway house to help him transition back to society. Due to these funding cuts, his prison sentence has been extended, and his rehabilitation program cut in half. The harsh reality: political decisions about gender identity are having real-world consequences for rehabilitation programs designed to help people rebuild their lives.The situation mirrors broader concerns throughout the state, including reports that dozens of Maine schools are hiding students' gender plans from parents. When policies prioritize ideology over practical considerations about safety, security, and family involvement, vulnerable populations often pay the price – whether they're women in prisons, girls in sports, or inmates seeking rehabilitation. I firmly support protecting women's safety and opportunities.If you found value in today's show please return the favor and leave a positive review and share it with someone important to you! https://www.sharethestrugglepodcast.com/reviews/new/Find all you need to know about the show https://www.sharethestrugglepodcast.com/Official Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100077724159859Join the 2% of Americans that Buy American and support American Together we can bring back American Manufacturing https://www.loudproudamerican.shop/Loud Proud American Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LoudproudamericanLoud Proud American Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/loud_proud_american/Loud Proud American TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@loud_proud_americanLoud Proud American YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmYQtOt6KVURuySWYQ2GWtwThank you for Supporting My American Dream!

One manifesto pledge of the incoming Labour government was to provide over 3000 new nurseries in empty school classrooms in England. The first 300 of these will open by September and offer an average of 20 places each. Nuala McGovern speaks to Bridget Phillipson, Secretary of State for Education, about this announcement and also about the current state of provision and funding for children with special education needs.Darkly funny, unsettling, and razor-sharp, I Hope You're Happy by Marni Appleton is a haunting collection of short stories exploring modern womanhood through the lens of horror and satire. From viral photos to eerie performances in dead-end jobs, these stories capture the weirdness of millennial life... where power struggles, fleeting connections, and social media anxieties collide with the surreal. Marni joined Nuala to discuss the themes and her inspiration.A new exhibition called Curious Cures at Cambridge University Library explores medicine in the medieval era. Dozens of unique medical manuscripts, recipes, cures and guides to healthy living from the 14th and 15th centuries are on display. To discuss women's role in medieval medicine, Nuala was joined by the exhibition's curator and medieval manuscripts specialist, Dr James Freeman.The Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood believes “prison isn't working” for women and wants to reduce the number of female prisoners. Nuala speaks to Scarlett Roberts, a former prisoner and is now a Churchill Fellow and to former prisoner Jules Rowan, who co-hosts the Life After Prison podcast. They are joined by former prisoner officer and former Head of Security and Operations at HMP Wormwood Scrubs Vanessa Frake-Harris, and by prison Intelligence Analyst, author of Five by Five, Claire Wilson and Lucy Russell, Head of Policy and Public Affairs at the charity Women in Prison. The Neonatal Care Act starts tomorrow. It allows employed parents to take up to 12 weeks of additional leave on top of their maternity or paternity leave if their newborn baby stays in hospital for more than seven days. We hear from Catriona Ogilvy, founder of premature baby charity The Smallest Things, who has been fighting for this law change for 10 years.Echo vom Eierstock is Switzerland's first feminist yodelling choir. Elena Kaiser is their founder and joined Nuala to discuss where her love of yodelling came from, and why she is challenging the make-up of traditional yodelling choirs and songs.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Annette Wells Editor: Emma Pearce

The Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood believes “prison isn't working” for women and wants to reduce the number of female prisoners. So what has gone wrong? Nuala McGovern speaks to Scarlett Roberts who is a former prisoner and is now a Churchill Fellow and to former prisoner Jules Rowan, now a personal trainer, who co-hosts the Life After Prison podcast. They are joined by former prisoner officer and former Head of Security and Operations at HMP Wormwood Scrubs Vanessa Frake-Harris, and by prison Intelligence Analyst and author of Five by Five, Claire Wilson. And Lucy Russell, Head of Policy and Public Affairs at the charity Women in Prison, describes the challenges faced by women in prison today.What can be done to improve the prison system for women? Nuala speaks to justice system reformer Lady Edwina Grosvenor about her pioneering project Hope Street in Southampton, which aims to keep women in criminal justice system out of jail and with their children and to Alex Davies Jones MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Ministry of Justice about the Government's plans to tackle the issue of women's prisons.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Laura Northedge

On this week's Doin Time, Marisa brings us an interview with  Lee Carnie, Director of Policy and Advocacy at the Federation of Community Legal Centres. They speak to us about the expansion of draconian police powers impacting marginalised communities.We then hear from Nina from Flat Out, who shared her thoughts on the snap action regarding bail laws, and discussed her lived experience representing women in prison. We also played some audio of her speech from the snap action. Marisa also spoke with David Glanz, who was one of the Rally organizers for the 19 March Rally at Parliament over protest laws. David reported on the events of the rally.

Content warning: baby loss "When a court sentences a pregnant woman to prison, they sentence her to a high risk pregnancy" There are hundreds of pregnant women in UK prisons - a third of them yet to actually be convicted of a crime. Babies born to women in prison are 7x more likely to be stillborn than the norm. In recent years, two babies died when their incarcerated mothers went into labour and their calls for help were ignored. Last month, harrowing stories emerged of women at HMP Bronzefield being unlawfully handcuffed to male officers during childbirth. Media Storm asks: will prison ever be a safe place to be pregnant? And if not, does the media care? And why, when debating this issue, did one LBC presenter get fixated on lamb chops?! (19:25) Plus, Helena delves into far more detail than anybody asked for when talking about the EastEnders storyline which saw the iconic character Sonia Fowler pregnant in prison - an example of pop culture's influence on real-life issues. Joining Media Storm this week is co-director of gender justice group Level Up, Janey Starling, and 'Anna' - co-founder of the Level Up campaign No Births Behind Bars, who was first sent to prison when 6 months pregnant.

Listen up, #PrisonMarch is back this week for more of Prison MarcH 2: Second Offense! This week's women-in-prison movie released by New World Pictures is 1972's THE BIG BIRD CAGE written and directed by Jack Hill and starring NWPP favorites Pam Grier, Sid Haig, and Vic Diaz. Returning again for the fifth time to dish out her thoughts on this flick is the fantastic Ali Davis! You may remember Ali from one of her four previous episodes with the New World Pictures Podcast such as COVER GIRL MODELS, GODZILLA 1985, TEH FUNNY FARM, and UP FROM THE DEPTHS. THE BIG BIRD CAGE serves time as a non-sequel follow up to THE BIG DOLL HOUSE, only this time with significantly less Lambanog! This time around, Hill delivers on everything you might expect from a film like this given the title, plus a plan to free the inmates of a local women's prison so they can offer companionship to some local rebels! It's the women-in-prison and revolution crossover you've been waiting for, unless you've been waiting for one with lots of birds in it! In that case, you might be in for a surprise!  In this episode we will discuss the musical stylings of Pam and Sid on and off screen, the durability of a bamboo Prison, and, most importantly, the team bravely attempts to crunch the numbers on a titty count in this over the top episode you won't want to miss!

That's right, #PrisonMarch is back for Prison Marc H 2: Second Offense! Once more, we plumb the depths of the women-in-prison movies released by New World Pictures, this time with an Italian knock-off created after New World's THE BIG DOLL HOUSE became a huge success! Yes, plenty of studios were making knock-offs by 1973, but only Roger Corman would popularize a subgenre and then also release a knock-off of the very thing he popularized! Returning to discuss this Italian version of a Corman movie with us is Chris Iannacone from the Get Me Another podcast, who previously joined us for the Italian-produced LADY FRANKENSTEIN. Lucky for us, Chris has been preparing for this episode FOR YEARS! We will discuss this wild tale in our usual NWPP manner: by piecing together the story from the reassembled footage Roger had put together for its American release. Did Sister Maria do a good job rehabilitating the girls? How important is it to know someone with a circular indoor pool? How cool is Jeff? And what's the biggest thing you've ever slept through? We dive into it ALL! Join us and become one our NWPPVIPs, the only listeners we will bury.

Send us a textHow do we ensure kindness and justice in a prison system not designed with women in mind? Join us for a compelling episode where we welcome Colleen Bell, chair of the Ostara Initiative's board of directors, as she reveals the stark realities and urgent needs of incarcerated mothers. Discover the transformative work Ostara is doing to challenge inhumane practices like shackling during labor and high rates of C-sections, setting new standards for maternal and child health within prisons. Colleen shares inspiring stories of change from Minnesota to Alabama's Tutwiler Prison, highlighting advancements in lactation support that not only benefit mothers and babies but also offer financial advantages for states willing to embrace such reforms.In a thought-provoking discussion, we illuminate the vital role of doulas who provide crucial emotional and physical support to pregnant women in prison, empowering them amidst systemic failures. Distinguishing the essential contributions of doulas from midwives and OBGYNs, we confront misconceptions about the adequacy of prison healthcare and spotlight the unique challenges faced by women in a system primarily designed for men. We also tackle broader issues such as societal neglect of the root causes of women's incarceration, from trauma to survival crimes, asking tough questions about the humanity and effectiveness of our current penal system. Don't miss this episode as we advocate for transformative change in pursuit of kindness and justice.

The first day of President Trump's administration, the outright attacks on the transgender community began. A drove of extreme executive orders has ruthlessly targeted transgender individuals' safety and wellbeing. Chris Geidner, author of Law Dork, sits down to talk with us about these heinous assaults, their already-felt impacts on transgender individuals, and what to expect in the near future.The Trump administration's collection of executive orders includes those that place rigid definitions on the term “sex” and force transgender women in prison to be housed in men's facilities, ban transgender women from competing in women's sports, declare transgender individuals unfit for military service, and prevent transgender children from accessing gender-affirming care. Multiple lawsuits have already arisen that challenge the initial executive order, which largely erases and others the transgender community. Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

Women in prison are resorting to self-harm because of “astonishing gaps” in basic services including strict time limits when contacting their children, according to a new report from His Majesty's Inspectorate of Prisons for England and Wales released today. The report's author Sandra Fieldhouse joins Anita Rani, as does the Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice Shabana Mahmood. Singer and stand-up comedian Hajar J Woodland joins Anita to discuss her show, First Love, coming to Soho Theatre in London. After being raised in a household where singing wasn't encouraged, her show explores the boundaries we put up around ourselves and what it means to finally find love and your voice. New research has quantified for the first time how many young people have been diagnosed with gender dysphoria by GPs in England. Academics at the University of York studied a decade's worth of NHS records and discovered a 50-fold increase in this particular diagnosis between 2011 and 2021. However each general practice will only see one or two such patients each year. Anita speaks to Professor of Health Policy Tim Doran.The French have been told to wear the same T-shirt for five days before washing it, and sports clothing three times. It's part of advice from the government's Ecological Transition Agency, which is trying to get people to do less laundry to save water. So how often should we really be washing our clothes? Anita is joined by Professor Sally Bloomfield from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine to tell us more. Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Emma Pearce

On this episode of Girl Stop Playin'. I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Pam, who's done some serious work on a topic that many of us can relate to, whether we want to admit it or not—the “mother wound.” Now listen, I've shared bits of my own journey with my momma, and let me tell you, this conversation hit different. Dr. Pam breaks down how the dynamics between mothers and daughters can shape us in ways we may not even realize until we grow up and start navigating life on our own.Dr. Pam's seen it all—from women in prison who experienced deep, severe trauma introduced by their mothers, to high-powered professionals who dealt with more subtle forms of emotional neglect. It's wild how this mother-daughter thing shows up in so many different ways, but the impact? It's real, and it can stick with us for a long time. She even wrote a whole book about it called Surviving Mama—and trust me, this conversation is a must-listen.We got into how, as daughters, we don't always start seeing our moms as the flawed, complicated women they are until we grow up, get married, or become moms ourselves. That's when the real work begins. And y'all already know I don't hold back, so I shared how my own mom used to say, “I love you, but I don't like you”—which was a LOT to handle growing up. But now, as an adult, I've gained perspective and realized just how deep those scars can go.Dr. Pam dropped so much wisdom about the healing process, and how it's not about blaming our moms, but about understanding the cycles of emotional immaturity and dysfunction we've normalized. She also shed light on how unresolved issues with our moms can bleed into sibling relationships—something I know all too well.The biggest takeaway? Healing is possible, but it starts with awareness and giving ourselves grace. We've gotta face these wounds, process them, and move forward with intention. This conversation was a reminder that we are not alone in these struggles, and we have the power to heal. So sis, if you're dealing with your own mother wounds, know that you don't have to carry that weight forever.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/girlstopplayin/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

On the latest episode of the Woman Alive podcast we're asking if women in prison is having a negative impact on society. With women being the main caregivers, should offenders be treated differently to men? Is Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood right to have the 'ultimate ambition' to close women's prisons in the UK? Rev Tracy Sickel is a prison chaplain who has worked in prisons for 15 years. She currently operates in three women's prisons and is also CEO of Imago Dei which helps female inmates process trauma, abuse and low self-esteem. Catherine De Souza is the CEO of Prison Fellowship England & Wales. She's also a justice advocate, Elim Pentecostal minister and a trustee of Tearfund. She has a background in church leadership, prison ministries and is passionate about caring for the marginalised.

Women are responsible for only 10 per cent of homicides in Australia, Canada, England, and the US, and because it’s such a small sample size not much research has been done into the motives and behaviours that drive female killers. Dr. Kathryn M. Whiteley, a feminist criminologist, has been researching women who kill for over 20 years. She’s spoken to hundreds of women behind bars, many of whom are serving life sentences with no chance of parole. Dr. Whiteley’s focus is on telling their stories and understanding their experiences and perspectives in their own words.

In this episode we look back to 2023's Motherhood in the Justice System Series when we explored the issues and challenges mothers in the justice system face, and what needs to change. Maternal health was a key feature in the series including a focus on experiences of pregnancy, birth and the post-natal period. In this episode we bring together the voices of two guests in this series. Dr Laura Abbott is a registered midwife and Associate Professor in Research at The University of Hertfordshire, who has extensively researched women's experiences of pregnancy in criminal justice settings. We also hear from Dr Miranda Davies who leads prisoner health research at the Nuffield Trust - this body of work is the first time routine hospital data at a national level has been used to describe how often prisoners use hospital services and for what reasons. Please note this episode contains discussion of traumatic births and infant mortality that some listeners may find upsetting.

"Prison isn't working" for women, according to Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood.     She told the Labour Party conference that after serving a short custodial sentence, women are more likely to reoffend than those given a non-custodial sentence. Women are also less likely to get a job after leaving jail than men.    As the government launches an inquiry into reoffending rates, Niall is joined by Sky's home editor Jason Farrell who has visited a women's jail to see what conditions are like, and hears from former inmate turned researcher Scarlett Roberts about her experience of rehabilitation in prison.  In response to Jason's reporting, Lord Chancellor and Justice Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, said:   "For many women, prison isn't working. Most women in prisons are victims themselves. Over half are mothers, with a prison sentence separating parent and child.     “That's why I am establishing a new Women's Justice Board, tasked with reducing the number of women in prison by exploring alternatives to custody for female offenders.”     Podcast Producer: Emma Rae Woodhouse  Editor: Paul Stanworth

How are victims of intimate partner violence meant to protect themselves—and, often, their children—without winding up dead, in hospital, or prison? It's a situation that many find themselves in. Approximately 15 percent of women in the United States are victims of intimate partner violence, according to the National Domestic Violence Hotline. But the legal system is not set up to help them. In this episode the executive director of the Stanford Criminal Justice Center, Debbie Mukamal, and Stanford Law student Jacqueline Lewittes join Pam and Rich to discuss the Center's new study “Fatal Peril: Unheard Stories from the IPV-to-Prison Pipeline and Other Stories Touched by Violence,” that offers groundbreaking data and personal stories from women currently in prison because of intimate partner violence. They also touch on the systemic failures in the justice system in handling these complex cases.  Connect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/XLinks:Debbie Mukamal  >>> Stanford Law School PageFatal Peril: Unheard Stories from the IPV-to-Prison Pipeline >>> Stanford Law School Page(00:00:00) Chapter 1: Introductions and Goals of the Research Hosts Pam Karlan and Rich Ford discuss how the project on women incarcerated for killing their abusers began during the pandemic, sparked by a lack of national data on these cases with Debbie Mukamal and SLS student Jacqueline Lewittes. Mukamal explains how her team's long-standing relationships with the California Department of Corrections facilitated their research access despite COVID-19 restrictions.(00:04:12) Chapter 2: Research Design and Challenges The team outlines the complexities of designing the study, including broadening the focus beyond intimate partner killings and overcoming barriers like accessing reliable court records. They explain how they relied on direct interviews and used validated tools like the Danger Assessment and Composite Abuse Scale to assess the severity of abuse.(00:08:42) Chapter 3: Striking Findings and Legal Implications Explore key findings, including the prevalence of traumatic brain injuries among respondents and the failure of self-defense laws to protect abused women. Jacqueline highlights a specific case that illustrates how memory loss due to abuse complicates self-defense claims, underscoring the systemic legal failures.(00:18:30) Chapter 4: The Role of Intimate Partner Violence in Homicide CasesThe group delves into the startling statistics of women convicted of homicide in connection to intimate partner violence. Debbie Mukamal discusses how nearly 74% of women in their study had experienced abuse at the time of the offense, breaking down the subcategories of cases, from those who killed their abuser to others involving child fatalities.(00:21:25) Chapter 5: Systemic Failures in Protecting Abuse VictimsExamine the various ways in which the legal system fails to protect women who are victims of abuse. From denied protective orders to mistreatment by police and ineffective legal defense, the discussion highlights the failures at multiple levels and the resulting harsh sentences.(00:23:55) Chapter 6: Law Reform and the Impact of Trauma on Legal CulpabilityThis segment focuses on potential legal reforms, including changes to homicide statutes and the need for better understanding of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in abuse survivors. Debbie Mukamal and Pam Karlan discuss the implications of TBI on a woman's ability to recall facts, and how reforms could better account for their experiences.

They strongly deny the charges against them.

The master of all unlikeable well known Democratic women is of course Hillary Clinton. But then of course, there are the likes of Kamala Harris. I will share with you six theories on why I believe these women and nationally known Democratic women like them are so uniquely unlikable. What does God's Word say? Proverbs 26:23-28 23 Like a coating of silver dross on earthenware    are fervent lips with an evil heart.24 Enemies disguise themselves with their lips,    but in their hearts they harbor deceit.25 Though their speech is charming, do not believe them,    for seven abominations fill their hearts.26 Their malice may be concealed by deception,    but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.27 Whoever digs a pit will fall into it;    if someone rolls a stone, it will roll back on them.28 A lying tongue hates those it hurts,    and a flattering mouth works ruin.John 1:8-108 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.Romans 3:13 ESV  “Their throat is an open grave; they use their tongues to deceive.” “The venom of asps is under their lips.”Episode 1,601 Links:Hillary's Hissy Fit: An Unexpected Outburst From Mrs ClintonSen Benghazi Hrg:Clinton-Difference Does It MakeSusan Rice, a hateful disciple of Hillary ClintonKAMALA: "You need to kick that f**king door down!
