I'm fine

A frank conversation between Josie and Brenda about self-harm and suicidal thoughts.

鈥淚 used to think that people were really selfish to go and kill themselves, but I get it. The longer I spent time in that cell, it seemed like a great option.鈥 Brenda Birungi, AKA Lady Unchained.

Prison Bag is a family story. As the cell door slams on Josie Bevan鈥檚 husband Rob, windows open onto a community that was previously hidden in plain sight. One family鈥檚 frank and unflinching confrontation with the prison system.

Find out what happened when Rob was released in the follow up series Prison Break - a different kind of story where Josie meets people who challenge the way she thinks about prisons. Also available now on 麻豆社 Sounds.
