Greg Eskridge smiles as he walks out of prison, after 30 years of incarceration. Season 4 of Uncuffed will chronicle his re-entry, and continue to share stories from people inside prison.

Last summer, something monumental happened. One of our founding producers, Greg Eskridge, came home after more than 30 years in prison. In this episode we’ll bring you back to that emotional day last summer when he walked out of the San Quentin gates, free at last. This season follows Greg’s incredible journey as he figures out life on the outside. Along the way, we’ll also bring you the stories of producers incarcerated at San Quentin, Solano — and for the first time, ever — the California Institution for Women.

Our work in prisons is supported by the California Arts Council, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, independent foundations, and donations from listeners like you.
