The murder of Robert Brooks in a New York prison motivated Scotto to reread Angela Y. Davis's Are Prison's Obsolete. The book made him think about the innacurate and pervase representation of prisons in American media and the ramifications of a draconian and racist criminal justice system. This episode includes discussions of the prison in Scotto's hometown, Orange Is the New Black, Oz, Goodfellas, The Sopranos, The Godfather, Guantanamo Bay, Trump, Obama, and much more.
