About this listen

In both relative and absolute terms, the US imprisons more of its population than any other country on earth, and it pays a fortune to do so. This is neither normal nor inevitable. Eden and Andrew meet to dissect the fundamental issues and untangle how this came to be. From plea bargains to the war on drugs, and from racial discrimination to privatized prisons, there is no shortage of controversy in this passionate search of causes and solutions to this age-old problem of crime.
