The Prison Show

The Prison Show

Every Friday night, former inmates and prisoners’ loved ones get together at KPFT in downtown Houston to create "The Prison Show", a program catered to prisoners and their families. The show keeps prisoners connected to the outside world and allows families to call in and leave messages for prisoners who are listening. In addition, the radio produces a show with live coverage whenever there is an execution in Texas, sometimes airing a prerecorded interview with the condemned prisoner as the State of Texas kills him. Since 1980, the show has shed light on the traumatic and destructive nature of the criminal justice system (even on people who are not behind bars), all the while humanizing prisoners and their loved ones.
