Mark Espanol shares his personal journey from his time in prison to present life. He explores how a local radio DJ and her show changed his life and we talk about what it was like to tell a very personal story in front of a crowd of strangers.  

We listen to a story Mark Espanol told at the Madison Moth StorySlam at the High Noon Saloon and explore the story behind the story. You can find Mark on Instagram @djspade718608. You can learn more about Odyssey Beyond Bars at https://odyssey.wisc.edu/beyondbars/.
