There is much talk around the school-to-prison pipeline and how "certain" children are marked at an early age. However, there's another pipeline at play, which is prison labor. More companies are turning to prisons to fill the void of labor shortages. Guest Francie Ekwerekwu joins the show provide some insight.

Terence and Lisa are both former athletes but have some varying perspectives. Have a listen!
