Episode 131: Eastern State Penitentiary has a Ghost Dog
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week we're traveling to one of the world's first and most infamous penitentiaries (yes, penitentiary means prison and not insane asylum lol). This prison was built to be a haven of forgiveness through silence and isolation. But, instead it became home to overcrowding and some of America's most notorious criminals. It halls echoed not with reflective silence but the angst of isolation. And those echoes reverberate to this day as the cells and halls of Eastern State Penitentary seem to still harbor some of its inmates. This is one you won't want to miss!
