We recorded this episode in January, but it's just now coming to you because life is hard. And that's OK. "I think there is something in beers that I am slightly allergic to." - Erica "I've been having a lot of dreams about giving birth, which is just a lot." - Alyx Beer: Tangyland IPA (Sycamore Brewing) Poetry: "I Am Montana: Student Reflections on Identity and Place" (Free Verse Writing and Second Season, 2022) On Episode 47 of the pod, Erica brings the whimsy with the Tangyland IPA from Sycamore Brewing—a beer selected based on its colorful can—while Alyx brings the substance with readings from "I Am Montana," a book born out of the I Am Montana project. This project helps amplify lesser-heard voices, providing a platform for Montana's incarcerated youth to share their stories and counter the erasure of the prison system. We hope you are as moved by their stories as we are, and that this episode encourages you to think about incarceration and the prison system in a new way.
