Started with ‘Cellies’ and was hooked immediately. Time feels so weird after hearing stories of people that have been incarcerated for decades. Much gratitude from the Netherlands for sharing this perspective. Nigel, Earlonne and the whole Earhustle team: the sounds and the feels you create are...Read full review »

An outstanding show. It stings to have supported EH from the very first show and then be shut out unless you pay. I know your brequest is reasonable and necessary. It still feels like a huge loss. Remarkable show.

I love this podcast! I recently found it and have been hooked ever since. I love how these stories aren’t centered on the crime but surrounds the people! Big ups to all that have been freed, especially Earlonne! Keep doing what y’all doin!

Simply put, this podcast has really educated me about life in prison but more importantly that I had way too many misconceptions and stereotypes about the people in prisons. It has made me a better person. I now try to be someone who sees people for who they are and can be rather than for what...Read full review »

Deeply human, compelling, funny, engaging, insightful, challenging, complex, and humanizing. Worth the download, and the time to listen. And listening to the arc as storytellers are released and transition to civilian life? Heart-expanding. Thank you for giving me so many people to root for in a...Read full review »

This show is one of my absolute favorites. Nigel and Earlonne are great storytellers and have a strong, respectful friendship with their conversations building off each other. Ear Hustle tells intimate stories related to San Quentin without being exploitative. They’re sincere, genuine, and just...Read full review »

Everyone should listen to this podcast, it sheds light on the prison system and gives you an amazing perspective on incarcerated individuals
veteran podcast listener via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/24
I’ve listened for a long time and it just gets better. This most recent episode ‘Moms’ May 2024 broke my heart in a way I just wasn’t expecting. In a world where the black and whites are so stark, Ear Hustle revels in the grey areas with such a big heart. I can’t recommend it highly enough...Read full review »

Since the conception of the show I’ve been a faithful listener. Being a former inmate in North Carolina, I can relate to most of not all topics and have learned how society looks at formally incarcerated individuals. Erlon and Nigel are a great duo and I hope EarHustle last forever!!! Keep up the...Read full review »

Nigel and Erlon are a great pair. Even though Nigel stands out like a sore thumb, she radiates comfortability, so that makes others comfortable to speak with her. Some of the stories are so intimate others are just kind of funny. Truly a great show.

Nigel, Earlonne and crew. This podcast is a beautiful experience, one episode at a time..

You are planting...Read full review »

I just found this show and I love it! It is so real! I love how the hosts disarm inmates when they are feeling nervous about a certain subject, such as with Metro and his objects in “Hope Laquer”. I highly recommend this podcast!
Toughchick128 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/18/24
Been listening to this show since the beginning and I just learned how to leave a comment lol. Keep killing it guys. Love how you’re showing a different side of the Prison system. These inmates are people too and they all have different stories. Again, keep up the great work!

I’ve been listening to this podcast, and so very beginning. If you have a loved one, who’s been to Saint Quentin, it’s even more insightful. The last couple seasons, they have showcase, incarcerated women, and I really appreciate that!

Thank you for such beautifully produced, honest, and heartfelt shows. I am not incarcerated, nor have I ever known anyone in prison, but I thoroughly enjoy hearing the stories of people whose voices we don’t normally get to hear. Keep cranking it out!

I heard a short ad for this podcast on another. I was listening to and I subscribed immediately. My third husband – I know that’s a little excessive but I was a kid of the 60s – had been in Folsom prison for 12 years. This show gives me great insight into his life before our marriage.

I have enjoyed Ear Hustle since the beginning. (Snap Judgement *might* have been the pod that pointed me to Ear Hustle.) This week’s episode with Sky was probably my favorite episode to date.
