Ear Hustle is a non-fiction podcast about prison life produced at San Quentin State Prison by inmates Earlonne Woods and Antwan Williams, along with Nigel Poor, an artist who volunteers at the prison. It is the first podcast to be created entirely inside a prison.
In 2016, it was selected by the Radiotopia network as the winner of its Podquest competition, and subsequently released its first season between June and October 2017.
On November 21, 2018, California governor Jerry Brown commuted Earlonne Woods' sentence, citing Ear Hustle as a significant contributor to his reformation as an American citizen.
