The Innocence Project and Jason Flom

Here's a bit of bullet point background on the two shows as you listen.
- Jason started the Lava for Good podcast network using his connections in the music industry after starting Lava for Good records to help give a voice to the voiceless. His first season was him deeply diving into cases.
- Wrongful Conviction launched a second series because there were just too many cases and he felt Maggie's journalism and passion would help dive deeper into cases she was passionate about too, her season 2 starts Jan 9.
- Jason is currently in the second season of his show where this time around he gave up his host seat to be co-host to the case victims and their legal teams to learn more about the inside of the cases, kind of like pulling back the curtain on the background and Michael Peterson of HBO's the Staircase was on of his shows where we learned that the Wrongful Conviction podcast gave him a platform to express how HBO got his story all wrong and shamed his family when they were going through a terrible loss where his children were impacted from the art which turned his story into fiction.

About Wrongful Conviction with Jason Flom podcast
Hosted by celebrated criminal justice reform advocate and founding board member of the Innocence Project Jason Flom, Wrongful Conviction features intimate conversations with men and women who have spent years in prison for crimes they maintain they did not commit.

Each episode peels back the layers behind the stories of those who have found themselves caught in a legal system gone wrong, with illuminating insights from lawyers and leading experts sharing their in-depth knowledge about each case, from prison visits and courtroom battles to reexamined crime scenes and witness interviews . This gripping series reveals the tragedy of injustice…as well as the triumph that is possible when people step up and demand change.
