This Is Ear Hustle: Unflinching Stories of Everyday Prison Life by Nigel Poor, Earlonne Woods
4.0
If I hadn't been an avid fan of the podcast already, I might give this more stars. The best part was the first few chapters when Earlonne and Nigel tell their backstories - something they rarely do on the podcast. Otherwise, this book is at least half greatest hits episodes with some behind-the-scenes details.
If you've never listened to the podcast, I think the podcast is better. Go listen to it instead (starting with season 1, episode 1). Granted, I listened to the audiobook, but I felt that I missed out on the excellent sound design of the podcast. Also, some parts of the book are read by voice actors which feels a bit fake compared to the real interviews featured on the podcast. I wish they'd just interpolated excepts from the podcast instead.
I enjoyed hearing from Nigel and Earlonne again, though, and was glad I listened to this.
