ONE DAY & A WAKE-UP from Colorado Radio for Justice is a show about doing time... getting out... and where we are now. In prison slang, “one day and a wake-up” means you're almost free: just one more day before you walk out the gate. So let’s walk out the gate together, hearing real stories from those who’ve lived them, exploring struggles, hopes, and the road to redemption. www.radioforjustice.org
