Bailey joined The Skinny to talk about the state of Florida’s approach to re-assessing prison sentences of incarcerated folks whose arrests and convictions may have been part of a miscarriage of justice, and more.

In the second half of the show, the Tampa Bay Times’ Stephanie Hayes joins us in the WMNF Tampa studio to discuss her rise from the Tampa Bay Times Carrollwood bureau to nationally-syndicated columnist.Listen to today’s episode of The Skinny on WMNF via Apple Music, TuneIn, Google Podcasts, and Spotify, and wmnf.org.
