The Angola Prison Rodeo exposes the dark legacy of prison labor, racial injustice, and the 13th Amendment loophole in the U.S. incarceration system.

Angola Rodeo's Painful Secret Is Prison Labor Exposed?

A song about the injustice of wealth inequality in our rigged 'system'.

The System

Would it kill you to smile, darling? Perhaps… 

 A men-only charity dinner. A clutch of young waitresses.

The jokes are uncomfortable. The hands linger. The collars loosen.

Behind closed doors, the wine flows.

The night is dark. The faces blur. The memories warp.

Behind closed doors, the money flows.

But revenge is sweet and justice is a burning flame.

Behind closed doors, the blood flows…

A fierce and addictive read about lust and power, the love we want versus the love we take, and the tinderbox secrets that hide so well in the heart of families, this is the searing new novel from the author of Spilt Milk.

Bad Manners, By Amy Beashel, Read by Lizzy Watts, Olivia Dowd, Oliver Hembrough and Mark Meadows

We got enough.
.....So much
..........it's obvious
we've got enough.
But it's not,
not ever enough
to stop us wanting
more.
.....More.
..........More.
We constantly feast.
We eat and we eat
'till we can't eat anymore.
The barns are full-
stuffed on all the floors
full up to the doors.
We can't get more meat
inside the freezer stores.
We got
.....plenty
..........plenty                
...............plenty.
One dark spark
says we might run empty.
It creates a frenzy and
driven by fear and envy
we all cry out for more.
More.
.....More.
..........More.

YOU HEAR ME?
YOU HEAR ME?

It's a very small world
full of very tall stories.
Fakers on the make.
The greedy on the take.
And it's a big mistake
to believe in the TV.
But no-one will be told.
It's the same old,
.....same old,
..........same old.
The greedy are grinning
happy that they're winning.
The poor
.....stay hungry and hangry.
Plenty
.....ain't coming their way.
It's a very small world
full of very tall stories.
