Judge McIntosh opens up about the hard truths of the prison system, exposing the flaws he’s witnessed firsthand after decades on the bench. But he doesn’t stop there — he shares how his perspective has evolved and the changes he’s made in his courtroom, including his championing of a drug court program that gives people struggling with addiction a real shot at recovery instead of more time behind bars.The episode dives into Louis’ time in that very program, and the pivotal moment when Judge McIntosh sent him to jail for what would be the last time. They revisit that day, the weight of that decision, and how it ultimately became the turning point in Louis' life.This is more than a podcast — it’s a redemption story told from both sides of the bench. Expect honesty, humility, and hope in this remarkable dialogue between a man who once handed down sentences and the man who turned one of those sentences into a life reclaimed.Don't miss this one — it's history, healing, and humanity in one unforgettable conversation.🔔 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more powerful stories on addiction, recovery, and resilience.Get a Grip Podcast Social Media: Find our TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeart Radio links, a more on our Link Tree below!Get a Grip Social Media Links: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/officialgetagrippodcast⁠
