In this gripping episode, we dive into the turbulent journey of a former Rikers Island correctional officer. From confronting the harsh realities of prison life and engaging in underground activities to facing a DEA sting operation and enduring incarceration, this narrative is a raw and honest account of downfall and redemption. Our guest's transition from enforcer to inmate and his post-prison path of writing and rebuilding offers a unique perspective on resilience, hope, and the complex dynamics of the criminal justice system.

    You know it’s a good episode when you wanna hear more and it only feels like you were listening for 10 minutes.
  • Man i was not expecting to watch this whole thing but once I started listening, I couldn't stop.
  • @RayquanTV
    I remember hearing this on twitter a few years ago. He tells the story exactly the same without skipping a beat. Such a great story man. Glad to see he is well
  • @sjoelle3335
    This was my favorite interview from Ian Bick. It felt honest. There wasn’t the braggadocio and grandstanding that other prison people display when they brag about hitting people and going to the box. This guy is guilty, but seems to be relatively honest. A breath of fresh air.
  • @Lovecayy_
    He talks about in this entire experience in his book “Across the Bridge a Rikers Island Story” such a good read!
  • @ShawnnaBaby
    As a born and raised New Yorker this hit so close to home from Forest Hills High School to John Jay, Jamaica Ave. I wish you the best Steven on your new journey 🫶🏼 Ian I can’t explain the growth I’ve seen ! Keep em comingggg
  • @Dadlife0203
    As a state CO, this interview was absolutely amazing.
  • @teresamartin1814

  • @deantonto1615

  • @mariyaa111
    This guy is a great storyteller! I watched 5 clips on TikTok and came here and watched from start to finish! I don’t understand how this is legal to basically harass someone into doing illegal things?
  • @lizgarcia3800
    He is my fav out of everyone you have interviewed. I need his book!!!! 📚 His accent and his smile is everything! ❤
  • New subscriber. Love how you allow him to talk and tell the story with little to no interference. Appreciate that 💯
  • @MikeBites
    This story has to be made into a series!!
  • @williamgreen8625
    How is it legal for a CI to get an innocent person to start doing illegal activities? That is the opposite taking people off the street...
  • @nainmerino4873
    Really enjoyed the pod... being born and raised in NYC, I can understand Steven's situation, not to mention the values of being a Latino man supporting mom and wanting better for himself and his mom. I recommend Steven hit the schools and start building a mentoring/ motivational speaker seminars to our youth, letting them know 1 wrong decision can go left, but positive and healthy outcomes can be produced. Congrats on the book, best of luck! Ian, job well done on this interview👏
  • @jimdiamondcoles
    This was ridiculously entertaining. So easy to get caught up in the mix. Wow!
  • Another BANGER!! Sheesh man. You dont miss. This was a great story and kept you interested the whole time.
  • One of my favorite episodes so far!! Ian does a great job of listening to his guests and letting them tell you the story instead of interrupting every few seconds! Well done, gentleman 🎉
