This podcast tells the remarkable stories of political prisoners around the world risking it all for something bigger than themselves: a better future for all of us. With Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine dominating headlines, Season One brings you the story of another Vladimir who's standing up to Putin despite two poisonings and a current 25-year prison (virtual death) sentence. To confront the global challenges of our time and build hope for the future, we shouldn’t hear out regimes who rule by force. We should listen to the voices of conviction.
