Overview

Welcome to the Oklahoma State Reformatory's most infamous comedy club, the official prison newsletter, News And Views. ​This isn't your typical look at life behind bars; it's a gut-busting, darkly witty collection of essays from a place where the toilet paper is fire-retardant and the currency is a packet of ramen noodles. Author Jason Bales delivers a collection of laugh-out-loud commentary on the quirks and absurdities of incarceration, tackling everything from the prison's underground ""toaster culture"" and the economics of commissary to the sheer daily insanity that keeps the men of the Oklahoma State Reformatory (OSR) from losing their minds. ​News And Views is more than just humor; it's a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. With a sharp wit and a surprising amount of heart, Bales transforms the grim reality of prison life into a brilliant source of satirical relief. ​If you need a laugh and a fresh, unforgettable take on the world of corrections, look no further.
