1. Introducing Ben & Steve

Hold or Fold

After two successful series broadcast exclusively on National Prison Radio - ‘Hold or Fold’ is now available to everyone 

'Hold or Fold' explores gambling harm with an emphasis on the criminal justice system, your hosts Ben & Steve have both served time in prison as a direct result of their gambling. In this first episode they are introducing themselves to you, a brand new audience.

They candidly share what got them into gambling, how it escalated and why this led to a prison sentence. What was that first night in prison like? How did they cope? and how were they able to turn their adversity into a positive?

Plus, Ben & Steve will be taking their first listener question in ‘Cards On the Table’ - We’d love to hear your questions too. To do this, use the links below
