This entire series is indispensable imo, but the last episode is especially insightful in its exploration of resistance to the prison industrial complex in the context of hip hop.
I thought this episode was:

Iāve been loving This American Life since before podcasts were a thing! The adapted Runners World essay on the murder of Ahmaud Arbery was a particularly gut-wrenching contribution to the episodeās theme of stories about twenty-five-year-olds in honor of the radio showās 25th birthday.
I thought this episode was:
726: Twenty-Five

Fascinating to hear about a fire that devastated the Financial District in NYC, and the great lengths VOLUNTEER firefighters went to to save it. Also surprise heroic appearance by Alexander Hamiltonās son!
I thought this episode was:
Rewind: The City in Flames - The Great Fire of 1835
