Ep. 29: Sin City Defenders

Wild and Free: A Battle Born podcast is a platform for non-profit professionals, social justice activists and community driven artists that are trying to make a difference in the Southern Nevada community. We talk about the issues that matter and will motivate our fellow community members to get involved.

In this episode we feature four guests for the first time ever! Our guests, Marla, Jessica, Fikisha and Robert are all members of the Clark County Public Defender's office. We talk about how Public Defenders fight for our civil rights, what we should know in order to protect our civil rights, and some of the reasons they like southern Nevada all over some delicious pastries from Mothership Coffee Roasters and beer from Joseph James Brewing Company (the new Lemongrass and Ginger Berliner Weisse makes a great breakfast beer).

To find out more about the Clark County Public Defender’s office and their upcoming warrant quashing event, visit their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/clarkcountypublicdefender/. You can also follow them on twitter at: https://twitter.com/sincitydefender.
