He also interviews Muslims who have been to prison and share their experiences being a Muslim behind bars.

Finally, he interviews converts and their experiences reverting to Islam, dealing with their families, and interacting with the Muslim community. These four topics might seem random, but they are four dimensions of the hosts life - he converted to Islam shortly before experiencing prison in the USA, afterwhich he studied in an Islamic seminary for 10 years before graduating and working as a psychologist in Australia.
