Winter Storms in Texas Prisons

When winter hits Texas prisons, the cold isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s brutal. With little to no heating, thin uniforms, and often no extra blankets, incarcerated people are left to fend for themselves against freezing temperatures. In this episode of On the Recyard: Women’s Prison Podcast, Marci Marie and Toonchi dive into what it really means to survive winter behind bars. We share personal stories of resilience, the humor and ingenuity that get people through, and the harsh realities of a system that leaves them out in the cold—literally. Listen in for a raw and real conversation about what winter survival looks like on the inside and why these conditions shouldn’t be ignored. #OnTheRecyard #TexasPrisons #WinterStorm
