The Longford Lecture is a centrepiece event of the criminal justice sector's year. Run by the Longford Trust, a charity that provides opportunities for study and mentoring for people in prison and detention, it takes place at Church House in Westminster.
This year's lecture was a scathing diagnosis of the problems Charlie Taylor has seen in his six years as His Majesty's Chief Inspector of Prisons.
Also on the podcast, David Kendall, who runs the Penned Up festival in prisons, talks about receiving the Longford Prize.
