Suave

Winner of the 2022 Pulitzer Prize in Audio Reporting



The U.S is the only country in the world that allows minors to be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Approximately 2,500 juveniles have been effectively sentenced to die in prison—considered “irredeemable” by the state for crimes committed when they were just teenagers. One of them was David Luis “Suave” Gonzalez, who entered prison at 17 expecting to leave in a coffin. Suave tells the story of what happens when your whole world is a prison cell, and you suddenly get a second chance at life. It’s the story of one man’s incarceration and redemption and an unusual relationship between a journalist and a source.

This podcast may use tracking and attribution and dynamic content insertion

Stats: Statistics are produced by PRX, Chartable and Podtrac to help Suave to understand how many downloads it is getting, or how many people are listening. Your device’s IP address and user agent is used to help calculate this figure. PRX and Podtrac are IAB v2 certified. Here is more detail about podcast statistics.

Tracking and attribution: Chartable or its partners may connect the fact you listened to this podcast to an action elsewhere on the internet. For example - it may spot a device that downloaded an episode of Suave later visited the website of an advertiser; or it may track that a device that listened to Suave also listened to a different show. This form of attribution is used to measure advertising effectiveness.

Dynamic content insertion: PRX may use limited data that they know about you - the device you’re using, the approximate location you’re in, or other data that can be derived from this, like the current weather forecast for your area - to change parts of the audio. Suave may do this for advertising or for other forms of content, like news stories.

Suave is able to use the above tools since its podcast host or measurement company offers this service. It doesn’t mean that this individual podcast uses them, or has access to this functionality. We use open data.
