Mental and Physical Implications of Anabolic Steroids

Prisonology Podcast Mental and Physical Implications of Anabolic Steroids William Noguera explains how cash rewards, million dollar contracts, and accolades make anabolic steroids extremely tempting to athletes. But, is it worth it? Overnight, they transformed William, a teenager, into a vicious fighter, winning cash prices at underground fighting rings. However, he became unable to control his anger or process his emotions. These drugs cloud an individual’s judgment and can have deadly outcomes. What started with his father buying anabolic steroids in Tijuana, led William down a path towards a life sentence. 1:41 Prevalence of steroids 5:30 Father’s role in drug 6:32 Physical effects 8:50 Mental effects 15:12 Financial benefits 20:36 Killer Sally 21:18 Aftereffects William A.

William & Steroids: Psychological Lighter Fluid

Prisonology Podcast William & Anabolic Steroids: Psychological Lighter Fluid There are serious ramifications to taking anabolic steroids to enhance athletic performance and build muscle. Among them, steroids often exacerbate underlying mental health issues and trigger rage. William Noguera opens up about his own experience, taking them at only thirteen and throughout puberty.

Fighting for Father’s Approval

Prisonology Podcast Fighting for Father’s Approval    William Noguera's desire for his father's approval started when he was only five years old, enrolled in martial arts tournaments for his father’s entertainment. Their complicated relationship had a lasting impact on Will, who wishes their relationship could’ve healed before his death. His experience as a competitive fighter taught him useful skills for prison life: discipline, survival skills, the ability to physically defend and assert dominance when called for.   1:41                             Fighter identity  4:05                             Relationship with father  13:35                           Bullying in school  14:40                           Childhood trauma 17:26                           Seeking approval  22:00                           Shame of conviction  26:40                           Prison culture and rules  39:29                           Closing words  41:10                           Outro    William A.

Studying Serial Killers

Prisonology Podcast Studying Serial Killers    William Noguera worked as a caregiver to elderly serial killers for nearly a decade. Through that unique experience, he observed their “ticks” and learned how their brains were wired differently. William differentiates serial killers from the average prisoner and shares the story of when he met Charles Manson. There are prisoners who can, can’t, want to, and don’t to be rehabilitated. He puts serials killers in the category of can’t be and shouldn’t be rehabilitated.  1:41                             Story of Steven  9:20                             Actions speak louder  11:20                           Individuals who can be rehabilitated 15:30                           Individuals who can’t be rehabilitated  22:35                           Serial killers, Charles Manson  28:28                           Starting Death Row Diaries  32:50                           Serial killers ticks  37:45                           Decision to start podcast 42:36                           Outro    William A.

Finding Who You Are: The Power of Letting Go of Your Past

Prisonology Podcast How to Rehabilitate a Convict: Exploring Father-Son Relationships    Dr. Reymon Ethnasios and William Noguera continue their conversation on rehabilitating convicts and discuss their family histories. William dedicated his book to his late father, who he loved and had a complicated relationship with. His father gave him steroids at only 13 for fighting, which started him down the wrong path. There are two key words that William uses in rehabilitation today: un-condition and integrate. Often, inmates find themselves confined behind bars, because they felt pigeonholed by what society expected from them. Fortunately, it's never too late to rewrite one's narrative.    1:41                             Un-condition and integrate 11:00                           Freedom of choice  14:43                           Peer pressure  20:50                           Rising above  21:52                           Martial arts, father, steroids  27:50                           Making peace with father’s death  32:20                           Family tree  39:15                           Evaluating convicts for release  45:10                           Outro    William A.
