Bail
Tess Armstrong
The phone call at 3 a.m. Nobody's ready for it.
With Hunter Biederman,
The DWI Hunter™
One bad night can upend an ordinary life. This is the show about everything that happens next.
About the show
Nobody plans for the worst night of their life.
A traffic stop. Flashing lights. A set of handcuffs on a person who has never been in trouble a day in their life. That's where most stories start — and where most people stop being told anything useful.
One Bad Night talks to everyone standing in the hallway afterward: bail bondsmen, insurance agents, interlock installers, recovery counselors, immigration lawyers, family lawyers, and the prosecutors who used to sit on the other side of the table.
No lectures. No billable hours. Just what actually happens next, from the people who deal with it every single day.

About the host
Hunter Biederman
"The DWI Hunter"
Hunter Biederman is a Texas criminal defense attorney based in Frisco and a former Collin County prosecutor. He has worked both sides of a DWI case — filing them and fighting them.
He started this show because the courtroom is only one room of many, and most people never get told what's waiting in the rest of them.
