Serial
By now, you should have already heard about the immensely popular podcast, Serial. The show is hosted by NPR personality Sarah Koenig, and spends a season investigating a nuanced, and complicated criminal case. The first twelve episodes famously looked at the murder of Hae Min Lee. If you haven’t already binged the podcast, then make sure to avoid anything Serial-related on the internet. Delving into the listening experience without it being spoiled, really makes the show extra special.
