‘Serial’ Podcast

Hi beauties!

So, I’m so excited that the second season of Serial is set to come out in spring and I thought it’ll be great time to see if any of you love it as much as I do. And especially because it’s apparently been downloaded more than 36 million times and there has to be some Aussies that’d been listening!

For those who don’t know it, you’ve got to check it out! Its format is basically exploring one nonfiction story over multiple episodes and the first season covered the story of Adnan Syed who was convicted in 1999 over the murder of his ex-girlfriend Hae Min Lee. The details and all the conspiracy theories surrounding the events of the murder, the police investigation and the trial of Adnan Syed are truly mind boggling!

Plus, Serial showcases an absolutely enthralling storytelling! The tragedy was never sensationalised and all the players involved were given the chance to present their side of the events. This was important to me and I was so happy of its sensitive approach to investigating and reporting this story.

I think I’ve gushed enough about this now but I’d love to hear what you beauties think about the podcast!

    I love love loved the first season. I also read that they are investigating a third story as well, so there will be a shorter gap between 2 and 3

    How funny, I was just reading about this podcast this week and thought it sounded interesting. I’d never heard of it before then so to hear about it again here must be a sign that I need to check it out. 🙂

    This is where I get to feel really, really old because I have no idea what you’re talking about – podcasts are something I’ve not explored – my age is showing!
