In the last decade, something strange has happened to the way we talk about crime.

The meteoric rise of the true crime podcast seems to be changing the shape of our culture, our understanding of criminal justice, and even our conception of truth itself. Why do some podcasts help solve murder cases while others seem to be slowly corroding the sanctity of the American legal system? In the first season of this series, students and journalists Kyleigh McPeek and Grace Carroll spend a year investigating the murky underbelly of the true crime podcasting industry…

…and now, they’ve made a podcast about it.

Episode 1 of the True Crime Podcast Podcast arrives September 8th, 2024.
