True Crime Podcast Podcast
Two students have found themselves suddenly obsessed with and entangled in the murky world of true crime podcasting. Or, if you want to get into the specifics – and apparently, they do – they've become obsessed with trying to understand why and how people make careers out of talking about homicide; why some podcasts can help solve murder cases, and why other podcasts seem to be slowly corroding the sanctity of the American legal system. And over the course of this series...they're going to tell you what they've found. Instagram: @_podcastpodcast Email: truecrimepodcastpodcast@gmail.com
