Shwmae pawb - alright all?
Here's where I'm at, I listen often to This Week in Tech, an American podcast where the tech news of the past week is discussed between a panel. I find it interesting hearing different sides of the story as it were and seeing how developments in the technology industry might affect things going forward. However, this runs once a week and I tend to finish it before the week is up.
The same company also produce a daily podcast, but that's a bit less to my liking - far less discussion as a result of a smaller panel.
My podcastial elixir, as it were, was Serial - the first instalment was a 'murder mystery' type affair in which one Sarah Koenig, with the help of others, tries to identify whether someone was wrongly convicted of murder. The second series of Serial focussed on Bo Bergdahl, a prisoner of war who was captured under some shady circumstances, and subsequently released after years being detained. In this instalment Sarah Koenig focused on how Bo got into that hot mess, and how he managed to get out of it, and ultimately whether it could have been avoided.
There is rumoured to be a 3rd series of Serial, though this is still under the hat. Little information has been disclosed, though it is assumed to be available in 2018 at the earliest.
I decided, on the back of this, to listen to S-Town; by the same producers of Serial but hosted by a chap rather than the oddly intoxicating 'yankee' tones of Sarah Koenig. This focuses on a murder, a non-conviction, attempts to expose the truth behind this and a branch-off story which focuses on a rather eccentric man whom instigated the aid of the producers.
I have thoroughly enjoyed Serial and S-Town, but both are currently on hiatus so I'm looking for a similar fix to the above.
In short, any suggestions of what I could/should listen to next?
Thanks in advance!
