Summary

The panel begins with some appearance announcements, plus the reveal of our PodX ticket giveaway winner. Then somehow we get on a tangent about the 1978-1981 TV series, "The White Shadow." There's a new HBO documentary looking at the USA Gymnastics sex abuse scandal. "At the Heart of Gold" doesn’t have the amount of time the podcast "Believed" enjoyed, so it goes for breadth instead of depth. TO HEAR OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEW OF "AT THE HEART OF GOLD," GO TO THE 33 MINUTE MARK. In "Slate Presents: Charged,” host Emily Bazelon spent two years examining New York’s special gun court for defendants of firearms charges. The series attempts to do what Serial season three could not...turn its longform investigation into a unified narrative about the justice system. TO HEAR OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEW OF "CHARGED," GO TO 70 MINUTE MARK. Then in Crime of the Week: getting stiffed. Get our Patreon-exclusive CWO After Show...and more! Just click here to sign up!
