Summary

The first season of the "Serial" podcast documented the murder of Hae Min Lee and the battle for freedom of her convicted killer, Adnan Syed. Many consider "Serial" as the series that launched the true-crime genre and sparked the podcasting revolution. Produced by the New York Times and hosted by Sarah Koenig, the podcast was briefly successful in having Syed’s murder conviction vacated and was convincing enough that Jason himself donated to the exoneration fund. One reporter has done the job that American media seems to have refused to do, debunking "Serial" and making the case that Adnan Syed is indeed guilty in the death of Lee and was wrongfully exonerated. Andrew Hammel joins Jason to discuss his in-depth reporting, which was praised by the creator of HBO’s “The Wire,” and lays out his case for Syed’s guilt. Learn more about your ad choices.
