Serial season three is finally here!
We are entering October and I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one dreading the cold months to follow. Lucky us, we can keep our minds busy with some thrilling podcast this fall. Since last week, we can enjoy episodes from Serial season three weekly. Continue reading to learn more about Serial and my other favorite crime podcast. No spoilers!
Two seasons to remember
Four years ago, Sarah Koenig from This American Life grabbed everyone’s attention with the first season of Serial. How could we forget? By then everyone was talking about the podcast. The storyline was thrilling and we were all excited to find out whether or not Adnan Syed was wrongly accused of Hae Min Lee’s murder. The second season followed a similar narrative when Sarah Koenig walked us through the story of the American soldier Bowe Bergdahl and his curious experiences.
Different setup of Serial season three
The first two seasons of Serial focused on two specific cases, but the third season has a different setup. Throughout the season, Sarah Koenig will present us with different courthouses located in Cleveland. Serial claims that each episode will tell us “extraordinary stories about ordinary cases”. Unsurprisingly, Serial season three highlights the faults of the American justice system. We could enjoy the first episode of Serial season three 20th of September and we cannot wait to listen to all them all!
If you are a true crime podcast addict like me, one podcast is not enough to fill my daily quota. Serial is not the only true crime podcast in my Podcast Guru playlist. Here are some of my favorites that you should make sure to listen to after finishing Serial season three.
- S-town is another great podcast made by the team of This American life. S-town tells the odd and unexpected story of a man living in Alabama.
- Finding Cleo is a well-made podcast about a missing person case in Canada. I guarantee you that it will make you shiver.
- Unsolved Murders introduces an unsolved murder each episode and gives us all the mysterious clues.
- Alibi takes place in South Africa and unfolds the story of Anthony deVries, who pleads innocent for a crime he is incarcerated for.
