Serial Season 3: Episodes 1 and 2 - Our breakdown and review!

Get ready for the best discussion and analysis about the Serial podcast.

Sarah Koenig is back for season 3 (finally)! Along with Emmanuel Dzotsi, Sarah gives us a year in the life of the Cleveland Justice Center.

For episode one, "A Bar Fight Walks into the Justice Center," the crime writers discuss whether the lesson is about prosecutorial discretion...or about race?

In episode two, "You've Got Some Gauls," we can't even with Judge G. But does he have a point?

Also, we give our take on the update episode of "In the Dark." The more things change, the more they stay the same.

In crime of the week: whale fail. See the dumpster snafu here and the classic exploding whale incident here.
