"Open and Shut," a new podcast from Wisconsin Watch and Wisconsin Public Radio, shines a light on how prosecutors do their jobs — and the danger of allowing that power to go unchecked.

Phoebe is a force of nature- this podcast is really extraordinary. It’s gripping, so well-researched and highlights the human stakes behind it all. So incredible- you have to listen.
I am binge-listening to this one. Plus, everyone sounds so “Wisconsin”.
Loved the deep dive. Held on to every word.

Eye-opening, entertaining exposé of corrupt county prosecutors--elected officials. The 7 episodes each focus on a sordid crime case or two wherein the public prosecutor used his power over other players in his local justice system to thwart actual justice. This will appeal most to Wisconsinites, but it's so well produced that any fan of true crime podcasts should listen. Episode 1 is a good intro Civics-wise but feels slow, so hold your judgment until you've heard "Open & Shut" E2.
