- Becoming part of capitalism
As a not-American citizen I’ve been a fan of Serial a year after the first production was launched , admiring the skills AND the commitment of the makers. By putting it behind paywalls, even the earlier productions, a lot of that admiration is gone… in stead of inviting people on your trip to get the truth out, you keep it privileged and hidden. I can’t admire that!

I can barely get through this, knowing what I know about the Kowalski case; it seems you are focused on only one side, and that side, is dangerous. I firmly believe Maya is alive and well today because her mom is dead. Do better research, I’m super disappointed with Serial, season 1 and 2 and S-Town are the reason I love podcasts. This season sickens me with the obvious blindness to what these mothers are actually doing. Shame on you.

Used to love all of the Serial stories and decided to try again after not listening for a few years. I listen to the first episode, get interested, and then am met with, if you want to listen to the rest of this, pay our monthly fee. Absolute garbage! To allow the first episode to stream with no statement or warning, that I’ll need to pay to hear the whole thing, is cheap, dirty, and on par with the hyper capitalistic nature of our world that the New York Times postures to rail against.
