Published: Oct. 15, 2018, 10:06 a.m.

b'In Serial episode 5, Pleas Baby Pleas, Sarah brings us inside the prosecutor\\u2019s office, giving us a view of what it\\u2019s like to be one of too-few prosecutors in a system with too many felonies to prosecute, with some decisions made for justice and some for expediency. But does this episode live up to Serial\'s promise? The panel is split 3-1.\\n\\nThen, we review The Dream, a new podcast from Stitcher that looks at the unsavory world of multi-level marketing companies, and the reasons some people get sucked in. \\n\\nFor our review without spoilers, skip to: 1:06:41.\\n\\nIn Crime of the Week: Apple, peaches, pumpkin pie.
