Serial Scoop? Breakdown Conviction! Undisclosed Up Close! And Missing & Murdered

Published: Dec. 3, 2016, 2:47 a.m.

b'So many gifts for true crime fans this holiday season, as a new batch of podcasts are hitting the charts. Where to begin...where to begin?\\nFirst, the panel drops a ton of true crime updates. These include a last-minute order keeping Brendan Dassey in prison, a verdict in Breakdown\'s Justin Ross Harris case, and a newspaper editorial calling for a pardon for Bowe Bergdahl. Plus, Rebecca parties-hearty with the team from Undisclosed and Addendum. \\n\\nThe most exciting news comes from "Serial" co-creator Julie Snyder who says their team will be dropping a new seven-week podcast in March. No, it\'s not Serial season three, but it sounds like a compelling story nonetheless - and Rebecca\'s got a decent theory as to who will be telling it.\\n\\nThen we dive into the CBC\'s investigation of the Alberta Williams case, "Missing & Murdered." Set on an island fishing town off the coast of British Columbia, this podcast looks at a cold case from 1989, and the cop (and reporter) who\'s not afraid to name names. Bonus: Rebecca interviews host Connie Walker about making the podcast!\\n\\nFinally, we go all "Hidden Tiger, Crouching Dragon" in the Crime of the Week.\\n\\nThis episode is sponsored by Sock Club.
