S-Town is a new podcast from Serial and This American Life, hosted by Brian Reed, about a man named John who despises his Alabama town and decides to do something about it. He asks Brian to investigate the son of a wealthy family who's allegedly been bragging that he got away with murder. But when someone else ends up dead, the search for the truth leads to a nasty feud, a hunt for hidden treasure, and an unearthing of the mysteries of one man's life.

A glorious yet tragic tale

Superbly told yet tragically sad. Didn’t want it to end

Simply wonderful

A tale that’s as fascinating and compelling as it is heart-wrenching. Special praise for Brian Reed, who tells the story with a beautiful mixture of honesty, tenacity and sensitivity. I loved it.
