S-Town is a podcast hosted by Brian Reed from Serial Productions, a New York Times company. The story follows 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.

Candle in the wind
From the first moment, I was absolutely captivated by this story.
John B is extremely opinionated, judgemental and at times downright vulgar; yet Brian tells his story with such finesse that the audience is drawn to John B’s deep vulnerability and razor-sharp intellegence. One can’t help but share the almost-impossible-to-carry burden on John B’s shoulders as he talks about global decay, yet rejoice in the masterfully balanced moments of joy, love and adoration that others recount about him.
I listened to this probably 10+ times; I wish Serial would make additional episodes and share every recorded moment of the John B McLemore story!
Brilliant
I loved this podcast. Albeit somewhat strange, Brian and the various interviewees throughout the podcast tell a story of a brilliant, strange man.
Deeply touching story
A profound story sensitively told. Brilliant
