![The Kids of Rutherford County Podcast](/assets/artwork/1x1.gif)
From Serial Productions and The New York Times in partnership with ProPublica and Nashville Public Radio, “The Kids of Rutherford County” is reported and hosted by Meribah Knight, a Peabody-award winning reporter based in the South. For over a decade, one Tennessee county arrested and illegally jailed hundreds, maybe thousands, of children. A four-part narrative series reveals how this came to be, the adults responsible for it, and the two lawyers, former juvenile delinquents themselves, who try to do something about it.

Content vs Listenability

I love this podcast. I love the format, the content, everything. With one exception, at times, not the entire podcast, the host’s vocal fry is too distracting.
Worth a listen

I’ll listen to anything from or recommended by Serial. Although I may have been hoping for a little more, I found the topic interesting. Our world has become so complex, and is reliant on so many parties acting in an ethical manner that it feels like progress is grindingly slow.
Great reporting

I’m only listening because of the good reporting. The narrator is so annoying. Please stop purring like that!
Narrator is trying hard to ruin this story

Hoping she hears herself, laughs when she realizes she sounds silly, and moves on with her normal voice. Lol.
