Review on âSerialâ Season 1, âS-Townâ, &  âThe Horror of Dolores Roachâ - What is a Podcast?
  I just want to start this out by saying Iâm sorry I havenât posted a blog in sooo long. Iâve procrastinated because I didnât know what to blog about next! At one time I was going to make a blog about my Bloom Tour experience and another was a Bloom album review, but I decided to make another on these Podcasts. A week ago I have never listened to any podcasts or knew where to listen to them, I had no interest, BUT, these last few days itâs all I listen to on my phone, in the car, & on my laptop. What are Podcasts? Theyâre free easy to download audio books in a way is what I think of them as. I KNOW, audio books? Because myself personally am a book reader, I couldnât listen and focus unless I see it in my hands reading with my eyes bobbing left to read like when you watch a tennis match just reading every sentence. You might not think thereâs a difference between these and audio books, but you typically canât subscribe to audio books as you can podcasts, and podcasts put the story into episodes; series. Every episode can be a different topic or a whole story that makes it into a season, whichever genres youâre into, thereâs one for you. Okay enough of this, onto the reviews.
 Summary -  Season one of this Podcast show called âSerialâ tells the story of a 1999 kidnapping and murder case of Hae Min Lee January 13th. This Podcast started their own investigation on this case in 2014, 15 years later, after Sarah Koenig receives an email about this case to try and prove Adnan Seyed innocent. Adnan was found guilty and convicted of murder and kidnapping of Hae Min Lee and was having to serve at first, the dealth penalty but was then changed to Life plus 30 years. (If i remember forgive me if that was wrong) Adnan was dating Hae Min Lee at one time 15 years ago. Itâs a story that leaves you always wondering âWho actually did it?â and while you try and come up with your own theory, Koenig works on this investigation for atleast 2 years, reaching to past friends of Adnanâs and Haeâs back in highschool and Adnanâs family and childhood to learn who Adnan was really like. I cannot spoil anything for you in this podcast because itâs just a must-listen.
 Review - I loved this season out of the three âSerialâ has produced personally because itâs a murder mystery case with unexpecting surprises throughout entirely. Because of this Podcast as you should know, Adnanâs case in 2016 was reopened for another trial. Nice fitting background music on pauses and suspensed moments. Professionals and experts were used in this series to give better understanding of what might to expect in situations like this. Just having real interrogations and court cases from back in 1999 that youâre able to hear yourself from everyone involved makes this season stand out and grab my attention and I know this deserved the ratings it got. Crazy amount of downloads this Series has received resulting in receiving the Peabody award and #1 on the charts.
 Summary -  âS-Townâ comes from the same producers of âSerialâ but a different host, Brian Reed. This is a 7 Chapter Series of what first seems to be about an email Reed received from a John B. Mclemore of Bibb County, Alabama, wanting Reed to investigate into a possible murder of a young boy in his town, but that topic changes. The Series follows as Brian travels to this small town in Alabama to learn more about this town, and eventually John. John is a very interesting man, even a genius as most have called him in this series, as the many revealings we learn throughout.
  Review - I have to be honest with you, at points in this series, i was left upset, even teary-eyed at how powerful this is, but thatâs not the only feelings I had, no this series came at me at different angles, from laughing and happy and angry and sad. Itâs a must-listen guys and definitely free to download. Also lives up to itâs ratings, not to mention how many downloads this got in a short amount of time resulting in receiving the Peabody Award.
âThe Horror of Delores Roachâ
  Summary -  This story tells of a Woman in her 30s, Delores Roach, just released out of prison after serving 16 years for a drug bust. The Setting: New York. being that she gets released after so long, she has no idea about the new technological world that we live in today. Thereâs different Broadways and stores around her that took the places of all the old shops there was before she went away. All except one, an Empanada restaraunt that her and her old boyfriend Dominik used to always go. She walks into the store and who does she find? A guy named Luis that used to buy weed from her back then, heâs the owner of this restaraunt. With only having $195 after giving $5 to the homeless man, Luis offers her a place to stay in the room below the restaurant. Since Delores doesnât have a job, soon Luis and Delores sparks an idea for Delores to be a masseuse, a given trade she was taught back in prison, and man is she good! But one incident with a man by the name of Mr. Pearlman that winds up dead in the restaurant, things are looking badly and the body must be rid of.Â
  Review - I felt if I continued onto my summary I couldâve spoiled more that you deserve to find out yourself. Furthermore this story contains adult content for the young ears out there so beware. I enjoyed listening to this story, would also hope for a following story after? Hint hint ;) I love the imagery I was able to produce in my head with sound effects and descriptions used. And the characters? Phenomonal! Well done! It honestly had me just stop in my tracks at times just focused on whatâs next. Great acting, great story line and above all a must-listen
  Thank you for reading this review, hope you liked it, you can also like this post and follow me. And also tomorrow I turn 19
