KCRW 2023
A new podcast from Gimlet Media exploring the tangled web of crime and corruption in American cities. Hosted by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier.
Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit's history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, and our universal desire for a savior. Detroit's a tough town, and its residents are even tougher. They've weathered riots, a drug epidemic, political scandal, and innumerable other hardships, but they're still here—and they have stories to tell.

Hillbilly Feminist
Life of a Feminist in the Ozarks
A little bit of humor from a feminist. You may think impossible, but in reality no one cares what trolls think. I will discuss one topic (or ten depending on how much caffeine I drink) each episode concerning the Midwest American culture, and by American I mean 'Merican. The life of a feminist in the Midwest gets a bit tense at times and I hope to show people in rural areas that the word "feminist" is not a threat to your livelihood, unless you make a living by being a misogynist. In that case…uh…suck it.
