Small town,France clocks -- murder? If all goes well for the newly-launched Serial Productions, those will soon be the favorite topics of the podcasting world. S-Townis a new murder mystery podcast that dives into true events in Alabama and the program released a short preview on Tuesday.
The preview is essentially a soliloquy for a broken antique clock from host Brian Reed. "I only know all this because years ago an antique clock restorer contacted me," Reed explains. "And asked me to help him solve a murder."
