Are you suffering from Serial withdrawal? Are you one of the millions of listeners that became intrigued by Serial, the podcast that took the world by a storm this past fall? We invite you to join Rabia Chaudry, a lawyer and close family friend that first brought the case to Sarah Koenig's attention. She will be discussing the revelations since the end of Serial, what we can expect next, and much more!

Serial re-investigates the complicated case of Adnan Syed, a man who is serving a prison sentence for the 1999 murder of Maryland teenager, Hae Min Lee. Did Syed actually commit the crime? What didn’t make the podcast? What’s next for Adnan Syed's case? And what does Serial mean for the future of digital storytelling? 

Tickets are on sale for $10 online at $20 at the door (if available). Purchase online at serialdiscussionatlanta.eventbrite.com. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.
