Another True Crime Podcast From iHeartMedia/HowStuffWorks And School Of Humans: 'Hell And Gone'

True Crime

iHEARTMEDIA and HOWSTUFFWORKS are launching another new true crime podcast, this time with ATLANTA-based production company SCHOOL OF HUMANS.  The eight-part "HELL AND GONE," hosted by private investigator and true crime writer CATHERINE TOWNSEND and debuting next WEDNESDAY (10/17), will look at the unsolved 2004 murder of college student REBEKAH GOULD in the OZARKS.

“I’ve always had a personal connection to REBEKAH’s murder. My dad is a deputy sheriff in the area, my sister is close friends with REBEKAH’s sister,” said TOWNSEND. “It seemed like over the years, everyone in town has had a theory about who killed REBEKAH -- but not everyone wanted the case solved.”
 
“I was inspired by true crime podcasts like SERIAL and wanted to use the podcast as an investigative device,” added TOWNSEND. “But because no one had been arrested or charged, there is a very real sense of danger to the story. Any time I head out to interview someone, I could be talking to the killer.”
 
“It’s evident that our listeners across the country continue to have a huge appetite for true crime,” said HOWSTUFFWORKS Pres./CEO CONAL BYRNE. "This series is unique because it allows listeners to be part of the team and follow a real-time murder investigation. We are excited about this partnership and being able to introduce this program to our hundreds of millions of listeners.”
