On Point host Meghna Chakrabarti sat down with WBUR Podcasts senior producer and host Amory Sivertson for a conversation about the making of Beyond All Repair, a true crime podcast about a woman trying to shed herself of a 22 year-old murder accusation.
They were joined by Zac Stuart-Pontier, editor of Beyond All Repair and executive producer HBO’s “The Jinx,” to share trial footage, interview clips and stories about the wrangling of this complex series and the challenges involved in reporting on people accused of deception and violence.
The evening was punctuated by live performances of original music from the series.
