Charts For People Obsessed With Serial

Are you as obsessed with Serial as we are? If the answer is no then avoid any nearby water coolers, quit your job, go home, download every episode and only return when you're up-to-date. 

The phenomenally successful true crime podcast that has millions wildly theorising over exactly what happened to a murdered high school student years ago has taken off in a way that no one could have predicted. While you anxiously wait for the latest episode, here's a set of expertly detailed charts that sum up what we're all thinking about Serial.

They all come from the supremely talented Michelle Rial, who has been creating charts concerned with This American Life, Serial's podcast parent, for a while now.

Any wildly speculative theories are welcome in the comments.
