The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox (S01E01-03)

The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox is now streaming on Hulu. In this podcast, we discuss the first three installments (“Amanda,” “Ci vediamo più tardi,” and “The Guardian of Perugia”) of K.J. Steinberg’s limited series, which dramatizes the early days of Knox’s arrest, interrogation, and time behind bars following the 2007 murder of Meredith Kercher.

We talk performances, direction, accuracy vs. embellishment, and how this version compares to Amanda’s own memoir Waiting to Be Heard. From coercion tactics to media spin to systemic injustice, there’s plenty to dig into. Tune in for our thoughts and rating. Welcome to Today's Episode!
