Once the insanely popular podcast wrapped up season one, I was left wanting more. If you&#8217;re in the same boat, you&#8217;ll want to check out these infographics, which cover everything from cell phone tower locations to MailChimp mispronunciations.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Serial_Visualized\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.propointgraphics.com\/work\/serial-visualized\/\">Serial Visualized<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\nThis is perhaps the best visual overview of the case you can find.
