COPS launched in 1989 and helped sell the War on Drugs to the American people. I’m hopeful its cancellation 31 years later is a sign of positive change to come.
Dang,
@TheAtlantic
, thank you for recognizing *The Line* so generously. And thank you for putting *9/12* at the top of the list. Couldn’t be prouder of my partners and friends at
@pineapplemedia
We all could not be prouder to win a Dupont for *The Line.* thank you
@columbiajourn
. crazy love to
@JigsawProds
@alexgibneyfilm
for being great partners, and to Molly Thompson and
@KyleWasserman
at Apple for supporting it with such gusto and without reservation.
The next silver baton is awarded to
@Apple
and
@Jigsawprods
’ “The Line,” which takes an in-depth look into the Navy SEALs and at the man whose trial brought the military force into the national spotlight.

So excited for you to hear this. It’s moving, and often (oddly) hilarious, and hopefully cathartic. And it’s great to be back with
@pineapplemedia
- it meant a lot for us to make this together
@OfficialLivePD
launched in 2016, not long after the death of Eric Garner, selling false police transparency to the American people - I hope they’re next.
First two episodes of The Line - our Apple Original podcast made with
@alexgibneyfilm
- dropped this AM. Listen and subscribe on
@ApplePodcasts
. Couldn't be prouder of the project and our team.
While we were making THE LINE podcast about the SEALs and Eddie Gallagher, a separate team was making a four part tv doc - shared research and reporting, but a completely different approach. The results are pretty incredible. It drops today on
@AppleTVPlus
oh heyyy! My newest project
#Hysterical
is now available everywhere and it just reached
#1
on the Apple podcast charts! Thanks so much to everyone listening -- and now it's time for a q&a!
Ask me, as they say, anything. ANYTHING!
For two years, Eddie Gallagher and his advocates claimed he did NOT kill a prisoner. When I spoke to him last, his story changed.
Final episode of The Line is out now. Thanks for listening
@ApplePodcasts
Finale out now. It wrestles with a lot, and also has one of my favorite interview subject ever. Thanks producer
@cn_harrell
. Thank you so so much for listening.
Genuinely thrilled to be on
@ThisAmerLife
this weekend, bringing some of the stories we found in making
@headlong
Running From Cops. Give a listen where you’re at.
Gave up two separate audible gasps listening to the Bundyville s2 finale. These guys are moving the medium forward. Plus, just making really good listens.
Me and my producers at
@headlong
interviewed over 100 people in our investigation of COPS and LivePD. So if you’re gonna write a puff piece about the “business angle” of a parasitic show like
@OfficialLivePD
, you should probably include the following [thread]:
There had been rumblings of a post-9/11, CIA/Hollywood connection that no one had been able to crack. I’ll be damned if our team at
@pineapplemedia
didn’t crack it, especially
@maddyrsk
. The results are equal parts hilarious and unnerving.
Two episodes left, coming everywhere in the next couple weeks but if you’re antsy you can binge em now on amazon music for zero - count em ZERO - dollars. xox

Surviving Y2K drops today. thank you so much for listening, and thanks to the truly special people who were so open about their journeys into the Third Millennium.
right on right on! RUNNING FROM COPS being on this list is fantastic, but honestly just the gravy to actually making it - proud of the team and what we put out there this year.

I am extremely hopped up on *The Prince* podcast from
@TheEconomist
about xi jinping.
@suelinwong
and co are making what must have been incredibly hard seem effortless.
Class is in session on the final day of Creators Forum: we've got
@dantaberski

BIG NEWS!
For a year+ I’ve been working w
@pineapplemedia
on a podcast that hits all my passions: feminism, sexuality, 80s history, CA, NYC...even a classroom controversy over a workout video!
THRILLED our trailer is LIVE
PLS listen/subscribe/share!
In episode 6 of
@headlong
Running From COPS, we cite the Ingham County Sheriff's Dept in Michigan as next on deck to shoot with COPS this summer. An update - that's not happening anymore.
Episode 4 of The Line out now. It’s a good one - including audio from inside the war crimes trial of Eddie Gallagher that the government wouldn’t release
@ApplePodcasts
For today's
@Majority54
, I spoke with
@dtaberski
about the different kind of warfare we've asked special operators to wage for years on end, and the effect that has upon them. His new podcast series, The Line, really grabbed me. Full episode:
Tomorrow we launch Running from COPS - the third season of
@headlong
. It's a six-episode investigation into the longest running reality show in history. And it, I am proud to say, is bananas.
@pineapplemedia
@topicstories
. Subscribe, dammit!
"A good story is not enough. It needs to be a good story that leaves you unsettled and the process of figuring that out is the podcast," says

hey hey so happy to see The Line as a finalist for the DuPont-Columbia award. extremely proud to have worked with
@lizziejacobs79
and everyone at Jigsaw and Apple on this
Oh, and Williamson County, TX, which is mentioned several times in this article? They just voted Monday to ban LivePD (unanimously), following in the footsteps of Spokane County, WA last year. Probably should have put that in the article too.
Extremely loud shoutout to
@lizziejacobs79
and
@dianegabrielle
and the team who dove blind into hundreds of hours of trial audio and thousands of pages of evidence - and spotted the things that were really important
@dtaberski
I have *never listened to podcast episodes more than once. Until now. Because Tuesday’s take a long time to get to, and I just can’t stop thinking about
#theline
. Excellently done.
The music I composed for podcast 9/12 was nominated for “Best Original Score” by the
#Ambies
. 9/12 was also nominated for Podcast of the Year & Best Reporting. Listen to the theme song now on
@amazonmusic
Finally caught up on this incredible series and was coming here to shout it from the rooftops when I realized Ilya beat me to it. I was already a Taberski stan, but this one really deserves all the awards.
My daughter says that when I find something I really like, I become a little, er, over enthusiastic. That being said, 9/12, which I just finished as the finest podcast I’ve ever listened to. The thing is fucking profound.
it's New Year's Eve! Episode 4 of
@headlong
Surviving Y2K out now - it's got two simultaneous births, a love story, regime change, Connie Francis, and the wildest hostage negotiation you will ever hear. And did i mention Connie Francis?
