En Radio Ambulante Studios nos obsesionan las grandes historias: desde relatos íntimos y conmovedores, hasta hechos políticos que atraviesan un país, una región, un continente. Pero hay acontecimientos e historias que no pueden contarse en un solo episodio. Por eso, llega CENTRAL, el canal de series de Radio Ambulante Studios. Combinamos la experiencia y el potencial narrativo de Radio Ambulante, y el filo periodístico y analítico de El hilo, para reconstruir, en esta primera serie, una historia que tiene que ver con todos, la del presidente de El Salvador, Nayib Bukele. Un joven que irrumpió en un país pequeño y, en poco tiempo, cambió todas las reglas de juego. En toda América Latina, Bukele ha sembrado la interrogante sobre ¿cuál es el punto en que las promesas de la democracia ya no importan? ‘Bukele: el señor de Los sueños’ es una serie documental de seis episodios sobre cómo un publicista se convierte en político y convence a una sociedad de entregarle un poder sin límites.

Mindhunting with Sarah Weinman

"What is it about the culture that has conditioned us to favor the wants and needs and desires, however horrible, of a serial murderer, as opposed to--most often--the women and girls that they harmed and killed?" This week, Sarah Weinman takes us on a backpacking trip through true crime history and American pop culture, and tells us about the myths and realities of criminal profiling—and why they're sometimes so hard to pull apart. And finally, we ask the ultimate taboo question: are serial killers boring?You can find Sarah's newsletter here.Articles discussed:The Case of the Fake SherlockWhat lies beneath: the secrets of France’s top serial killer expertSupport You're Wrong About:Bonus Episodes on PatreonBuy cute merchWhere else to find us:Sarah's other show, You Are Good[YWA co-founder] Mike's other show, Maintenance PhaseLinks:https://thecrimelady.substack.com/https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/richard-walter-criminal-profiler-fraud.htmlhttps://www.theguardian.com/news/2021/nov/09/secrets-of-top-serial-killer-expert-france-stephane-bourgoinhttps://www.patreon.com/IfBooksPodhttps://www.teepublic.com/stores/youre-wrong-abouthttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/yourewrongaboutpodhttps://www.podpage.com/you-are-goodhttp://maintenancephase.comSupport the show
