Is it really worth it?
Some of it is really dry.
I am currently on episode 8 about cell phone towers and it is just letters and numbers.

Yes. The material is more dense but it's great.

I think so, but it is a lot of fine detail. I'm on episode15.

It gets better the farther into you get. The trial parts were very good.

So...a lot of it is dry.

Undisclosed is really more for the people who are interested in the nitty gritty, than just for entertainment.

Each chapter is a specific part of the case or trial. Like, cell towers. It could all be condensed into one episode of "Most of the evidence is unreliable. Many of the witnesses are unreliable. There is evidence and witnesses that should have been introduced at the trial, but weren't. Gutierrez did a generally crappy job." But, in order to explain why they believe each of these to be true, they need an hour, or whatever, to do it.

Like, the cell phone towers. They go through how the towers are built, named, used, etc. They interview a number of cell phone tower experts. Their belief is that the cell ping information is marginally relevant, at best. They could say it more succinctly, but their intentions are to get other people to understand why so much of the investigation and trial were complete crap.

It took me a while to get into it, especially coming from something so well produced like Serial.

But they do such a fantastic job explaining the legal aspect, exposing major holes and explore other theories and evidence police ignored.

Another great one to check out after Undisclosed is Truth and Justice with Bob Ruff.

No. It's rough. A couple episodes are good, but it's very amateur (duh, I know they're not in Radio TV Film, but still.)

I just feel like they go off on so many tangents. They use examples of other crime stories where there was bad police work and then it takes them 20min to set the scene before they explain the bad police work.
And there are also several times I want to yell at them.
They already determined that Hae didn't go to the canteen that day with some reason. And then they analyze the stomach contents to say 'no French fries'... We already knew that part was wrong
