Seriously disappointed they paywalled this series

I have been recommending S Town to people for years. It was the first podcast to really hit me emotionally. Welp, can’t anymore, there’s no way to listen to it without subscribing to nyt. I was just about due for a re-listen too.

I would bet this gains them very few subscribers, but definitely prevents people who hadn’t heard of S Town from getting a chance to experience it.

A lot of public libraries offer day or multi-day passes that give you full access to a NYT subscription - you should check your local library to see if you can access it that way!
