Frotcast 275: ‘Making A Murderer,’ With Ashley Burns And Pauly Casillas

Listen on the player above, or download as an mp3 here (right-click, save as).

We discuss Making A Murderer, Netflix’s white hot new true crime series, with two blasts from Frotcast past: Uproxx Editor Ashley Burns (Burnsy) and Tuscon, Arizona’s freshest comedy voice, Pauly Casillas (Pauly Dangerously). Bret and I hold down the Frotquarters. Did Steven Avery do it? Should Brendan Dassey get a new trial? Will the pardon Steven Avery petitions make a difference? Which of these questions will we ponder before making fun of the Wisconsin accents and lack of underwear?
