I was deployed in Paktika, exactly where Bergdahl was captured, but two years prior. He is a liar and a deserter. The premise and idea of Serial is good, there are plenty of worthy investigations out there, as proven by season 1 and Making a Murderer on Netflix. The crazy left-wing agenda that was somewhat in focus during season 1, but was muted enough that everyone could get over it an enjoy the program is so much in the forefront this season that it is unbearable. I keep listening hoping something will change, but it doesn't.

I think you're right. She seemed to maintain some objectivity during season one, but by the end it seemed like she was rooting for the dude. Season two just seems like a mailed in cash grab with an agenda to paint bergdahl like some kind of folk hero. Feels like the whole concept is losing steam.

Explain this. This was my impression going in to the season, but everyone they interview seems to agree that he was an exemplary soldier before he walked off. Kind of surprising, actually. I think there's a level of bullshite and revisionist history in Bergdahl's interviews, but I don't think that he is a traitor, or ever was one. That dad in the Rose Garden doesn't help though.
