1. Adnan Syed has not listened to the podcast

In a recent interview, Rabia Chaudry, attorney and and friend of the Syed family, told Refinery29 that Syed doesn't listen to the podcast because he can't. "No Internet in maximum security. He doesn’t really know what the global response has been, and he has not been exposed to social media." However, Chaudry did say that listeners of the podcast have been sending him transcripts of the show.

2. Sarah Koenig and her team aren't that far ahead of you

In an Oct. 17 blog post on the Serial website, producer Dana Chivvis explained why they only release one episode per week instead of the entire season. "We’re still pinning down information, doing interviews, following leads. So when you listen each week, the truth is that you’re actually not all that far behind us."

Although, on Nov. 13, the Wall Street Journal reported that Koenig has completed "most of her reporting." She also rejects the rumor that she knows a secret ending that she isn't revealing to the audience.

3. A dozen clients complained that Cristina Gutierrez, Adnan's lawyer, did not file their pleadings in court

According to an article in the Baltimore Sun written by Sarah Koenig in 2001, Gutierrez was allegedly not only negligent with client cases, but with their money as well. In May 2001, Gutierrez was "disbarred by consent" and none of these claims were investigated because she willingly signed the disbarment. "Since I can't defend myself against anything, and I can't practice anyway, I decided to sign the consent," Gutierrez told Koenig at the time. Gutierrez suffered from multiple sclerosis and died of a heart attack in 2004 at age 52.

4. Adnan's mother and brother listen to the podcast just like everybody else

During an interview with CBS News, Adnan's brother, Yusuf Syed revealed that he and his mother listen to the podcast just like everyone else. "Some days I'll be like 'oh this is a really great episode,' some days I'll just feel so down and depressed."

5. The innocence project that is looking into Adnan's case is investigating physical evidence

According to the Columbia Journalism Review, the Innocence Project Clinic at the University of Virginia School of Law that is currently looking into Adnan's case and are "poised to ask a court to test an old physical evidence recovery kit (PERK) that was used on Lee’s body to test for possible sexual assault in 1999, but was never tested for DNA."

6. Hollywood is trying to cash in on Serial
