S4 E5 – A Murder Trial is a Play: A Second Look

This is 22 Hours: A Second Look, where we revisit our original season with host Megan Cloherty. In this episode, Megan is joined by Jack Moore and Julia Ziegler to pull back the curtain on the creation of the original season. They talk about how the show came about, how they turned their daily coverage of the Daron Wint trial into a podcast and discuss the behind the scenes decisions that formed the final product.

New episodes drop every Tuesday.

Original Episode

Over the 22 hours the victims were taken captive and then killed, the prime suspect goes missing and his normally active Facebook account goes dark. We track Daron Wint’s whereabouts during that crucial time. Also in this episode, an introduction to some of the key players in the courtroom: the federal prosecutors who spent years building their case against Wint and the team of public defenders who tried to pin the blame on other suspects.

229 | “Plain Jayne”, Extraordinary Life: A Conversation with Jayne Kennedy – Part Two

In Part 2 of our special Colors: A Dialogue on Race in America series, Jayne Kennedy opens up about the most difficult chapter of her life — a season of heartbreak, isolation, and doubt that nearly silenced her. But what makes her story extraordinary is not the fall, it’s the rise. With courage, faith, and the determination to reinvent herself yet again, Jayne found a way out of the darkness and into the light.

Her new memoir, Plain Jayne, captures that journey with raw honesty — and tomorrow, September 6th, the District of Columbia will honor her with Jayne Kennedy Day. This episode is about triumph over adversity, the power of self-forgiveness, and the unstoppable spirit of a true cultural icon.
