The San Francisco Chronicle is partnering with Sony Music Entertainment and the U.K. production company Ugly Duckling Films to create its first narrative podcast, a true crime series called “The Doodler.”
The investigative podcast will chart the search to unveil the infamous serial killer who terrorized San Francisco’s LGBTQ community in the 1970s and is believed to have murdered at least five people and possibly as many as 14. The Chronicle’s Pulitzer Prize-nominated reporter Kevin Fagan will host the series, which is being researched by him and the newspaper’s former investigative reporter Michael Taylor.
