We're back... and we've got a lot to talk about.

In this special Yap Session, Neeli and Whitney sit down to catch up on everything that's been happening behind the scenes at Murder Creek Media. From why episodes have been delayed to the investigative projects currently in the works, this is an unfiltered conversation about where we've been, where we're headed, and why we're more committed than ever to holding power accountable.

We discuss the overwhelming number of tips coming into our inboxes, what's next for Make It Make Sense, Alabama, the upcoming Murder in Mobile County investigative series, and our newest long-form reporting project, Tony Crony. We also talk about the importance of citizen tips, why transparency matters, and how everyday Alabamians can help bring accountability back to government.

If you've been wondering what we've been up to... this one's for you.
