From the co-creator of The Ballad of Billy Balls, Crimetown, and the host of Morally Indefensible comes a new podcast, Firebug.  In the early 1990s, a manuscript for a novel called “Points of Origin” lands at literary agencies across the country.  It tells the story of a fictional serial arsonist who lights up southern California.  The thing is… the fires described in the novel may actually be real.  Was Points of Origin a work of fiction, or the confessions of a prolific arsonist and murderer?  Host Kary Antholis goes on a journey to figure out where fiction meets reality.   Learn more about your ad choices.
