Koenig notes that the podcast universe has transformed significantly, saying, "We are in a sea of podcasts. Successive outings have also leaned less on the serialization you might assume from the title, with the Guantanamo series focusing instead on somewhat interlinked stories of life at the notorious US prison camp, rather than one overarching, unfurling narrative." Her reflections show how audience expectations have changed, further complicating the landscape for Serial.
Despite Koenig's acknowledgment of changes, she expresses a tinge of sadness: "It's slightly sad to think that some people may have abandoned it just because it isn't that same show it was at that very specific moment in time, pre-true crime boom, rather than something that has changed and evolved over a decade." This highlights the challenge of adapting to an audience that may resist change.
