It's the fall of 2011 in LeRoy, New York. A group of high school girls are all developing a mysterious illness: spasms, vocal outbursts, and uncontrollably violent movements. Is it a virus? Something in the water? An old chemical spill? And how will Erin Brokovich get involved? It's time to preview Hysterical from Wondery and Pineapple Street Studios, hosted by Dan Taberski.
Here, we discuss only the first episode of the series to decide if this crime is worth your time. There will be no spoilers for anything after episode one. Check back here for our Full Recap next time, where we discuss the series as a whole. Preview episodes are released each Sunday. Full Recaps are released each Friday.
You can find Hysterical wherever you listen to podcasts, including at Wondery.
