New true-crime podcast releases five episodes to binge
The Conviction of Max B a Spotify/Gimlet podcast has premiered with a binge release of all five episodes out now on Spotify. This is the fourth season of Gimlet’s Conviction series, which features a new piece of investigative reporting each season.
This season on Conviction, Max B is a Harlem rapper on the brink of stardom. One night, he gets wind of a bag full of cash that’s sitting in an empty hotel room, and he starts scheming. It would be an easy score – in and out, no one gets hurt. But it doesn’t go down like that. It all ends in chaos, kidnapping and a dead body. This is the story of a rapper who risked it all for a bag full of money, a robbery where everything went wrong, a messy trial, and a sentence that makes you question who the justice system works for, and who it works against.
Throughout the five episodes, accomplished journalist, TV host and award-winning podcast host Brandon ’Jinx’ Jenkins walks listeners through the mayhem that left a man dead on the night of the crime to the headline grabbing trial where Max B was sentenced to 75 years in prison, in hopes of finding out why someone with so much talent and potential would risk it all for a bag of cash.
ALL EPISODES: ● Episode 1: Who’s 40 Grand Not Tempting To? -- Max B is a famous rapper in Harlem. Until one night changes his life. ● Episode 2: Bring the Money -- Max cooked up an easy score — in and out, no one gets hurt.

But it's the best chance Max will get unless he wants to die in prison.
