Podcast Launch: American Shrapnel, with John Archibald and Becca Andrews

Join award-winning journalists John Archibald and Becca Andrews for a fascinating discussion about their new podcast, American Shrapnel: The Weaponization of Eric Robert Rudolph. Archibald and Andrews will discuss Rudolph’s five years on the run, the stunning story of his capture, and the undercurrents of anger and hate that motivated Rudolph.

About American Shrapnel:
In 1996, Rudolph planted the largest pipe bomb in American history at the Atlanta Olympic Games. In 1997, he bombed an abortion clinic and a lesbian night club in Atlanta. The feds had dozens of suspects, but no real leads. Until Birmingham. Rudolph bombed the New Woman All Women clinic in Birmingham on January 29, 1998. He might have slipped away and continued to bomb and terrorize the South, but for the brave actions of UAB student, Jermaine Hughes. Hughes followed Rudolph and got a license plate number, setting off the largest manhunt in American history.
