And they never once called it a pivot

The path of the folks who run the In the Dark podcast through these last few months makes my heart sing a little.

If you don't know In the Dark, it's a true crime podcast that was already doing some acclaimed reporting -- in the first series, on the Jacob Wetterling case, and in the second on the framing of Curtis Flowers.

Then the In the Dark team interrupted their original season plans to create a special report on the Coronavirus crisis in Mississippi.

Then, when the Black Lives Matter demonstrations began, the team paused *that* project to assist in reporting on the ground in Minneapolis. This was not to create material for their own podcast. They were supporting the journalists who were already there.

May I be even half this flexible and this attentive when it matters.
