With special permission from last semester’s Advanced Audio and Podcast Reporting class at the Phillip Merrill College of Journalism, the Black Explosion is excited to bring you a podcast on the most fraught Shuttle-UM bus routes of the University of Maryland: Bus 141.

Rumor 141: An investigation into the rumors behind the University of Maryland's 141 commuter bus route and stories of students being offered the choice of riding under the bus in the luggage compartment for a 22-mile journey to and from campus, or having to wait hours for the next bus amid an ongoing transportation shortage. With reporting, production, hosting, and editing from Chris Barylick, Lydia Hurley, Sydney Jackson, Ian Dalrymple, Kayla Nazaire, and Feras Ismail.
