Christof Putzel launches podcast American Jihadi

Posted by Michael Putzel • December 02, 2019

My son Christof Putzel’s suspense-filled personal story of his search for and eventual intimate communications with an American-born terrorist launched Dec. 2, 2019, as a widely available podcast released by Endeavor Audio. Episode 1 of American Jihadi, an eight-part weekly series, is available on Apple, Google, Spotify and numerous audio outlets that distribute podcasts via the Internet.

Christof, an award-winning investigative reporter and documentary maker, is executive producer and host of the series that chronicles the transformation of Omar Hammami from a typical high school kid raised in Daphne, Alabama, to a radical Islamist fighting and recruiting for Al Shabab, the international terrorist group based in the failed state of Somalia.

Check out American Jihadi’s first half-hour episode, The Matrix, in Apple iTunes, or wherever you prefer to listen to podcasts.
