iHeartRadio launches season two of "Atlanta Monster," a true crime podcast with over 36 million downloads. This second season will focus on another notorious criminal, the Zodiac Killer, with 15 new episodes. Throughout each, Payne Lindsey (host of "Up and Vanished" and "Atlanta Monster") and Matt Frederick (host of "Stuff They Don't Want You To Know") lead listeners through the Zodiac Killer's horrific murders. Season two's first episode premiered on iHeartRadio's broadcast stations Wednesday night.

Season two leads listeners through the horrific murders and communal terror that unfolded in four Northern California communities between December 1968 and October 1969, and what we know about the unknown "monster" behind them. Throughout each episode, Lindsey and Frederick analyze each fact of the case as they interview investigators, journalists and family members of the victims.

When the notorious killer went about his gruesome work, he regularly mocked the police and the public by sending taunting, boastful, threatening letters containing confusing cryptograms to the Bay Area newspapers. Throughout the exhaustive search, there were 2,500 Zodiac suspects, yet none strong enough to make an arrest, making this one of history's biggest, heinous unsolved crimes.

The first two episodes are now available online across the iHeartPodcast Network and everywhere podcasts are heard.
