Wondery secured a strong fanbase for its Dr. Death true crime show, and the audience is only going to get bigger. The company announced that it is releasing translations of the program to reach international listeners. Episodes will be released in neutral Spanish, Castilian Spanish, German, French, Mandarin, Portuguese, and Korean. The first two translated episodes were released yesterday, and the rest of the season will be published weekly.
