On the second episode in this series about Bowe Bergdahl, Sarah Koenig interviews Afghan reporter, Sami Yousafzai and several of his informants that were a part of Bergdahl’s kidnapping. The interview with Yousafzai contains much information from his published article: https://www.thedailybeast.com/us-prisoner-bowe-bergdahls-failed-attempt-to-escape-from-taliban 

 

Episode 2 focusses on the Taliban’s version of what happened to Bowe Bergdahl. Comparing Bergdahl’s version of the story against the Taliban’s creates discrepancies in his story, making him seem like he is lying.

The leaflet below was passed out by the U.S. Army asking for information about a missing soldier.  The leaflet said, “If you do not release the American soldier, you will be hunted.”
