Pre-sale tickets went on sale today for the upcoming evening at the Kimmel with Serial podcast creators Sarah Koenig and Julie Snyder.

The veteran radio journalists and producers will be in town on May 14th for a live presentation that delves into the creation of their riveting 12-part NPR series, which made history by becoming the fastest podcast to reach 5 million downloads in iTunes history.

“Using some of their favorite tape, they’ll tell personal behind-the-scenes stories, explain how they constructed certain episodes, and allow the audience to follow the ups and downs of creating a new form of modern journalism,” reads the Kimmel description.

Tickets officially go on sale March 19th, but you can take advantage of the pre-sale deal by purchasing your tickets here with the code “ALIAS.” Tickets range from $35 to $99. The latter price gets you in to a pre-show meet and greet with Koenig and Snyder. More information can be found here.
