EP72 The Hunt for Bin Laden: Jesse Overman Edits The New Netflix Doc Series
The three episodes were absolutely captivating. Amazing archive, powerful interviews by all of the major players at the time but most of all I loved the editing.

Already a fan of Once Upon a Timeline, he came on the show and what transpired was a masterclass in documentary editing theory. Strap in for this one... it's epic.
