Izzy Wong's got a new podcast--and this time she's going to uncover the whole story.

Izzy sets out on an investigation to find the culprit and interviews anyone who might know anything, including teachers, students and even the principal. But when she runs into difficulty finding the truth and is presented with a juicy lead that may or may not be gossip--but brings in lots of new listeners--Izzy finds herself in hot water. Will her podcast get shut down before she has a chance to find the perpetrator?
