*Sarah Koenig made a cameo appearance in a Season 2 episode of the animated comedy [[BoJack Horseman]] as a ringtone, parodying her introduction to episodes of the podcast.{{Citation needed|date=January 2017}}
*In November and December 2016 ''Secrets, Crimes and Audiotape'', a radio drama anthology podcast series by [[Wondery]], had a five-episode story arc in the form of a musical satire of ''Serial'''s Season 1, called ''Wait, Wait, Don't Kill Me''.

The story among other things also makes extended use of the MailKimp meme.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://wondery.com/2016/11/17/wait-wait-dont-kill-me/|title=Wondery launches first ever podcast musical Wait Wait Don't Kill Me|date=2016-11-17|work=Wondery - An Audio On-Demand Media Network|access-date=2017-11-08|language=en-US}}</ref>
