IMO: Style Stories
This new spin-off from the former first lady's audio series accompanies the launch of a coffee-table book chronicling her wardrobe transformation. It's a highly polished affair (in true Obama fashion), with appearances by such as former Teen Vogue editor Elaine Welteroth and actress Jane Fonda. Much like Michelle personally, the series provides meaning alongside its polish, revealing significant insights about the expectations she dealt with as the pioneering Black female to live in the White House.
The Pause
Exam outcomes. Your ride. Your marriage ceremony. We all experience the conflicting feelings associated with anticipation. Now imagine waiting for a lover in prison? The arrival of a surrogate baby? Or the time between clinical death and revival? This reflective podcast, host Katy Davis collects extraordinary stories of dealing with the unknown.
The Interventionist
This series from an established audio team upholds their reputation of thorough examinations into contentious subjects. Presenter Dyan Neary speaks with families whose kids were placed in foster care after reports of harm were attributed to a single medical professional, and probes whether a "better safe than sorry" approach was the right one.
The Truth Unveiled
Public records inquiries might sound dry, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and constitutional lawyer Matt Topic make them a lively listen. The stories they've unearthed through these methods in the US comprise obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to testify under oath that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.
The Europeans: Who Does It Best?
This limited series positions member states in competition on housing, childcare and narcotics laws to establish the best. The parenting segment examines different concerns from Iceland's women's strike to the reality that highly-praised Sweden nightmarishly limits preschool services if a new sibling arrives. The finest provider of childcare? It's not Scandinavian.
