IMO: Style Stories
This latest series from the former first lady's IMO podcast accompanies the launch of a coffee-table book chronicling her style journey. Everything is meticulously crafted (typical of the Obama brand), featuring guests such as style expert Elaine Welteroth and Hollywood legend Jane Fonda. Similar to the woman herself, the show provides meaning together with its style, disclosing fascinating perspectives about the challenges she faced as the inaugural African American first lady to reside in the White House.
Waiting Game
Exam outcomes. The bus. Your wedding day. We all experience the complex sentiments linked to expectation. But what about awaiting an incarcerated partner? A baby born via surrogate? Or the period spanning passing away and being revived? In this thoughtful series, narrator Katy Davis collects extraordinary stories of dealing with the unknown.
The Prevention Expert
This production by an established audio team maintains their legacy of thorough examinations into debated issues. Host Dyan Neary meets caregivers whose children were taken away after claims of mistreatment were attributed to one physician, and probes whether a preventive measure was justified.
Revelations
Government document petitions might sound dry, but journalist Jason Leopold and constitutional lawyer Matt Topic transform them into a compelling series. The stories they've unearthed through these methods in the US feature getting Donald Trump's chief of staff to admit to a court that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.
EU Nations: Best Practices
This limited series positions member states against each other on accommodation, parental support and narcotics laws to establish the best. The childcare episode explores different concerns from Iceland's women's strike to the reality that much-vaunted Sweden nightmarishly limits childcare for toddlers if a new sibling arrives. The finest provider of childcare? It's not Scandinavian.
