Pick of the Week
IMO: Style Stories
This fresh installment of the former first lady's IMO podcast aligns with the launch of a coffee-table book exploring her wardrobe transformation. The production is sleek (typical of the Obama brand), with appearances by such as ex-Teen Vogue chief Elaine Welteroth and Hollywood legend Jane Fonda. In the style of the woman herself, the podcast delivers substance together with its polish, disclosing significant insights about the expectations she faced as the inaugural African American first lady to reside in the White House.
Waiting Game
Test results. Your ride. Your wedding day. Everyone knows the conflicting feelings associated with waiting. Now imagine awaiting an incarcerated partner? A baby born via surrogate? Or the time between passing away and being revived? This reflective podcast, narrator Katy Davis collects incredible narratives of managing unpredictable situations.
The Preventionist
This podcast by an established audio team maintains their tradition of hard-hitting investigations into controversial topics. Presenter Dyan Neary interviews caregivers whose kids were taken away after reports of harm were linked to one physician, and examines whether a preventive measure was the right one.
The Truth Unveiled
Public records inquiries may seem boring, but reporter Jason Leopold and legal expert Matt Topic make them an engaging show. The information they've obtained by using them in the US include obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to admit to a court that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.
EU Nations: Best Practices
This special production positions member states against each other on accommodation, early education and substance regulations to determine the leading example. The family support installment explores various issues including Iceland's feminist protest to the situation where much-vaunted Sweden problematically reduces childcare for toddlers if the family expands. The top-ranked support service? Surprisingly, it's not Nordic.
