This Week's Highlight

IMO: The Look

This fresh installment of Michelle Obama's IMO podcast coincides with the publication of a coffee-table book documenting her fashion evolution. The production is sleek (as expected from the Obamas), with appearances by including former Teen Vogue editor Elaine Welteroth and Hollywood legend Jane Fonda. In the style of the host, the series provides meaning together with its polish, uncovering significant insights about the challenges she encountered as the inaugural African American first lady to occupy the White House.

Waiting Game

Exam outcomes. The bus. Your marriage ceremony. We're familiar with the mixed emotions linked to waiting. But what about awaiting an incarcerated partner? A baby born via surrogate? Or the interval from clinical death and revival? This contemplative show, host Katy Davis listens to remarkable accounts of dealing with the unknown.

The Preventionist

This podcast from an established audio team continues their reputation of thorough examinations into contentious subjects. Presenter Dyan Neary speaks with parents whose children were taken away after reports of harm were linked to a single medical professional, and questions whether a preventive measure was appropriate.

The Truth Unveiled

Public records inquiries aren't the sexiest topic, but journalist Jason Leopold and First Amendment attorney Matt Topic transform them into a lively listen. The revelations they've discovered via these requests in the US comprise obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to admit to a court that the commander-in-chief's tweets aren't literal.

EU Nations: Best Practices

This special production positions member states head to head on accommodation, childcare and substance regulations to determine the best. The parenting segment examines various issues from Iceland's women's strike to the fact that highly-praised Sweden severely restricts childcare for toddlers if the family expands. The finest provider of childcare? It isn't from Scandinavia.
