This Week's Highlight

IMO: The Look

This new spin-off of Michelle Obama's IMO podcast aligns with the launch of a hardcover volume exploring her wardrobe transformation. It's a highly polished affair (as expected from the Obamas), featuring guests such as ex-Teen Vogue chief Elaine Welteroth and actress Jane Fonda. Similar to the woman herself, the show offers depth together with its style, revealing fascinating perspectives about the pressures she faced as the first Black woman to reside in the White House.

Waiting Game

Test results. Public transport. Your wedding day. We're familiar with the mixed emotions that come with anticipation. Now imagine expecting a jailed romantic interest? A child delivered by a gestational carrier? Or the time between passing away and being revived? This reflective podcast, narrator Katy Davis listens to remarkable accounts of managing unpredictable situations.

The Preventionist

This series from an established audio team continues their reputation of hard-hitting investigations into debated issues. Presenter Dyan Neary speaks with families whose minors were placed in foster care after reports of harm were made by a single medical professional, and probes whether an overly cautious strategy was the right one.

The Truth Unveiled

Government document petitions aren't the sexiest topic, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and constitutional lawyer Matt Topic turn them into an engaging show. The revelations they've discovered through these methods in the US comprise 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 in competition on housing, childcare and narcotics laws to establish the leading example. The childcare episode analyzes different concerns including Iceland's feminist protest to the situation where much-vaunted Sweden nightmarishly limits daycare for young children if a new sibling arrives. The finest provider of childcare? It's not Scandinavian.
