The Former First Lady Unveils Fashion Secrets: Must-Listen Podcasts This Week
Pick of the Week
IMO: The Look
This new spin-off of the former first lady's IMO podcast accompanies the publication of a hardcover volume documenting her style journey. Everything is meticulously crafted (in true Obama fashion), featuring guests such as former Teen Vogue editor Elaine Welteroth and iconic performer Jane Fonda. Similar to the host, the series offers depth alongside its style, revealing fascinating perspectives about the challenges she encountered as the pioneering Black female to reside in the White House.
The Pause
Exam outcomes. The bus. Your wedding day. We're familiar with the mixed emotions associated with expectation. Now imagine expecting a jailed romantic interest? A child delivered by a gestational carrier? Or the time between clinical death and revival? This reflective podcast, narrator Katy Davis collects incredible narratives of navigating such uncertainty.
The Prevention Expert
This production by a renowned production house upholds their tradition of in-depth reporting into contentious subjects. Journalist Dyan Neary interviews families whose minors were taken away after allegations of abuse were made by the same doctor, and probes whether an overly cautious strategy was appropriate.
Disclosure
Public records inquiries aren't the sexiest topic, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and First Amendment attorney Matt Topic transform them into a compelling series. The revelations they've discovered through these methods in the US feature obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to admit to a court that the leader's social media posts aren't factual.
EU Nations: Best Practices
A new miniseries puts EU nations in competition on accommodation, early education and substance regulations to determine the top performer. The childcare episode analyzes multiple topics from Iceland's women's strike to the fact that highly-praised Sweden problematically reduces childcare for toddlers if their parents have another baby. The best childcare system? It isn't from Scandinavia.
