This Week's Highlight

IMO: The Look

This new spin-off of the former first lady's IMO podcast accompanies the release of a visual tome chronicling her style journey. It's a highly polished affair (as expected from the Obamas), with appearances by including former Teen Vogue editor Elaine Welteroth and iconic performer Jane Fonda. Much like Michelle personally, the show offers depth together with its glamour, revealing important details about the challenges she faced as the pioneering Black female to live in the White House.

On Hold

Exam outcomes. The bus. Your marriage ceremony. We all experience the conflicting feelings linked to anticipation. Now imagine awaiting an incarcerated partner? A baby born via surrogate? Or the time between passing away and being revived? In this thoughtful series, narrator Katy Davis hears remarkable accounts of navigating such uncertainty.

The Interventionist

This production by an established audio team continues their tradition of in-depth reporting into contentious subjects. Journalist Dyan Neary meets families whose kids were removed from their care after claims of mistreatment were attributed to one physician, and probes whether a preventive measure was the right one.

The Truth Unveiled

Government document petitions may seem boring, but reporter Jason Leopold and First Amendment attorney Matt Topic turn them into an engaging show. The revelations they've discovered by using them in the US comprise obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to testify under oath that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.

EU Nations: Best Practices

A new miniseries places European countries head to head on housing, childcare and substance regulations to establish the leading example. The childcare episode examines different concerns from Iceland's women's strike to the fact that highly-praised Sweden nightmarishly limits childcare for toddlers if a new sibling arrives. The top-ranked support service? It isn't from Scandinavia.
