The Former First Lady Unveils Style Insights: Must-Listen Audio Shows This Week
This Week's Highlight
IMO: The Look
This latest series of Michelle Obama's IMO podcast accompanies the release of a coffee-table book exploring her wardrobe transformation. The production is sleek (typical of the Obama brand), featuring guests such as style expert Elaine Welteroth and iconic performer Jane Fonda. Similar to the host, the show offers depth in addition to its glamour, disclosing significant insights about the challenges she faced as the inaugural African American first lady to live in the White House.
Waiting Game
Test results. Your ride. Your wedding day. We all experience the complex sentiments that come with anticipation. Now imagine waiting for a lover in prison? A baby born via surrogate? Or the interval from passing away and being revived? In this thoughtful series, presenter Katy Davis hears extraordinary stories of managing unpredictable situations.
The Preventionist
This series from an established audio team continues their reputation of hard-hitting investigations into controversial topics. Presenter Dyan Neary meets families whose children were placed in foster care after allegations of abuse were attributed to one physician, and questions whether a preventive measure was the right one.
Revelations
Government document petitions aren't the sexiest topic, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and constitutional lawyer Matt Topic transform them into an engaging show. The stories they've unearthed through these methods in the US comprise obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to testify under oath that the leader's social media posts aren't factual.
The Europeans: Who Does It Best?
A new miniseries puts EU nations head to head on real estate, early education and drug policy to identify the leading example. The family support installment examines various issues including Iceland's feminist protest to the fact that highly-praised Sweden severely restricts preschool services if the family expands. The best childcare system? Surprisingly, it's not Nordic.
