Michelle Obama Shares Fashion Secrets: Must-Listen Audio Shows This Week
Top Selection
IMO: Fashion Focus
This fresh installment of Michelle Obama's audio series aligns with the publication of a hardcover volume documenting her wardrobe transformation. The production is sleek (as expected from the Obamas), with appearances by such as ex-Teen Vogue chief Elaine Welteroth and Hollywood legend Jane Fonda. Much like the woman herself, the podcast provides meaning together with its glamour, revealing important details about the challenges she dealt with as the pioneering Black female to occupy the White House.
Waiting Game
Test results. The bus. Your marriage ceremony. Everyone knows the complex sentiments linked to expectation. However, consider awaiting an incarcerated partner? A child delivered by a gestational carrier? Or the period spanning clinical death and revival? This reflective podcast, narrator Katy Davis hears remarkable accounts of navigating such uncertainty.
The Preventionist
This series by a major media investigative unit continues their legacy of hard-hitting investigations into controversial topics. Host Dyan Neary meets parents whose minors were placed in foster care after reports of harm were linked to one physician, and examines whether a "better safe than sorry" approach was the right one.
The Truth Unveiled
Public records inquiries aren't the sexiest topic, but journalist Jason Leopold and legal expert Matt Topic turn them into a compelling series. The stories they've unearthed through these methods in the US feature obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to testify under oath that the leader's social media posts aren't factual.
European Comparison: Top Performers
This limited series places European countries in competition on real estate, early education and drug policy to establish the leading example. The childcare episode explores multiple topics from Iceland's women's strike to the situation where highly-praised Sweden severely restricts childcare for toddlers if their parents have another baby. The best childcare system? It's not Scandinavian.
