Michelle Obama Shares Fashion Secrets: Must-Listen Podcasts of the Week
This Week's Highlight
IMO: The Look
This fresh installment from Michelle Obama's IMO podcast accompanies the release of a coffee-table book exploring her fashion evolution. The production is sleek (as expected from the Obamas), with appearances by such as ex-Teen Vogue chief Elaine Welteroth and actress Jane Fonda. In the style of Michelle personally, the podcast offers depth together with its polish, uncovering important details about the pressures she dealt with as the inaugural African American first lady to occupy the White House.
Waiting Game
Medical reports. Your ride. Your big day. Everyone knows the complex sentiments that come with waiting. However, consider waiting for a lover in prison? The arrival of a surrogate baby? Or the period spanning clinical death and revival? This reflective podcast, host Katy Davis collects incredible narratives of navigating such uncertainty.
The Preventionist
This podcast from a major media investigative unit maintains their tradition of hard-hitting investigations into controversial topics. Journalist Dyan Neary speaks with families whose children were taken away after reports of harm were linked to the same doctor, and questions whether an overly cautious strategy was justified.
The Truth Unveiled
Freedom of information requests may seem boring, but journalist Jason Leopold and constitutional lawyer Matt Topic make them a lively listen. The revelations they've discovered by using them in the US feature getting Donald Trump's chief of staff to state in legal proceedings that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.
EU Nations: Best Practices
This special production puts EU nations in competition on accommodation, early education and narcotics laws to establish the top performer. The family support installment analyzes various issues including Iceland's feminist protest to the situation where renowned Sweden nightmarishly limits daycare for young children if their parents have another baby. The finest provider of childcare? It isn't from Scandinavia.
