Michelle Obama Unveils Fashion Secrets: Best Audio Shows This Week
Pick of the Week
IMO: Style Stories
This fresh installment from Michelle Obama's audio series coincides with the release of a hardcover volume chronicling her style journey. Everything is meticulously crafted (as expected from the Obamas), featuring guests including ex-Teen Vogue chief Elaine Welteroth and actress Jane Fonda. In the style of the host, the series offers depth in addition to its polish, uncovering fascinating perspectives about the challenges she dealt with as the inaugural African American first lady to reside in the White House.
The Pause
Medical reports. Your ride. Your wedding day. We all experience the mixed emotions that come with waiting. But what about waiting for a lover in prison? A child delivered by a gestational carrier? Or the period spanning clinical death and revival? In this thoughtful series, host Katy Davis hears extraordinary stories of navigating such uncertainty.
The Prevention Expert
This podcast by a renowned production house upholds their reputation of hard-hitting investigations into controversial topics. Presenter Dyan Neary interviews caregivers whose children were placed in foster care after claims of mistreatment were made by one physician, and probes whether an overly cautious strategy was appropriate.
Revelations
Freedom of information requests might sound dry, 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 persuading the former president's aide to testify under oath that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.
EU Nations: Best Practices
This special production places European countries against each other on housing, childcare and narcotics laws to establish the top performer. The family support installment analyzes different concerns from Iceland's women's strike to the fact that highly-praised Sweden problematically reduces preschool services if a new sibling arrives. The finest provider of childcare? It isn't from Scandinavia.
