IMO: Fashion Focus

This latest series of Michelle Obama's audio series coincides with the publication of a visual tome chronicling her fashion evolution. Everything is meticulously crafted (as expected from the Obamas), with appearances by such as ex-Teen Vogue chief Elaine Welteroth and actress Jane Fonda. Similar to the woman herself, the podcast offers depth together with its style, disclosing important details about the pressures she encountered as the first Black woman to occupy the White House.

Waiting Game

Medical reports. Your ride. Your marriage ceremony. We're familiar with the complex sentiments associated with expectation. However, consider awaiting an incarcerated partner? A child delivered by a gestational carrier? Or the interval from passing away and being revived? In this thoughtful series, narrator Katy Davis hears remarkable accounts of navigating such uncertainty.

This series by a renowned production house continues their tradition of thorough examinations into debated issues. Presenter Dyan Neary meets parents whose kids were taken away after claims of mistreatment were made by a single medical professional, and examines whether an overly cautious strategy was appropriate.

Disclosure

Public records inquiries might sound dry, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and constitutional lawyer Matt Topic turn them into a compelling series. The information they've obtained via these requests in the US comprise obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to admit to a court that the commander-in-chief's tweets aren't literal.

EU Nations: Best Practices

This limited series puts EU nations against each other on housing, early education and drug policy to determine the best. The parenting segment examines multiple topics from Iceland's women's strike to the situation where much-vaunted Sweden nightmarishly limits childcare for toddlers if a new sibling arrives. The top-ranked support service? Surprisingly, it's not Nordic.
