Michelle Obama Reveals Outfit Stories: Top Podcasts This Week

This Week's Highlight

IMO: Style Stories

This fresh installment of Michelle Obama's IMO podcast aligns with the launch of a hardcover volume documenting her style journey. The production is sleek (as expected from the Obamas), with appearances by such as ex-Teen Vogue chief Elaine Welteroth and iconic performer Jane Fonda. Similar to the host, the show provides meaning alongside its style, uncovering fascinating perspectives about the expectations she dealt with as the inaugural African American first lady to reside in the White House.

On Hold

Test results. Public transport. Your marriage ceremony. We all experience the mixed emotions linked to waiting. But what about waiting for a lover in prison? A baby born via surrogate? Or the interval from passing away and being revived? This reflective podcast, host Katy Davis hears remarkable accounts of managing unpredictable situations.

The Prevention Expert

This production by a major media investigative unit upholds their legacy of thorough examinations into contentious subjects. Presenter Dyan Neary interviews caregivers whose children were removed from their care after claims of mistreatment were attributed to one physician, and probes whether a preventive measure was appropriate.

Disclosure

Public records inquiries might sound dry, but journalist Jason Leopold and First Amendment attorney Matt Topic make them an engaging show. The stories they've unearthed through these methods in the US feature obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to admit to a court that the leader's social media posts aren't factual.

European Comparison: Top Performers

This limited series positions member states head to head on accommodation, childcare and substance regulations to establish the top performer. The childcare episode explores different concerns from Iceland's women's strike to the situation where renowned Sweden severely restricts daycare for young children if their parents have another baby. The finest provider of childcare? It's not Scandinavian.
