This Week's Highlight

IMO: Style Stories

This new spin-off from the former first lady's audio series accompanies the release of a visual tome exploring her style journey. Everything is meticulously crafted (typical of the Obama brand), featuring guests such as ex-Teen Vogue chief Elaine Welteroth and actress Jane Fonda. In the style of the woman herself, the series delivers substance alongside its polish, revealing fascinating perspectives about the pressures she dealt with as the pioneering Black female to occupy the White House.

The Pause

Exam outcomes. The bus. Your big day. We all experience the complex sentiments associated with anticipation. Now imagine waiting for a lover in prison? A baby born via surrogate? Or the period spanning death and resuscitation? This contemplative show, host Katy Davis listens to incredible narratives of dealing with the unknown.

The Interventionist

This series by a major media investigative unit continues their tradition of thorough examinations into controversial topics. Presenter Dyan Neary meets parents whose minors were removed from their care after allegations of abuse were linked to the same doctor, and questions whether an overly cautious strategy was justified.

The Truth Unveiled

Public records inquiries aren't the sexiest topic, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and constitutional lawyer Matt Topic make them a compelling series. The stories they've unearthed by using them in the US comprise obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to admit to a court that the leader's social media posts aren't factual.

The Europeans: Who Does It Best?

This limited series puts EU nations against each other on real estate, childcare and drug policy to determine the top performer. The family support installment explores various issues from Iceland's women's strike to the fact that highly-praised Sweden problematically reduces preschool services if a new sibling arrives. The best childcare system? It's not Scandinavian.
