Michelle Obama Shares Outfit Stories: Must-Listen Podcasts This Week
Pick of the Week
IMO: Fashion Focus
This new spin-off of the former first lady's IMO podcast aligns with the launch of a coffee-table book documenting her wardrobe transformation. The production is sleek (as expected from the Obamas), featuring guests including style expert Elaine Welteroth and Hollywood legend Jane Fonda. Much like the woman herself, the show provides meaning together with its polish, disclosing significant insights about the pressures she dealt with as the inaugural African American first lady to occupy the White House.

A child delivered by a gestational carrier? Or the time between passing away and being revived? This reflective podcast, narrator Katy Davis collects incredible narratives of navigating such uncertainty.

Presenter Dyan Neary speaks with parents whose kids were taken away after allegations of abuse were linked to the same doctor, and probes whether an overly cautious strategy was the right one.
The Truth Unveiled
Public records inquiries might sound dry, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and legal expert Matt Topic make them a compelling series. The information they've obtained through these methods in the US comprise obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to testify under oath that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.

The childcare episode analyzes various issues from Iceland's women's strike to the fact that highly-praised Sweden problematically reduces daycare for young children if the family expands. The finest provider of childcare? Surprisingly, it's not Nordic.
