Pick of the Week

IMO: Fashion Focus

This latest series from the former first lady's audio series aligns with the release of a visual tome exploring her wardrobe transformation. Everything is meticulously crafted (as expected from the Obamas), featuring guests including former Teen Vogue editor Elaine Welteroth and Hollywood legend Jane Fonda. Much like Michelle personally, the series delivers substance in addition to its style, uncovering significant insights about the pressures she faced as the pioneering Black female to reside in the White House.

On Hold

Exam outcomes. Your ride. Your marriage ceremony. Everyone knows the conflicting feelings associated with expectation. However, consider awaiting an incarcerated partner? The arrival of a surrogate baby? Or the period spanning clinical death and revival? This contemplative show, narrator Katy Davis collects extraordinary stories of dealing with the unknown.

The Interventionist

This series by a major media investigative unit maintains their tradition of hard-hitting investigations into controversial topics. Host Dyan Neary speaks with families whose kids were removed from their care after reports of harm were attributed to one physician, and probes whether an overly cautious strategy was the right one.

Disclosure

Public records inquiries might sound dry, but reporter Jason Leopold and legal expert Matt Topic transform them into an engaging show. The stories they've unearthed by using them in the US comprise getting Donald Trump's chief of staff to admit to a court that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.

EU Nations: Best Practices

This limited series places European countries in competition on housing, early education and narcotics laws to identify the top performer. The family support installment examines different concerns from Iceland's women's strike to the situation where highly-praised Sweden nightmarishly limits childcare for toddlers if a new sibling arrives. The finest provider of childcare? It's not Scandinavian.
