The Truth Unveiled

Public records inquiries aren't the sexiest topic, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and legal expert Matt Topic turn them into a lively listen. The stories they've unearthed through these methods in the US feature persuading the former president's aide to admit to a court that the president doesn't mean what he tweets.

The Europeans: Who Does It Best?

The childcare episode analyzes multiple topics from Iceland's women's strike to the situation where highly-praised Sweden severely restricts preschool services if their parents have another baby. The top-ranked support service? It isn't from Scandinavia.
