Waiting Game
Test results. Public transport. Your marriage ceremony. We're familiar with the conflicting feelings linked to waiting. Now imagine waiting for a lover in prison? A child delivered by a gestational carrier? Or the time between clinical death and revival? This contemplative show, presenter Katy Davis listens to extraordinary stories of navigating such uncertainty.
The Interventionist
This series from a renowned production house maintains their tradition of in-depth reporting into controversial topics. Host Dyan Neary interviews parents whose kids were removed from their care after claims of mistreatment were linked to the same doctor, and questions whether a preventive measure was justified.
Disclosure
Government document petitions might sound dry, but investigative reporter Jason Leopold and First Amendment attorney Matt Topic transform them into a compelling series. The revelations they've discovered by using them in the US include obtaining confirmation from Trump's assistant to state in legal proceedings that the commander-in-chief's tweets aren't literal.
The Europeans: Who Does It Best?

The family support installment explores various issues including Iceland's feminist protest to the fact that highly-praised Sweden problematically reduces daycare for young children if a new sibling arrives. The top-ranked support service? Surprisingly, it's not Nordic.
