Why did you choose this theme? 
I chose this theme to capture the essence of pivotal conversations shaping our global response to climate change. This theme reflects my focus on episodes that delve into the intricacies of climate policy-making, highlight the voices leading the charge in climate action, and explore the dynamic interplay between global politics and environmental advocacy.

Through these carefully selected shows, I aim to spotlight the trailblazers who are redefining the boundaries of climate discourse and driving meaningful change at both local and international levels.

This week in Podcast The Newsletter: Lauren Passell writes: "Eight new lesbian bars have opened in the U.S. since Cruising (the lesbian bar road trip podcast) launched in 2021. It’s back for season two, and Sarah Gabrielli, Rachel Karp, and Jen McGinity are taking us to every single one. But this isn’t just a road trip podcast, it’s a time warp. We go back in time, to 1930s San Francisco, to 1990s New Orleans, to meet lesbians in history who were hidden or forgotten, but in one way or another stuck out their necks to protect queer people and the spaces for queer people."

T&J is a limited series devoted to 6th-century Byzantium and the power duo that was Empress Theodora and Emperor Justinian. The podcast follows the couple’s radical romantic relationship alongside the era’s many fascinating antecedents: sex work, circus factions, eunuchs, the very first plague… Roman history podcasts are wildly popular, but most focus on the classical era. Few explore the final centuries of the Roman Empire.

SPOTLIGHT:

The Dossier

FBI Agent Phil Carson has held onto a secret for fifteen years, which will prove for the final time that there was a cover-up of the murder of Hip-Hop Superstar The Notorious B.I.G. by officials at the LAPD. Agent Carson is talking, and journalist Don Sikorski has the FBI Files to prove it. This ground-breaking podcast spans 20 years inside the underbelly of crime in the dark forces of the LAPD that used power and influence to hide the evidence and facts.

LAPD Officers orchestrated the murder of Biggie Smalls. The information contained inside The Dossier will shake the foundation of the LAPD and the City of Los Angeles, defining with evidence who shot and killed Biggie, but more importantly why the power players inside Los Angeles covered it up. The Dossier Season II: The Secret Biggie FBI Files, is a production of Criminal Minded Media, DCP Entertainment, and Action Park Media.
