Top Society & Culture Podcasts

SuChin Pak and Kulap Vilaysack host the award-winning weekly comedy podcast, Add to Cart, a podcast about the things we buy, the things we buy into, and what it says about who we are. Every episode the real life friends and self proclaimed Aunties to all, have honest, revealing (and sometimes TMI) conversations about all the big and little things they’re adding to, or removing from, their carts. From sharing what serums they slather on their faces to parenting philosophies, what they’re binging and what products are game changers… the “cart” is a larger metaphor for theirs and their guests' lives.  

Bill Gates and Rashida Jones Ask Big Questions pairs Bill Gates with actress and writer Rashida Jones to tackle some of the biggest questions facing us today: Is it too late to solve climate change? Does everybody lie? Is inequality inevitable? Join them for deep dives into these questions and even a few answers.

Middle of Everywhere shares big stories from the small places we call home. Rich with examples of tribalism and kinship, skepticism and idealism, defeat and triumph, we tell stories of life in rural and small town America. Hosts Ariel Lavery, a transient American who has settled in small town Murray, Kentucky, and Austin Carter (Featured on Seasons 1 & 2), a Murray and rural life native, take the pulse of an overlooked geographic news region. They provide a connection for those who have left, but still identify with small towns, and explore the growing appeal of rural life. A production from WKMS public radio, part of PRX’s Project Catapult with support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, Middle of Everywhere is a narrative podcast with episodes released bi-weekly. It’s available for download on all podcast platforms and online at middleofeverywherepod.com. You can also connect with us on social media @middleofeverywherepod

The media is powered by primary sources. People who were there. People who saw it. People who lived it. Now with a camera in every pocket, phone footage is powering the press. From warzones to wildfires, every person is a cameraman filming one angle of a worldwide documentary. Source Material presents world events through the recordings of those who lived it. Cut out the host, cut out the reporter, and hear the Source Material for yourself. 

Source Material is a multimedia project that takes you behind the headlines and straight to the source. It is also a video series. Watch on VICE Youtube for original episodes.

Through relaxed, honest and relatable conversations, we learn together what these good influence guests have to teach us on topics from mental health to media representation, confidence to climate.
