  • What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.
    Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to Robbie Williams and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.

  • For over 30 years, the murder of 23-year-old Dana Ireland haunted the island of Hawai‘i, leaving behind a tangled web of suspicion, betrayal, and unanswered questions. Three men were convicted. The case was closed. Justice was served. Or so everyone thought.

    Hosted by Amanda Knox - an exoneree, journalist, public speaker and best-selling author - this Season of THREE takes you deep into a case that was never as simple as it seemed. Through never-before-heard interviews and unwarranted access, we’ll walk you through this notorious crime and how it impacted three families - The Ireland’s, The Schweitzer’s and The Pauline’s all in very different ways. And the shocking discovery that changed everything.

    Someone got away with murder. Until now.

    This is THREE Season 2: Murder in Vacationland.

  • I’m Gavin Newsom.

    And, it’s time to have a conversation. It’s time to have honest discussions with people that agree AND disagree with us.

    It's time to answer the hard questions and be open to criticism, and debate without demeaning or dehumanizing one other.

    I will be doing just that on my new podcast – inviting people on who I deeply disagree with to talk about the most pressing issues of the day and inviting listeners from around the country to join the conversation.

    THIS is Gavin Newsom.

  • Mobilizing students on 2,000 college and high school campuses across the country, Charlie has your inside scoop on the biggest news of the week and what's really going on behind the headlines.

  • Ken Tekiela was a celebrated Chicago firefighter and a loving father of two who led a secret double life as a hitman for the Chicago mafia. Is it even possible to keep a life of crime hidden from your wife and kids for two decades? Yes, it is. I know because Ken is my father. In 2013, after a lifetime of deception, he broke down and told me everything, and our whole world changed…

    CROOK COUNTY is the shocking true-crime podcast about my father's rise through the ranks of the legendary organized crime syndicate, the Chicago Outfit. From whorehouse doorman at the age of 17, to ruthless assassin in his 20's, and the many years that followed covering up crimes for the mafia and crooked cops alike while working as a firefighter/paramedic for the Chicago Fire Department. To finally, moving to the suburbs with his new wife and kids and trying desperately to put it all behind him, until it all came crashing down. We explore in great depth and detail my father’s life of crime and its profound and lasting impact on my family to this very day.


    From Tenderfoot TV and iHeartPodcasts, I’m Kyle Tekiela, welcome to CROOK COUNTY.

  • If youโ€™re interested in unexpected conversations that go uncharted places, are remotely self-aware and like to laugh, then please join me as I continue to find my public voice on Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky. (Thatโ€™s me.) I will have honest, wide-ranging interviews with all kinds of people โ€“ recognizable names, regular folks, experts and friends โ€“ about what it means to reclaim whatโ€™s been lost or taken in the broadest sense. Every week, Iโ€™ll draw from my own unique experiences (like say, surviving a global scandal at 24 years old), and delve into the personal and often messy ways people find their way back to themselves. And because I love a good tangent, weโ€™ll probably also touch on other stuff, too.

    Follow Reclaiming on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. Watch new episodes on YouTube, or listen to Reclaiming early and ad-free by joining Wondery+ in the Wondery App, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify.
