At a time when we're debating where policing is going, we're going to tell you where the police came from. Guided by Peabody award-winning host Chenjerai Kumanyika, Empire City will provide the first accessible narrative history of the American police and its place in popular culture. Who are the police? And why were police departments created in the first place? To find answers, we're going to tell the origin story of the largest police force in the world: The NYPD. We begin in the late 1800's at a moment when the entire police force was on trial. It's the biggest corruption scandal in the history of the NYPD, and it all plays out like a high stakes courtroom drama. What follows is the action-packed account of how the NYPD got to this point and what happened next. It involves Black abolitionists fighting slave patrols in the courts of Gotham; two rival police forces duking it out for power at City Hall; the origins of the true crime genre; and how the NYPD spread their tactics worldwide.Listen to Empire City wherever you get your podcasts: Wondery.fm/Empire_City.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When Elon Musk posted a video of himself arriving at Twitter HQ carrying a white sink along with the message “let that sink in!” It marked the end of a dramatic takeover. Musk had gone from Twitter critic to “Chief Twit” in the space of just a few months but his arrival didn't put an end to questions about his motives. Musk had earned a reputation as a business maverick. From PayPal to Tesla to SpaceX, his name was synonymous with big, earth-shattering ideas. So, what did he want with a social media platform?

This is a podcast we think you'll love. The Secret History of the Estonia is an eight-part documentary series investigating the mystery behind why a passenger ferry sank in the Baltic Sea in 1994 – going down in less than an hour, killing 852 people. This was Europe's worst peacetime shipping disaster since the Titanic, and many people remain convinced the truth behind the sinking has been covered-up. To this day the wreck lies on the seabed; the bodies were never recovered as the authorities declared it a burial site. Laws were introduced to make it illegal to dive to the wreck and attempts were even made to bury it in rubble. This has raised the question of whether there's something down there the authorities don't want found. Journalist Stephen Davis travelled to Sweden and Estonia for the series, to meet those at the centre of the story. Listeners will hear unbelievable eye-witness accounts from survivors of the sinking, heart-wrenching testimonies from victims' families, and detailed inside-information from investigators who've been working on the case for years. The investigation takes Stephen on a journey back to the Cold War, and to a world of secrets, spies and smuggling operations. Binge the entire season now, wherever you get your podcasts.

Today, we're setting up Celia Aniskovich, New York City-based director and producer, well known for her co-production of How to Fix a Drug Scandal and her production of Surviving Jefferey Epstein. In 2021, she released a six-part podcast series for Wondery called the Spy Affair about Maria Butina and is working on a feature length film about disability rights. She recently read and loved How to Stop Time by Matt Haig and A Lesson Before Dying by Earnest Gaines. She considers herself a romantic, and her dream Saturday is a loungey morning with pastries and a long walk. If tattoos only lasted one year, she'd get the line “Do it for the Fat Lady” from her favorite book, Franny and Zooey, though she says she doesn't love classics. She thinks everyone should watch One Tree Hill and she is a snob about snobby people.
