Deep Cover is a true crime show about double lives, from our friends at Pushkin Industries. Their new season, The Family Man, is a story about how families can deceive each other and the lengths we'll go to to protect our loved ones. Elise and Marissa grew up in a seemingly normal house in the suburbs of St. Louis, but it was a house built on secrets. There were things their father never told them—like how he really made his money. One night, the police showed up, raided their house, and seized boxes of evidence. Hours later, the sisters turned on the TV and saw something surreal: their father in the middle of a police chase. The local news identified him as “The Boonie Hat Bandit”. The girls were stunned. They struggled to accept the truth: Dad had been living a double life. How long had he been lying to them? What had he done? And who, exactly, was their father? Find Deep Cover: The Family Man wherever you get podcasts.

Lo que la ciencia dice sobre el rencor, el perdón y cómo dejar de cargar lo que ya no te pertenece¿Hay alguien en tu vida a quien no has podido perdonar, aunque haya pasado mucho tiempo?En este capítulo exploramos por qué el rencor se siente como justicia pero en realidad nos está enfermando — desde los niveles de cortisol hasta la presión arterial y el sistema inmune. Todo basado en los estudios del Dr. Fred Luskin, psicólogo y director del Stanford Forgiveness Project, el proyecto de investigación más grande del mundo dedicado exclusivamente al perdón.Hablamos del estudio con 259 personas que aprendieron a perdonar sin buscar a quien las lastimó — todo el trabajo fue interno. De las madres en Irlanda del Norte que perdieron a sus hijos en el conflicto armado y lograron reducir su dolor casi a la mitad en una semana. De por qué perdonar no significa reconciliarte. Y de los pasos prácticos que puedes empezar a aplicar hoy.Preguntas para reflexionar:¿Hay alguien en tu vida a quien no has podido perdonar, aunque haya pasado mucho tiempo?¿Cuánto espacio de tu cabeza ocupa esa historia?¿Sientes que soltar eso sería como darle la razón al otro — o ya sabes que cargar con eso te está costando más a ti?¿Y si probaras contarte esa historia de otra manera?Te las dejo aquí para que las revises con calma.Si sientes que esto es más grande de lo que puedes procesar sola, busca ayuda. La terapia es un espacio increíble para desmenuzar lo que cargamos.Tags / Palabras clave: rencor, perdón, Fred Luskin, Stanford Forgiveness Project, Forgive for Good, grudge, soltar, salud emocional, cortisol, estrés, budismo, segunda flecha, Irlanda del Norte, reconciliación, terapia, bienestar, Marisa Lazo, Compartiendo con Marisa LazoReferencias:Luskin, F.

This is a special edition of the New York Institute for the Humanities' Vault podcast. On October 10, 2025, NYU's Journalism Institute hosted a day-long conference titled Podcast Intellectuals: Producing Original Scholarship with Audio. Over the course of three panels, scholars, podcasters, and journalists discuss how academics might employ the techniques of narrative audio as part of their research. In this second panel of the day, Ellen Horne moderates a conversation with Chenjerai Kumanyika, Barry Lam, and Julia Barton, three veterans who have made a specialty of working on creative, idea-informed series. Professor Ellen Horne directs the Podcasting and Audio Reportage concentration at NYU's Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute.

Her new documentary, Age of Audio, tells the story of the podcast from birth to boom to today. NYU Professor Chenjerai Kumanyika specializes in using narrative non-fiction audio journalism to critique the ideology of American historical myths about issues such as race, the Civil War, and policing. His podcast Empire City was chosen by the New York Times as one of the best podcasts of 2024. He was the co-creator, co-executive producer and co-host of Uncivil, a podcast on the Civil War, and he is the collaborator for Scene on Radio's Season 2 “Seeing White,” and Season 4 on the history of American democracy.

We’re gearing up for an all new season of Medal of Honor in 2026, but in the meantime we're sharing episodes from another Pushkin Industries podcast we think you'll like. It’s called Deep Cover and it’s all about people who lead double lives and the lengths they’ll go to deceive others. This last season, they covered the stolen valor story of Sarah Cavanaugh. Sarah Cavanaugh is a civilian woman who claimed to be a decorated veteran, a Marine who saved her comrades, and a young woman fighting cancer. She was everything people wanted her to be—until she wasn’t. Turns out, no one knew the real Sarah. Lies tend to be fragile, wilting under their own weight as they get bigger. Not in the case of Sarah Cavanaugh. The bigger her lies grew, the more real they became. But she never served in the military, never received any awards, and defrauded veteran organizations out of hundreds of thousands of dollars.Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Jake Halpern and investigative journalist Jess McHugh unravel this epic six-year deception that upended the lives of countless people. Here's episode 1 of Deep Cover: The Truth About Sarah (00:16). Stay tuned to hear the full six-episode series on this feed throughout the next few weeks. We’re committed to making Medal of Honor even better, and you can help!

In this episode of Gangland Wire, Gary Jenkins, a former KCPD Intelligence Detective, is joined by Lydia Jean Kott (LJ), a producer at Pushkin Industries, the company founded by Malcolm Gladwell. LJ brings us inside the making of Chinatown Sting, a gripping new podcast that uncovers the fascinating and little-known story of Chinese organized crime, China White heroin, and characters like Machinegun Johnny in New York's Chinatown during the 1980s. LJ explains how her interest in the case was sparked by a personal connection—her boyfriend's mother was a federal prosecutor involved in the original sting. That legendary case centered on heroin smuggled from Hong Kong into Chinatown, hidden in packages and distributed through a network of mahjong-playing mothers. What began with a flagged parcel at the post office unraveled into a high-stakes undercover investigation. We explore how law enforcement managed to penetrate this tight-knit immigrant community, the risks taken by prosecutors like Beryl Howell, and the difficult moral choices faced by those caught in the middle—including a woman forced to choose between betraying a friend or saving herself. LJ also delves into the history of Chinatowns in America, where family associations and Tongs—formed initially as mutual aid societies—became intertwined with the vice industry. She connects this legacy to gangs like the Flying Dragons and their ties back to organized crime in Hong Kong. Our discussion is not just about drugs, gangs, and federal stings—it's about storytelling, community, and the pursuit of survival. LJ shares how she and her co-reporter pieced the story together over the course of years of interviews and archival research, giving voice to people often overlooked in the larger mob narrative. If you're fascinated by organized crime, hidden histories, or the way law enforcement takes on international networks, Chinatown Sting is a podcast you won't want to miss.

Malcolm Gladwell is a man of many theories – he's made a career of it through his books and podcasts through Pushkin Industries. This week, Ben and Max bring on the author and Revisionist History host to get his current theories about the state of podcasting, how that industry can extend your career, and why he's betting on narrative shows when everyone else is running towards chat shows. They also discuss his take on Joe Rogan as a “tightly muscled possum,” and why he's skeptical of the power of the internet and optimistic about America.

"That is the main difference between storytelling for the ear and writing, is that the cost of revisions is so much higher," says Julia Barton.We have Julia Barton. Julia was the third hire, I think I have that right, with Pushkin Industries, the podcast giant founded by Malcolm Gladwell. She's the executive editor of Pushkin and helped develop Revisionist History and Against the Rules, the latter by the journalist and uber best seller Michael Lewis. She, quite literary, edits with her ears.I met Julia briefly at the Power of Narrative Conference in Boston, where she's also a Nieman Fellow, as her talk followed mine. I did not attend her talk and I feel great shame about that, but my battery was in the negative after my talk and I just needed to disappear, the plight of the introvert. I could have learned a LOT since her talk was about the grammar of audio stories. I atoned by inviting her on the podcast to talk about her auditory journey.So Julia has a cool newsletter called Continuous Wave, which is a weekly newsletter exploring the forgotten history of broadcast and all electronic media. It's very specific, which is what you want from a newsletter. She's the founder of RadioWright, she is @bartona104 on IG.

When Arvind Ethan David was a student, he decided to adapt the Douglas Adams novel Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency into a play. Arvind didn't imagine that Adams would show up to see the play (which he did), nor that Arvind would grow up to become a caretaker of Adams' legacy. Arvind just released an audiobook called Douglas Adams: The Ends of The Earth, produced by Pushkin Industries. It features unheard archival audio of Douglas Adams and interviews with friends and colleagues of the late author who ponder what Adams was trying to tell us, and whether the great humorist always meant what he said. I talk with Arvind about the origin of the audiobook, and we hear an excerpt on why Adams publicly rejected the label of being a science fiction author -- even though he had created a sci-fi cultural phenomenon with The Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy.

When and why did emergency sirens get so loud? These are questions that Ben Naddaf-Hafrey, senior producer for Pushkin Industries, tried to answer in a recent episode of Malcolm Gladwell's "Revisionist History" podcast. Naddaf-Hafrey lives opposite a fire station in Brooklyn, which means he is often exposed to the high decibels of an engine's siren. But, as he discovered in his reporting, loud sirens may not be as effective in saving lives as we think. Naddaf-Hafrey discusses what he found and listeners share their experiences with sirens on the streets of New York. Click here to read some of his in-depth reporting on this subject.
Here's a preview of “To Hell with Poverty!”, a new audiobook from Jon King, legendary frontman of iconic post-punk band Gang of Four. “To Hell with Poverty!” documents King's story from a south London slum and working-class background to international success as core musician, lyricist, writer, and producer in the legendary post-punk/funk band Gang of Four. King's memoir takes the reader on a journey full of raucous adventures from his childhood and teenage years, to the height of Gang of Four's success in the seventies and eighties. Thrown off Top of the Pops, truncheoned by police at an anti-Nazi rally, coming of age in the heart of the Leeds music scene and the UK post-punk movement, mingling with Hells Angels and other undesirables, supported by bands like R.E.M. and playing with the likes of the Police, Iggy Pop, and the Buzzcocks―King's time with Gang of Four is rich with jaw-dropping stories.
