Podcast Spotlight: Looking for a New Show to Listen To? Here’s What’s New in Podcasts This Week!

With so many podcasts being made today, it’s hard to keep up. Luckily, with the help of iHeartRadio’s Podcast Spotlight, you can find something new to listen to every week. Here’s the latest on our iHeartPodcasts including new seasons and episodes:

What caused the once fastest-growing fertility chain in the U.S. to crumble? Kindbody had it all: $300 million in investments, a modern and millennial-friendly aesthetic, even celebrity investors like Gwyneth Paltrow and Chelsea Clinton. But things turned sour as Kindbody found itself riddled with clinical problems and spiraled into a crisis. Tune in each Thursday to “IVF Disrupted: The Kindbody Story,” to discover the dangers of moving too fast in a largely unregulated industry.

In 1987, Tina Wong was a new mother living in Manhattan's Chinatown. After her best friend asked her to receive a package in the mail, she found herself at the center of an international drug smuggling operation involving billions of dollars worth of heroin. Her only way out would be to help the government bring down one of New York’s most notorious gangsters, Johnny Eng, risking everything in the process. Each Monday, join reporters Lidia Jean Kott and Shuyu Wang as they speak to prosecutors, DEA agents, historians, and former gangsters to tell the untold story of “The Chinatown Sting.”

Prowling the depths of the internet is a growing subculture that thrives on anger, isolation and blame: incels, or “involuntary celibates.” Mostly young, white, heterosexual men, incels see themselves as rejected by women and overshadowed by confident, attractive men that they believe they can never be. Their frustration often mutates into open hostility, harassment and, in extreme cases, acts of violence. Through chilling stories, firsthand accounts and expert analysis, “Incels” reveals the human cost of a culture built on hate—and the path forward for those ready to leave it behind. Every Wednesday, hear how these communities operate, why they’re growing and the psychological traps that keep men locked in cycles of resentment.
