World War II with Tom Hanks

The HISTORY Channel | Back Pocket Studios | Audacy

For eighty years, the Second World War has remained the most devastating and defining conflict in human history. World War II with Tom Hanks reexamines the war through the lens of a new century. Told over twenty hours and guided by Tom Hanks, whose lifelong passion for this history has shaped some of the most profound screen portrayals of the era, the series captures the full arc of the war — from the rise of fascism in Europe to the fall of Berlin, from Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima, and the uneasy peace that follows. Each episode uncovers new dimensions of the conflict: the decisions that shaped the battlefield, the unseen networks that sustained the war effort, and the aftershocks that still shape our world today. World War II with Tom Hanks is the definitive retelling of that story for a new generation: a sweeping, deeply human portrait of how the modern world was forged in the fires of global war.

SuperHuman

iHeartPodcasts and Kaleidoscope

SuperHuman is a high-stakes, edge-of-your-seat docuseries that dives into the launch of what many have called the “Doping Olympics” - the Enhanced Games - a controversial new sporting event where performance-enhanced athletes openly compete for a $1 million prize and attempt to push the human body beyond its natural limits.  While the International Olympic Committee condemns it, broadcasters salivate over potential ratings, and critics decry it as grotesque even as they admit they’ll tune in.  The Games ignite urgent questions about ethics, medicine, and the human body itself. From retired Olympians hoping for a comeback, to struggling athletes chasing financial security, to Silicon Valley billionaires and scientists pushing the boundaries of enhancement, this series pulls viewers inside the drama, danger, and allure of sport without a safety net. For the past year, we've embedded with the games and the athletes to answer the high stakes question. What happens when enhancement becomes the norm? Is this the end of fair play or the beginning of a new frontier of human potential? Step inside the experiment with us.

Are We Doomed?

NPR Network

Is the world ending, or does it just feel like it? "Are We Doomed?" investigates the greatest risks facing society, the planet, and our species. What’s real? What’s hype? And how do we actually make it out alive? Nukes. Asteroids. Autocracy. Rogue AI. Climate-driven pandemics. Angry hippopotamuses. Teeth clenched, curiosity engaged, quips ready, this “slightly narrative” podcast explores everything from the existential and the unexpected to the overblown. Award-winning public radio journalist Ben Bradford brings you wild true stories, high-production sound design, and world-class experts answering the questions they never prepared for (“Why is the Earth doing this to us?”). From NuanceTales and distributed by the NPR Network, this show delves into history, science, technology, and the natural world, to help you separate legitimate world-changing risks from doomsday fantasies. Come for the supervolcano under Yellowstone National Park (real), stay to learn why the post-apocalyptic wasteland won’t look like the movies (sorry, you won’t be wandering with a shotgun and a dog), and leave with a better understanding of how our brilliant, bumbling species can chart a path through our current, terrifying adolescence.
