A self-help podcast for those of us that can't help ourselves. Have you ever looked into a mirror and felt like the person staring back at you is chunky? roly-poly? bloated? tubby? Iconoclastic filmmaker, podcaster, and noted curmudgeon Alan Zweig can relate. Alan has made a career putting himself out there and talking to people about the things that occupy our minds, but we find hardest to talk about - insecurity, obsession, loneliness. He has been unflinchingly honest about all of the things that challenge him - all of the things that is except for the one thing that he thinks about most - his weight. Every episode, Alan invites you to join him for sometimes sad, often hilarious, always very human conversations with friends, special guests, and the occasional expert about weight, health, body image, self esteem and what it’s like to live being or feeling fat. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

TRUE CRIME
Host Leon Neyfakh transports listeners into the day-to-day reality of our country's most pivotal historical events, bringing to life the forgotten twists and turns of the past while shedding light on the present. Benghazi unpacks the 2012 attack in Libya that left four Americans dead, including Ambassador Chris Stevens—and the ensuing political storm, which raised questions about America’s role in the world, established a playbook to weaponize attention in the social media age, and ultimately changed the course of U.S. history. Iran-Contra exposes a secret war, a secret deal, and a scandal that threatened to destroy Ronald Reagan’s presidency—until it didn’t. Bush v. Gore recounts what happened during the contested 2000 election between Al Gore and George W. Bush, and the extraordinary legal battle that unfolded in Florida.

TRUE CRIME
Lizz Melgar Rose went from being interested in true crime to living true crime. Back in 2012, relatives found her mother Sandy Melgar shut in a closet, her hands bound behind her back. Her dad Jim Melgar had been murdered. There was no time to finish the university course Lizz had signed up for, inspired by her teenage fascination with violence and serial killers. She needed to figure out what happened. If it weren't for her strange interest, she believes she’d have been lost. It enabled her to protect her family and herself and helped her try to fit the pieces of a seemingly unsolvable puzzle together. Award-winning journalist and host Maggie Robinson Katz will take you inside the police investigation that followed, inside the courtroom drama as a jury wrestles with who’s responsible for a truly shocking crime, and inside Lizz’s ongoing battle for answers and for justice. Because there is one thing Lizz is convinced of, the wrong person is in prison for her dad’s murder.Hands Tied is a new eight part true crime podcast from iHeartPodcasts and BBC Studios.
