Trailer: 'Crooked Power'

On Sept. 30, 2010, the South American nation of Ecuador descended into chaos. The national police force had hit the streets in a large protest demanding better benefits. Ecuador's brash and theatrical authoritarian leader Rafael Correa cracked down on the protesting police and cut media coverage, leaving the nation's citizens wondering what happened. In the aftermath, Ecuador's largest newspaper, El Universo, published an opinion piece demanding answers, and Correa went after the newspaper, threatening prison time and millions of dollars in fines. The Drag, the podcast production house behind the hit true crime podcasts Darkness: The Orange Tree and Austin Bomber, tells the story of the newspaper family that fought back against a tyrant, with dire implications for their family and for press freedom across the Americas.

Introducing 'Forsaken'

Introducing a new series from The Drag: "Forsaken." "Forsaken" is a series that explores the systems that both enhance and oppress the lives of the more than 29 million people living in Texas. Each episode will address issues that Texans face each day – the good and the bad. We'll explore the criminal justice system, Texas politics, civil rights, social issues and even a little bit of history. Texas is the second-most diverse state in the nation and has equally diverse stories to tell. As the legendary late Texas singer Billy Joe Shaver sings: "You fathers and you mothers / Be good to one another / Please try to raise your children right / Don't let the darkness take 'em / Don't make 'em feel forsaken / Just lead 'em safely to the light." The first two episodes of "Forsaken" drop Thursday, March 7. Follow "Forsaken" on: Apple Podcasts Spotify Or your favorite podcasting app!

Into the woods with cottagecore

Young people's latest fantasies aren't about fame and fortune. They're about the tranquility and simplicity of a small cottage in the woods with a lot of books to read, bread to bake and raised garden beds to tend. But they aren't fulfilling this fantasy by moving out to the country — they're going online. Request Pending host Sara Schleede explores the internet's latest aesthetic trend, "cottagecore," and the ethical implications of these pastoral daydreams.
