Believe Her is true crime, upside down. In September 2017, young mom Nikki Addimando shot and killed her partner, Chris Grover. She was sentenced to nineteen years to life in prison for murder. Through rare access to police audio, a month-long trial, conversations with Nikki, and original reporting, journalist Justine van der Leun lays out the killing, the evidence, and the aftermath. As this six-part series unfolds, listeners will put together different pieces of a disturbing puzzle. One thing is clear: perception ≠ reality. Believe Her is a riveting chronicle that grapples with assumptions we make about domestic and sexual violence, the long reach of trauma, and the ways in which survival is criminalized, leaving us shocked at how far people will go to avoid seeing what's right in front of them. From Lemonada Media and Spiegel & Grau.

Ever wish someone could just tell you the right thing to say to your kid? Me too. Parenting brings us the greatest gifts, and it can be messy, confusing, and downright exhausting. I’m Dr. Susan Swick, a child and adolescent psychiatrist. I’m also a mom of 4. And I believe if you can talk about it with your kids, you can tackle it. We can make it Talkaboutable. This season, I’ll hear from parents about what’s keeping them up at night, as well as experts who share real strategies that actually feel doable. Because when our kids handle even the most difficult situations alongside a caring adult, the hard moments become more bearable, and the good moments become even better.
