The Good Immigrant: The Official Podcast is launching alongside a 10th-anniversary edition of the popular essay collection The Good Immigrant, which features essays by writers of color reflecting on race and identity in the UK. The podcast’s editor, Nikesh Shukla, has brought back the original contributors for a series of conversations that examine how discussions around race have evolved—or remained the same—over the past decade. The first episodes feature discussions with comedian Nish Kumar and writer Coco Khan about the symbolism of England’s flags and the role of humor in political commentary. Still Counting, a new podcast from Crooked Media, brings back journalists Nate Silver, Clare Malone, and Galen Druke, who previously worked together at the now-defunct US data journalism site FiveThirtyEight. The show is focused on data analysis but aims to be engaging, with the first episode exploring the aftermath of the killing of Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist, and how public opinion about former President Donald Trump has shifted since the event. Happy Hour With Ina Garten, a new show from Vox, features Ina Garten, the renowned chef and TV personality known as the Barefoot Contessa. The series consists of casual, at-home interviews recorded in Garten’s New York home. Early guests include comedian Kate McKinnon, actress Meryl Streep, and discussions about cultural misunderstandings, such as French social etiquette. The Journey, a collaboration between The New Yorker and In the Dark, investigates the story of a Los Angeles couple who allegedly collected dozens of children born to multiple surrogate mothers. The series delves into whether this was an instance of human trafficking or a misguided attempt to promote childbirth. The story is based on a previous feature by journalist Ava Kofman, who first reported on the couple’s activities. Rough Diamond, a new podcast starting on Wednesday, 23 September, explores the life of David Knight, a man who was convicted in 1965 of stealing the world’s largest uncut diamond but always claimed his innocence. After his release from prison, Knight went on to steal a priceless painting by Vermeer. Hosted by comedian Josie Long, the series uses Knight’s personal letters, audio recordings, and interviews with his nephew to explore his life and the mysteries surrounding his crimes.
