Emma is a high achieving, middle class girl from west London. She seems destined for a successful career in banking and a comfortable British life. Until she makes a decision that will come to define her. In 2001 Emma marries Bashar al-Assad - the now infamous dictator of Syria.
In the early days, people inside and out of Syria dared to hope. Alongside his beautiful, progressive wife, Bashar promised to modernise the country.
But when the Arab Spring reached Syria in 2011, Bashar's regime showed itself for what it really was: a brutal force, willing to capture and kill ordinary Syrians demanding change. And in all the years that a war raged on, Asma stands by her husband. She seemingly ignored the desperate pleas to stop her husband from killing his own people.
But what did she really know about the atrocities her husband’s government was carrying out? And what choices did she really have? Some people allege that she actually assisted the regime and cashed in on the war, that she herself is a war criminal. Others say she tried to run away but was trapped, held hostage by a regime who threatened her life and her children.
So, who is the real Emma?

Finders and Keepers is a podcast about our attachments to our belongings, from collections to keepsakes, minimalism to maximalism to hoarding and everything in between. Hosted by journalist and recovering hoarder Rachel Kramer Bussel, this weekly interview podcast explores why we hold on to sentimental objects, the joy of collecting books, Lego sets, and more, how major life transitions like moves and home repairs impact our relationships with our stuff, the allure of bulk shopping, and why storage spaces are so popular, to inheritances and the legacies we want to leave behind, why decluttering is so challenging, and more. Whether you treasure an invaluable childhood memento, are always trying to downsize your belongings, or are on the hunt for the latest and greatest item to add to your stash, Finders and Keepers offers personal insights from artists, writers, and enthusiasts who have strong opinions about their favorite things. From a friend group who've jointly owned a teddy bear for 25 years to making miniatures, gender and fashion, and how to "Martha Stewart" a jail cell, no object is too big or too small for us to explore. Follow the show on Instagram @findersandkeeperspod for news and notes about unusual objects, art, and collections.

Neurotics Hal Cruttenden and Ronni Ancona have launched a
podcast, ten years too late, where they seek advice from celebrity friends on how to deal with stress.
They do this while therapeutically completing a jigsaw – clearly a brilliant idea for an audio format – but not helped by their Gen Z producer (who clearly loathes them) and potential sponsors suing them for brand misuse.

The Veil is a chilling true crime podcast that pulls listeners deep into the world’s darkest and most haunting cases. Hosted by Ryan Wolf, each episode is crafted like an immersive thriller - a story told not just through facts, but through atmosphere, tension, and detail that makes you feel as though you’re standing inside the crime scene itself.
These are not urban legends or ghost stories; every case is real, every victim and every clue drawn from documented fact.
From unsolved murders to bizarre disappearances, infamous trials to cold cases that still whisper through history, The Veil strips back the layers of time and rumor to confront the unsettling truths hidden beneath.
With an eye for detail and a voice that guides you through the shadows, Ryan brings both journalistic rigor and cinematic storytelling to each 30-minute episode. What emerges is an experience that is at once gripping and unnerving, reminding us that the scariest stories are not fiction at all.
Pull back The Veil - but beware. Because sometimes, when we lift it, we don’t like what we find.

The pearl clutching about “cancel culture” and “censorship” has become louder and more absurd while also getting more and more play in the media. Journalists Katelyn Burns and Christine Grimaldi see this panic for what it is though: a grift. They take a closer look at these temper tantrums, dispelling myths, laughing at the most outrageous takes, and shedding light on which perspectives are actually being suppressed and left out of the conversation.

Queen Elizabeth II died on September 8th at the age of 96 years old, months after her Platinum Jubilee, her 70th year as the Queen of the United Kingdom. As the world remembers the longest-reigning monarch, her eldest son Prince Charles is now KING Charles III. It’s the moment he was born destined for – and at 73, he’s been waiting a long time. As one era closes, another one begins. Can Prince Charles fill his mother’s shoes? Will the people accept him as king? Is there even a place for monarchy in our modern world? In Born to Rule, NBC’s Keir Simmons talks to journalists and royal insiders who’ve followed Prince Charles for decades to help us understand this man who is now king.
