We want to share a first listen of a new podcast we're working on at WBUR.

Violation tells the story of two families bound together by an unthinkable crime. It explores America's opaque parole system and asks: How much time in prison is enough? Who gets to decide? And, when someone commits a terrible crime, what does redemption look like?

Listen to the trailer and if you like what you hear, head over to the Violation feed wherever you get your podcasts and hit subscribe so you'll get new episodes when they drop, beginning March 22.

Magic Pill, Episode #20: Looking Good Naked

New ideas are likelier to occur to us when we're moving than when we're not. We take a look at Beethoven's daily routine as an example.

Magic Pill, Episode #19: What Does Beethoven’s 5th Have To Do With Walking?
