For a lot of creators, output slows down over the summer months. But not CBC Podcasts! Today we share some of their newest releases.

The Kill List is a six-part series hosted by Mary Lynk that centres around the death of human rights activist Karima Baloch. When Baloch was found drowned off the shores of Toronto, an investigation into her mysterious death led all the way back to Pakistan, the country she had recently fled.

Leah speaks with The Kill List's host Mary Lynk to find out why she was so determined to share this story despite the many risks.

Next, Kuper Island is a new eight-part series that returns to one of Canada's most notorious residential schools. Hosted by Duncan McCue, the series tells the stories of four students: three who survived and one who didn't.

Plus, we share a clip from Someone Knows Something's timely new series The Abortion Wars, and to add a bit of levity to the mix we turn to Tai Asks Why to explain why our memories are so imperfect.

Featuring: The Kill List | Kuper Island | Someone Knows Something | Tai Asks Why
