The Engagement | I Could Write a Book | 8

Love is that first breathless glance. That person you lust after. That person you fall too hard for.&nbsp;But “happily ever after” ain’t ever in the cards. In fact, it’s more like, “Hurry up before my husband gets home!”&nbsp;And that is True Love. From Wondery, True Love is a weekly fictional series of scandalous love stories that are sexy, funny and filled to the brim with heartache. It’s the marriage of your favorite nighttime soap opera with your favorite juicy beach read. True Love explores the obstacles and challenges of walking the path to happily ever after...or happy for the moment. Co-hosted by Amber Reauchean Williams and Malcolm Barrett. You can listen to all 6 seasons exclusively and ad-free on Wondery+. Find Wondery+ in Apple Podcasts or the Wondery App.

Every summer for the past seven decades, 50 high school seniors—one from every state—descend on Mobile, Alabama to take part in one of the country’s most lucrative scholarship competitions for teen girls. 




The Competition takes you behind the scenes of the Distinguished Young Women (DYW) program, and follows seven girls as they experience the highs and lows of competing for two weeks, away from home and under the most high-stress circumstances. Some girls enter for the money, some for prestige. All of them are used to being the best and the brightest. But only one will walk away with the top prize.




Host Shima Oliaee (Dolly Parton’s America, Pink Card) was Nevada’s contestant in 2001. More than 20 years later, she returns to Alabama as a judge. What can two weeks with 50 of the country’s most ambitious teens tell us about girlhood in America?

In the US, hip hop reigns as the genre that influences every aspect of our culture. From fashion to film, the dominance of this prolific sound can be traced back to one year - 1988.




From Public Enemy to The Fresh Prince, these twelve months gave rise to the superstars and styles that still resonate in songs released today. Through the unique perspective and personal experiences of Will Smith, Class of ’88 reveals the milestone moments, albums and artists that inspired a sonic evolution and secured 1988 as hip hop’s most important year. Rich with archival material, new interviews with hip hop’s biggest stars, and personal recollections from Will himself, Class of ’88 delivers fresh untold stories from the year that hip hop overcame the forces that were hell bent on blocking its rise.
