From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit's history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, and our universal desire for a savior. Detroit's a tough town, and its residents are even tougher...MORE Hosts Marc Smerling, Zac Stuart-Pontier

In the 1980s the 'male exotic dancers' of Chippendales were everywhere, selling the promise of women's liberation for the price of a few dollars in a g-string. But behind the powerful mullets, oiled pecs, and non-stop parties lies a much darker story of greed, corruption and murder. Historian Natalia Petrzela exposes one of the great, sordid, unexamined stories in American culture.MORE Producer/Network Spotify Podcasts

When April Balascio was 40 years old, something she'd feared for decades was finally proven true. Her father, Edward Wayne Edwards, really was a murderer. The Clearing is about what came after April called a detective in 2009 to tell him about her suspicions — a call that led to her father's arrest and eventual conviction on multiple murders — and tracks the emotional journey as she and host Josh Dean dig back into her childhood, unravel the truth of her father's life, and overturn a viral online narrative that had turned Edward Wayne Edwards into a kind of serial killer caricature...MORE Host Josh Dean

Max B is a Harlem rapper on the brink of stardom. One night he gets wind of a bag full of cash that's sitting in an empty hotel room, and he starts scheming. It would be an easy score in and out, no one gets hurt. But it doesn't go down like that. It all ends in chaos, kidnapping and a dead body. This is the story of a rapper who risked it all for a bag full of money, a robbery where everything went wrong, a messy trial, and a sentence that makes you question who the justice system works for... and who it works against.

17. Mogul

Website Apple Episodes
Mogul is a show about hip hop's most iconic moments, told by the people who lived them. In Season 3, we're telling the story of DJ Screw, a reclusive genius who changed the sound of music forever. An auteur who created his own genre — Chopped and Screwed — Screw slowed music down until it sounded like syrup coming out of your speakers. It quickly became the soundtrack to the city of Houston, before influencing an entire generation of rappers. But the man behind the beats was a mystery to all but his closest collaborators, and to this day remains one of hip-hop's greatest enigmas.MORE Host Brandon Jenkins
