In 1960s Los Angeles, after the catastrophic Watts riots, an outsized character emerged — one who found an unexpected way to unite people across race and class. Odds are you've never heard of him.

Cops and criminals, movie stars and miscreants, even Crips and Bloods — out at the drag strip, Big Willie could get them all to see eye to eye, easing tensions and making L.A. a safer and more unified place. For a time, he was a celebrated figure in L.A. — but today his legend has faded. What caused him to fall into obscurity? Reported, written and hosted by Daniel Miller from the L.A. Times. Produced by L.A. Times Studios and Neon Hum Media. more

More than 13 million Americans may be displaced due to climate change by the end of this century. Where will they move, and who will decide how it happens? 'Leaving The Island,' a new investigative podcast series, reports from the frontlines of the Great Climate Migration, featuring the voices of historically marginalized communities, concerned scientists and the officials tasked to carry it out. Season One focuses on the 2022 resettlement of the primarily Native American community on Isle de Jean Charles, a barrier island at the tip of Louisiana's Terrebonne parish that will be completely underwater by 2050. Albert Naquin, the traditional chief of The Jean Charles Choctaw Nation, had been trying to move his tribe to higher ground for over two decades when Louisiana was awarded nearly $50 million to resettle the residents in 2016. It was the first federally funded effort of its kind, met with great fanfare. But seven years later, the tribal leadership compares it to the Trail of Tears. What went so wrong? 'Leaving the Island' explores this question, as well as a bigger one more Americans will have to face: what happens when to survive, you have to leave the only home you've ever known? 'Leaving The Island' is a collaboration between Amnesty International Media Award-winning investigative journalist Olga Loginova and Peabody-nominated podcast studio Audiation (Kabul Falling, Fat Leonard, Radiant Minds: The World of Oliver Sacks), with editorial support from Type Investigations. For over two years, Olga has reported this story, reviewing more than 2,000 government and tribal records and conducting nearly 100 hours of interviews with subjects. The original investigative piece was published by The Center for Public Integrity and Type Investigations as a part of the 'Harm's Way' series, and was picked up by Mother Jones, Yahoo! News, Civil Beat and others. The series won the SABEW award, was a semifinalist for the 2023 Goldsmith Prize, and was a finalist for the 2023 Dateline Awards for the online series category. For more information about 'Leaving The Island,' see our website, leavingtheislandpod.com. 'Leaving The Island' is an Audiation Original Production. more

The podcast is narrated by Eleanor Reissa, actress and Yiddish theater director, and historical oversight by Professor Samuel Kassow. 'Those Who Were There' podcast features audio from videotaped interviews conducted between 1979 up to the present.

'Today, by adapting our holdings to the podcast format, we have an opportunity to bring these intimate personal accounts of Holocaust survivors and witnesses to a world-wide listenership.

The memories shared express a wide range of experiences before, during and after the Second World War by those who experienced it.

An explosion in Fallujah, Iraq left three dead, a dozen wounded, and for high-ranking officials a dilemma. So, why were the families of the deceased lied to?
