COMMONS Presents: Inside Kabul
INSIDE KABUL is a multi-award winning series that follows the daily life of two young Afghan women, Marwa and Raha. Both have been recording their daily lives since the arrival of the Taliban in August 2021. Should they stay? Leave? And when they leave, what does exile look like?
As they contemplate their futures, Raha and Marwa exchange and record hundreds of voice notes with noted French journalist Caroline Gillet. What emerges is a raw and incredibly intimate chronicle of two young women coming of age amidst the collapse of the world they had known.
Original podcast broadcast on France INTER / RADIO FRANCE © RADIO FRANCE. Canadaland is proud to premiere the English-language adaptation of this urgent and intimate podcast, building on Commons' crucial season that told the story of Canada’s role in the War in Afghanistan.
COMMONS is a documentary podcast that proves Canada is anything but boring. Each season, host Arshy Mann guides you through the country’s dark underbelly, bringing you stories about crime, corruption and all manner of misdeeds.

In this award-winning investigative podcast, host Maren Machles explores how accountability failures in Washington D.C. impact the lives of people all over the country, and she showcases the investigators, experts, and activists who work to keep our government working for the people.
In the second season, Maren and POGO’s investigative reporters take a look at the Department of Homeland Security. They trace how an agency established to protect the nation from security threats has doubled down on detaining migrants, sometimes in horrifying conditions, while failing to address the more immediate security threat caused by far-right extremism — even within the agency’s own ranks.
In the first season, Maren focused on the department’s Office of Inspector General, revealing a shocking pattern of misconduct that resulted in a failure to investigate some of the most troubling events in recent history.
In 2024, Bad Watchdog was a silver medalist at the New York Festivals Radio Awards and a nominee for the Ambie Awards' Best Politics or Opinion Podcast.

The largest businesses of the world today are set up on the platform model. It is often said that the modern-day capitalist does not own the means of production, but the means of “connection”, and that’s exactly what platform companies such as Amazon, Uber, DoorDash, TopCoder and Zomato do.
It’s worth noting, that Since 2010, there has been a five-fold rise globally in the number of such digital labour platforms that facilitate online work The global south has a large part of this share.
These platform companies are the new, invisible bosses in this datafied world of work, relying heavily on the network effects of data, and algorithmic management tools, to capture vast markets in their respective sectors. While the innovation such platforms have brought in is admirable, it brings with it many important implications for labour law, workers’ data rights, data governance and corporate governance.
Brought to you by IT for Change and supported by Friedrich Ebert Stiftung (FES) and Fair Green Global (FGG), this podcast series explores the very bold and very quick changes taking place in the labour economy today, driven by rapid digitalisation and platformisation of the workplace.
Over the course of the series, we listen to experts viz. labour economy researchers, trade unionists, platform workers, and platform founders, to understand the origins of platform based work, how “gig work” intersects with it, what this means for the employment question right now as well as in the coming years, the power that data holds in this work model and who holds power over it, what issues of labour rights and data rights of workers emerge, and also what alternative models of platform based work are coming up in different parts of the world, to counter some of the criticisms of the current platform model.
Join us as we break down this Podcast Predicament, and attempt to make sense of this datafied future of work.

Out of the Shadows is a podcast about America's tangled history of immigration hosted by award-winning New York Times writer Erick Galindo and entrepreneur and best-selling author Patty Rodriguez.
Season 2: Dreamers
Last season, we tackled Ronald Regan’s 1986 amnesty act, Season 2 will trace the origins of DACA or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, a contentious executive order to protect undocumented young people from being deported. Issued by former President Barack Obama in 2012, DACA was meant to be a temporary stop gap on a broken immigration system. Welcome to Season 2 of Out of the Shadows - Dreamers.
Season 1: Children of 86
Immigrants and their children have long lived in the shadows of America, their destinies aren't just shaped by where they come from but by their particular place in history.
In 1986, the lives of millions of immigrants and their children were changed by one lucky stroke of a pen by an unlikely ally, President Ronald Reagan. This podcast will examine the ripple effects the bill had on first-generation kids of immigrants who are navigating intergenerational mobility and transforming the cultural landscape.
This is an untold story of luck, timing, triumph, opportunity, survival, and of course, hope. -
