  • The "Bad Sisters" are back, and they're better than ever.

    The "Bad Sisters" are back, and they're better than ever.
    Nov 22 2024
    The Apple TV series "Bad Sisters" debuted two years ago. There were laughs. There was murder. And that could've been it for the Garvey sisters, because the show wasn't originally intended to have a second season.

    But, as creator and star Sharon Horgan puts it — "You don't just kill a man and move on."

    The Garvey sisters are back for Season 2 – with more banter... wickedness... and secrets. We catch up with creator and star Sharon Horgan to find out what's in store.

  • Some Trump cabinet picks are accused of sexual misconduct. What's it mean for #MeToo?

    Some Trump cabinet picks are accused of sexual misconduct. What's it mean for #MeToo?
    Nov 21 2024
    If you're tracking Donald Trump's cabinet picks, you may have noticed common threads among them: top jobs are going to people fiercely loyal to Trump, people with experience appearing on TV, but no experience directly relevant to the jobs they would be doing.

    There's another thing several share: being accused of sexual misconduct. Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth, HHS Secretary nominee Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, Elon Musk, who Trump has picked to co-run the Department of Government Efficiency — all these men have faced some variation of accusations of sexual misconduct. All have denied it, or claimed no memory.

    Donald Trump's first presidential win helped lay the groundwork for the #MeToo movement. What do his cabinet picks say about the movement today?

  • Witnesses say Israel is using sniper drones in Gaza and they're shooting civilians

    Witnesses say Israel is using sniper drones in Gaza and they're shooting civilians
    Nov 20 2024
    Last week British surgeon Nizam Mamode testified in front of a committee in the U.K. Parliament. Dr. Mamode had recently returned from working at a hospital in Central Gaza.

    He told parliamentary members what he witnessed, including drones that would come down and "pick off civilians, children. And we had description after description. This is not, you know, an occasional thing. This was day after day after day."

    For months, NPR has been collecting eyewitness accounts from Gaza that corroborate Dr. Mamode's testimony, saying the Israeli military has been using sniper drone technology and that they're not just shooting enemies, but also civilians.|
