More Perfect is a #podcast about how the Supreme Court got so supreme.
The Supreme Court was designed to be above the fray of politics. But at a time when politics seems to seep into every pore of American life, are the nine justices living up to that promise? More Perfect is a guide to the current moment on the Court. We bring the highest court of the land down to earth, telling the human dramas at the Court that shape so many aspects of American life — from our religious freedom to our artistic expression, from our reproductive choices to our voice in democracy.

In the years since More Perfect debuted as @Radiolabpod's first-ever spinoff in 2017, Americans’ awareness of the judicial branch has grown, spurred by the politicization of the Court, increased scrutiny and the over-turning of long-standing rulings, most notably Roe v. Wade.
The new season, hosted by Julia Longoria, a former More Perfect producer, will revisit the human dramas at the Court that are driving change around core aspects of American life today — from our religious freedom to our artistic expression; from our reproductive choices to our voice in democracy.

Dead End: A New Jersey Political Murder Mystery is a seven-part investigative podcast series that delves into the unsolved killing of John and Joyce Sheridan. Its a story of crime and politics in the Garden State. The first episode out now.

Hosted by WNYC Senior Reporter Nancy Solomon, Dead End tells the tale of the high-profile murders that had inexplicable oversights in the original investigation, shines a light on new evidence, and raises troubling questions about power dynamics and corruption at the highest levels in New Jersey politics.
On September 28, 2014, former New Jersey Transportation Commissioner John Sheridan was found dead along with his wife Joyce Sheridan in their home in Skillman, New Jersey. The couple were prominent Republican donors who had relationships with some of the most powerful people in the state, including former Governor Chris Christie. Both suffered multiple stab wounds and their house was set on fire. Although authorities initially declared it a murder-suicide, the Sheridans’ eldest son, Mark, is consumed with questions and doubt, and takes it upon himself to search for the truth – but encounters roadblocks at every turn.
Solomon – who has been covering New Jersey politics for over two decades – takes up Mark’s inquiry. Through interviews with former governors, attorneys general, police detectives and a prosecutor who helped take down the New Jersey mob, Dead End examines how the deaths of such a politically connected couple could be ignored by top law enforcement agencies and left unresolved.
Dead End is the debut production of the WNYC Studios Documentary Unit, a new initiative led by WNYC Studios Vice President Emily Botein, dedicated to producing ambitious, highly-produced non-fiction long-form audio works.
