<p>Leon Neyfakh is a journalist and podcaster best known as the co-creator and host of <em>Slow Burn</em>, <em>Fiasco</em>, and <em>Backfired</em>. He has been a reporter for <em>Slate, The Boston Globe</em>, and <em>The New York Observer </em>and is the author of the book <em>The Next Next Level</em>. Listen to his newest podcasts here.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Season 3: OnlyFantasy</strong></p><p>In this provocative investigation into OnlyFans— the adult platform where subscribers around the world spent more than $7 billion in 2024— journalist Leon Neyfakh teams up with comedian and OnlyFans creator Gracie Canaan for a one-of-a-kind exploration into the current state of human connection.</p><p>Throughout, they discover that the site originally built for spicy adult content has quietly and surprisingly become something more complicated— an emotional marketplace where desire, performance, care, fantasy, and vulnerability seemingly blur together.</p><p>As Neyfakh and Canaan navigate timely questions about autonomy, performance, and profit, a question emerges: is connection mediated by a screen still authentic? To find the answer, they meet creators building lucrative businesses, subscribers who believe they’ve found something real, professional “chatters” who are paid to simulate affection, and pioneers who have helped engineer intimacy at scale.</p><p>Captivating and tender, &lt;i&gt;OnlyFantasy&lt;/i&gt; is ultimately about the cost of loneliness, the seductive power of desire, and how the rules of human intimacy are being rewritten online.</p><p>Is what’s happening on OnlyFans real? Or is it only a fantasy?&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Season 2: Final Thoughts: Jerry Springer</strong></p><p>Jerry Springer wasn’t supposed to become the host of <em>The Jerry Springer Show</em>. Before the chairs started flying and the fights became a daytime TV staple, the man then known as Gerald Springer was an idealistic rising star in Democratic politics, with ambitions to one day be elected governor of Ohio.&nbsp;</p><p>From Leon Neyfakh and Prologue Projects<em> —</em> the team behind <em>Slow Burn</em>, <em>Fiasco</em>, <em>Backfired, </em>and <em>Think Twice: Michael Jackson —</em> comes <em>Final Thoughts: Jerry Springer</em>.</p><p>You may think you know Springer, the notorious ringmaster of what <em>TV Guide</em> once called “the worst show in television history.” But long before Springer’s name became synonymous with outrageous guests, taboo confessions, and vicious on-stage brawls, he was the mayor of Cincinnati<em> —</em> a serious and popular politician who many believed was the future of the Democratic Party. So, what happened?</p><p>This series traces Springer’s unlikely transformation<em> —</em> from the son of Jewish refugees who fled Nazi Germany, to a respected public servant, to the face of a show many called a symptom of cultural decline. Through intimate interviews with the people who knew him best<em> —</em> family, political insiders, and the producers who helped shape his show<em> —</em> <em>Final Thoughts</em> will bring you closer than ever to the man behind the spectacle, and maybe even cause you to rethink some of your own life choices.</p><p><em>Final Thoughts</em> isn’t just a story about one man’s improbable career path. It’s about how far someone can go for success and what they’re willing to trade to stay on top. Was Springer pulled into the gutter, or did he just understand it better than anyone else?&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Season 1: Think Twice: Michael Jackson</strong></p><p>More than a decade since Michael Jackson’s death, his legacy remains complicated and unresolved. <em>Think Twice: Michael Jackson</em> is an exploration of the King of Pop’s life and impact — and an investigation into why his global influence continues to endure, despite the disturbing allegations against him. In this ten-part series, journalists Leon Neyfakh and Jay Smooth bring you a new perspective on the Michael Jackson story, based on dozens of original interviews with people who watched it unfold from up close.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p>

<p>Un podcast original de Podium, con Beatriz Serrano y Guillermo Alonso, que gira en torno a los sentimientos que mueven nuestras vidas: el odio, la antipatía y el resentimiento. O, más bien, sobre las cosas y las personas que despiertan estos oscuros sentimientos que nosotros intentamos que permanezcan dormidos pero la vida no lo permite. En Arsénico Caviar creemos que el odio une y define más que el amor, y si el amor puede mover montañas, nosotros queremos dinamitarlas.</p> <p>'Arsénico Caviar' ha sido galardonado como Mejor Podcast conversacional (ex aequo) en los II Premios Ondas Globales del Podcast.</p>
