A couple suggestions... First, another Serial podcast, The Trojan Horse Affair, an investigation into a mysterious letter appearing in 2014 alleging an Islamic plot to subvert British schools. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-trojan-horse-affair/id1606918193 https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/podcasts/trojan-horse-affair.html Second, two philosophers and a guest discuss controversial propositions in Brain in a Vat, which from the first few listens has been a mixed bag (Imagine there is no gender? đź‘Ť Is Islam more rational than Atheism? đź‘Ž), but I bet there are treasures among the episodes. Assume I'm late to the party here, but came across in an article of a professor, Stephen Kershnar, suing to get his position back having lost due to comments made during the Sexual Taboos episode. https://podcasts.apple.com/en/podcast/brain-in-a-vat/id1509951964 https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/braininavat https://www.youtube.com/@BraininaVat/videos

But take two brothers and a sister struggling in the shadow of a domineering parent and follow the steps of the family business succession, but move it to a Chicago Italian beef sandwich restaurant - perfection.
