In addition to competing at the upcoming Academy Awards, Barack and Michelle Obama announced last June that they signed a deal with Spotify to create a series of exclusive podcasts through their production company Higher Ground Audio.
"We're thrilled to have the opportunity to amplify voices that are too often ignored or silenced altogether, and through Spotify, we can share those stories with the world. Our hope is that through compelling, inspirational storytelling, Higher Ground Audio will not only produce engaging podcasts, but help people connect emotionally and open up their minds — and their hearts," the former First Lady said in a statement, without providing details on specific projects.
More recently, Michelle Obama announced that she will launch a documentary video series on Instagram's ITV beginning this month. The six-episode series will follow four first-year students from across the US as they adjust to life in college, with Obama teasing in the trailer that"they'll tell us what that first year of college is really like. The ups, the downs and everything in between."
