United Tastes of America
UNITED TASTES OF AMERICA Welcome to iHeart’s UNITED TASTES OF AMERICA new podcast series. This is part of iHeart’s comprehensive celebration of America’s 250th birthday all year long in 2026 . For over 400 years, people from all over the world have crossed the ocean and entered the United States through the New York harbor and other Gateway harbors seeking a new life in America. These people arrived not only with their hopes and dreams, but also with their culinary cuisines, customs, preferences, and talents. These varied culinary traditions have created our own unique American cuisine with a blend of foods from around the Globe. iHeart is proud to bring you this series of the best-of-the-best food dishes across America. For this series and special event, we are visiting each of the 50 states to find one unique dish that best showcases the culinary history of that state. And to find one special restaurant to prepare this dish. We will also showcase three additional restaurants from each state for wonderful culinary road trips. These stories will be shared via both video and audio podcasts each week and a special video vignette distributed on iHeart’s You Tube page. Additionally, each weekly podcast will include a musical playlist of songs from or about that state because like food, music has played such a great role in telling the story of the history of the United States. It’s UNITED TASTES OF AMERICA exclusively from iHeart.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
