MacVoices #25118: TV+ Talk - TV+ Talk Is Back!

Apple TV+ earns two Peabody nominations for powerful documentaries "Bread and Roses" and "The Last of the Sea Women," but hosts Chuck Joiner and Charlotte Henry express frustration over Apple's poor promotion of its content. They praise Apple's overall documentary quality yet note how many shows go under the radar. The conversation also covers the wrap of "Severance" season two, the final season of "Mythic Quest," and news of a controversial season four of "Ted Lasso."
