Michelle Obama‘s next career move will be a video podcast with her brother, she revealed on Monday.
The former first lady, 61, will interview a variety of guests in her podcast, IMO – an acronym for ‘in my opinion – alongside her brother Craig Robinson, the New York Times reported.
The podcast was announced by Higher Ground, the production company founded by the Obamas in 2018. The company has previously released a limited series about Steve Wonder and a celebrity interview show about family recipes.
The first two episodes will be released on Wednesday. The NYT reviewed them and reported they are each about an hour long and show the hosts offering advice from their personal experience while refraining from addressing current affairs.
Guests for the project will include a mix of celebrities such as Tyler Perry, Seth Rogen and Jay Shetty.
Michelle previously hosted a podcast, The Michelle Obama Podcast.
Robinson, who is known to enjoy a close relationship with his sister, is the executive director of the National Association of Basketball Coaches which is headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri.
The announcement comes as divorce rumors continue to swirl around the Obamas, who have been married for 32 years.

Michelle Obama was spotted stepping out with her brother Craig Robinson last month in LA
The rumors intensified after the former president attended a Los Angeles Clippers NBA game without Michelle.
The 63-year-old has faced months of intensifying scrutiny over his marriage. Obama was notably alone at Jimmy Carter’s state funeral and Donald Trump’s inauguration, where Michelle broke tradition by declining to attend.
Michelle was spotted last month enjoying a fun evening with her older brother Craig at Mother Wolf, a popular restaurant in Los Angeles.
Obama attempted to quash the speculation by posting a loved-up selfie of the couple smiling on Instagram for Valentine’s Day.
‘Thirty-two years together and you still take my breath away. Happy Valentine’s Day, Michelle Obama!’ the Democrat wrote in a social media caption.
It was unclear when the image was taken, but Michelle shared the same selfie on her own account.
She wrote: ‘If there’s one person I can always count on, it’s you, Barack Obama. You’re my rock. Always have been. Always will be. Happy Valentine’s Day, honey!’

Obama’s repeated public appearances without wife Michelle have led to divorce rumors
The Obamas have been spending an increasing amount of time in California since 2021 when eldest daughter Malia relocated to LA after graduating from Harvard to pursue a career in screen writing and film production.
Famously, the Golden State was their first stop after leaving the White House in 2016 with the former First Couple treating their family to a vacation in a secluded Palm Springs mansion.
Since then, their love of the famously Liberal state has only grown with younger daughter Sasha transferring to the University of Southern California from the University of Michigan in 2022.
After graduating with a degree in sociology, Sasha has shown interest in following her sister into the entertainment business.
