    How to Give Birth in America, Pt. 2

    Hey fellas, is it gay to offer women adequate pain relief during surgery? Approximately seven years after Caro launched an intended mini-series on childbirth in America, we’re back with the second installment. Better late than never, etc. In case you need a refresher, here’s that original episode, which talked about fun things like homebirth in the 1800s, the downstream medical effects of puritanism as a guiding cultural force in America, and the formation of the hospital as a profit-seeking industry. It also raised what may well become the hottest philosophical question this podcast has ever sought to answer: Who is more squeamish with the particulars of childbirth, Katie or seemingly every white male doctor in the 19th and 20th century? Today’s conversation covers, but is not limited to: The progress of institutionalization of childbirth in America in the 1900s The historical connection between gynecology and chattel slavery The two more recent forced c-section cases of Brianna Bennett and Cherise Doyley An explainer on the c-section A deep dive into why c-section rates are so extraordinarily high in 2026 …and much, much more! Come on in, folks, the water is legally anesthetized and you still have an 8% chance of feeling everything!

    Gen Z Women's New "Anti-Woke Voice"

    NEW SWAG ALERT 🚨 The Small Government line is back & better than ever. Get yours here. Katie’s back on her metaphoric “What’s Charlie Kirk up to these days?” editorial grind—checking in with one of the hottest new Gen Z Lady Voices taking the middle-aged men of the center-right by storm. In this episode, we check in with a writer we haven’t discussed since one of our very first episodes: Freya India, also known as three Jonathan Haidts in a very hot 26-year-old trenchcoat, just published her first book, Girls®—an excoriation of the modern world and its effects on The Youth (or, more specifically, the pathologies of liberal teen girls, as she often puts it). To hear India tell it, young girls have been Filtered, Diagnosed, Documented, Disconnected, Detached, and ‘Empowered,’ all thanks to the increasingly rapacious incentive structure of a pyramid-shaped economic system that necessitates a constantly growing consumer base wait, sorry, no. That’s not it. Actually, we’re not really sure why. You know what? It’s not important. Let’s move on. What Girls® lacks in explanatory mechanisms, it makes up for in solutions: Logging off, finding God, and starting a family. The ideological project underway here should be obvious to anyone whose brain hasn’t been marinated in a dutch oven full of expired bath salts, so why has this book been endorsed by a gaggle of high-profile, putatively left-wing men?

    Who's Afraid of Hasan Piker? [Full Episode]

    Meet the Big Bad Wolf striking fear into the heart of lobbyists everywhere. It only took them two years, but it seems the Democratic party has finally found a unifying message to coalesce around in advance of the midterms: Citizens United must be overturned. Wait, no, hold on—this just in, Hasan Piker, the highly popular Democratic socialist twitch streamer, is a terrorist who must be destroyed at all costs before he singlehandedly takes down the American empire. Today, we’re talking about how this political panic unfolded in the last month, what it says about the state of the Democratic party, and where we go from here.

    The Caro Episode

    Order Yesteryear if you like nice things, have good taste, or don’t want Katie to show up in the middle of the night at your house with a strongly worded remonstration. What does it feel like to spend 10 years of your life pursuing an uncertain dream when the chances of breakthrough success are one in a million? What does it feel like to—finally, at long last—be “the one”? Caro Claire Burke, one-half of your favorite podcast, is publishing her debut novel this Tuesday, April 7. Yesteryear is mouthy, thrilling, important, ambitious, and, as one of my favorite reviews said, “moves like a freight train.” Sound like anyone else you know? Today, I finally get the opportunity to talk to caro claire burke about: * whether publishing your debut novel is a dream come true or a nightmare * who she was before she wrote Yesteryear * her seemingly endless years writing clickbait for a paycheck in the content coal mines of various aggregators * how she felt when we met 🥰 * how I felt when we met 👹 * the psychological experience of feeling like everyone’s looking at you (Professionally™️) and knowing the precise dates and times when your life’s work will be dissected for sport in public lol * to what extent it’s fair to infer someone’s politics from their fiction (a la this piece) * her Official Stance on separating the art from the artist (compelling tbh) * a spoiler-frenzied discussion of the Next Great American Novel * and a very personal, very special update for Caro This is a public episode.
