This podcast is so good. It’s so informative and interesting all because the storytelling is so good. Like I’m sure this is so cathartic to hear for women that face similar problems but for me it’s all about hearing amazingly crafted stories and that moment every episode where the subject of the episode finally feels seen and believed. That’s such a great moment for the listener to hear!! And it happens every ep! 💕

I started listening after learning that the creator of this show won a prestigious young journalists award. After a half dozen episodes, I’m unfollowing it. The basic storyline is: woman has medical issue, never consults a doctor or “her doctors never asked her the right questions” or “her doctor didn’t listen to her” (fact check?), goes online and possibly pursues a handful of wacky holistic remedies, finally learns that she’s not the only person on earth with this issue, sees a specialist, gets proper care. I can’t listen to another episode without screaming.

It’s simple. Condoms, morning after pill or closing your thighs will keep you from getting pregnant. So barbaric to go straight to killing the baby with really no thought at all about it. Like your getting your tonsils out. Disgusting and I’m glad states now have the right to choose. Women who want to kill babies can just move to a state that have drive thru abortions every time they get pregnant.

High quality and informative; impactful. Hard to listen to just one. An example of best in class, thank you.
