COMEDY
In Evangelical homes across the United States, sex outside of marriage is a sin against God. So, when Abbi becomes pregnant at 16, her devout parents hide her away at the Liberty Godparent Home, a little-known facility for pregnant teens on the campus of Liberty University. The Home says it helps girls decide what comes next – whether that’s parenting their babies or placing them for adoption. But inside the facility, the girls hear a different message: God wants their babies to go to more “deserving” Christian couples. Some girls will find the strength to fight back. Others will have no choice but to give in. And some, like Abbi, will turn their grief into resistance – and take a stand against the system before more mothers lose their children to adoptions they never wanted. From Wondery, host and reporter T. J. Raphael tells a startling true story of young love, coercion, and defiance – and the dangerous resurgence of maternity homes in post-Roe America.

Diddy trials

May 14

KJ_VA_83

Love the show in general but the Diddy trials are hard to listen to when the reporter says “um” every few words. I’ve had to cut it off! And the discrepancy in the volume of the shows can be really difficult to navigate.

Thank you for shedding light on this tragedy that has happened. Hopefully something will change to stop these senseless deaths. As the brother of the defendant and uncle of the victim I cannot advocate enough that Ruth would be alive and safe to this day had the laws allowed cps to Intervene.
