S1E3: How can I separate fact from fiction here?
This week on The Pillar In-Depth, I talk with a longtime journalist and fact-checker about how we can separate fact from fiction when it comes to abortion-related content we see online. Then, something I’ve seen a lot of in the wake of Dobbs are stories of doctors turning away women seeking care for miscarriages or ectopic pregnancies. I talk with a friend who experienced a miscarriage recently about her own experience, and the questions she has after the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

S1E1: I don’t know how to talk about this . . .
Conversations about abortion have become so angry, especially with the recent overturning of Roe v. Wade. In this episode, I ask if it’s even possible to have a good conversation about abortion anymore? And what does a good conversation about abortion even look like?
