  • S1E5: How can I support women today?
    Aug 12 2022
    Maternity homes might be one of the best kept secrets of the pro-life movement in the United States. But with the recent overturning of Roe v. Wade, it’s time more people knew about them.

    This week on The Pillar In-Depth, Kate Olivera profiles a maternity home in Chicago and two women who have benefited from its service.

  • S1E3: How can I separate fact from fiction here?
    Jul 26 2022
    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 . . .
    Jul 11 2022
    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?
