On the eleventh episode of Life After Dobbs, Leah’s Libresco Sargent’s New York Times essay about her painful experience with ectopic pregnancy serves as the beginning of a broad conversation with Ryan and Alexandra about the place of career and familial obligation in one’s life, how our culture overlooks and ignores human dependence and need, and what different answers to the abortion question say about the human person.

On the tenth episode of the Life After Dobbs podcast, Ryan and Alexandra host EPPC Fellow Carl R. Trueman to examine the anthropological and philosophical questions underlying the abortion debate. In his book The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self, Carl explains the history of the ideas which led to this rhetorical chasm and shows the connection between long-dead thinkers and contemporary politics. The Christian worldview, characterized by dependence and relationship, is sharply contrasted to that of the modern Left and its preference for autonomy and self-expression.
