Today we are doing an episode that is long overdue. We are interviewing Zoë Noble and James Glazebrook – hosts of the popular We Are Childfree podcast. The podcast started in January 2021 and focuses on childfree women and, more recently, on celebrating the lives and experiences of older childfree people. We Are Childfree has been featured in The New York Times, BBC, The Guardian, Vogue and much more. We will hear more about their stories, life on the road traveling Europe in a camper van, and much more.

This episode is going to be A DOOOOOOOOZY. We’re talking about a story that centers in Texas (of course) featuring a baby, who was born with a severe heart defect, that drew the attention of anti-abortion activists as well as the Texas attorney general after the intended parents wanted the surrogate mother to have an abortion. I think there is a good likelihood that this case will rise to the Supreme Court and influence future abortion precedent — so, as your local abortion advocates, we thought it was valuable to fill you in.

1 JUL 2026 · Today we are doing another dedicated Regretful Parents episode. This is our fourth full episode we’ve done on regretful parents and, if you didn’t notice by now, we also have a recurring series we try to do weekly available wherever you find podcasts and a whole lot more on our YouTube channel.
In today’s episode, I have compiled a ton of recent posts on Facebook’s I Regret Having Children, which as of recording has 105k members. Trigger warning that there is some talk of parricide (or the murder of one’s own family member) in today’s episode. Either way, you are in for a ride.
