“Pros: because this is so scripted, the host doesn’t spend much or any time greeting her guests or beating her on the bush, so you do get pretty straightforward information. A con to this: not a very heart warming or entertaining podcast. Other cons: the information on this podcast is very much in line with conventional western OB/GYN practice. No where on this podcast will you be encouraged to consider a midwife (everything is, “talk to your doctor”) a doula, have a non-medicated pregnancy, or have a homebirth. Podcast like this feed into the brainwashing of American women that the myriad of interventions OB/GYN push on women are normal. From the membrane sweep, to the breaking of your water, the Pitocin, the epidural, and finally the C-section. None of these are needed for abnormal healthy pregnancy. I wish more podcast would focus on educating women on this.”
