According to 2022 data published by the CDC, birth rates declined for women 24 and under and rose for women ages 25 to 29 and even older from 35 to 49. For many women, having children later in life is made possible through fertility treatment.

That phrase encompasses a lengthy journey of testing and treatments. One that has many steps and many a dollar attached to it.

Kristen V. Brown is a health reporter. She went through the IVF journey in the U.S. and documented it in the new podcast "Misconception."

We discuss her reporting.

Ravi welcomes Todd Rose, co-founder and CEO of Populace, back to the podcast to discuss the current political climate, from the topics most Americans care about that no presidential campaign has addressed to the state of the Israel-Hamas war and its influence on the 2024 election.

Ravi and Todd then react to Columbia President Minouche Shafik’s decision to resign and the need for universities to rethink their approach to identity politics and meritocracy. Finally, they take a closer look at emerging models of K-12 education, the potential of Education Savings Accounts, and what it means to create individualized learning experiences for students.
