More From Them Before Us With Katy Faust

Katy and Josh open the episode with a cultural curveball: SNL’s shockingly honest sketch about a gay couple and a baby sparks a broader conversation, Where did the baby come from, and why are we told not to ask? They unpack the subtle shift in public opinion on same-sex parenting, surrogacy, and the crumbling taboos that once silenced these conversations.

Next, Katy introduces a clip of our interview with Dr. Naomi Whittaker, a board-certified OB-GYN and fertility surgeon, to discuss what real, compassionate women’s healthcare looks like—and why restorative reproductive medicine matters more than ever in an era of artificial wombs and outsourced motherhood. Go check out our IVF | FYI series for the full conversation: https://youtu.be/WXbtIGijoaI?feature=shared

Finally, we take on your questions:
– Is surrogacy ever okay—especially when frozen embryos are involved?
– Should you take relationship advice from #divorcedandthriving reels?
– And what should Christians think about artificial wombs?
