Episode 12: Ayo Season and Why We Should Talk More About Women's Health

In our first episode of 2024, we discuss the Emmy Awards and why Ayo Edebiri rocks (...style, talent, and her/her dad’s Letterboxd reviews). We talk about recent research that could improve women’s health and longevity and how shamefully little we know, learn, and talk about fertility and menopause as women. We also chat on population decline in China and how and why Sweden, in contrast, has a growing population. We wrap up with a movie force-ranking from Kelly that no one asked for: Mean Girls vs. Oppenheimer vs. Saltburn; and Steph provides some stellar audiobook recos from Brené Brown.
