What’s it like to work in the abortion industry? How do nice people get drawn in? Why would anyone ever want to work there? And how in the world can we help workers get out?

Join 40 Days for Life President Shawn Carney as he talks with former abortion insiders, Dr. Haywood Robinson and Sue Thayer.

Dr. Robinson has long been involved in pro-life work, but that hasn’t always been the case. After medical school, Dr. Robinson was lured into the lucrative abortion industry. Hear the amazing story of how Dr. Robinson fell into enemy hands and began providing abortions.

Sue Thayer was a longtime Planned Parenthood manager and bought into the lie that she was “helping women”. That changed over time as Sue began to see the abortion giant in a new light.

Dr. Robinson and Sue agree that the salary in the abortion industry is a strong impetus for starting work there. But they learned that no amount of money is worth the cost.

In this first of two parts, you will hear their incredible stories of redemption and conversion, proving that no one is out of reach of the love of God.

Just 10 months after being announced as the new president of Planned Parenthood (and eight after taking office), Leana Wen has been fired!

It's a stunning development, and Shawn Carney, former Planned Parenthood manager Sue Thayer (who knows a thing or two about being fired from the abortion empire!), and Steve Karlen are here to break down what it means for the future of both Planned Parenthood and the pro-life movement. 

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we look at:

  • Why Planned Parenthood is searching for its third president in the last 18 months
  • The forbidden word that might have gotten Leana Wen fired
  • Who America's leading abortion provider might hire to try to save its sinking ship

At first glance, artificial reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization or surrogacy might seem to be the exact opposite of abortion. Abortion kills children of women or couples who don’t want a baby. IVF provides infertile couples with an opportunity to have a child. That’s a good thing, right?

Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. Artificial reproductive technologies contribute to abortion both directly and indirectly. On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we’ll look at:

  • The ways artificial reproductive technologies foster a culture of abortion
  • How to be sensitive to couples who struggle with the cross of infertility while also opposing immoral reproductive techniques
  • Ethical and moral alternatives for couples struggling with infertility

While the Midwest has become more pro-life than, perhaps, any other region of the United States, lawmakers in Illinois bucked the trend by enacting the most liberal abortion legislation in the country.

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, Steve Karlen and Matt Britton talk with former prosecutor Kaitlin Hargate about shocking developments in the "Land of Lincoln," including:

  • How sneaky Illinois politicians rammed through an abortion bill that had previously failed to gain support
  • Why the new law is even more pro-abortion than New York's legalization of third-trimester abortions
  • Why Illinois legislators making the state an abortion haven will be disparaged by the history books
  • The sobbing father who helplessly pleaded for the life of his unborn baby in front of an Illinois abortion facility--and the rights of fathers to protect their abortion-vulnerable children

As America celebrates its independence this 4th of July, the greatest threat to the country's future isn't an external enemy. It's abortion.

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we look at the top five reasons support for abortion is unpatriotic:

  1. Abortion is an attack on the first right America was founded upon: the unalienable Rights of Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
  2. Abortion destroys America’s future by inducing demographic winter.
  3. Abortion betrays the legacy of America’s feminist pioneers who were pro-life.
  4. Americans have a long history of stepping up to protect innocent life both at home and abroad.
  5. Abortion is one more example of the Supreme Court dehumanizing people by denying them equal rights under the law.
