Recently, presidential candidate and U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders told a CNN town hall event that as president, he'd use abortion to combat "overpopulation" and climate change. 

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we talk with demographer and population expert Dr. Layton Field. We discuss:

• Is the world overpopulated?
• How many people can the earth hold?
• If population control advocates take political power, are we likely to see coercive measures to reduce the number of people on the planet?

Tune in to find the answers to these questions--and more!

The abortion industry talks a lot about "safe, legal abortion." 

But just how safe is abortion? 

We know it's deadly for the baby. But the moms are being wounded on a routine basis as well. 

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, 40 Days for Life Director of Medical Affairs and Education and former abortion provider Dr. Haywood Robinson and Outreach Director and former Planned Parenthood manager Sue Thayer join Steve Karlen to discuss:

• the tragic death of an Ohio woman who died following an abortion at a Northern Ohio facility
• how Planned Parenthood's use of untrained personnel to perform medical procedures endanges the health and lives of its clients
• why Planned Parenthood doesn't want an ambulance called--even in the event of a major medical emergency
• how the abortion industry fudges the numbers to avoid accountability for its botched abortions
• and much more!

When it comes to the crisis of abortion, the word "culture" is thrown around a lot.

The media calls abortion a "culture war" issue. As pro-lifers, we talk about transforming a "culture of death" to a "culture of life."

But what is culture? And how does culture in the form of literature, music, and other traditions that span the generations impact the spiritual fight to end abortion? 

Magdalene College Professor and best-selling writer Anthony Esolen joins this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast. 

We discuss:

• the role of imagination and how forming it with good books and beautiful music and help end abortion
• how to reclaim culture that's been lost over the last few generations
• what parents can do to ensure their children remain both Christian and pro-life into their teenage years, college, and beyond
• what book pro-lifers need to read...and a movie they should watch

The abortion industry was rocked by news that a jury found Planned Parenthood guilty of wrongfully firing a Phoenix-area whistle blower who reported her employer for:

• repeatedly botching abortions
• document falsification
• failing to report the sexual abuse of minors
• and more!

Former Planned Parenthood Employee of the Year Mayra Rodriguez was awarded a $3 million judgment.

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, Shawn Carney, Matt Britton, and Sue Thayer discuss:

• the unbelievable negligence of a Planned Parenthood abortion provider who left baby body parts inside his patients
• how Planned Parenthood tries to silence former employees
• whether the Arizona verdict will encourage other abortion workers to dish dirt on Planned Parenthood
• where Planned Parenthood will come up with $3 million after walking away from tens of millions of Title X tax dollars
