  • Only women can get pregnant

    This whole podcast is ridiculous. If more time was spent main sure women used birth control, there wouldn’t need to be an almost maniacal effort to abort babies. Combine this with using the term “pregnant people” and you have the reason our society is slipping.

    It’s almost universal that 12-15 weeks should be the cut off. This podcast is lunacy

  • Powerful. Important. Imperative.

    Crossing The Line lands you ‘on the ground’ in the lives of those dedicated to serving women’s reproductive needs. The energy and empathy of the individual voices is bringing me to tears. Bless them all.

    The production is beautifully done. Honestly, I’m not much of a podcast listener, but this series is so compelling, I cannot ‘put it down.’

    Wonderfully made.

    The stories told in Crossing The Line are incredibly moving, inspiring, timely, personal, and heartbreaking all at the same time. This podcast is blowing the door wide open on abortion in our post-Roe America — each lawmaker should be REQUIRED to listen.
