- Not free
Absolutely love the podcast, but putting the final episode behind a paywall is a no from me. Won’t be listening to this company again.

United Kingdom7 days ago - Very Disappointing
All of these podcasts are free and this one only allows a couple of free episodes and then you have to pay to receive any others. This isn’t even a situation of subscribers get new episodes first and others wait and eventually get. Non subscribers don’t get them at all. Don’t waste your time with any podcasts from The New Yorker. Listen to the same real life stories through other podcasts.

I HATE when they do this!! 😖 (Hence, the one star ⭐️ I gave it; not because of the story, AT ALL!!😒) And THEN, I looked through the other past seasons & I discovered that in THOSE seasons, the SAME thing: you get the first couple of episodes for free & then you have to pay to get access to the later ones!! It really STINKS because I was really liking S7 and this podcast got recommended to me ... more

Devastated to hear about Curtis’ passing. May he rest in peace. So many of us have been cheering him on for years.

I found the story very interesting and it raises many good points about the ethics of surrogacy. However, paywalling the last episode is absurd. I have never been so annoying with such a blatant cash grab.
