Abortion on Television with Guest Steph Herold

The Repro Files Podcast dives headfirst into the raw, rage-filled, and relentlessly human realities of reproductive health care in America. It's everything “Infertility, Injustice, and All the Things Nobody Warned You About."

Co-hosts AnnMarie Luft and Elizabeth Lee bring decades of frontline nursing experience, policy insight, and unfiltered storytelling to the mic. The show is unapologetically intersectional, blending clinical expertise with social justice advocacy to tackle the issues most platforms won’t touch: IVF denial, abortion bans, LGBTQ+ family building, Medicaid collapse, immigration injustice, and the personal toll of living in a system designed to fail you.

Each weekly episode of The Repro Files features a mix of personal narratives, expert interviews, policy breakdowns, and what the hosts call their “rage share of the week”—a segment spotlighting real-world consequences of legislative overreach and systemic neglect.

Listeners can expect fearless coverage of the cost of trying to have (or not have!) a baby in America, IVF access and the rising threat of fetal personhood laws, LGBTQ+ barriers to reproductive care, immigration policy and reproductive coercion, and the mental load of being denied care—and how to fight back.


“We created this podcast for anyone who’s ever asked, ‘Why didn’t anyone warn me about this?’” — AnnMarie Luft, Co-Host

“Our patients are living proof that the healthcare system isn’t just broken—it’s weaponized. We’re done with silence. This podcast is our answer to all the gaslighting, all the gatekeeping, and all the garbage policy that people are too afraid to call out.” --Elizabeth Lee, Co-Host
