The podcast episodes explore the significant role that age plays in fertility, highlighting how fertility declines with increasing age, especially for women.

A key finding from the data presented is that the majority of the fertility decline in the United States is driven by women under the age of 24, with fertility rates remaining relatively stable for women over 30.

The episodes discuss the implications of this trend, including the need for better education around peak fertility windows and the potential policy approaches to address declining birth rates, such as incentivizing family formation and providing societal recognition for those who have large families.
