On the episode, Margo Price talks about her song with Mavis Staples and Adia Victoria, “Fight To Make It.” Proceeds from the song are donated to NOISE FOR NOW to raise awareness and support for reproductive justice. Whyte and Price talk also about Margo’s correspondence with Ronnie Spector, her experience advocating for reproductive healthcare in Tennessee and the tragic loss of one of her children in infancy.
She is joined by Dr. Monica McLemore, nurse scientist and reproductive healthcare advocate, who discusses the often surprising statistics uncovered by reproductive healthcare research. She was an expert witness in the Supreme Court’s Dobbs case and brings an unparalleled level of expertise to the conversation on abortion.

Sing For Science is a science and music podcast produced with Talkhouse where musicians talk to scientists about science as it connects to their most famous songs. Created and hosted by New York musician Matt Whyte, the podcast’s goal is to increase science literacy for as many people as possible by reaching a variety of different musicians’ fan bases. Listeners come to the show through their love of music and leave with a new piece of knowledge about science and the scientific process. Science literacy and respect for expertise are perhaps more vital now more than ever before. The show’s chief tenet is that a more science and scientific process literate society can only contribute towards greater support for more fair, evidence-based policy in government.
