LST FAVES: It's A Real Mother, Part 2: Ideal Worker
Why do stock images of working moms look frazzled, while stock images of working dads just look like... guys at work? Author Brigid Schulte gets to the heart of why discrimination against working moms is so deeply embedded in our culture—and what we can do to change it.
⭐️ This episode originally ran on November 8, 2017 as a part of our critically acclaimed series about working moms, It’s a Real Mother. We hope you enjoy, and we’ll be back next week with a brand new episode.

Katz BACK in the Cradle
Eight years ago, Matt Katz came on the show after nervously revealing to his 5-year-old daughter that the man she thought was his biological father was not, in fact, his biological father. But Matt would later learn that the truth about his biological father was much more complicated than he even realized. As he followed the twists and turns of this story, Matt became a bio dad detective — chasing clues at home and abroad, and concocting intricate, fantastical theories along the way.
*NOTE: Before listening to this episode, we highly recommend listening to the prequel, “Katz in the Cradle,” which you will find in your podcast feed right before this episode.
