  • Can Marriage Fix America?
    Why is everyone—on the left and the right—suddenly touting the benefits of a married two-parent family?

We consider the public meltdown over lower marriage rates and the renewed interest in ending no-fault divorce.  Guest: Rebecca Traister, author of All the Single Ladies: Unmarried Women and the Rise of an Independent Nation and writer-at-large for New York magazine.  If you enjoy this show, please consider signing up for Slate Plus.
