194. GO BIG #1: A Big Idea for Gender Equality

Hello! For the next few episodes we’re going big with some of the ideas from Ed’s new book. This week: could better parental leave for dads help promote gender equality? Icelandic Prime Minister and friend of the pod Katrín Jakobsdóttir explains Iceland’s world-leading approach. Then Molly Mayer from the Fawcett Society and Jeremy Davies from the Fatherhood Institute talk us through where we’re going wrong — and what to do about it.

Plus former senior advisor to President Obama Ben Rhodes on working in the White House, defending democracy and the power of podcasting.
