American Wombs for Sale: The Rise of Chinese Birth Tourism Is American citizenship quietly becoming a commodity—and who's cashing in? From luxury maternity homes to international surrogacy contracts, Dr. Phil explores the growing industries helping foreign nationals—especially from China—secure U.S. citizenship for their children. Criminal defense attorney John McNicholas shares the details of a high-profile federal case involving a birth tourism ring that made millions. Parham Zar, director of a leading surrogacy agency, explains why families are choosing American surrogates and what separates surrogacy from birth tourism. But policy analyst for the Heritage Foundation, Emma Waters warns the trend could carry hidden national security risks. With President Donald Trump renewing calls to end birthright citizenship through executive order, Dr. Phil unpacks the legal loopholes, ethical dilemmas, and rising debate over what it really means to be born an American.

Remote working made sense until it didn't. We had little choice during the beginning of the pandemic. But those days are long gone. While some jobs justify working from home, most of us would be better off getting dressed, leaving the house, and working in a real office, where we have human interaction and a clear differentiation between work and home.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

How do these tragedies unfold, and what does it say about the systems meant to protect our youth?

Would you risk it all to expose the truth? Discover the extraordinary story of John Kiriakou. Dr. Phil welcomes John Kiriakou, a former CIA counterterrorism officer and best-selling author, who sacrificed his freedom to expose one of the government's darkest secrets. Kiriakou played a pivotal role in counterterrorism after 9/11 but made headlines when he revealed the CIA's use of waterboarding, denouncing it as torture. This brave act led to his indictment under the Espionage Act—a law meant to punish spies—and landed him in prison for 23 months. In this thought-provoking episode, John shares his story, from his work in intelligence to his fight for transparency and ethical treatment of whistleblowers. As the recipient of the Joe A. Callaway Award for Civic Courage, Kiriakou reflects on the moral dilemmas of his career and the ongoing battle to champion human rights.

We'll tackle one of the most heated debates in sports —should transgender athletes be allowed to compete in women's sports? The conflict over whether transgender athletes should be allowed to compete in women's sports has sparked controversy in locker rooms, courtrooms, and even the White House. President Trump's latest executive order is shaking up the rules, the battle lines are drawn even deeper. We'll talk to a former college star athlete whose team lost when faced with a trans opponent, a transgender activist who believes it's a transperson's right to compete in sports that align with their new identity and a transwoman, against trans athletes participating in women's sports who says she's proof trans women have an advantage over biological women. This is more than just policy—it's an urgent conversation about real people, real struggles, and the fight for understanding, respect, and fairness.
