The Pro-Life Guy's Podcast

While many of us welcome the surprise of meeting someone who is already pro-life while doing activism, rarely do we know what to do once they tell us they are pro-life; so much so that we often just let these men and women walk away without even a follow up question! In today's episode, Cam talks through a simple approach to how to engage pro-lifers through the simple steps of: Affirmation Confirm...

Pro-lifer advocates are often challenged with the question, "What about when the mother's life is in danger?", and regardless of whether this comes from a well-meaning pro-lifer struggling to come to terms with this crisis, or an abortion advocate using these scenarios as something of a Trojan horse, it is vital that pro-lifers respond with clarity and compassion. In today's episode, host Cam talk...

This week on Humans of the Pro-Life Movement, host Cam had the opportunity to sit down (in person!) with Adelaide Holmes, Director of Programs at Protect Life Michigan, to talk about her entry into the pro-life movement, her current role, and exciting opportunities she sees in the pro-life movement. Adelaide is an absolute rockstar, and it was so cool to spend a full week getting to know her and c...

I'm super excited to announce that I'm launching a Narnia Book Club, and I want to invite you to be a part of it! Whether you've read one of the books, all of the books, or none of the books, I'd love to have you as a part of this journey through C.S Lewis's fantastical world of Narnia. We'll read one book each month and talk about what we liked, what we may not have liked, and if there's any life...

Pro-life ambassadors often ask me whether they should start their conversations by addressing the hard circumstances and other justifications surrounding pregnancy, or whether they should dive straight into talking about the humanity of pre-born children, and I really (really, really, really) think you should start by addressing the circumstances and justifications underlying their support of abor...

Some times when you are talking to an abortion advocate it becomes clear that they will not becoming fully pro-life (and maybe not even more pro-life) before the end of your conversation with them. Maybe they need to reflect upon the question of whether we can solve problems by killing humans, maybe they need to research when human life begins, maybe they need to consider whether they are comforta...

Is abortion appropriate if the childs parents wouldn't be good parents? This is a question pro-lifers are often asked, either by those who doubt their own ability to provide a high quality of life for a child, those who are unwilling to provide a high quality of life, or by those who are considering people struggling with addiction, homelessness, or other life circumstances which may compromise th...

Many pro-lifers have been told that pre-born children are simply parasites, leeching nutrients and energy from their mothers. While it can be tempting to try and explain how the relationship between mother and child is not simply one-sided, in today's episode, Cam explains how to address the underlying concerns which may be motivating abortion advocates, or simply those experiencing challenging pr...

In today's episode, host Cam is joined by Jessi Corson, Strategic Initiatives Manager for Protect Life Michigan, to talk about her journey into the pro-life movement and how her role has shifted through the years as her family has grown. #prolife #prolifepodcast #prowomanprolife For more PLG Podcast content, go to www.prolifeguys.com For more about Protect Life Michigan, their awesome initiatives,...

Building on the recent episode where Cam spoke to Trevor Polo from Protect Life Michigan, in today's episode host Cam boils things down to a very simple approach for how to explain the use abortion victim imagery and photography to both abortion advocates and pro-lifers (spoiler alert, it's different depending on who you're talking to!). #prolife #howto #antiabortion Don't forget to like and subsc...

While many pro-lifers (and even many abortion advocates) have come to accept and embrace the public display of abortion victim images, there are still at least some who question the strategy, asking questions about the impact abortion victim images have on one's worldview, on their likelihoood of supporting various forms of legislation, and most often the impact showing these images have on people...

This week on Humans of the Pro-Life Movement, and in honour of International Women's Day, host Cam Côté sits down with Meg Woodard, Kensington Coordinator for the Alberta Life Issues Educational Society (ALIES), to talk about her journey from pro-life teenager to working for a pro-life organization with their ministry base two doors down from the Calgary abortion facility in Kensington. Meg is an...

How do you end a conversation about abortion in a polite way that keeps the door open for further thought and reflection? That's the topic of today's PLG Podcast episode! We've done episodes in how to start conversations about abortion, and usually most episodes feature strategies for keeping conversations going, but what if you need to end a conversation, either because you need to get back to wo...

A recent study published in Scientific American suggests that since the overturning of Roe vs. Wade in 2022 via the Dobbs decision, approximately 59,000 women have become pregnant through sexual assault in states where abortion is illegal regardless of the circumstances of the child's conception. In light of this study, many pro-lifers are conflicted in their response, suggesting that these number...

Have you ever been well into a really good conversation with someone who supports abortion, only to have all the rapport and momentum you've built thwarted by a well-meaning, but poorly equipped pro-lifer who interupts you and says something less than ideal? In today's episode, Cam talks about how to handle situations in which pro-lifers who haven't received CCBR's training jump in to "help" you t...

Cam is flipping the episodes this week and kicking things off with a reaction episode to Ben Shapiro and Tom MacDonald's Billboard #1 rap song, "Facts". This song is a hilarious commentary on modern music, but Cam dives a little bit deeper into why pro-lifers and conservatives can laugh along to what may be a very cathartic song, but one that maybe shouldn't become our mantra or anthem. Check out...

In today's bonus episode, host Cam sits down with Larry Worthen, Executive Director of the Christian Medical and Dental Association of Canada, to talk about the ethical challenges many medical practitioners are faced with in contemporary society, the support CMDA is able to offer, and how you can support pro-life medical professionals. To learn more about the Christian Medical and Dental Associati...

Many of the justifications for abortions start with pro-life ambassadors challenging abortion advocates to consider the lives of pre-born children, yet when abortion advocates attempt to defend abortion seemingly out of compassion for pre-born children when parents are given a difficult pre-natal diagnosis, pro-lifers can feel as though the tables have been turned, and that they are now the ones n...

In this "Human's of the Pro-Life Movement" episode, host Cam talk with London Against Abortion leader and disability rights advocate Maria McCann, talking about her entry into the pro-life movement, memorable experiences she's had, and the direction of Canada's pro-life movement.

Conversations about sensitive issues such as abortion almost always bring with them the dilemna of how direct can you be without either getting into a shouting match or else simply ending the conversation. Thanks to this great question on one of the latest YouTube episodes, today Cam explores when and how you can be more direct and challenging in your conversations while mitigating the risk of blo...

Since 2019, Elyssa Currey has been one of CCBR's most active volunteers, participating in activism multiple times each week throughout southwest Ontario. In today's episode, host Cam Côté sits down with Elyssa to talk about her journey into CCBR's outreach team, some of her favourite experiences, and her take on the role community has played in facilitating her involvement. For more PLG content, g...

For many pro-life ambassadors, we hear circumstances brought up in defense of abortion and immediately think of our own experiences, or those of people we know, and we want to share them to help those we are speaking with understand that even faced with daunting and seemingly impossible situations, there is hope. In today's episode, Cam shares how personal stories can be shared in our conversation...

With much of CCBR's outreach happening at post-secondary institutes, we are often confronted with the question, "Should a mother who is on the cusp of getting her degree and launching into a career be required to throw it all away because she found out she's pregnant?". In today's episode, host Cam walks through not only the background behind this important and incredibly relevant question, but al...

For many pro-lifers, winning arguments about abortion seems nearly impossible, without even starting to consider if and how a person could be won to the pro-life world view through the process, yet it doesn't need to be this way. In today's episode, host Cam kicks of this year of pro-life conversation skills with a deep dive into how to be an effective pro-life ambassodor. Using the lens provided...

After focusing on personal development goals in 2022 and personal activism goals in 2023, for 2024 host Cam invites you to consider setting team growth and development goals for pro-life outreach in your sphere of influence in 2024! While many may already have established their New Year's resolutions (and some may already have given up on them...), in 2024 the PLG podcast would love to help you gr...
