What if you could spend your days on an idyllic, luxury compound and get paid for it? Would you choose this life? For the women at Golden Oaks they do just that–working as a paid surrogate for wealthy mothers-to-be. The Farm is a complex look at surrogacy, meritocracy and the multifaceted world of motherhood. Joanne Ramos sat down with the Titas for a lively discussion about The Farm, motherhood, privilege and the American Dream. Joanne was in town for Vancouver Writer's Fest last October.

This year has seen ongoing turmoil at Westminster, the date on which Britain leaves the EU deferred and two new political parties founded and fielding candidates – Change UK and the Brexit Party. It is frequently claimed that we are seeing a realignment in British politics. But is that claim borne out among women voters? And, how do the varied concerns of women fit into a conversation that is so often dominated by men? We look at what light electoral research, opinion polling and focus groups might shed on the way different groups of women voters are currently thinking. As part of a BBC season about mental health, tomorrow we hear from a 40 year old woman who lives with Dissociative Identity Disorder. We're calling her Melanie and she was first diagnosed aged 22. She explains her diagnosis as being like a set of Russian dolls. She, Melanie, is the main doll and inside her are lots of other dolls, her alternative personalities. She feels her DID helped her as a child when she suffered repeated sexual abuse but living with it as an adult is challenging. The Farm, the title of Joanne Ramos's debut novel, refers to a Golden Oaks, a luxury retreat where women get the very best of everything provided they dedicate themselves to producing the perfect baby. For someone else. Joanne Ramos joins Jane to talk about the rights and wrongs of surrogacy, being an immigrant, nannies who rarely get to see their own children and the myths and reality of the American dream.
