Some politicians advocate cutting off access to these treatments for people under 18 -- and a few advocate cutting it off for everyone -- but what do Americans think? And, how much of what we hear is factual versus scare tactics? We talk with Dr. Jack Drescher of Columbia University.

Finally, we look at two questions from the 2000s about reality TV. And in a rare moment, all four co-hosts agree on our answer!
