Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard · Claudia Rowe (on the foster care system) · 4 Feb 2026 podcast

So by the end of this sentencing proceeding, I realize this isn't really a crime story.

This is a foster care story because her reality of running from her foster care placement and being on the street and how it was that she was in this guy's car and the whole thing, her history suddenly is in front of me and it meshes with all the stuff I've

covered as a reporter years prior, back at the old Seattle PI.

I had written stories about what happens to older youth in foster care.

Correct.

And, you know, I wrote a couple of stories.

I didn't get that deep, but it was in my head.

Some of the stats about the outcomes for kids when they age out had always shocked me.

And even more shocking was that it seemed like nobody thought this was a thing.

Nobody made a big deal.

I love it.

Yeah, there were some reports and yeah, some reporters wrote some stories, but it wasn't some like national issue.

20 to 25% of state prison inmates are believed to be alumni.

In my book, I'm a little more conservative.

That's probably true.

But what we say or what I can document is that roughly 25 to 30% of...

youth and young adult homeless.

So homeless people who are, say, in their mid-20s are alumni, which is weird.

So they are very likely to be former foster youth.

Absolutely.
