Episode 1.5: Let's Be Real – No Uterus, No Opinion


We introduce our new feature, "Let's Be Real," a sporadic spin-off where we discuss the impact of current events. This week, we address the overturning of Roe v Wade in the US Supreme Court and the consequences this has on people seeking abortions.
