  • Annual Exams

    Thank you so much for this podcast. I’m thinking women of child bearing age, living in states that ban abortions, should call their legislators to schedule their annual OBGYN exam, since the politicians seem to know more about women’s reproductive health than actual doctors.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Medical Marijuana Card For A Fetus?! With Karen Thompson & Abby Govindan
Q: Are we right to assume that the reason they could sort other laws on the books is because openly the public actually doesn't have an appetite for jailing pregnant people?
Most people do not support jailing pregnant women unless they perceive the behavior of those women as wrong, which can shift opinion depending on circumstances like drug use during pregnancy.
Medical Marijuana Card For A Fetus?! With Karen Thompson & Abby Govindan
Q: Can you put it in a historical context and just talk about how pervasive this is?
Pregnancy criminalization has been documented since 1973 with increasing cases and evolving legal implications, indicating a concerning trend that has intensified post-Roe.
Fund Abortion, Not ICE With Leigh Finke
Q: What does the anti-trans bill passed in Congress entail?
It criminalizes the provision of gender-affirming care for minors and imposes severe consequences for parents and doctors.
Fund Abortion, Not ICE With Leigh Finke
