The podcast is getting heated this week! Rowan explains why the world keeps referencing the Ancient Greek play “Lysistrata” in the wake of Judge Alito’s draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade.
She also teaches us about the history of sex strikes, Romania’s Decree 770 outlawing abortion, and how the chainsaw was actually invented for use in childbirth.
