The Non-Prophets, Episode 21.20 airing Sunday, May 11th 2022 featuring Cynthia McDonald, Dr. Abby Hafer, MD Aware and Student Doctor Ben.

This week’s episode covers…

Well it is finally here. The Roe versus Wade deep dive we never wanted to do. Yet we do have one of the best panels for this discussion. Our conductor this week Cynthia McDonald is a social worker deep in the trenches of Chicago. Student Doctor Ben is an aspiring and talented MD. MD Awere a fully practicing MD from up north. Then you have Dr. Abby Hafer a PhD teaching prospective doctors all about anatomy and physiology! We couldn’t get a better panel if we tried!

Since this is a deep dive into nasty waters we only have three segments for you. First we look into History’s Pivot to attack Roe v Wade. From the big hair of the 80s to today we look into how attitudes changed, but the attack kept getting worse.

Then we talk about the effects of what will happen when Roe v Wade is rolled back. Does the US turn into a conservative utopia, or are even more people going to die? Only history can tell for sure.

Lastly, we touch on the SCOTUS leak. How much of a deal it is and isn’t.

This is likely going to be with us for a while and we will keep informing you as to what is going on.
