We decided to do this episode following Texas legislature enacting their stringent abortion law (SB8) and it is more necessary than ever now, with more than 100 abortion restrictions enacted just this year.
We hear from six incredible C*mpanions from all over the US (and one in Peru) who share unique stories of abortion; either their own, a parent's, or a friend who they helped.

0:00.0 | Hello everybody, welcome back to how come this episode is all about abortion rights. |
0:06.0 | We recorded it back in September right when the new law came into effect in Texas that |
0:11.6 | any pregnancy in which a heartbeat is detected cannot be aborted. |
0:16.2 | Effectively meaning that if you are six weeks pregnant you cannot have an abortion in Texas, |
0:21.3 | which is crazy because abortion rights activists estimate 85 to 90% of people who need abortions |
0:27.8 | in Texas are at least six weeks pregnant. |
0:30.7 | I know I personally, I was five weeks pregnant when I went to the doctor and then they made |
0:36.6 | me wait at an additional two weeks because they were like this clump of cells isn't big |
0:41.3 | enough to be aborted yet. |
0:43.5 | So that's no good because that would make all of those abortions illegal. |
0:48.9 | We recorded with six different companions who have stories, either a story of their own |

1:01.8 | We highly recommend listening to this entire episode. |
1:05.1 | It is long but it is worth it. |
1:07.3 | Trigger warning, there is assault, there is rape, there is obviously just very upsetting |
1:13.8 | content in this. |
1:15.7 | But it's all very important. |
1:17.8 | Also some of the companions that we spoke to might have used language that is a little |
1:23.4 | more gendered, maybe they didn't say cis women, maybe they didn't say people with uterus |
1:27.9 | is. |
1:29.2 | If they didn't, I'm so sorry. |
