Summary

Since Roe v. Wade was overturned nearly a year ago, conservative-led states, including Texas, have passed a slew of bans on abortion and gender affirming health care. Now, many med students and doctors are choosing to work elsewhere. We’ll get into it. And, India has become a top customer for Russian oil. We’ll explain what that means for the global oil supply and regional geopolitics. Plus, a device that makes water out of thin air, and the head of Turkey’s central bank makes the hosts smile.

Here’s everything we talked about today:

- “Bans on abortion and gender-affirming care are driving doctors from Texas” from 19th News

- “How India Profits From Its Neutrality in the Russia-Ukraine War” from The New York Times

- “Texas man’s invention provides clean water out of air” from Spectrum News

- “Turkish Central Bank Jacks Up Interest Rates in Reversal for Erdogan” from The Wall Street Journal

- “Turkey hikes interest rates as Erdogan stages economic U-turn” from BBC News

Join us tomorrow for Economics on Tap. The YouTube livestream starts at 3:30 p.m. Pacific time, 6:30 p.m. Eastern. We’ll have news, drinks, a game and more.
