Hey folks, this is Kevin. This is a special episode of risk because yesterday may second

0:15.6

the Supreme Court. Well, there was a leaked document of their argument for overturning

0:22.2

Roe v Wade and Alito even went on in the argument to point out that from there the court

0:31.6

intends to overturn prior decisions to legalize gay marriage and to legalize gay sex. But

0:43.0

in truth, there are a whole bunch of other rights that come from that idea that Americans

0:51.0

have a right to privacy. And so this moment that we've been warning about for years has

0:58.9

come where this court is going to start stripping us of all kinds of our civil rights. Saudi

1:09.3

Arabia has more abortion rights than there are in Alito's plan. But I should stress the

1:17.5

word plan because unforeseen things could happen and the resistance from we the people could

1:27.7

be a very consequential factor. Now, there's someone on Twitter named Helm Sinky, H-E-L-M-S-I-N-K-I,

2:24.8

Sinky, or find the link to the document in the show notes. So we're going to feature

2:29.7

two stories on today's episode. The first is by Jen Montuth. This was shared on a live

2:38.0

stream during the lockdown of 2020. And we'll also hear a story from Liz Winsdead, a story

2:46.4

she shared with risk once in San Francisco a few years back. Liz is a comedian and the co-creator

2:54.9

of the Daily Show. And she's an activist in her own right. So you should look her up at

3:00.9

Liz Winsdead on Twitter that's L-I-Z-Z-W-I-N-S-T-E-A-D. So without further ado, here is first
