Hello fellow law nerds.

Welcome to another episode of Boom Lawyered,

a rewire.

News podcast hosted by the legal journalism team

that is literally obsessed with Outlander

and 18th century Scottish porn. And I'm telling you people,

if you haven't watched the show, I demand you immediately watch it. She really does. I'm Imani

Gandy. And I'm Jess P.Clo. Rewire. News is dedicated to bringing you the best reproductive

rights and social justice news, commentary, and analysis on the web.

And the team legal podcast is part of that mission. So a big thanks to our subscribers and a welcome

to our new listeners. You know, Jess, what I was just thinking the other day. Being an abortion

provider is such an easy and safe job. Um, Amani, I'm sorry, what? Well, you know, here you have these medical professionals

that help pregnant people often in times of dire crisis and need, and they are resoundingly thanked

for it. The media thanks them, the general public thanks them, plump grandmas thank them. Everyone

celebrates abortion providers.

Every time they go to work, they are just greeted by people who have surrounded their clinic in order to lay praise at their feet.

Amani, um, did you hit your head?

What are you talking about?

I'm a little worried about you because you're saying some pretty strange things right now.

I mean, why else would people gather at abortion clinics to chant and hold signs, if not to tell the world,

we support pregnant people and their right to reproductive autonomy and we thank the doctors that make it possible?

Ammani, no, that's not what they do.
