Special Edition: What's Next in a Post-Roe America Jun 24, 2022

Show notes

**We are releasing this episode one day early due to the breaking news** It's official: The U.S. Supreme Court released its ruling Friday that overturns Roe v. Wade, which had guaranteed a woman's right to an abortion for nearly 50 years. Now, it'll be up to the states to decide whether to ban or restrict abortions. We've been expecting this decision ever since a draft opinion was leaked back in May. But today, we're asking: what happens next?

Attorney Greer Donley tells us she expects "chaos" and "confusion" and is sharing the potential legal consequences of the Supreme Court ruling. She recently co-authored a paper published in the Columbia Law Review about this topic called "The New Abortion Battleground."

We also get the response and reaction from the president of Texas Right to Life, who also has his doctorate in bioethics and health policy, Dr. John Seago.

Special Edition: Pain at the Pump - Why Is Gas So Expensive? Jun 18, 2022

Show notes

Gas prices have been rising for two months straight. Now, on average, a tank of gas costs more than $5 nationwide. To try to bring prices back down, an organization of the world's biggest oil producers, OPEC+, has promised to increase production.

So why are prices still high? Today we'll hear from trusted and well-known expert Patrick De Haan, the head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy. Patrick is breaking down, step by step, how we got here and revealing insights into the oil market that you don't often hear about.
