Hey guys and gals. Y here had the most unfortunate time with laryngitis and burst pipes. We know we promised two new episodes, but unfortunately, she did not recover to the full extent yet, so be patient. However, as a women enterprise, following the SCOTUS decision on Roe vs. Wade, we just couldn't stay silent. In this bonus episode, that doesn't talk about one murder or crime in particular, we discussed illegal abortions in USSR, as well as current abortion laws in post-soviet countries.
Please tune in and Happy Holidays to our American Comrades!
