This week's episode is a solemn look at the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

This week, Sarah and Mikayla discuss several different cases of women experiencing coercion to have an abortion and how abortion pill access online has made it easy to drug women against their wills. 18 states have "shield laws" in place that protect doctors prescribing pills illegally from being prosecuted in these cases.

This week, Sarah and Mikayla discuss the report that ALL of Planned Parenthood's Pennsylvania locations and affiliates list "prenatal services" on their website, but do not offer standard prenatal care. Sarah took it upon herself to call a Planned Parenthood in Illinois to ask some questions; Pennsylvania law prohibits us sharing the full recording of this phone call, but you can learn about what they told us and how it's intentionally misleading to women seeking actual prenatal care.

This week, Sarah and Mikayla talk about the troubling news that recently broke in Pennsylvania -- a registered Tier 1 sex offender was able to circumvent laws that prohibit him from adopting/fostering children, and gained custody of an infant through a loophole: surrogacy. Listen as they discuss homosexual couples, surrogacy, and the devastation it causes to society.  Donate to Promise of Life Network: https://promiseoflifenetwork.org/donate/

CONTENT WARNING: This episode was personally disturbing for us to film, but it is necessary to discuss in light of it's growing popularity. We strongly recommend not reviewing materials from the Satanic Temple yourself unless you feel it necessary to do so and have a strong spiritual support system in place. For these reasons, we will not be including any links to their website. We took care not to display any of the symbolism they use in the podcast episode. This week, Sarah and Mikayla discuss the Satanic Temple, an organization that made abortion a "ritual" so that they can claim it is protected under the First Amendment.
