About this listen

In which Phineas explains to Cee how one the recent decisions from the Supreme Court affects her uterus, and what exactly they said because, to quite Brett Kavanaugh's diary I assume, "You can't read if you have a uterus because they go where your eye balls should be."

The episode starts off with Phineas glossing over Judith Jarvis Thomson's violist argument and Philippa Foot's Doctrine of Double Effect essay to say where he's coming from and why the 'women's bodily autonomy' fails before getting into the truly stupid things that Samuel Alito said.
