Podcast Movement 2019 Day Four:

Yes, it's a special Friday episode! You can thank the fine folks who went to Buymeacoffee.com/evoterra and... bought me a coffee! They asked for a final recap of the show after the last day, and who am I to refuse those who've bought me a virtual coffee?

It's late here in Orlando, so I'm making these episode notes brief:

The reason I come year after year to Podcast Movements and other events? It's to see my friends. It's to make acquaintances into friends. And it's to make a whole lot of new friends. Because the friends I make are the kinds of people who'll make podcasting better.

I'm putting my money where my mouth is, and I'm registering for Podcast Movement 2020 -- both of them! -- as soon as this episode posts. You should buy yours too before the price goes up.

Because yeah... you wanna come meet my friends. And make them your friends too.

Mentioned in this episode:

Support For Abortion Rights

While Americans overwhelmingly support the right of an individual to make their own decisions about abortion, unfortunately, that right is no longer protected everywhere in the U.S. The Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade on June 24th.

Abortion is a basic healthcare need for the millions of people who can become pregnant. Everyone should have the freedom to decide what’s best for themselves and their families, including when it comes to ending a pregnancy. This decision has dire consequences for individual health and safety, and could have harsh repercussions for other landmark decisions.

Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health and independence of all Americans. Even if you live in a state where abortion rights are upheld, access to safe medical procedures shouldn’t be determined by location, and it shouldn't be the privilege of a small few.

You can help by donating to local abortion funds. To find out where to donate for each state, visit donations4abortion.com.

If you or someone you know needs help, or if you want to get more involved, here are 5 resources:

1. ShoutYourAbortion.com is a campaign to normalize abortion.

2. DontBanEquality.com is a campaign for companies to take a stand against abortion restrictions.

3. Abortion.cafe has information about where to find clinics.

4. PlanCPills.org provides early at-home abortion pills that you can keep in your medicine cabinet.

5. Choice.CRD.co has a collection of these resources and more.

We encourage you to speak up! And spread the word.
