Arrrrrrrrrr. No, it's not talk like a pirate day. But we've decided to re-brand anyway as a pirate themed pod.

In that vein...in this episode, Marc and Kate discuss:

Peloton's employment practices
Infighting at the EEOC
Free coffee labor in Boston
NFL owner redux
Jorts the Cat redux

As you can tell, very pirate-y.

We take a break from our usual employment focus to discuss this week's leak of a draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade. We discuss the legal derivations of the right to privacy in United States jurisprudence and how this draft opinion, if enacted by the Court, has the real potential to chill many of the personal rights we now take for granted. If nothing else, we hope this is educational and you learn something.

Trigger Warning: May not be great for pro-lifers.
