Well, f*ck. In light of the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, we on team Getting Curious wanted to check in with our listeners.
We are devastated by this news. We also know that in difficult moments, it’s important to be in community and conversation with each other.
We have an episode in the works all about the history of reproductive care in the United States. It’s not slated for release until July—
But today, we’re bringing you a preview.
Here is an excerpt from our upcoming conversation with Professor Jacki Antonovich that explores the history of abortion care in the US, and why today’s decision is so egregious.
Jacqueline Antonovich is an Assistant Professor of History at Muhlenberg College in Allentown, PA. She is the author of the article, “White Coats, White Hoods: The Medical Politics of the KuKlux Klan in 1920s America,” and she is currently working on a book on the history of women physicians and medical imperialism in the American West. Jacqueline is the creator and co-founder of Nursing Clio, a collaborative blog project that examines the historical roots of present-day issues surrounding gender, health, and medicine.
Make sure to follow Professor Antonovich on Twitter @jackiantonovich and Nursing Clio on Twitter @NursingClio and at nursingclio.org.
Follow us on Instagram and Twitter @CuriousWithJVN to join the conversation, and find resources in light of the SCOTUS decision.
Jonathan is on Instagram and Twitter @JVN and @Jonathan.Vanness on Facebook.
Transcripts for each episode are available at JonathanVanNess.com.

This week Jason, June and Paul are breaking down the 2022 ghostly masterpiece, Until We Meet Again. This film walks the line between Governor Gabbi and a straight to cable movie and the crew is loving every minute of it. They discuss the sexy ghost shower scene, smoking “spice,” the lack of any kissing on the lips, and ponder “what do any of these characters want?” (the answer to that is still unclear).
