Episode 41 - Study on Abortion Pill Effectiveness

This week, Sarah and Mikayla discuss the second study that has come from the Ethics and Public Policy Center. Using the same data from the first study, this study looks specifically at the effectiveness of abortion pills.
Side note: Sarah thought Mikayla was turning her microphone off after recording, Mikayla thought Sarah was turning her own microphone off after recording... which resulted in a dying microphone that neither of us noticed. Audio quality this week is iffy at best. It's a competency issue, folks. and I'm trying my best. :D
