A leaked document from the US Supreme Court has sparked mass protests on the streets of America. It suggests that abortion rights could soon be dramatically wound back, if the historic Roe v Wade ruling is overturned. How did it happen, and what will it mean for Americans' reproductive rights? And what's it like to spend your life capturing the weird and wonderful quirks of the animal kingdom? We speak with wildlife documentary maker Alex Vail. Plus, the Liberal party is getting anxious about Independent candidates in some key Victorian seats. We take a look at who’s giving the Libs a run for their money, and why they could be so successful in this election. Live guests: Dr Prudence Flowers, Senior Lecturer in US History at Flinders University Alex Vail, documentary maker Claudia Long, Hack’s political reporter
