    Full episode transcript HERE.

    First off, we love you and know you are feeling lost, afraid and targeted. You are not alone.

    We’re gonna be real with you: we had a whole post-election breakdown planned with results and analysis and blah blah FUCK ALL THAT. Instead, we wanted to sit down with you, unscripted and real, offering a pod that holds space for your feelings and give you a start to regroup.

    AAF OGs Kristin Hady (Programs Director and resident Extremist Whisperer) and Cara McLane (Director of Communications and AAF Adventure Planner), PLUS the brilliant journalist Jessica Valenti.

    We’re leaning into our raw honesty in this moment, finding the hope, and sharing actions you can take RIGHT NOW that will keep your head out of the doomscroll and into community so we can help each other out in these terrifying times.

    Jessica Valenti is our North Star! She’s the author of the NYT bestseller Abortion: Our Bodies, Their Lies, and the Truths We Use to Win and of the acclaimed newsletter Abortion, Every Day. Jessica breaks down what these election results mean for our rights in her classic real AF style–plus, she offers us an important reminder of why we fight and why hope is very much alive.

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    ATTENTION BUZZKILLIANS: It’s our last podcast before the possible end of Democracy, so we (plus a couple of special guests) are dropping our two cents on why y’all should be FLEXING THAT VOTER MUSCLE! Got the right to vote? GO EXERCISE THAT SHI!

    AND OBVI, rage levels spiked this week as we stumbled across something called the “Aryan Nation Freedom Fest.” It’s exactly what it sounds like – PLOT TWIST: Wait till you hear how it is connected to anti-abortion maternity homes. In more exciting news – An Arizona abortion provider has found a way to legally provide abortion care to patients suffering miscarriages outside of the state’s 15-week abortion ban, and we are THRILLED to deliver this glimmer of joy and hope to your earholes.

    GUEST ROLL CALL:

    We got to kiki with actor, activist and philanthropist Torrey DeVitto! The womb warrior and One Tree Hill/Chicago Med/Vampire Diaries star chats with us on being LOUD AF about her activism and values, clapping back to the haters as a soon-to-be-parent for abortion access, her latest IG live series “Stream of Consciousness,” and telling her abortion story in People Magazine. PLUS! Renee Bracey Sherman, Co-Author of Liberating Abortion and Founder/Executive Director of We Testify is BACK with the Buzzkills to spill all the guts on her extraordinary, must-read book that deep dives into the history of abortion through re-centering the experiences of the Black and Brown folks who have had abortions and the leaders of the Reproductive Justice movement who continue to pave the path to bodily autonomy.

    SO MANY MISOGYNISTS, SO LITTLE TIME!

    LIVE FROM NETROOTS NATION 2024 #3: Yes, Pro-Faith and Pro-Abortion IS A THING! With Ashley Wilson & Rev. Terry Williams Sep 20, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    Hey there, fabulous Buzzkillians! Welcome to PART THREE of our Netroots Nation series! Remember when the AAF gang went to Baltimore earlier this summer to yap about abortion at THE coolest conference for progressive activists, AKA Netroots Nation?! The Buzzkills did three podcasts, and this is the last one in the series. It is a great episode but bittersweet because Moji got visited by La ‘Rona fairy and had to stay home, but filling in is AAF Programs Director, the incomparable Kristin Hady!

    Being at Netroots meant we got awesome guests to talk to us live! Who’s Buzzkillin’ with us this week? Well, word on the block is you can be PRO-FAITH AND PRO-ABORTION! *GASP* Here to preach that good, feminist word are TWO dope guests and inspiring faith leaders whose organizations are fighting their cheeks off to evangelize the Lord AND reproductive justice while welcoming others who are interested in doing the same with open arms. Reverend Terry Williams, Faith Organizer from Faith Choice Ohio, AND the Strategic Communications Director from Catholics for Choice, Ashley Wilson, drop all of their “Pro-Faith and Pro-Abobo 101” knowledge AND deliver the reassurance that religious freedom does indeed mean exercising the freedom to believe in abortion rights!

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    ENCORE ALERT! The Feminist Buzzkills are signing off for a two week end-of-summer break! But, no need to fear – we’re leaving y’all with some extra brain juice to help you prep for the November elections. We’re dropping an ENCORE POD EPISODE of when we brought in an all-star team of experts to break down SCOTUS’ EMTALA ruling to keep you company while we’re offline. It went a little something like this…

    The Supreme Court FINALLY made up its mind on the fate of the Emergency Medical and Labor Act (EMTALA) earlier this summer, and your Feminist Buzzkills HAVE FACTS, FEELINGS, AND ANSWERS ABOUT IT!

    What in the abobo hell even was the Idaho v. United States case? Why is this NOT a win and NOT enough? How did the clown justices react? How does this affect other places, like Texas? And WTF happens next?! WE CALLED IN FOR BACKUP TO ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS!

    Your Buzzkills rallied together a dope lineup of EXPERTS to break it all down with us and dissect this nondecision-decision from all angles. GUEST ROLL CALL: Attorney Stephanie Toti, who successfully argued the Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt case before the Supreme Court; Idaho reproductive rights activist Jen Jackson Quintano; Idaho OB-GYN and abortion provider Dr. Caitlin Gustafson; and Ryan Hamilton, a Texas activist who has been vocal about his and his wife's experience in accessing emergency abortion care. You don’t wanna miss this one.

    ENCORE: SUPREME COURT UNANIMOUSLY PROTECTS MIFEPRISTONE With Chris Geidner Aug 09, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    How do your Feminist Buzzkills pregame for a week of yapping to politicians at the DNC about the importance of medication abortion? By dropping an ENCORE PRESENTATION of our Mifepristone SCOTUS ruling episode to remind you what is at stake in this election.

    MIFEPRISTONE IS HERE TO STAY… For Now. Back in June, the Supreme Court ruled UNANIMOUSLY in favor of keeping the abortion pill mifepristone available, but only because even these woman-haters had to rule that the monsters who brought this case had ZERO skin in the game. This episode covers all the anti-abobo scheming that went into get this case to SCOTUS and why the results of this election could mean a new and very scary outcome when anti abortion forces circle back and try again. AND.THEY.WILL.

    Here to fill your earholes with answers to our burning questions like, “Is this all part of a bigger conservative plan to outlaw abortion?” and “Why did the Supreme Court even take this case to begin with?,” is the one and only, author, legal expert and our favorite Law Dork, Chris Geidner!

    This episode is a good reminder of how important it is to center abortion at the ballot box.

    OYEZ! OYEZ! SCOTUS has dropped the EMTALA decision… Which should have been front and center in last night’s “Grumpy Old Men” reboot, but never fear, YOUR BUZZKILLS ARE HERE! The Supreme Court FINALLY made up its mind on the fate of the Emergency Medical and Labor Act (EMTALA) yesterday and your Feminist Buzzkills HAVE FACTS AND FEELINGS ABOUT IT!

    What in the abobo hell even was the Idaho v. United States case? Why is this NOT a win and NOT enough? How did the clown justices react? How does this affect other places, like Texas? And WTF happens next?! WE CALLED IN FOR BACKUP TO ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS!

    Your Buzzkills rallied together a dope lineup of EXPERTS to break it all down with us and dissect this nondecision-decision from all angles. GUEST ROLL CALL: Attorney Stephanie Toti, who successfully argued the Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt case before the Supreme Court; Idaho reproductive rights activist Jen Jackson Quintano; Idaho OB-GYN and abortion provider Dr. Caitlin Gustafson; and Ryan Hamilton, a Texas activist who has been vocal about his and his wife's experience in accessing emergency abortion care.

    SUPREME COURT UNANIMOUSLY PROTECTS MIFEPRISTONE With Chris Geidner Jun 14, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    MIFEPRISTONE IS HERE TO STAY!! For Now… The Supreme Court did a thing that we actually aren’t pissed about! This week, the Supremes ruled UNANIMOUSLY in favor of the abortion pill mifepristone! The Court rebuffed an unfounded and politically-charged challenge to the drug from anti-abortion assholes, and not even oppression’s handmaid Brett Kavanaugh took the bait. Good news can’t be celebrated without a whole lot of bitching and dragging of the anti-abobo scheming that also went down this week. Who’s on our shitlist? Some misogynist visionary clowns pulling some BS in the South, of course!

    So what comes next? Is this all part of a bigger conservative plan to outlaw abortion? Why did the Supreme Court even take this case to begin with? We’ve got questions AND we brought in the best in the biz to deliver the answers. Here to fill your earholes with their knowledge is the one and only publisher, author, legal expert and our favorite Law Dork, Chris Geidner!

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Someone Come Get Your 20ft Inflatable IUD! With Amanda Zurawski, Sarah Hester Ross & Mary Rickles Jun 07, 2024

    Congrats on another week of surviving and fighting the patriarchy! Get your earholes ready because this week was a doozy. I think we all know by now, what happens in Texas does NOT stay in Texas. What BS are the womb hounds that run the Lone Star State pulling now? Their new kink is to blame doctors for people being denied abortion care. PLUS, the professors at University of Texas drank the kool-aid and are suing to be able to FLUNK students who get abortions. Apparently, 2+2=WHORE!

    Oh, and remember the Zurawski v. Texas case we’ve been following for over a year? Joining us to talk about what it all means and her tremendous commitment to fight for us all is lead plaintiff in the case, Amanda Zurawski. Check out a full list of their plaintiffs here. And obvi we’re gonna drag the Senate for failing to protect birth control and laugh about the 20-foot IUD erected in DC!

    AND EVEN MORE GUESTS It’s the Liberace of abortion! Musical Comedian, Sarah Hester Ross, is on spirit-lifting duty. The funny AF abortion stan originally from the Sunshine State yaps with us about her special Don’t Mess With a Redhead, her fun little series “Florida Man Fridays,” and pushing boundaries talking about abortion, sexism, and queerness through her musical comedy.

    PLUS! Every year, we drag our abobo-loving booties over to Netroots Nation, AKA summer camp for progressives, to broadcast live and link up with our fav radical activists from all over. What goes down there? How does Netroots elevate issues, intersectionality, and what’s so special about it this election year? Political Director of Netroots Nation, Mary Rickles, hops in to Buzzkill with us about it all.

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Don’t Abandon The South With Nika Kovač, Tyler Barbarin, & Kate Willett May 31, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    Biscuits, BBQ, and Bodily Autonomy - guess which one you won’t find in the South? We are in FULL rampage mode over the latest update out of Louisiana. The clown governor just signed into law a horrifying bill that reclassifies FDA APPROVED AND EXTREMELY SAFE abortion medications as "controlled dangerous substances." What does this mean for pregnant Louisianans? We brought in Tyler Barbarin of Louisiana Abortion Fund to unpack it all.

    PLUS, Texas hits us where it hurts...TWICE. We drag the Texas Health Department for filth for replacing an actual expert on their Maternal Mortality Committee with ANTI-ABORTION fetus-worshipper, Dr. Ingrid Skop. WAIT - It gets worse! Texas Republicans reaffirmed in their party platform that the penalty for aborting any and all fertilized eggs that colonize your uterus is the DEATH PENALTY.

    WE GOT MORE GUESTS!! Slovenia's very own powerhouse activist, Nika Kovač is here! The Founding Director of 8th of March Institute tells us about the My Voice, My Choice abortion access initiative, getting doxxed by the ex-prime minister, and how she's obliterating the patriarchy in Europe. WHERE THE LAUGHS AT? Comedian & Author, Kate Willett, has us laughing our nip hairs off about polyamorous horror stories, her new special "Loopholes," and being loud about abortion in her comedy!

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Alabama’s Katie Britt Is All Up In Your Business With Dr. Ghazaleh Moayedi & Atheer Yacoub May 17, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    Lizz is out this week, but MOJI IS NOT ALONE. The fabulous and funny AF Abortion Access Front Head Writer, Alyssa “Dooks” Al-Dookhi, is BACK in the house to lead us through the anti-abortion fire – I mean, co-host – yet again! What do we got for y’all this week? Oh, how our tea spilleth over…

    We’ve got an UPDATE on that dusty-ass 1864 anti-abobo law Arizona clowns have been obsessed with resurrecting, and spoiler: it’s GOOD NEWS! PLUS, your Feminist Buzzkills are dishing the dirty deets on how deranged Alabama Senator, Katie Britt, decided to celebrate Mother’s Day with the reveal of a Big Brother-esque, pregnant person database for anti-abortion centers. OH, and Kansas is out here playing sugar daddy for their state’s FAKE clinics with YOUR tax dollars, AGAIN! As always, we’re breaking it all down for you and then some.

    OBVI we have TWO special rockstar guests! The hilaaarious comedian and co-creator of “Muslim Girls DTF,” Atheer Yacoub, kikis with us on being Arab AND pro-abortion in Alabama, her debut album “Denied Entry,” and how to piss off the right people while educating folks through comedy! PLUS, the brilliant Dr. Ghazaleh Moayedi, founder of Pegasus Health Justice Center, talks abobo care beyond Texas borders, telehealth, race theory in healthcare, and why abortion funds are the fucking G.O.A.T.

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    This episode was taped LIVE from the stunning Brownstone Cowboys Magazine HQ!

    Indiana Rules Abortion Is a Religious Right With Laurie Kilmartin & Tracy Weitz Apr 12, 2024

    The Feminist Buzzkills are in FULL rage mode this week as our heads are still spinning from Arizona’s latest assault on people with a uterus. The ghouls on Arizona’s Supreme Court ruled that an 1864 abortion ban will be enforced in less than TWO WEEKS. Plus, what does it mean when three judges agree that Indiana’s near-total abortion ban does in fact violate Hoosiers’ religious freedom?

    And the anti-abobo clowns Ohio try to push a whole new pile of nonsense on their constituents. Listen to Moji and me drag it for the stank filth that it is.

    Need all the deets? We got you. Need to let your primal scream out? We got you on that too.

    GUEST ROLL CALL: Dr. Tracy Weitz, Professor of Sociology and Director for the Center on Health, Risk, and Society at American University in DC is Buzzkilling with us! She’s THE SMARTEST person we know when it comes to all things abortion – data, shitty policies and all. *chef’s kiss.*

    PLUS! Hilarious comedian and award-winning writer, Laurie Kilmartin, who you probably recognize from “The Late Late Show with James Corden” is here! We shoot the shit with her on her new special “Cis Woke Grief Slut,” saying “abortion” on stage, disrupting the writers’ room boys club, and more!

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    What went down with bodily autonomy this week? The South is indeed Southing! The Florida Supreme Court hit the Sunshiners where it hurts– right in the ute. We bring you all the tea on what the Florida six-week ban means for abortion seekers throughout the South. BUT can the state’s ballot initiative save the day? AND what happens when Texas fucks around and charges a woman with MURDER for self-managing her abortion?!

    Buzzkills from SCOTUS: Breaking Down the Mifepristone Oral Arguments with Dr. Michele Goodwin Mar 27, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    The Feminist Buzzkills were at SCOTUS for the abortion pill, AKA Mifepristone, oral arguments with the Abortion Access Front team and some dope-ass volunteers! We took to the streets of DC with rage, force, and Beyoncé on full blast. If you haven’t heard us rant about it a million times already, our beloved LIFE-SAVING Mifepristone pill is being challenged, even though it has been FDA-approved and safely used for over 20 years!!

    Didn’t get a chance to hear yesterday’s arguments? Need some clarity on WTF it all means? Well, that’s what your Feminist Buzzkills are for! Let Lizz, Moji, Dooks, and a special guest spill about all of the things that went down inside AND outside of the Supreme Court during the oral arguments.

    SPECIAL GUEST ALERT! We brought in the best in the biz - brilliant author, constitutional law scholar, and Abortion Access Front board member Dr. Michele Goodwin. She sits down with us to recap the good, the bad, and the cringey of yesterday’s oral arguments. What did Justice Amy Coney Barrett say? How many slam dunks did Justice Jackson gift us? Are they going after EMTALA next? We explain that and so much more!

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    The Scare Tactics of the Anti-abortion Mob With E.R. Fightmaster & Tània Verge Mar 15, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    Lizz is back! This week’s secret words are “Fightmaster” and “Catalonia” – and they’re both making this world a much doper and safer place for folks with uteruses. Your Feminist Buzzkills are ranting and raging about the anti-abortion movement’s talent for inventing fake problems to solve, and then miraculously solving them. We’re also diving hard into these clowns’ obsession with abortion coercion and spotlighting northern Idaho’s Jen Jackson Quintano, the lone abortion rights organizer holding down the fort and building an army of womb warriors.

    GUEST ROLL CALL: The one and only, E.R. Fightmaster IS HERE! They rant with us on non-toxic masculinity, queer joy, how doctors and abortion activists can be more inclusive, and why everyone needs to go stream their EP Violence RIGHT NOW! PLUS, Catalonia’s very own Minister of Feminisms, Tània Verge Mestre, blesses us with her knowledge on intersectional feminist politics in Catalonia (AKA Feminist Paradise), getting a seat at the table, menstrual equity and its ties to gender and climate justice, and so much more. This is a powerful one!

    Unraveling The Impact of Denied Abortions With Dr. Diana Greene Foster Feb 17, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    Well, well, it’s not every day your Buzzkills are graced with a MacArthur Genius fellow, but today is NOT one of those days!

    Dr. Diana Foster Greene is in the pod house talking about her award-winning research paper, The Turnaway Study, which is a comprehensive look at the harms caused by folks being denied abortion care. It is incredible.

    Lizz is out on the film festival circuit with the AAF documentary No One Asked You, so our intrepid news dumper Alyssa “Dooks” Al-Dookhi is holding it down with Moji, and they are digging deeper into the biggest stories of the week.

    There is righteous news from pro-choice South Carolina politicians who are trolling the menz who passed their neanderthal abortion bans. Their new bill demands the state to pay for EVERY SINGLE COST associated with pregnancy. It is the energy we need to see across all these states where barbarians mind the gate.

    Also, WOOF! As if we don’t have enough to worry about, ABORTION PILL ROOFIEing IS APPARENTLY A THING.

    You might wanna listen to this one with a scream pillow.

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    SAVE THE DATE: March 26th is the date the Supreme Court will hear the abortion pill (mifepristone) case! What does this mean? What quack evidence did the anti-abobo clowns drag in? The Buzzkills got you. And when the awful-est activists in the country aren’t in court trying to destroy us? They’re working tirelessly behind the scenes on an anti-abobo-core thing called Project 2025. WTF is it? How will it fuck with your rights? And what can we do about it? We’ll decode it all for you. PLUS une énorme abobo win in France, oui oui!

    WOOF. WHAT A WEEK. Who did we call in for backup? SPECIAL GUEST ROLL CALL: Sociologist Dr. Gretchen Sisson talks about her upcoming book, Relinquished, which explores the realities of choosing adoption, how we should talk about adoption and abortion together, and what she learned on her 10-year journey examining all of it.

    PLUS, the hilare comedian and video maker Dylan McKeever takes us to Queer University! She gabs it up with us on monogamy, dating Zillennials, creative autonomy, comedy in times of darkness, and how she relaxes.

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    The anti-abortion ghouls are ghouling this week and the Feminist Buzzkills are exposing and Buzzkilling! WHERE DO WE BEGIN?! How can a SCOTUS case about a HERRING FISHERY possibly destroy abortion access? WTF is the “Chevron Doctrine?” What’s with the F’ed up trend of redefining helping someone get an abortion as “abortion trafficking?!” The Buzzkills got you covered!

Anna Eskamani, an abortion MVP in the Sunshine State, to help decode the absolute chaos cavern that is the land of Disney. She explains their new shitty abortion bill and their awesome ballot initiative, laments the return of DeSatan, and delivers marching orders on what pro-choice politicians can do.

    PLUS, the fabulous multi-hyphenate, Shea Couleé of Drag Race All Stars IS HERE! She kikis with us about drag as a love letter to Black women, Black feminine divinity, radical self-expression, bodily autonomy, AND Her upcoming “Love Ball” tour.

    March for Life Madness 2024 With Kristin Hady & Grace Howard Jan 20, 2024

    Today’s weather in our nation’s capital was mostly patriarchy with scattered showers of dude-splaining, because today was the 50th annual MARCH FOR LIFE, the country’s biggest gathering of anti-abortion dickbags! Your Feminist Buzzkills watched so you don’t have to and we are naming, shaming, exposing and dragging the whole thing for filth, just the way we always do.

    Did they try to appear like compassionate and reasonable uterus-policing ogres now that they know just how much America is against them? Or did they just double down on the extremism? And what are they planning for 2024? WE ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS and so much more.

    To break it all down, we brought in one of the best in the biz, AAF’s very own Extremist Whisperer, Kristin Hady. She helps cut through all the BS and gives y’all the inside scoop on all the players involved in this year’s Oppressionpallooza.

    PLUS, Dr. Grace Howard is here! Grace literally wrote the book on the Pregnancy Police, i.e. all the ways the fascists want to criminalize and control every pregnancy. We’re blabbing with her on the criminalization of pregnant people post-Roe, how there are no “havens,” and what we can do to shut down the policing of pregnant people.

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Texas and Idaho Don’t Care if You Die. With Lauren Miller, Pamela Merritt & Emma Willmann Jan 12, 2024

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    New Year, New Pod Episode, Same Anti-Abortion Cruelty and Inhumanity! Happy 2024 fellow abobo warriors. Lizz is out this week but we got AAF comedy genius Alyssa “Dooks” Al-Dookhi holding down the fort with Moji, and they’re serving y’all all the tea we’ve been pissed about… *cough cough* we’re looking at you, Texas and Idaho. WTF did they do this time? WTF is EMTALA? And WTF can you do about it? Fuck around, listen, and find out.

    Meet Lauren Miller, one of the TWENTY-TWO women suing wack-ass Texas after being denied life-saving abortion care. She joins the Buzzkills to share her gut-wrenching horror story with us and give you marching orders on how YOU can help.

    PLUS, the brilliant Pamela Merritt of Medical Students for Choice is in the house to remind us abortion ban exceptions are BULLSHIT. She breaks down everything we need to know about EMTALA and gives us the doctor’s POV on how terrifying it is to practice under these vile garbage conditions.

    WHERE’S OUR SEROTONIN BOOST AT? Comedian Emma Willmann from the “Ask Men Anything” podcast pops by to deliver the laughs, gab about the wonders of Adderall and to answer that age-old question: Is it ever worth it to ask men anything?

    STACKED POD ALERT: What a pod we have this week, Buzzkillians! In case you missed it, the fuckwads over at SCOTUS decided to take on the mifepristone abobo pill case. WTF does it all mean? Chris Geidner, the brilliant Law Dork himself, swoops in to translate it out of dorky law words and into plain English for us. What else could possibly be getting the anti-abobo goblins’ rocks off this week? How about Missouri’s new bill charging abortion-havers with HOMICIDE? Or Illinois’ AG going total simp-mode for FAKE clinics? Don't worry, we’ll serve y’all some glimmers of GOOD NEWS, TOO!

    THREE more special guests are blessing your earholes. WONDER WOMAN herself, Lynda Carter, is in the house to buzzkill about obliterating the patriarchy, her new single "Rise Up," abortion, and being a clapback queen! PLUS, we pay tribute to the beloved trailblazer and repro hero, Andrea Miller, by honoring her remarkable legacy and accomplishments with Attorney Kathryn Kolbert and NIRH interim president Aisha Mills.

    BOOM! Buzzkilled With Jessica Pieklo & Imani Gandy Dec 01, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    What happens when two of our favorite abortion law experts who ALSO host their own podcast come over to guest host OUR podcast? MAGIC, BABY! This week, THE badass Imani Gandy and Jessica Pieklo from the “Boom! Lawyered” podcast co-host with Moji, and the feminist rage is on 10000! They share how their friendship was love at first tweet, what brings them hope, and how radical joy and community = POWER.

    As always, we’re spilling that pipin’ hot abobo tea on everything you need to know. Like, BALLOT INITIATIVES! All these ballot initiatives we’re winning are the shit, yeah? But are they the shit for everyone? We’re delivering the answers! Oh, and remember that lawsuit in Texas? MORE people who were denied abortion joined in, and this week there were arguments at the Texas Supreme Court. What went down? We’re droppin’ the highlights. PLUS, conservatives think it’s racist to try to help Black people with Black maternal mortality. Are they full of shit again? The answer might not surprise you!

    The weather outside is frightful (or maybe it’s fine where you are), but Feminist Buzzkills + the Boom! Lawyered hosts are so delightful!

    The Call Is Coming From Inside the House… of Representatives. With Dr. Savita Ginde & Maddie Wiener Oct 27, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    IT’S SPOOKY SEASON… which seems to be a year-round theme for the anti-abortion ghouls haunting our bodily autonomy. But, no need to fear! Your zombie-slaying Feminist Buzzkills are here to drop the facts on EVERYTHING you and your uterus need to know, deliver some hope, and drop marching orders on how we can continue obliterating the patriarchy.

    If things aren’t scary enough, we’re shining a light on the Gaetz of Hell, er– House of Representatives, and its new Speaker. And we expose more shady medical shenanigans from the sketchy-ass doctor who made up the medical quackery that is “abortion reversal.” OH, THE HORROR!

    PLUS, remember that evil weirdo David Daleiden, who tried to ruin abortion providers’ lives with his deceptively edited videos about fetus parts? Dr. Savita Ginde was one of his victims, and she joins us to tell the whole sordid tale. AND comedian Maddie Wiener is here to make us laugh our nips off, talk about her “Phone Is In The Bag” podcast, what feminism looks like to her, AND MORE!

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Call a Doctor, Go to Jail? With Elizabeth Estrada Oct 13, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

There’s some accountability happening for all the awful sidewalk harassment going down outside of clinics in Kansas, South Carolina & Tennessee! We’re covering it all plus more.

    WHO’S OUR SHINING BADASS ABOBO WARRIOR GUEST THIS WEEK? It’s none other than policy guru over at the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice, Elizabeth Estrada. She pops in to talk about the recent National Partnership for Women and Families study that exposes the facts of what abortion bans and challenges to access look like for the Latinx community across the country, and to blab about intersectionality, the HEAL act, and more!

    Catholic Hospitals Are Cannibalizing Abortion Access! With Aida Rodriguez & Vanessa Arenas Oct 06, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    The garbage anti-abobo people of America got real busy this week, but no need to fear, your Feminist Buzzkills are here to sift through all of the hot steaming trash for y’all! Catholic hospitals are doing what they do best and gobbling up small non-religiously-affiliated hospitals. We’re also blabbing about Qatar Airways announcing it will NO LONGER do invasive gynecological exams on passengers. Hold up-- what?! Yeah, it’s a thing, and the details of this story are soooo disgusting you may wanna wear a hazmat suit when you listen. We’re breaking it all down and more including the juicy deets on Texas AG Ken Paxton suing Yelp for identifying fake clinics as…um… fake clinics. We couldn’t make this shit up if we tried.

    SPECIAL GUEST ROLL CALL: The Buzzkills welcome stellar researcher and Senior Project Manager at The Society of Family Planning, Vanessa Arenas, to talk about the assault on birth control, their latest extensive study on accessing care post-Dobbs, AKA #WeCount, and why YOU should know all about it.

    PLUS, the hilarious and inspirational comedian, actor, author, and Latina badass, Aida Rodriguez, is in the house buzzkilling with us about dragging the patriarchy in comedy and life, her new memoir Legitimate Kid and reminiscing about being on the battleground with AAF. Every exhale is an inspiration.

    Colorado Reverses Abortion Reversal With Danielle Perez & Jas Margarita Tobon Sep 29, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    All new podisode, all new SHIT WE CANNOT BELIEVE WE HAVE TO SAY. Colorado has taken the RADICAL position of saying you cannot take pills to reverse your abortion. Why RADICAL? Because in many of these United States, doctors are required to recommend that BS now, and the Buzzkills are here to rage and remind you that you cannot “Back To The Future” your abortion.

    PLUS we’ll bring y’all up to speed on mean old Southwest Airlines and its war on innocent anti-abortion flight attendants who just want to send their colleagues candygrams full of fetus porn. It is the creepy abortion lawsuit that keeps on giving… us a rash. Oh, and some Ohioan doctors are actually in their right minds and want to protect patients– we’ve got the scoop on all that too.

    And as always, we’ve got special guests! From Dicks: The Musical, the hilarious Danielle Perez is here to gently remind us that we have kinda been big ol’ ableist assholes when it comes to our abortion advocacy. (No, really.) She shares her abobo story, intersectionality and being Dominican in Los Angeles.

    And how does the ONE employee at the Wild West Abortion Fund in Nevada handle getting care for everyone out there who needs a damn abortion? Jas Margarita Tobon is that one employee, and she’s spilling the whole truth about it, the challenges they face and the power of community.

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Kansassholes Are Next Level! with Barry W. Lynn Sep 16, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    Big pod this week, diving right in! Soooo remember how Kansas voted to protect abortion access in a landslide ballot initiative? Guess that didn’t matter to the anti-abortion babadooks in the Kansas legislature. Ever since that win, they have FOUR DIFFERENT abortion restrictions that are laughably terrifying. We are breaking down every single one of them and asking how these creeps keep getting elected when the people of Kansas voted overwhelmingly against these kinds of policies.

    And all this is happening while in the same week, 12 more people just sued because they almost died without abortion access. It’s grim, but we always bring the facts, the funny, and the ways you can fight back!

    PLUS, Barry Lynn from Americans United For Separation of Church and State is our guest! He’s been fighting to keep religion out of government and our underpants forEVER, and he’s dishing with your Buzzkills about his entire life of being “Paid To Piss People Off” (that’s the name of his memoirs!). This guy has been in the abortion fight from the beginning. Also, he has gossip about Dead Phyllis Schlafly.

    Abortion in Mexico? ¡Sí Se Puede! With Emma Arnold & Katie Quiñonez Sep 08, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    The Feminist Buzzkills are back from break and guess who became more progressive than the USA while we were away? MEXICO, BABY! Their blissfully Amy Coney Barrett-free Supreme Court just DECRIMINALIZED ABORTION NATIONWIDE. It’s a huge deal and on this week’s pod, Moji and Lizz are sipping margaritas and explaining HOW huge, both for our southern neighbor AND for those of us in Los Estados Unidos. We’re also catching you uterus warriors up with this fall’s abortion ballot initiative in Ohio and what the fallout will be if the Florida Supreme Court finds abortion is NOT protected in their constitution!

    PLUS, we’re bringing y’all some fabu special guests, as per ushe. What’s it like being an abortion provider in Joe Manchin’s abortion-less West Virginia? Katie Quiñonez fills us in! The Executive Director of the Women's Health Centers of West Virginia and Maryland delivers the facts on what abobo access in WV looks like, the challenges they’ve faced while opening their NEW MD clinic, why fake clinics are trash and more!

    AND to help us laugh through these shenanigans, the incredible comedian Emma Arnold is in the house! This hilarious TERF-slaying Idaho supermom drops all the knowledge about abortion, intersectional feminism, and... Beekeeping? Yep! You don’t wanna miss it!

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Doctors Aren’t Safe and Red States Are Paying the Price: Live From Netroots Nation (PT. 3) With Pamela Merritt Aug 18, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    There’s an abortion training crisis, Buzzkills, and Lizz and Moji want YOU to be informed. In this week’s episode, we get DEEP into it with the oh-so-marvelous Pamela Merritt, Executive Director of Medical Students for Choice. She’s here to educate your earholes with all the deets on how doctors and med students are fleeing states with shitty abortion bans, why EVERY med professional needs abortion training, and how dangerous this is for OBGYN care across America

    Your Buzzkills also expose the latest horror story about fake clinics, which involves a pregnant woman who found out in the WORST way just how dangerous these places are and decided to fight back with a class-action lawsuit.

    The awesome episode is the last one of the three we recorded live back in July at the Netroots Nation gathering in Chicago. Netroots is the largest gathering of progressive writers, activists, and organizers in America, and the Buzzkills were front and center every day, dropping our abortion knowledge in front of hundreds of attendees each day!

    Hope you enjoy it!

    Ohio? More Like OhiOMFG We Won! With Tara Murtha, Dr. DeShawn Taylor & Stanzi Potenza Aug 11, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    This week’s Feminist Buzzkills pod is comin’ atcha from the winner’s circle, because all we do is win! Things may still be garbage, but on this week’s podisode, the Buzzkills stop and celebrate the Ohio voters who were asked to vote on abortion (in a really screwy way) and WON! Just like every ballot measure since the Supreme Court destroyed Roe. Newsflash: PEOPLE WANT ABORTION! We’re also freaking the fuck out about the nonsense going down in Idaho, Illinois, and Texas - Oh my!

    PLUS, another triple-threat guest lineup! Pennsylvania just cut off sweet, sweet government funding to FAKE CLINICS. So we’ve got Tara Murtha, Director of Strategic Communications at the Women’s Law Project, here to make sure we understand how magnificently monumental this is. The amazing Arizona OBGYN and Reproductive Justice activist Dr. DeShawn Taylor, AKA founder and owner of Desert Star Family Planning in Phoenix, talks her new book, “Undue Burden: A Black, Woman Physician on Being Christian and Pro-abortion in the Reproductive Justice Movement.” And to bring the noise and the funny, it’s TikTok superstar and host of the “What Fresh Hell is This?” podcast, Stanzi Potenza!

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Anti-abortion Tactics Have Hit New Lows! With Liz Glazer, Robin Marty & Francesca Tripodi Aug 04, 2023

    TW: Pregnancy Loss/Stillbirth

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    It’s Lizz’s birthday week!!! Celebrate with us by filling your earholes with the angelic voices of our Feminist Buzzkills. The anti-abortion tactics have gone TOO far, so we’re raging about it. We’re also spilling the pipin’ hot tea on everything that’s gone down this week in Abobolandia, including WTF is up with the latest wack abortion laws Indiana & Idaho, some Illinois drama, and so much more.

    PLUS, we’ve got all the right guests to help us muck through the muckity muck.

    Operations director at West Alabama Women’s Center, Robin Marty joins to give us the lowdown on the Alabama lawsuit her clinic and another provider filed this week that would ban the use of an Alabama criminal conspiracy statute to prosecute folks helping patients get abortion care out of state.

    Iconic comedian and actor Liz Glazer drops by to get real with us on how abortion conversations need to be louder about stillbirths and miscarriages, healing through humor, her new album, and more. AND sociologist and author of “The Propagandists Playbook, Francesca Tripodi is in the house to show us exactly how anti-abortion ghouls bring their crackpot ideas from conspiracy to consensus.

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.
    Update since recording: A US judge has blocked the new Illinois law allowing the state to penalize anti-abortion pregnancy centers

    Your Buzzkills Are Live From Atlanta With Baron Vaughn, Brian Unger & Atlanta Reproductive Justice Leaders Jul 28, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    The Feminist Buzzkills did a whole-ass LIVE SHOW in ATLANTA! We didn’t want y’all to miss out on our shenanigans, so we podified it for you! We packed the house at Terminal West, a dope comedy and music venue, and fed off all the vibezzzzzzz. As always, Moji and I broke down the stories that made steam blow out of our wherevers. Fetus lawyers? Abortion reporting across state lines? It’s just as creepy as it sounds.

    We also had FIVE amazeballs guests join our southern soirée. Comedian Baron Vaughn hilariously shared why he moved to Atlanta, the challenges of raising kids in this current hellscape, and why the Writers Guild of America/Screen Actors Guild strikes are something we all should care about. Plus, we had the BEST fake TV Lawyer™ (AKA Brian Unger) do a very special fake commercial! We talked with INCREDIBLE Georgia Reproductive Justice activists and abortion providers Agbo Ikor, Kwajelyn Jackson, and Inyang Njoku about all the issues in Georgia around the six-week ban, the insidious rise of fake clinics and how Cop City is a huge Reproductive Justice issue.

    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

    Welcome to PART TWO of the Feminist Buzzkills LIVE from Netroots Nation, AKA the largest gathering of progressive writers, activists, and organizers in America!

    The Supreme Court has us pissed off and unwell… again. Your Feminist Buzzkills are channeling that rage into another podisode for your earholes! Have you ever heard of a molar pregnancy? We hadn’t either. And spoiler alert: it’s terrifying.

    This episode is hard but important. We have an exclusive interview with one of the pod’s oldest friends, telling her own extremely personal, heartbreaking abortion story. Amber Gavin, AAF OG and VP of Advocacy and Operations over at A Woman’s Choice Clinics, drops in to share her chilling molar pregnancy story for the first time.

    PLUS, Katherine Riley, the Policy Director of COLOR Latina, AKA the ONLY Latinx-led reproductive justice organization in all of Colorado, is here. She talks with us about how Latinx Coloradans are doing the absolute most for abortion access, intersectionality, and shares all of the amazing kick-ass work COLOR does.

    Somebody Somewhere Needs an Abortion Jun 09, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    The Feminist Buzzkills are back this week with a series of important questions, like, “Are there fetuses in the water, and is that why it’s so refreshing?” And, “If you’re cooking with fetuses, should you follow the recipe, or automatically double it like you do with garlic?” The Buzzkills have the rundown on why they cannot stop making these jokes. Spoiler: it involves anti-abortion lunatics.


    Plus, this week’s show is literally overflowing with cool-ass guests (overflowing with abortion water? perhaps)! One of the hilarious stars of the HBO show Somebody Somewhere, Jeff Hiller, came by to discuss the ABCs: Abortion, Buttholes, and Christianity. TikTok megastar V Spehar helped the Buzzkills rage about the most heartbreaking abortion story of the week. PLUS! Dope activists from New York City for Abortion Rights (NYCFAR) came by to share their mischievous tips for pissing off anti-abortion protesters.


    Finally, on a personal Buzzkills note, this is Marie Khan’s last show! She’ll still be in the abortion movement, just not on the Buzzkills squad. She’s not going far! Lizz and Moji give her the send-off she deserves!


    ATL! LIVE SHOW ALERT!

    When you’re done filling your earholes with the angelic rage-filled voices of the Feminist Buzzkills, go get your TICKETS to our LIVE ATLANTA SHOW on July 20th! You can bring the rage and your Q’s, we’ll supply the Buzzkillin’ and some answers!

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    Looks like this summer’s shittiest must-have is shaping up to be … 12-week abortion bans? Yup, and we’re pissed about it. Your Feminist Buzzkills are here to break down why this trend is worse than the fur bikini. That’s not all that we are raging about! The wack anti-abobo ghouls in Nebraska want a teen and her mom behind bars for a self-managed abortion, and Texas is being MEGA sued for their total abortion ban leading to a complete lack of care for pregnant people in medical emergencies. We’re spilling the tea on all this and more!


    PLUS, two dope special guests joined in on the Buzzkillin’! Comedian and AAF stan, Jenny Yang, is in the house! She talks writers’ strike, her live show “Self Help Me,” her abobo story, and more! Rebecca Tong, Co-Executive Director of Trust Women, drops in to share WTF is going on for uteri in Oklahoma and Kansas and what YOU can do about it.


    NYC! LIVE SHOW ALERT!

    And when you’re done filling your earholes with the angelic rage-filled voices of the Feminist Buzzkills, go get your TICKETS to our LIVE NYC SHOW on June 7th at Drom in the East Village! You can bring the rage and your Q’s, we’ll supply the Buzzkillin’ and some answers!

    They’re Anti-abortion, Anti-trans & Anti-truth May 19, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    Greetings fellow Buzzkillers! Moji & Marie are holding it down while Lizz is in Boulder raising money for clinics and doing a special FBK episode on this week’s Mife Oral Arguments that you should also check out!

    But never fear, M&M are covering every godawful state legislature currently hurting people who need abortions which seems to be spewing out of the good ol’ South lately, but if you need proof that the right-wing war on abortion is the SAME as the right-wing war on trans folks, wait til you hear what the hell they just did in Nebraska.


    Plus, just how are anti-abortion fake clinics misusing the FACE Act for their misogynistic garbage agenda? Former AAF managing director and current AAF data guru Kat Green stops by to answer that question with research and receipts she has collected from her new data and security firm, the Endora Project.


    AAAAND, two other guests are here to rage with us! Co-founder of Pandia Health, Dr. Sophia Yen, is here with the FACTS you need to know! She chats with us about getting your hands on birth control, how period suppression can decrease the risk of cancer (say wha?!), the kick-ass work Pandia does, and more! PLUS, comedian/activist/yoga bitch/shit stirrer, Francesca Fiorentini, is in the house. She gets REAL AF about her activism, her podcast “The Bitchuation Room,” making her own skincare, and more.


    And when you’re done filling your earholes with the angelic rage-filled voices of the Feminist Buzzkills, get your booty on over to our virtual AAF petition to save the abortion pill! SIGN IT, AND SEND IT TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO CARES ABOUT UTERI.

    • The facts on the judges
    • How both sides presented

    The Chupacabra Abortion Ban Eating Us All May 12, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    This week, the Feminist Buzzkills go deep on a whole lot of sketchy shit spewing out of Texas including an OG anti-abortion law most people don’t know about that requires medical professionals to report ALL KINDS OF THINGS as “abortion complications,” even things that have literally nothing to do with abortion. A North Carolina rep flips on abortion, Louisiana legislature doesn’t give a flying fuckaroo about human decency, Alabama & Missouri are acting up, and so much more. PLUS: Lizz is challenged to link Wu-Tang to abortion!

    You don’t want to miss this.


    Helping us wade through all the highs, lows, and in-betweens are two amazing guests! The hilarious and iconic Irene Tu Buzzkills it up with us. She chats about being provocative, Big They Energy, Taylor Swift, and how to deal with the haters! PLUS, it’s Sex Ed for All Month so we brought in the best in the biz. Christine Harley, CEO of SIECUS, to get us up to speed on comprehensive sex ed that is truly inclusive, affirming, and also advances reproductive justice!


    And when you’re done filling your earholes with the angelic rage-filled voices of the Feminist Buzzkills, get your booty on over to our virtual AAF petition, SIGN IT AND SEND IT TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO CARES ABOUT UTERI.

    The rumors are indeed true– Fox News aborted a 2,028 week-old baby, AKA Tucker Carlson. The Feminist Buzzkills are poppin’ off and reading every receipt on the hidden BS this fucker has done to ramp up and incite hatred against women, trans folks, non-binary people, and everybody who’s ever needed or provided an abortion.

    What’s the Buzz: Everything You Need to Know About the Mifepristone Case Apr 21, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    The Feminist Buzzkills are having déjà vu all over again this week, as it’s yet another Friday and we’re waiting to see what Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito is going to do to our abortion rights.


    Now raise your hand if you’ve been losing your marbles over this Mifepristone abortion pill circle jerk. No need to fear, we’ve got Senior Counsel of The Lawyering Project, Tanya Pellegrini, with us to hold our hands through it. She lays out ALL the things we need to know, what comes next, and what YOU can do about it!


    We’re also serving y’all the biggest and freshest abobo tea from this week. Expect a couple of bright spots, like some knowledge on an OG abortion tool known as manual uterine aspiration (cue the oooh’s and ahhh’s) and even some good news out of Nebraska!


    PLUS, the funniest bitch we know, Marcella Arguello, is in the house! The FAB comic, writer, and actor supplies the laughs and the serotonin boost you need, talks about her HBO Max comedy special “Bitch, Grow Up!,” discovering her wokeness, what’s bringing her joy amongst the chaos, and why we should all stan Aida Rodriguez.


    And when you’re done filling your earholes with the angelic, rage-filled voices of the Feminist Buzzkills, get your booty on over to our virtual AAF petition asking the FDA to protect mifepristone, SIGN IT AND SEND IT TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO CARES ABOUT UTERI.

    Full episode transcript is HERE.


    SPECIAL PODISODE ALERT! This week’s pod drop is ANYTHING but regular. The abortion pill BS doesn’t seem to be stopping, so your favorite Feminist Buzzkills put together an hour-long serotonin boost for y’all. It’s a special episode featuring some incredible abobo-loving, cis dude stand-ups who recently did a comedy fundraiser for Abortion Access Front in LA, it was funny, smart and we raised some serious cash. They sat down with Lizz to talk about life, comedy and their support of abortion rights and we podified it! We know, we know – the last thing you want after a week of abortion medication pill will-they-won’t-they is MORE cis men yammering in your earhole about reproductive rights. BUT hear us out! It’s been a craptabulous week for abortion so we wanted to remind y’all that there are some pretty cool cis bro allies fighting the good fight. Oh and the cherry on top? The HILARIOUS, iconic and amazing Helen Hong kept all these guys in check, so Lizz chatted it up with her too! And when you’re done getting a much-needed recharge from this episode, get your booty over to our virtual AAF petition asking the FDA to keep Mifepristone on the shelves and accessible, SIGN IT AND SEND IT TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO CARES ABOUT UTERI.


    Times are heavy, but we got you.

    The Latest Abortion Pill Ruling Explained With Dr. Michele Goodwin Apr 13, 2023

    The “Feminist Buzzkills” podcast is dropping an extra breaking news mini- episode this week to explain what the hell the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals just did in response to Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk’s recent ruling on the (totally safe) abortion drug mifepristone. Is it a win? It is NOT A WIN. Is Kacsmaryk still the religious right’s favorite activist judge? He sure is, but this Fifth Circuit panel is giving him a run for his money.Joining the Buzzkills to clear up the confusion is one of the nation’s foremost experts on constitutional law AND a reproductive justice scholar- and law professor Dr. Michele Goodwin.

    Dr. Goodwin explains the legal gymnastics the original judge and the appeals panel went through to copy/paste the arguments made by the anti-abortion doctors (and anti-abortion dentists) who brought the case.

    She explains the new limits the Fifth Circuit appeals court put on the distribution of the abortion drug, and what this means for access even in states that protect abortion rights.

    Surprise: turns out when anti-abortion activists said they wanted to let states decide on their own abortion laws, they were lying. Tune in to learn the facts and what you can do to fight back, start by signing this petition!

    Your Abortion Data Is Not Safe Apr 07, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    This week, on the ONLY weekly abortion podcast made by people IN the abortion field, your Feminist Buzzkills celebrate some MAJOR wins in Wisconsin! One of which includes AAF bestie, the fabulous and unstoppable Dina Nina being elected alder, making her the first openly trans woman to hold office in Madison, Wisconsin! She’s blessing us with her presence and spilling all the deets on her campaign and what changes need to go down in The Dairy State.


    The Buzzkills also rage it up and serve y’all all the latest updates in the abobo world including Florida giving a big “F U” to uteri with their new six-week abortion ban. We buzzsplain why your abortion data is NOT safe and what YOU can do to protect it. We unpack the good, the bad, and all the BS in between so you don’t have to!


    AND, we’ve got two other poppin’ guests! Duke Virginia, the amazing Georgia organizing coordinator of ARC Southeast, is here with the facts. They spill on all the special work ARC does, the Reproductive Freedom Act, and school us on what exactly is “Cop City” and how it’ll affect Georgia and the rest of the country. PLUS, comedian, host of the “TV, I Say” pod, and bisexual icon, Ashley Ray jumps in the mix to remind us that Black women are leading the way in writing moving TV and film portrayals of abortion. She’s talking about that, dating a flat-earther, and what shows we all need to binge.

    Trans Day of Visibility Mar 31, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    Hello Buzzkilltrix!


    This week, like every week, your Buzzkills play whack-a-mole with shitty anti-abortion laws and the garbage people who breathe them into existence!


    HIGHLIGHTS! Idaho is doing the most trying to provide the least as they are about to become the first state to criminalize “abortion trafficking,” which is the BS scary name they came up with for helping a minor who needs an abortion get an abortion, in or out of the state. The complexities are chilling and we break it all down.


    We’ll also fill you in on Mark Lee Dickson, a creepy 37-year-old anti-abortion virgin, who is traipsing across the country like some kind of fallopian troubadour, trying to convince every town in America to become a “Sanctuary City For The Unborn.”

    “A what now?” You ask.

    We give you the lowdown on that and the history of this one-man repro-demolitionist and drag him for absolute filth.


    Also, today’s podcast drops on International Trans Day Of Visibility! As dangerous anti-trans cruelty escalates, we wanted to talk with some incredible colleagues about bodily autonomy, intersectionality, and how we can all stand with and for trans folks in our activism and our lives. We sat down with Jack Knoxville From the Trans Empowerment Project, the first trans masc candidate to run for political office in the entire southern US.


    Plus, AAF BFF, from the groundbreaking series “Transparent,” we have actor, comedian, activist, and TRANDYMAN Ian Harvie! to talk comedy, trans exclusion in LGBTQIA spaces and the joy he gets from building everything from patios to catios!


    Plus Molly Gaebe is here to recap this week’s big steaming pile of news!

    Times are tough, but The Feminist Buzzkills keep you laughing and informed. We gotchu.

    The Weirdos Are Loud Mar 24, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    It’s officially spring, y’all, and we’re using this season of growth to sow those fertile seeds of abortion activism. Why do we need activism as self-care, you ask? BECAUSE OF WYOMING, IDAHO, UTAH, and all the other states that are obsessed with getting all up in our junk. How are the latest trash anti-abortion laws in these states leading to a hospital’s obstetric services being shut down and nationwide doctor shortages? Which of the dickwad Carolinas’ legislatures is inching closer to allowing the death penalty for abortion? And what happens if the Indian Child Welfare Act is overturned? Your PISSED OFF Feminist Buzzkills are here with everything you and your uterus need to know!


    Obviously, we brought in another iconic special guest lineup to get this Buzzkill party going! Badass filmmaker extraordinaire Tracy Droz Tragos is here talking about her stellar documentary “Plan C,” the inspiration behind it, and answers our question: is distributing a film about medication abortion just as hard as distributing the abortion pill itself? PLUS, the fabulous and hilarious comedian Shalewa Sharpe joins us! She chats it up with us about her podcast “The War Report,” drags Atlanta’s wack “Cop City,” and cracks us up with her stories from working at a porn shop.

    FRIENDS FROM WOMB TO TOMB Mar 17, 2023

    Wow, it has been a huge week for white dudes who think they’re the Property Brothers of your uterus, we’re talking about ALL OF THEM on this week’s “Feminist Buzzkills!” Have you heard about the ruling on the federal mifepristone case in Amarillo, Texas? NEITHER HAVE WE! The judge hasn’t ruled yet, but we do have new info. We’re breaking down the latest deets on what Judge Dingleberry (AKA Matthew Kacsmaryk) has been saying and not saying. On the list for getting dragged this podisode include, but are not limited to: a whinyass dude in Texas who’s currently suing everybody and their sister because he’s mad his ex-wife had an abortion, a Virginia judge who cited slavery laws to rule that frozen embryos are chattel property, and the anti-abobo clowns who bullied Walgreens into stopping medication abortion dispensing strike again. We’re unpacking all this plus SO MUCH MORE!


    Joining us in our rage-filled shenanigans are two badass guests. Doula extraordinaire and author Sabia Wade is in the house dropping her knowledge on full-spectrum doula work, her new book “Birthing Liberation,” and how compassion and inclusivity are the keys to liberation. PLUS, comedian, data scientist, and aerialist Dr. Andrea Jones-Rooy pops off about ALL the issues with peer reviews, abortion in data reporting, and dishes about their podcast “Majoring in Everything.”


    PS. We also have a new TikTok account: give @abortionfront a follow!

    Anatomy of an Anti-Abortion Bully Mar 10, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    It’s Abortion Provider Appreciation Day (YAY!) so the Feminist Buzzkills are celebrating by spoiling y’all with an extra abobo-packed podisode with not two, but THREE dope special guests! We’re spilling the latest BS tea you and your uterus need to know as per ushe, including a Buzzkill Breakdown on the anatomy of the anti-abortion bullies who spend their time bullying corporations like Walgreens to cave and do their anti-abobo bidding, oh and getting our TikTok account shut down! You’re going to learn how to identify these predators and fight back! Plus, it looks like Idaho, Texas, and Florida decided to get into a pissing contest on which state legislature gets to take the shitcake for being the absolute WORST this week – Spoiler: they’re tied so far.


    Here to make this pod even more FABULOUS are three cool-as-shit guests. Texas-based ICON, Dr. Ghazaleh Moayedi, OB/GYN and abortion provider with Pegasus Health Justice Center is here to chat about what influences the work they do, smacking down anti-abobo bullies, the intersection of menopause with abortion, and more! To break down the bullies in South Carolina, activist Melissa Moore sat down with Moji and Marie. They’re dropping all of their knowledge on how to include trans issues when advocating for healthcare and abortion, protest aftercare, the Black Liberation Fund, and more! And helping us exhale after this bully bonanza is the comedic hilariousness of Chase O’Donnell! She’s blabbing it up with us about her new comedy special “People Pleaser,” why she loves Zoom weddings, her quarter life crisis, and SO MUCH MORE!


    So, buckle up and celebrate Abortion Provider Appreciation Day by tuning in and sharing the “Feminist Buzzkills” pod, donating to local abortion funds, and checking out our Adopt-A-Clinic wishlists HERE!

    The Worst Little Courthouse in Texas Mar 03, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    CALLING ALL WOMB WARRIORS! This week, your Feminist Buzzkills are bringing y’all a very special podisode. Another court is out here trying to destroy abortion access - shocker! The court in question? Oh, just the absolute worst little courthouse in Amarillo, Texas. Surprise: They got Roe v. Wade overturned, and now the religious right and their handpicked judges are coming for your abortion pills. How is one walking human barfbag Texas judge responsible for the NATIONWIDE fate of the beloved abortion pill, mifepristone? WTF does this ruling mean for abortion access exactly? And what can YOU do about it all? As always, WE GOT YOU. Breathe, let out your best primal scream, and tune into our hour-long pod for ALL the answers.


    Earlier this week, as part of our Operation Save Abortion series, Abortion Access Front called in backup from the best in the abobo biz. Our stellar panel of experts unpacks all the ins and outs of this huge federal abortion case, dropping all their knowledge about the science of mifepristone (Spoiler alert: IT’S SAFER THAN TYLENOL!), answering all of your legal questions, and delivering marching orders on what YOU can do to fight back, REGARDLESS of what Judge Boy Wonder thinks about it.


    So, buckle up, fill your ears with the outraged soundwaves of the Feminist Buzzkills pod, and gear up to get your #OperationSaveAbortion on!

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    The Feminist Buzzkills are back with another episode of rage! This week in Abobolandia: Colorado, Texas, and Tennessee are in a pissing contest to see who can give the bigger F*CK YOU to uteruses. And TBH, Tennessee may or may not be taking home the dipshit award for that one. As always, we’re here to unpack and pop off about ALL the latest anti-abortion BS spewing out from the invasive misogynistic species obsessed with getting all up in your junk. Oh and subtle flex/side-note, our beloved Lizz who co-created The Daily Show will now be returning after nearly twenty years, but this time as a guest (with her favorite Galentine, Sarah Silverman, hosting). Make sure to catch Lizz in actionFebruary 13th at 11 PM ET on Comedy Central!


    Joining us in wading through the muck this week is… *drumroll please* Rev. Dr. Elise Saulsberry, director of programming at the Memphis-based Reproductive Justice organization, SisterReach. She’s here to deliver first hand knowledge about how the most recent Tennessee BULLSHIT is harming folks, the amazing resources and events their org offers, and how to talk about abortion and Reproductive Justice from a faith-based perspective.


    PLUS, the iconic comedian, author, podcaster and all-around polymath JEAN GRAE is here to gab about ALL the things she’s working on like her work-in-progress memoir, embracing all of the bullshit, how men are the root of all evil, and share exactly the kinds of affirmations that spark joy for a Feminist Buzzkill. What does that mean? Listen and find out!

    Fake Clinics Out Here Causing Cancer Feb 03, 2023

    It’s a heavy week as we bury another Black person murdered by law enforcement. Say it with us, “It’s not bad apples, it’s a system of oppression.” So this week, the Feminist Buzzkills are breaking down how justice is also NOT being served for violence committed against abortion providers and patients. From a 72-year-old clinic escort being assaulted by an anti-abortion, misogynistic henchman who was found NOT GUILTY (shocker!) to toxic trans vaginal probes and vending machines with morning-after pills, we’re spilling ALL THE ABOBO TEA.


    As always, we’re joined by fellow badasses who are tearing the patriarchy apart and protecting uteruses around the world on the daily! Diana Parker Kafka, executive director of Midwest Access Coalition (and Marie’s boss, shhh don’t tell her, this is her annual performance review!). Since the Dobbs decision has decimated abortion access, we will hear how one Midwest abortion fund has had to become a resource for abortion patients nationwide. Diana’s here to drop all these facts and chat about how they are navigating their work in this critical time.


    PLUS! Hi-larious comedian, Kenice Mobley, is supplying the laughs. Fresh from her appearance on “The Tonight Show,” she’s blabbing it up with us about her new comedy album “Follow Up Question,” how she really feels about the stank, steaming hot BULLSH*T that’s been going down in the world, cumming in jars, why we should all take up baking bread, and the life and death experience that changed her forever.


    The world is heavy. So, take a deep breath and fill your ear holes with the ONLY weekly podcast hosted and produced by activists who work in the abortion movement!

    Arkansas: Rivers, Lakes and Abortion Is Murder Jan 27, 2023

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    Arkansas, Texas, Florida - oh my! The conservative lawmakers and fetus fetishists in these states took PURE EVIL to another level these past couple of weeks and the Feminist Buzzkills are spilling the tea on all of it. PLUS, we even have some bright spots and wins for uteruses, YAY!


    Last week was the anniversary of Roe v. Wade (RIP), so what better way to remind folks what we lost than with some outrageous AAF shenanigans that answers the questions on everybody’s minds: “if you show up at your state legislature in an exam gown and start asking anti-abortion politicians for gynecological care, would they warm up the speculum?- Or would they be as careless and cruel as they are when they pass shitty laws?” AAF Programs Director Max Carwile and Community Engagement Coordinator Kristin Hady showed up at the statehouse in OH and TN looking for a pap smear and join us to tell us all about what went down.


    PLUS! The HILARIOUS comedian, Liz Miele is in the house to deliver a much needed serotonin boost! We’re blabbing about all things cats, therapy, and toxic positivity. This week’s show is jam-packed, so buckle up and get ready for “Feminist Buzzkills Live!,” the ONLY weekly hour-long podcast hosted and produced by activists who work in the abortion movement!

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    Calling all womb warriors - Get ready to fill your earholes with the raging voices of your favorites, the Feminist Buzzkills! Prince Harry’s new book has dropped, and if you haven’t started calling your younger siblings “Spare”what are you even doing with your life? You know what else dropped? Another weekly dose of abobo-related BULLSHIT - and some good shit! - that you, your uterus, and uterus-allies need to know.


    Last week on the pod, we hit you with some dope news: The FDA ruled that medication abortion can be dispensed at your local pharmacies AND the post office can deliver abortion pills by mail to every single state in these here UUUnited States of Amurica! It was a lot to unpack, so we’re bringing in Meg Sasse Stern, AKA the outreach coordinator over at Just The Pill, so we can learn exactly what all of it means for expanding abortion access and how YOU can spread the word about the beloved, life-saving magical beans that are abobo pills.


    PLUS! What’s it like to be a non-binary Muslim comedian working in the abortion world, you ask? Your Buzzkills have EXACTLY the person to answer that question- hilarious as f*ck comedian & Abortion Access Front head writer, Alyssa Al-Dookhi! They’re sharing their INCREDIBLE latest troll of trash politicians and making us all laugh our nips off.


    BTW - next week is the anti-abortion shit-gobbling weasels’ fetus-fetish-fest, AKA March For Life, so make sure you keep an eye on AAF’s socials to see how we’re clowning them.

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    NEW YEAR, NEW POD DROP, AND NEW BULLSHIT TO POP OFF ABOUT! Your favorite Feminist Buzzkills are back and while we are sadly disappointed that we have not been nominated for Speaker Of The House, we’re forging ahead with a stellar FIRST PODCAST OF 2023! We’re ringing in the new year with ALL the abobo tea you and your uterus need to know, like this week’s FDA announcement about pharmacies being able to dispense medication abortion with a prescription.

    AND WAIT, THERE’S MORE!

    The post office being able to deliver them ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTRY. Say whaaaat?! We’ll be diving into it all.


    Obvi, we had to kick off the new year with an epic special guest lineup. Drumroll please… Legendary activist, comedian, actor and overall fabulous person SANDRA BERNHARD is in the house! The queer icon and AAF bestie is Buzzkillin’ it up with us to blab about her epic radio show “Sandyland,” her feelings on the current garbage state of the world, and more! PLUS, meet law professors, Jill Lens & Greer Donley - the abobo sheroes destigmatizing pregnancy loss. They’re dropping facts on its criminalization, sharing their own experiences, squashing the BS myths on personhood, and talking about their findings from their Vanderbilt Law Review research paper.


    Thanks for joining the Feminist Buzzkills for another year of taking down the garbage womb raiders trying to seize your bodily autonomy! We love y’all!

    Best Interviews of 2022 Dec 16, 2022

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    Anyone else ready to get the f out of 2022?! The Feminist Buzzkills sure are! What better way to say goodbye and good riddance to this dumpster fire of a year than with a special recap episode highlighting three stellar interviews that went down this year. The Buzzkills are honored to pop off and rage every week with some iconic abobo warriors from all over the world who dedicate themselves on the daily to destroying the patriarchy and misogynistic dingleberries obsessed with getting all up in your junk. So let’s take a little stroll down FBK memory lane…


    Remember when we had THE Peaches, as in “The Teaches of,” in the house to celebrate abortion providers, the power of pussy, and gab about her current 20th anniversary tour? How about when Mike Bonanza dropped in to tell us all about Elevated Access, AKA the dope nonprofit made up of hundreds of volunteer pilots working with organizations to fly out folks who need abortion access and gender affirming care for FREE! Oh, and what about when reproductive rights SHEro and executive director of La Women’s Equality Center, Paula Ávila-Guillen, got real with us about the recent abobo wins and ongoing fight for abortion rights in Latin America, the work that she and La Women’s Equality Center do, and more!


    These were just three of the dozens of incredible interviews we delivered to your earholes in 2022. You can listen to all of our episodes to hear from so many experts and activists on the ground taking down the garbage womb raiders trying to seize your bodily autonomy. A huge thank you and shoutout to ALL of our FBK guests! We love y’all!


    2022 was heavy, but WE GOT YOU.

    You Don’t Need a Reason to Have an Abortion Dec 09, 2022

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    Another week fighting the post-Roe apocalypse, another hourlong pod with your beloved, fury-filled Feminist Buzzkills! The Buzzkills are Buzzkillin’ it up and serving this week’s latest steaming hot abobo tea for y’all and all the uteri out there. WHEW, What a week! Brittney Griner was freed and reunited with her wife, Herschel Walker was reunited with Texas, and the tech bros are uniting with the abobo world…? Yeah, we aren’t too sure how we feel about that one just yet.


    From poppin’ off about the tech bros to dragging the delirious anti-abortion woman on a mission to end r*pe exceptions, we’re covering it all, including news that the demand for vasectomies is in fact increasing post-Roe. No, we will not be snapping or clapping for these cis men taking responsibility for once, but we do love that news!


    As per usual, we’ve got another top tier lineup to bless your earholes, starting with Dr. Melissa Madera, AKA the “abortion diarist”! This versatile activist hero is dropping some major research knowledge and gabbing to us about telehealth, fighting abortion stigma, and her work with The Abortion Diary (spoiler alert: it’s the universe’s ONLY audio archive of abortion stories). PLUS! Blair Imani is in the house! The queer best-selling author, educator, and creator of the viral web series “Smarter in Seconds”dishes about how she empowers people through information, being on the board at Muslims for Progressive Values, what it’s like to be an educational influencer, her dope story of how she became co-owner of Fempower Beauty, and SO. MUCH. MORE.


    Times are heavy, but WE GOT YOU.

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    What happens when Lizz is out of town but the anti-abortion bullshit is still hitting the fan at full f*cking speed?! We call in Renee Bracey Sherman AKA “The Beyoncé of Abortion Storytelling” and founder/executive director of We Testify, for co-host backup, DUH! This week’s episode of “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” is quite the doozy, as we cover outbreaks of Christian supremacy in Indiana and Arizona, a newly reinstated abortion ban in Georgia and more. Don’t worry, we’ve got some bright spots to cover too! The Feminist Buzzkills and Renee take out the trash, drag this week’s top misogynistic fuck weasels, raise hell, and make sure you laugh your ass-hairs off along the way.


    We are spoiling y’all with another all-star special guest lineup this week with not two but THREE abortion warriors! Joining us all the way from Puerto Rico are abortion doula Camille Lauren and full spectrum midwife Maryann Colella from PR-based abortion collective, Las Mingas, which provides information, support, and accompaniment before, during, and after an abortion in Puerto Rico. We’re gabbing it up with them about the current state of abortion access on and near the island, Las Mingas’s multifaceted work to support bodily autonomy, and how YOU can help. PLUS! If that’s not enough of a treat, we’ve got Becca Rea-Tucker AKA The Sweet Feminist in the house! She’s Buzzkillin’ it up with us about her new book “Baking By Feel,” how she uses baking for abortion justice, our mutual love for butter and casseroles, and more!

    Kentucky, Your Votes Don’t Count Nov 18, 2022

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    Self care is: tuning in to “Feminist Buzzkills Live!”, your weekly dose of all things going down in these reproductive streets, where you also learn what YOU can do to combat anti-abortion extremism. The Feminist Buzzkills raise hell and awareness about the latest good, bad, and frankly weird shit that’s happened since you last heard our pissed off raging voices.


    This week, join us in dragging fuckwad anti-abortion doctors in Mississippi who are throwing a full-on tantrum in court trying to make their shitty abortion bans even SHITTIER.No joke. This is L I T E R A L L Y in Mississippi, the state that brought about Roe’s downfall in the first place. Oh and let’s just throw in a leaked tape from an anti-abortion meeting with Tennessee’s GOP lawmakers while we’re piling on the gross. Oh, and we’ve got all the updates you need about the pro-abortion ballot initiatives Americans voted for, and which attorneys general are already trying to ignore the will of the people! And ballot initiative updates while we’re at it.


    If that ain’t enough for ya, we’ve got a couple of guests that are about to rock your podworld. Have you heard about this huge abortion lawsuit in Kentucky? One of conservative Christian hardliners’ favorite kinks involves dangling religious freedom over others’ heads but keeping it all for themselves. Lisa Sobel is one of three Jewish women suing Kentucky's AG saying the state's abortion ban does just that. She and co-counsel Ben Potash are Buzzkillin’ it up with us on their amazing lawsuit.


    Times are heavy, but WE GOT YOU.

    Midterminate Nov 11, 2022

    MIDTERM MADNESS ALERT! Your Feminist Buzzkills are back with an hour-long, passion-filled, loud-ass rundown of the midterm elections. We’re unpacking everything you need to know about this clusterfuck election, from statewide to federal to ballot initiatives, and answering the question on all y’all’s minds:“What the F*CK does this all mean for abortion access?!”


    Spoiler alert: WE SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED! ABORTION WON IN MANY WAYS despite the media continually telling us it’s not a priority for folks.


    Blessing us with their presence are two game-changing abobo warriors and legends, who came by to celebrate the bright spots and also help us take out this week’s anti-abortion trash. Hilarious comedian, filmmaker, and writer Jena Friedman is in the house! You might recognize her from “Ladykiller,” her comedy special on Peacock, or as the creator of AMC+’s “Indefensible!” She’s buzzkilin’ it up with us about what she’s been up to, insane anti-abortion laws in places like Wisconsin, and why telling abortion jokes while pregnant became her new favorite hobby. PLUS, the sheroic Dr. Diane Horvath, co-founder and medical director of Partners in Abortion Care, a new ALL-TRIMESTER clinic in College Park, Maryland, is here! She is an OB/GYN with a Complex Family Planning subspecialty and has been a public advocate for abortion access throughout her career.


    Election times are heavy, but WE GOT YOU.

    Abortion Providers Put DC on Notice Nov 04, 2022

    Your “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” are doing something a bit different this week, because we’ve got a special episode for the ages! Lizz went down to Washington, DC, because a bunch of dope physicians called Obstetricians For Reproductive Justice came together November 3 in front of the Capitol for an event called #DoctorsForAbortionAccess. They were there to SPEAK OUT and deliver the message that abortion bans are hurting their patients and destroying their ability to provide good, quality care. They demanded politicians stop creating laws that incarcerate doctors, women, and people who can get pregnant, just because they need or provide abortions.


    In this week’s special podcast, you’ll get to hear the messages delivered by EVERY ONE of the speakers who shared their stories. We are the only info hub carrying this event so listen up. This week’s episode is a damn good one.


    Feminist Buzzkills Live: When BS is poppin’, we pop off, and so do some amazing doctors.

    Like, subscribe, write a review and GIVE US ALL THE STARS!

    Plus support our Patreon, because we want to be able to bring you all the dope events like this because the media is dropping the reproductive ball, and YOUR BUZZKILLS are picking it up, every damn week!

Lizz, Moji, and Marie are serving up all the terrifying, spine-chilling news updates from this week that you and your uterus need to know.

    It ain’t all bad though! We’ve got some treats to counter these tricks, like CLINIC OPENING ALERTS, calls to action, and some other good shit too! Plus, who are the Obstetricians for Reproductive Justice? And can Lizz actually link Justin Long to abortion? Stick around and find out!


    As always, the Feminist Buzzkills are joined by a dope special guest. This week it’s the one and only Pamela Merritt, the executive director of Medical Students for Choice, where she leads a dynamic team supporting future abortion providers and pro-choice physicians in over 29 countries. She’s schooling us on all things reproductive healthcare in this Post-Roe Hell. So, buckle up for another hour of POPPIN’ THE F*CK OFF!

    We're Going Down the Wombhole Oct 21, 2022

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    This week in Abobo-landia was a DOOZY. But no need to fear – the Feminist Buzzkills are here! Lizz, Moji, and Marie are back for another hour of poppin’ off. This week’s instigators of our rage include, but are not limited to, a couple of attorneys general being absolute misogynistic gremlins, Mississippi offering tax breaks for donations to anti-abortion fake clinics, and three pregnant folks having to cross state lines for abortion after being denied emergency care … And that’s not even all the courses in this dinner party from hell. At least we have a dessert course of comedy and some good news.


    And who are our guests at the table this week? Hold on because it’s a DAHLIA LITHWICK ALERT! The iconic legal genius, SLATE senior editor, host of the “Amicus” podcast and author is BACK on the pod, and this time she’s spilling the tea on her new book Lady Justice: Women, the Law, and the Battle to Save America (Penguin Press), why everyone should love Pauli Murray as much as she does, and so much more. PLUS, we have comedian/writer Ophira Eisenberg, whom you may recognize as the host of NPR’s “Ask Me Another,” and who’s here to blab about her NEW hilarious podcast “Parenting Is A Joke,” doing comedy post-quarantine, and other various and sundry things!


    Times are heavy, but we got you.

    When BS is poppin’, we pop off!

    Bishop Overlooktavos Childrape-Ticus Oct 14, 2022

    Full transcript HERE.


    Your FAVORITE weekly abobo podcast “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” is back to take out this week’s grimy misogynistic trash. While Marie is running around helping the process servers deliver Trump’s subpoena, Moji and Lizz are holding it down and bringing you all the news that’s fit to dissect, then toss in a tire fire.

    What news are we covering from these reproductive streets this week? How about the arrests of 11 ANTI-ABORTION EXTREMISTS charged with violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. Best part: AAF research and monitoring had a hand in making that happen.

    PLUS: Texas is TexASSing around, giving us more reasons to pop off, and we're also dragging Catholic hospitals for how they're silently taking over, pushing out secular hospitals and burdening us ALL with their abortion restrictions.

    Plus, wait for it… MORE GOOD NEWS! From Hawaii to Indiana and – even Arizona? – a whole bunch of states are giving us big ol’ serotonin boosts this week!

    This episode’s a doozy, so we called in some serious backup to break it all down with us. Joining us is Margot Channing, one of the super sleuth collective members at New York City for Abortion Rights, a feminist-socialist grassroots group that monitors the anti-abortion movement and leads direct actions for clinic defense. PLUS, serving up the laughs we all need, actor and comedy goddess Gina Brillon is here to gab it up about the sexist song she covered on AAF’s Do Re #MeToo special, being a woman in comedy, the importance of community, and her new podcast “The State of: Women” dropping next month.

    Times are heavy, but we got you.

    OPERATION SAVE ABORTION: In case you missed out on the training day we’ve been blabbing about nonstop, you can still join the 10,000+ womb warriors fighting the patriarchy by listening to our five-part OpSave pod series clicking HERE for your toolkit, marching orders, and more.

    POV: It's International Podcast Day and you're trying to find out WTF happened this week in Abortlandia. Lucky for you, the only weekly abortion podcast in existence is here to bring y’all the news, the rage, and the laughs you need. While Lizz is running around being professionally hilarious, Marie and Moji are breaking down the latest in uterus-hating garbage that’s been spewing forth from the anti-abortionist, unrisen white bread loaves who think they run this world. Your Feminist Buzzkills are gabbing it up about International Safe Abortion Day, what’s going down in the reproductive streets of Puerto Rico and Latin America, Arizona abortion bans, and why we can’t stop laughing at Texas AG Ken Paxton. Plus, which states and countries are bringing us some bright spots this week? Hit that play button and find out!

    As always, we’ve got a top shelf special guest lineup joining us in popping off about any and all things abobo! We are beyond honored this week to welcome Latina abortion hero and executive director of The Women’s Equality Center, Paula Ávila-Guillen. She’s getting real with us about the ongoing fight for abortion rights in Latin America, the work she and The Women’s Equality Center do, the heartwrenching effects of El Salvador’s total abortion ban, and what folks in the US can do about it. PLUS, here to charge up our serotonin levels is hilarious musician and actor Jen Kwok! Listen to us blab about how she makes music about issues that matter to her (like ABORTION), what music genre she’s about to take over next, and how hyped she is to cover a trash misogynistic song next week at AAF’s Do Re #MeToo (Tickets linked below) alongside her idol, Margaret Cho!

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    The Buzzkills are back together and ready to rage! Prepare your ear holes for another episode listening to the angelic voices of Lizz, Moji and Marie as they pop off about the latest patriarchal fuckery that’s been going down this week. Which states are the anti-abortion terrorists focusing their uterus-hating devilry on this week? “What’s the latest in these sun-dried turds tired-ass plots” You ask? How about putting folks who receive abortions in prison? But it’s not all dank. We have good news from the unlikely dark underbellies of Indiana and Ohio. Plus, as always, the Feminist Buzzkills are primal screaming, laughing and dragging anti-abortionist shitgobblers for filth as they break all this abobo-related BS down for y’all.

    We’ve got a top-shelf special guest lineup joining us in raising hell and abobo awareness this week! Feminist warrior and musical legend, NEKO CASE, is in the house and Moji, Marie and Neko get vulnerable and extra real about abortion, gender fluidity, her music, and the post-Roe hellscape. PLUS, a couple of emergency contraception all-stars from the American Society for Emergency Contraception (ASEC) are Buzzkillin’ it up with us, too. Kelly Cleland, executive director of ASEC, is here to school us on everything emergency contraception, including IUDs - yup, IUDs! Nikita Kakkad, ASEC student advisory committee member, gabs it up with us about emergency contraception at UT Austin, how she inspires fellow students in Texas, and ASEC’s latest project, EC4EveryCampus.

    The perfect abortion news podcast doesn’t exi- oh wait, yes she does! While Lizz is out being professionally hilarious and making the people of Duluth laugh their asses off, Marie and Moji are holding it down and delivering y’all the latest in this week’s abobo-related BS, sprinkled with some good shit! What the fuck is up with the latest state abortion bans that have gone into effect this week? Which wack, misogynistic, trashy anti-abortion goblins are on the top of our shitlist? And why do uteri love New York? As always, the Feminist Buzzkills have all the answers and more on what’s been going down in these reproductive streets.


    This week, we’re bringing you two kick ass womb warriors who we got the pleasure of gabbing it up with! Calla Hales, the executive director of A Preferred Women’s Health Center in Raleigh, North Carolina, hopped in the mix to give us a glimpse into the terrifying, delusional extremists protesting outside their doors, what keeps her hopeful in these garbage times, and to remind us of how amazing, strong and dope clinic staff are. PLUS, queer icon, musician, writer and performance artist Bitch is in the house! Listen to us gush over their new album and blab about getting back into touring, where they were when they heard Roe was murdered, and more!

    Your favorite Feminist Buzzkills are BACK and PISSED OFF. Nothing says, “Welcome back from your much needed vacay!” like a whole stinking pile of steaming hot misogynistic BS that’s been gushing out of South Carolina and Rhode Island all week. What other states decided to sprinkle more patriarchal nonsense on the anti-abortion shit sundae this week? Which states are making historic legislative wins for abobo protection? As always, the Buzzkills have all the answers and more on what’s been going down in these reproductive streets.


    This episode’s partners-in-raising-hell are Ashley Underwood and Judy Gold! Ashley Underwood, director of Equity Forward, is schooling us on the fake-ass abortion clinics (AKA anti-abortion centers) plaguing the country, exposing what these frauds are doing with your taxdollars, and dropping the knowledge on what YOU can do about it. PLUS, comedy goddess, Judy Gold, is not only only making us laugh are nips off but she’s raging with us on what “equality” looks like, the abundance of misogyny in the comedy world, and more! The world is heavy, but we got you.

    OpSave Episode 1: Start Here - Let's Talk About Abortion and Reproductive Justice Aug 26, 2022

    Welcome to Episode One of Operation Save Abortion! Thank you for committing to listening to this pod series and for making a commitment to learn more, act more, fund more, and raise hell more in this fight for abortion and bodily autonomy. This is NOT a pod series you listen to while cleaning out your closet. It’s about listening with friends and utilizing the activity and discussion guide designed for each episode to deepen your knowledge. The goal is helping you discover which part of abortion activism is right for you, so you can help build and grow community.

    In crafting this project, we were supported by over 60 partner organizations, and each of the five episodes features amazing experts from the reproductive health, rights, and justice movements who show us what is possible if we learn about the opportunities available and are given a road map to show up and show out.

    Episode 1: "Let's Talk About Abortion and Reproductive Justice." was intentionally chosen as the premiere episode. It is pretty much your “Reproductive Justice 101” crash course. Abortion activism is just one part of this intersectional movement, so this first episode is designed to help ground your experience throughout this series and overall abortion advocacy in a Reproductive Justice Framework, making sure to center those most effected by these harmful laws, and by following Black, Brown and Indigenous leadership as we fight for bodily autonomy.

    LET’S WORK!

    OpSave Episode 2: Clinic Advocacy - "Indie"cent Exposure: Ways to Support Independent Clinics Aug 26, 2022

    Welcome to Episode Two of Operation Save Abortion! Thanks for committing to this pod series and for making a commitment to learn more, act more, fund more, and raise hell more in this fight for abortion and bodily autonomy. This is NOT a pod series you listen to while cleaning out your closet. It’s about listening with friends and utilizing the activity and discussion guide designed for each episode to deepen your knowledge. The goal is helping you discover which part of abortion activism is right for you, so you can help build and grow community.

    Each of the five episodes features amazing experts from the reproductive health, rights, and justice movements.

    If you haven’t listened to Episode 1 already, please do so first! It’s your “Reproductive Justice 101” crash course. Abortion activism is just one part of this intersectional movement, so this first episode is designed to help ground your experience throughout this series and overall abortion advocacy in a Reproductive Justice Framework, making sure to center those most most effected by these harmful laws, and by following Black, Brown and Indigenous leadership as we fight for bodily autonomy.

    Episode 2 is all about clinic advocacy. These providers are doing the work day in and day out to keep abortion access going. Without our love and appreciation, they’ll burn out. What does support look like? From financially supporting them with donations to buying items off of their Amazon Wishlists to escorting patients, helping with clinic repairs, to showing love with a thank you postcard, support can look a variety of ways and is key to keeping these clinics alive! So, throughout this episode, our amazing panelists are going to help you learn about independent providers, AKA the clinics doing most of the work that you may never have heard of. Show them some love below by filling out our vetting form so you can work with them in the future, checking the activist calendar, and buying them some goodies via our Adopt-A-Clinic program.

    OpSave Episode 3: Patient Advocacy - Put Your Money, Time, and Privilege Where Your Mouth Is: How to Help Patients Access Care Aug 26, 2022

    Welcome to Episode Three of Operation Save Abortion! Thanks for committing to this pod series and for making a commitment to learn more, act more, fund more, and raise hell more in this fight for abortion and bodily autonomy. This is NOT a pod series you listen to while cleaning out your closet. It’s about listening with friends and utilizing the activity and discussion guide designed for each episode to deepen your knowledge. The goal is helping you discover which part of abortion activism is right for you, so you can help build and grow community.

    Each of the five episodes features amazing experts from the reproductive health, rights, and justice movements.

    Before you get into episode three, listen to Episode 1. It’s pretty much your “Reproductive Justice 101” crash course. Abortion activism is just one part of this intersectional movement, so this first episode is designed to help ground your experience throughout this series and overall abortion advocacy in a Reproductive Justice framework, making sure to center those most most effected by these harmful laws, and by following Black, Brown and Indigenous leadership as we fight for bodily autonomy.

    Episode Three is all about patient advocacy. A lot of folks have expressed great interest in this topic and have been asking for some time now about how you can help people seeking abortion. We’d like to start off by saying that there are a lot of complexities in this area, so we put together an all-star panel made up of experts who do this all day, everyday. They will be breaking down what patient advocacy is, giving you the realities of what is needed, help guide you on how you can support the organizations who specialize in patient support, and explain why some people’s very generous and well meaning offers of a couch or “camping” can make people feel vulnerable and in turn add to the stigma around abortion care. It’s intense, but you’re doing great, so take a breath and take this at your own pace.

    OpSave Episode 4: Legislative Advocacy - Abortion Bans Are F**King Trash: Learn to Say This to an Elected Official Without Saying “F**King” or “Trash” Aug 26, 2022

    Welcome to Episode Four of Operation Save Abortion! Thanks for committing to listening to this pod series and for making a commitment to learn more, act more, fund more, and raise hell more in this fight for abortion and bodily autonomy. This is NOT a pod series you listen to while cleaning out your closet. It’s about listening with friends and utilizing the activity and discussion guide designed for each episode to deepen your knowledge. The goal is helping you discover which part of abortion activism is right for you, so you can help build and grow community.

    Each of the five episodes features amazing experts from the reproductive health, rights, and justice movements who share the opportunities available for us to show up and show out.

    Before you get into episode Four, listen to Episode 1 if you haven’t already. It is pretty much your “Reproductive Justice 101” crash course. Abortion activism is just one part of this intersectional movement, so this first episode is designed to help ground your experience throughout this series and overall abortion advocacy in a Reproductive Justice Framework, making sure to center those most most affected by these harmful laws, and by following Black, Brown and Indigenous leadership as we fight for bodily autonomy.

    We know all that rage in you is just yelling, “abortion bans are f**king trash!” So, we put together Episode 4 as a guide on how to turn this rage into much needed legislative advocacy. This next episode covers the challenges we are facing legislatively and what you can do about it! Our panel is going to introduce you to ways you can help get these old ass abortion laws off the books, help folks who face criminalization for pregnancy outcomes, and how to actually say some game-changing shit to those in legislature. You’re going to leave this episode learning how to organize against these bans and you’re going to hear about the wins folks have accomplished and the steps they took to get them!

    Episode fiive covers our favorite things about abortion activism, DIRECT ACTION! There’s no movement without folks who take to the streets, the statehouses, and anywhere we can raise awareness and raise hell. Throughout this episode, folks who brilliantly use art, comedy, rage, and creative actions tell you ways to expose or confront oppressors, and to educate and reframe the abortion narrative. So, take notes and use these dope activists as inspiration on how you can fight for abortion and bodily autonomy in these reproductive streets.

    Tantric Yoga Mermaid: Live From Netroots Nation Aug 19, 2022

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” is broadcasting LIVE! from Netroots Nation in Pittsburgh this week, with a whole entire live audience, too! Rage and laugh with us as we raise hell and awareness on all the latest updates in the abortion world that you and your uterus need to know. Your Feminist Buzzkills are delivering the bad, the badder, and the not-so-bad news that’s been dropping in these reproductive streets. Michigan is still acting up and making headlines for the wrong reasons, while Florida is serving us a tiny sliver of a bright spot. We’re exposing Kansas’s number one sore loser, who’s got his forced-birther head stuck so far up his ass he’s willing to put his house and retirement savings on the line to fund a lost cause recount of Kansas’s recent win for abortion at the ballot box. Plus, some frauds are trying to exploit and charge pregnant folks for janky $1,500 abortions on a wack “climate-controlled” boat. Refrigerator and microwave included.

    Joining us in our shenanigans this week is Aurea Bolaños Perea, the strategic communications director at COLOR Latina (Colorado Organization for Latina Opportunity and Reproductive Rights). Class is in session! Aurea’s schooling us on ballot initiatives, COLOR’s dope wins, the importance of language in the reproductive rights movement, and she’s busting myths and dropping stats on the Latinx pro-abortion community. So, listen to us doing our favorite things: running our mouths about reproductive justice and dragging anti-abortion shitbrain goblin dickpuffins for filth! The world is heavy right now, but we got you.

PLUS, keep an eye out for our five-part OpSave pod series dropping August 26!

    Fetuses in Space and Kitties in Catios Aug 12, 2022

    Full episode transcript HERE.

    Another Friday, another new drop of Abortion Access Front’s “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” pod. As always, we are bringing y’all a knockout lineup of guests to hop in our Buzzkill shenanigans. Karishma Oza, director of patient services at the DuPont Clinic in Washington DC, AKA one of the few clinics in the country that provides all-trimester abortion care, chats with us about second- and third- trimester abortion myths and breaks down all the ways you can show someone getting an abortion emotional support.

    PLUS, legendary actor, comedian, and cat/dog/plant momma Margaret Cho stops by! Listen to us blab about what her queer ass is up to, why we wish we could be her cats and how everything that’s good is gay. Period.

    And of course we’re running our mouths about the abobo news! From fetuses being accused of floating around in uteri like they’re on a fucking magic carpet, to the best and worst states to have and raise a baby, and some bright spots for you this week too! Pro-abortion wins are being sprinkled all over, from Wyoming to Texas to Montana, California, and Vermont! It’s a heavy show today, but it’s all necessary to break through the abortion stigmas that hang around like farts from your ex.

    Full episode transcript HERE.


    IT’S ABORTION ACCESS FRONT’S AND LIZZ’S BIRTHDAY! The Feminist Buzzkills are here to celebrate by poppin’ off about this week’s latest anti-abortion BS that spews from the invasive misogynist species who refuse to get out of everybody’s junk. Don’t worry, though! The abortion gods must’ve heard it was Lizz’s birthday, because they made it rain some not-so-shitty news this week too. From clerics suing over Florida’s fucked up abortion law, to President Biden FINALLY saying “abortion,” to a Michigan judge extending their order barring enforcement of the state’s dusty old 1931 anti-abortion law, we are serving up some major seratonin boosts for you and your uteri. Expect a deep dive into Kansas’s latest abortion win and what we actually think about it. Also, who wants to talk about the new fake clinic, bar and grill, miniature golf course and shame spa going up in Corpus Christi, Texas? We do!

    PLUS, joining us this week is the ICONIC Judith Arcana, AKA one of the original, legendary Chicago Janes, who bravely helped women get safe abortions before Roe! She’s blessing all of us with her stories of what it was like to form the Janes, the obstacles and danger they faced, how they shaped the blueprint that abortion activists use today. And she’s our questions about the incredible HBO documentary The Janes! Do yourself a favor and stream it. You’re welcome.

    P.S. Don’t forget to show Lizz and AAF some birthday love by donating HERE!

    Have You Tried Turning Your Manhood Off and On? Jul 29, 2022

    Full episode transcript HERE


    This week marked a WHOLE MONTH since Roe was murdered by the patriarchal cult of brainless, conservative, little dick energy nutbags, AKA SCOTUS. And guess what? Thousands of uterus protectors are still getting shit done on the ground, on the internet, even at home with their Operation Save Abortion toolkits! Here to get it done in the pod world, are your Feminist Buzzkills with another new episode of Abortion Access Front’s “Feminst Buzzkills Live!” podcast. Marie is out being the SuperShero that she is, but Lizz and Moji are holding it down and bringing y’all ALL the tea on this week’s latest anti-abortion BS from the invasive misogynistic species obsessed with getting all up in your junk.

    Joining us straight from the ground at Operation Save America’s (OSA) National “Foundations of Anti-Abortion Shit-Flinging Fuckers” Event in Nashville, are two groundbreaking, iconic, abortion warriors and the co-founders of We Engage, Kim Gibson and Derenda Hancock! These two incredible activists were also leaders of the Pink House Defenders, the clinic escort group that helped patients and providers and the Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the Mississippi clinic that was the plaintiff in the infamous Dobbs Case that overturned Roe V Wade in June. They took a break from disrupting OSA’s attempt of “restoring their manhood” to gab it up with us about their kick ass organized action called Jezebel Rebellion against Christian Extremists, the insane anti-abortion BS they’re seeing in Nashville this weekend, and MORE!

    PLUS! Abortion Access Front’s very own hypocrite hunter and bad guy security analyst, Kat Green, is hopping in the mix to expose and talk lots of pipping hot crap about the lame ass anti-abortionists who can’t seem to just leave folks with wombs alone.

    Operation Save Abortion Jul 15, 2022

    Abortion Access Front’s Operation Save Abortion weekend has arrived! What better way to pregame than with a whole new “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” pod drop. Moj and Marie are out getting their summer wedding fix, but don’t worry, Lizz won’t be blabbing solo this week. We called in some serious Roe-or-Die reinforcement to deliver the scoop on all the latest anti-abortion BS from the invasive misogynistic species trying to get all up in your junk. Assisting in our weekly ritual of popping off are FOUR legendary, game changing, ass-kicking, pro-abortion renegades. Drumroll please…


    Kicking us off to talk the latest repro news is the author of Handbook for a Post-Roe America and operations director of the West Alabama Women’s Center, Robin Marty! She’s also poppin’ off about the (lack of) accessible healthcare options in Alabama, and rave about ELLA, the “souped-up emergency contraception” YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT.


    PLUS! Think Beyoncé is the best thing the South gave us? Think again. Powerhouse interim executive director of ARC Southeast, Jalessah Jackson, and new executive director of the National Network of Abortion Funds, Oriaku Njoku, are dropping knowledge on us about abortion care in the South and why using a Reproductive Justice framework for your abortion activism is the way you build sustaining power.


    AND! If that ain’t enough for you, we’ve got comedian, leader of the band Tigers and Monkeys, and co-host of the We Don’t Even Know podcast, Shonali Bhowmik in the house! She’s getting real with us about grief, finding the joy in the chaos, and more!

    The world is heavy, but we got you!


    FINAL ROLL CALL: Operation Save Abortion weekend has arrived! Registration closes tonight, Friday 7/15, at 11:59 PM ET. It’s not a march, it’s your training day. Can’t make it? Have no fear! AAF will be posting ALL the toolkits and sessions online so you can get your activism on, anytime, anywhere.

    FRIDAYS AT 6PM ET - When BS is poppin’, we pop off!

    Patriarchal Turducken Jul 08, 2022

    We’re two weeks into the Roepocalypse and surprise, surprise, the conservative sun-dried turds against abortion are STILL burning down America AND still being evil as balls trying to hijack our uteri. How many total abortion bans went into effect this week? What’s happening to abortion clinics and funds? Who the fuck is trying to force 10 year old rape victims to be moms? And is there ANY good news surfacing amongst this chaotic shitshow? (Spoiler alert: there’s some bright spots!) Your favorite Buzzkills from Abortion Access Front’s “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” podcast are here to pour y’all some piping hot bodily autonomy tea and deliver ALL the answers and updates on this week’s latest anti-abortion BS from the invasive misogynistic species trying to get all up in your junk.

    Helping us bulldoze through this week’s bullshit are two special, iconic, womb warrior guests! First, we’ve got THE Beyoncé of Abortion Storytelling and founder and executive director of We Testify, Renee Bracey Sherman, here to blab with us about two of our favorite things: abortion and shitting on the Dems and Biden! She’s dropping her knowledge on who the actual leaders of the abortion rights movement are (hint, it’s people who have had abortions), the power of storytelling, how language around abortion needs to change (“camping,” we’re looking at you), and the dope origins of We Testify and what they’re doing for folks who have abortions.

    PLUS! The hilarious, whacktose intolerant comedian and co-host of Betches Sup Podcast, Milly Tamarez, is in the house! How has she been coping with all the shit that stays spewing out of America’s misogynistic henchmen’s mouths? By trolling and bullying these lame clowns, DUH! Listen to us talk shit about Eric Adams and chat up about our most recent hobbies, period-piece binges, urban planning, and more!

    ROLL CALL: T-minus NINE days until Operation Save Abortion, don’t forget to sign up. It’s not a march, it’s your training day.

    ‘Cause you know us, when BS is poppin’, we pop off!

    The Abortion Mile High Club Jul 01, 2022

    We are one week into the Roepocalypse and even more pissed. A whole lot of bullshit has been spewing out from almost half of the states this week and your Buzzkills are breaking it all down for you. How many clinics are closed? Which state bans are being challenged and reopened? Who is actually showing up as an ally? We cover all of it in this episode, plus we even have some unexpected bright spots for you!


    Here to help us get through the BS are two Roe-rriors who are kicking these patriarchal dickpuffins’ asses on the daily! First, we’ve got Mike Bonanza, the executive director of Elevated Access, AKA the dope nonprofit made up of hundreds of volunteer pilots working with organizations like Midwest Access Coalition to fly out folks who need abortion access for FREE! Is this real life? YUP, and Mike is here to explain it all to us.


    PLUS! Hilarious, amazing, talented, abortion evangelist Busy Philipps is in the house with part two of our interview! She dropped in to talk all things abortion, how the entertainment industry needs to step their shit up for abortion representation, and so much more. She got so real with us, we broke her interview up into TWO PARTS, baby! Catch part one in last week’s episode.


    The world is heavy right now, in between all the raging and fighting against the patriarchy, so show yourself some extra love. You are not alone. We got you!


    ROLL CALL: Don’t forget to sign up for Operation Save Abortion. It’s not a march, it’s your training day. Follow @AbortionFront on all socials: we’ll keep you one step ahead of the garbage womb raiders trying to seize your bodily autonomy.


    NYC ACTIVISM ALERT: NYC for Abortion Rights is leading a counterprotest tomorrow (7/2) at 8 a.m. at the Basilica of Old St. Patrick’s (Mott & Prince). More details HERE!

    SCOTUS IS TRASH: We Have Thoughts and Actions Jun 24, 2022

    WELCOME TO THE WORST FUCKING DAY IN OUR LIVES. The Roe-pocalypse has arrived. SCOTUS is trash. This morning, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and decimated the right to abortion in the United States. Take a deep breath and hold on tight, because “Feminist Buzzkills Live!,” the official podcast of Abortion Access Front, is here to rage and gear you up for the post-Roe world. We’ve got resources for you, calls to action, community, hope, and, as always, comedy to spike those serotonin levels. Plus, we’re bringing you ALL the OTHER latest anti-abortion BS of the week, as if the death of Roe wasn’t enough. This episode is a space to primal scream, cry, plot, unite, and laugh your ass off. The floor has fallen out — that was Roe —but the Feminist Buzzkills have plans, and you’re a part of them.


    Here to help us get through the BS are two womb warriors who have been putting in the work for as long as we’ve known them. First off, we have one of our favorite legal minds, abortion genius and OG AAF podcast host Ashley Gray, senior advisor of state policy advocacy and strategic partnerships at the Center for Reproductive Rights! She’s joining us to fume over Roe’s murder, explain what this post-Roe dystopia will look like in a year, and lay out what we can all do about it.


    PLUS! Hilarious amazing abortion evangelist Busy Philipps is in the house and bringing some much needed pro-abortion joy! She dropped in to talk all things abortion, what she’s been up to, raising kids in this hellscape we’re all living in, and so much more. She got so real with us, we broke her interview up into TWO PARTS, baby! Catch part two on our next episode.


    The world is heavy right now, in between all the raging and fighting against the patriarchy, so show yourself some extra love. You are not alone. We got you!

    Richard Spencer Is on Bumble Jun 17, 2022

    Two out of the three Feminist Buzzkills are back this week! While Marie is off being an abortion access supershero and working her ass off for the wombs, Lizz & Moji are holding it down at the rage cave and have a whole platter of BS to pop off about with y’all! “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” the Abortion Access Front Podcast is here to bring you all the information on the latest anti-abortion BS and the invasive misogynistic species trying to get all up in your junk. From white nationalist Richard Spencer catfishing as a “moderate” on Bumble (LOL) to Ted Cruz’s crusty, dildo-hating, punchable face making a special appearance at the latest conference held by PAAU (Progressive Anti-Abortin Uprising, AKA the fetus thieves) where he tries to convince everyone he gives a fuck about anyone… he doesn’t FYI to the 23 states with conservative, shit-flinging, misogynists as governors who aren’t just forced birth fetishists, but forced poverty fetishists too. The Buzzkills are here to expose, drag, and read them all for the hot, reeking filth that they are.


    PLUS! This week we’ve got our beloved special guest, the one and only hilarious, badass, AFF stan, Dina Nina! She’s here to get real with us about the toxic masculinity that plagues comedy (and just about everything), to remind us that this is a hot find your joy summer, and share deets on her new drug of choice!

    SPECIAL EPISODE: BRO v. WADE Jun 03, 2022

    Abortion Access Front finally gave an answer to the question asked by so many men: “How can us dudes support abortion rights?” The answer: RAISE MONEY FOR US, dammit! So, we did exactly that! On May 22nd, at The Bell House in Brooklyn, we threw BRO V. WADE: FUNNY DUDES. RAISING CASH. FOR ABORTION. It was an evening of guys being hilarious and supporting Abortion Access Front, just as God intended. Our very own Feminist Buzzkill, Lizz Winstead, hung out backstage and interviewed six of stand up comedy’s funniest guys and asked them all the things about the current shitstorm clusterfuck dystopia the wombs of America are plotting to obliterate. This is a Feminist Buzzkills Live! special episode you don’t want to miss!

    Who are these six fabu, hilarious, abortion-loving bros in arms gabbing it up for the next hour and twenty minutes? This special pod drop features David Cross (I’m From The Future, “Arrested Development”), Dave Hill (The Pride Of Cleveland), Dean Obeidallah (SiriusXM), Jon Glaser (“Parks And Recreation”), John Fugelsang (SiriusXM), and Josh Gondelman (head writer, “Desus & Mero”). The world is heavy as f*ck right now folks, but these laugh your ass off dudes are sprinkling some support and comedy on it all - and Lizz is here to keep them all in line!

    I Regret My Abortion Ban May 27, 2022

    Say it with us - FUCKLAHOMA! Who else’s jaw is still on the ground from all the BS spewed out at uteri this week? The Abortion Access Front Podcast is here to rage & bring you all the information on the latest anti-abortion BS and the invasive misogynistic species trying to get all up in your junk. From Oklahoma’s total abortion ban to the treatment (or shall we say, the aggressive LACK of) of miscarriages in Alabama, the Feminist Buzzkills are spilling all the abortion related tea with the help of three special guest Roe-rriors.

    This week, we’ve got Dr. Leah Torres, the director of patient care and programs of West Alabama Women’s Center and author of this frightening article on how doctors are turning miscarriage patients away for fear of persecution. She’s here to answer all our questions on the fucked up lack of treatment for Alabama patients experiencing a miscarriage. Aimee Arrambide, the executive director of Avow Texas is in the house dropping all the knowledge on the scary amount of influence city councils have over abortion access, good and bad. Plus, she fills us in on what it was like to talk about abortion access for six hours in front of Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz (it ain’t fun) and how Avow is making the post-Roe world a little less scary for folks with uteri.

    It’s heavy, friends, but the wickedly hilarious Helen Hong came by to recharge our serotonin levels after this shitstorm of a week. Helenspent the pandemic stealing her dog’s xanax, dating doomsday preppers, getting trapped into becoming her sister's baby daddy, and recording a comedy special that drops May 31st (linked below). She’s getting extra real with us about her own abortion story, all the things going down in her life, and her plan for world domination! Buckle up, this convo is gonna go wherever it wants to go!

    WHAT. A. WEEK!!! We are still drunk from the Madison Cawthorn goodbye party and barely have any vocal chords left from primal screaming with our AAF squad out in these NYC reproductive streets last weekend! “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” The Abortion Access Front Podcast is here to rage & bring you ALL the information on the latest anti-abortion BS and the invasive misogynistic species trying to get all up in your junk. This week, we’ve got y’all with a DOUBLE DROP! This episode is delivering all the good and bad news that spewed out this week along with two very special badass Roe-rriors. In addition to this hour of our pissed off fuming angelic voices, we’ve got an extra minisode dedicated to our very loud feelings and opinions about the sheer batshittery that was a six hour hearing before the U.S. House Judiciary (or shall we say, douche-iciary) on the leak, abortion access, and post-roe America.

    Joining us is Poonam Dreyfus-Pai, Deputy Director of All-Options, an organization that provides judgment-free support for pregnant and parenting people who need resources for abortion, adoption, or the children they already have. Poonam assists us in popping off about the shameful AF baby formula shortage, fills us in on the magical safe space that is All-Options, how they are making the world a little less scary for folx with wombs, and how YOU can get involved!

    PLUS! Here to sprinkle some comedy on this anti-abortion shit cake is the hilarious AAF stan, Aparna Nancherla, from the Amazon hit shows “Yearly Departed” and “Search Party'.” She’s hopping in to bless us with laughs, talk about what she’s been up to, and to rage out about all the garbage going on in the world!

    SURPRISE MINI-SODE ALERT! F**k a moment’s rest Amirite? Feminist Buzzkills were gonna take a break this week, but pffft. With all this anti-abortion shit hitting the fan, we whipped up a special pod drop to rage with y’all. There is so much to unpack and mere mortals cannot do it alone so we invited Roe-iier and reproductive legal big brain Stephanie Toti to pop off with us. Stephanie is the senior counsel & project director over at The Lawyering Project- AND BTW She argued AND WON the 2016 landmark Supreme Court abortion case, Whole Woman’s Health v Hellerstedt. She & her team of badass attorneys continue fighting other unconstitutional state laws around the country, including this latest Texas trash bounty hunter six week law. She offers all the guidance we need right now as we try to unpack the legality of the current shitstorm we are all being dragged through.

This is our longest, spiciest, most pissed off pop off yet! As always, we’re bringing you ALL the information on the latest anti-abortion BS and the invasive misogynistic species trying to get all up in your junk. This week brought us the worst uteri news in the last 59 years – SCOTUS leaked their draft to overturn Roe, Oklahoma & Louisiana are acting TF up, minors are basically forced into a twisted version of Wipeout: Abortion Access For Teens Edition, uteri are being assaulted & robbed more than ever & shit all over the country is scary, but WE GOT Y’ALL! This episode is a space to rage, primal scream, cry, plot, unite, and even laugh your ass off. It’s okay for Roe to be the floor, the Feminist Buzzkills have plans.

    Here to help us get through the BS are the best in the bizz. Our favorite legal minds and abortion geniuses, Imani Gandy & Jessica Mason Pieklo of Rewire’s Boom! Lawyered Podcast, are here to fume over the SCOTUS draft leak with us, guide us through what comes next, and lay out what YOU need to do about it. Plus Rosann Mariappuram of Jane’s Due Process joins us to break down the repulsive lack of abortion access for teens, what a judicial bypass is, & how we can help make this anti-abortion world less scary for pregnant minors.

    If that ain’t enough for y’all, we’ve got the hilarious comedian who you may recognize from their latest film on Hulu, Crush, Jes Tom! They’re hopping in the mix to get real with us & help lighten the mood by cracking us up through this shitstorm of a week. They’ll also chat with us about their solo show “Less Lonely” at the Bell House in Brooklyn on May 14th, ticket link below!

    Let’s Start Calling It ‘LAHOMA, ‘Cause They Are Not “OK” Apr 29, 2022

    “Feminist Buzzkills Live!”, the Abortion Access Front podcast, is here to deliver! As always, we’re bringing you ALL the information on the latest anti-abortion BS and the invasive misogynistic species trying to get all up in your junk. This week, NOklahoma tried to drown Texas in their never ending pissing contest, and passed a six-week abortion ban that reeks of nonsense and unconstitutional BS. Texas & other anti-abortion states are still being ghoulish, restricting abortion healthcare from medical professionals’ training and education. Soon they wont even know what a vagina looks like.

    PLUS, three’s a party! The Buzzkills welcome Cece Caruso and Imani Wilson-Shabazz of Plan C Pills to lay out how exactly Plan C helps guide folks to abortion pill resources, and how you should spread the word about abobo pills. Use this as your friendly reminder to stock up ASAP.

    If that ain’t enough for y’all, we’ve also got hilarious comedy queen and AAF board member Joyelle Nicole Johnson! She’s here to assist us in popping off and is dishing the deets on her comedy special on Peacock, Love Joy, AND her album Yell Joy. What can’t this woman do?

    Follow @AbortionFront on all socials – we’ll keep you one step ahead of the garbage womb raiders trying to seize your bodily autonomy.

    Four Day Work Week You Ungrateful Bitches Apr 22, 2022

    “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” The Abortion Access Front Podcast is here with episode 18 and we’re bringing you ALL the information on the latest anti-abortion BS. This week, the breaking news is coming in hot and at 100. With the help of three special guest abobo warriors, we’re popping off about the good, the bad, & all the BS in between that you & your uterus need to know about!

    The misogynistic Texas rep Chuckie doll, aka Briscoe Cain, threatened abortion funds with cease and desist letters and posted them to Twitter. So badass supershero Wendy Davis said f*ck that & filed a lawsuit against TX SB8. One of her lawyers, Tanya Pellegrini, is here to spill the tea! + WTF just went down in Kentucky?! A judge just blocked KY’s shitty total abortion ban. Erin Smith, executive director of Kentucky Health Justice Network, joins us to drop all the knowledge on what this means for the only two providers in the state & pregnant Kentuckians, what YOU can do about it, and what happens next.

    PLUS if that ain’t enough for y’all, we’ve also got comedian, actor, writer, & overall abobo badass queer icon D’Lo in the house! We’re chatting with him about his upcoming summer solo show and more!

    Five Fetuses in a Freezer?! OMG Apr 03, 2022

    Abortion Access Front’s “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” is celebrating Trans Day of Visibility and bringing you ALL the information on the latest anti-abortion BS. How exactly do you spell BS? L-a-u-r-e-n H-a-n-d-y. Our Feminist Buzzkills are popping off on the bizarro story of anti-abortion ghoul, Lauren Handy, who had five fetuses in her freezer & was one of the nine extremists arrested by the FBI for invading a DC clinic in 2020. WE’VE GOT QUESTIONS & AAF’s head BS-hunter & security expert, Kat Green, has answers!

    + This week included National Trans Day of Visibility, so Abortion Access Front’s Feminist Buzzkills have a treat for you – TWO treats to be exact! We’ve got Aspen Ruhlin of The Mabels Wadsworth Feminist Health Center in Bangor, Maine here to drop their knowledge on trans & non-binary reproductive healthcare, inclusive ways to talk about abortion, and how to be an actual ally on the daily. PLUS Jaye McBride, former head writer of Abortion Access Front & comedy queen, joins us to talk about all things abortion, the importance of trans representation on stage, & her upcoming tour with Amy f**king Schumer!

    Expose Fake Clinics! Mar 27, 2022

    Abortion Access Front’s Feminist Buzzkills Pod is droppin’ BS like it’s hot! Though states run by conservatives are obsessively copy-catting Texas’s anti-abortion laws, this episode somehow has more good news than all previous 14 episodes combined. AND we’re exposing all these fake ass clinics coming for your uterus! Spoiler alert: there are about 750 reproductive health centers in America that actually offer abortions. Meanwhile, there are about 3,000 fake clinics trying to swipe your bodily autonomy.

    Tara Murtha of The Women’s Law Project hops in to share her research on these fake clinics (a.k.a. Crisis Pregnancy Centers a.k.a. CPCs) and expose the weird ways anti-abortion fools use them to track people. She breaks down the terrifying truths of the “Dystopian Frontier of Surveillance” for people with uteri and explains why you should never trust someone who calls themselves a “care agent.”

    Plus, hilarious multi-hyphenate queen, comedian, author, podcaster, and cat mom Leighann Lord, is here to talk about her nerd status, her Showtime special (Even More Funny Women of a Certain Age) and how she exposes the trifecta of racism, sexism, and ageism in her comedy sets.

    You Must Take a Pregnancy Test Before Leaving the State Mar 19, 2022

    This week’s Abortion Access Front’s Feminist Buzzkills Pod’s spotlight is on abobo supershero, Amy Hagstrom Miller. The CEO & founder of Whole Woman’s Health Alliance is here to drop her knowledge on all things Texas, including what this hellish 6-week ban dystopia has been looking like for pregnant folx & providers during the 6 months it has been in effect, + she updates the Buzzkills on her lawsuit against Texas’ grotesque abortion bounty hunter law. To top all that off, she shares some exciting news for people with uteri in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis & St. Paul!

    Then, in “honor” of Women’s History Month, the Buzzkills will host an “author” who’s written a book on women in history who achieved great things all while on their periods. We have questions…

    And of course, they’ll cover the latest news from the well-traveled intersections of reproductive rights and misogyny. It looks like anti- abortion politicians have created their own March Madness, with Oklahoma, Idaho, & Missouri seeded high in the brackets.

    Never fear, you Buzzkills are here to break it down, ‘cause you know us, when BS is poppin’, we pop off!

    Abortion Provider Appreciation Day Mar 12, 2022

    It’s Abortion Provider Appreciation Day, and Abortion Access Front’s Feminist Buzzkills Pod has PEACHES, as in “The Teaches of,” in the house to celebrate abortion providers AND talk about her work & her current 20th anniversary tour.

    PLUS on this special day, we love extra hard on the Women’s Health Center of West Virginia, the ONLY remaining abortion clinic in all of WV. Executive director Katie Quiñonez shares with us what it really means to provide care in the only clinic in her state. She talks about the challenges they face, and why it is a cautionary tale of what is to come for the nation. Not only does @WomensHealthWV offer safe abortions, but also a full range of high-quality reproductive health care from pregnancy & parenting support to cancer screenings. They truly do the most for the uteri in WV. We see you & appreciate you!

    All this, plus our Buzzkills each do a deep dive into the different barriers facing West Virginians who need abortion care. From Joe Manchin to protestors buying property across from the clinic, to the fake clinic RIGHT NEXT DOOR, we paint a vivid picture of the fuckery. ‘Cause you know us, when BS is poppin’, we pop off!

    Abortion Access Front’s Feminist Buzzkills Pod is back with episode 12! Spoiler Alert: We’re about to say the word “abortion” more times in the next 30 minutes than Joe Biden will say in his entire lifetime.

    We’ve got y’all with another *chefs kiss* special guest lineup: MSNBC Law & Politics Analyst, Slate Senior Editor, and Supreme Court expert, Dahlia Lithwick, is here to give us the scoop on President Biden’s Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, what her nomination means for abortion rights, and why she is an absolute gamechanger for the representation we need at #SCOTUS.

    AND Beth Lapides is in the building! Y’all might recognize her as the Godmother of alternative comedy and from her legendary show @UnCabaret. She’s here to crack us TF up & spill all the tea on her new book, “So You Need To Decide.”

    PLUS- we’re popping off about Lent, AKA 40 days of harassment and extra stanky BS that abortion clinics will have to face (hypocritesunmasked.com/40days). The Buzzkills can’t make it make sense, but we sure will expose it for what it is & tell you what YOU can do about it.

    The Best and the 3rd Worst Abortion Laws of 2021 Jan 01, 2022

    Bell Hooks once wrote, “If we want a beloved community, we must stand for justice,” & thanks to y’all, it looks like we’re doing a pretty kickass job. With your support, @AbortionAccessFront is diving right into 2022, full throttle baby!

    In episode 5 of “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” we’re wrapping up this reproductive rollercoaster of a year with a special co-host, founder & director of “We Testify,” co-author of upcoming book Countering Abortionsplaining, Renee Brace Sherman (aka the Beyoncé of abortion storytelling). She helps us narrow down the best & the 3rd worst abortion laws of 2021 (since it’s pretty obvious which ones landed in 1st & 2nd) and she shares with us her predictions for 2022. Plus, abortion’s #1 cis-male fan, professional Prooper, “The Smartest Man in the World” podcaster, & crew member of “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” – Greg Proops.

    We’ll be streaming a “Best Of” episode next week but we will back live on Jan 13th. In the meantime, you can keep up with all the latest news about the invasive species trying to get all up in your junk by following @AbortionFront on all the socials. When BS is poppin’, we pop off!

In this FBK Newsbreak, your Feminist Buzzkills interview Hillary Schneller, the lead attorney from the Center for Reproductive Rights who will be arguing against this case before the Supreme Court on December 1, 2021. In preparation for December 1st, we did an interview back in May with Hillary, aka THE person who could help teach us all what's at stake and what we can do to support Mississippi and protect our right to decisions about OUR BODIES.

    Quick Hits:

    The Mississippi Case


    Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health will argued at SCOTUS on December 1, 2021


    Hillary Schneller Introduction


    Hillary Schneller is a senior staff attorney at the Center for Reproductive Rights (@reprorights) who will be the LEAD attorney challenging the Mississippi case at SCOTUS


    Meaty Story:

    Facts of Mississippi’s case breakdown by Hillary Schneller


    2018 – Mississippi originally passes the 15-week ban

    Explicit purpose of this ban – to provoke SCOTUS to take a case that would challenge Roe v. Wade which has protected legal abortion in the US since 1973

    Immediately blocked by the lower court & 5th circuit court of appeals

    June, 2021 – SCOTUS agrees to hear Mississippi case


    What is at stake?


    “The state chose to pass a law it knew was unconstitutional to endorse a decades-long campaign fueled by national interest groups to ask the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade” – US District Court Judge Carlton Reeves

    If overturned, many states will follow Mississippi’s lead in successfully passing anti-abortion bans

    10+ states have “trigger” bans in place which will end abortion within 24 hours as soon as Roe is overturned


    What can you do?

So, hop back in with us for Part 2 as we tackle a closer discourse on access to abortion care in prisons and the specific challenges faced by incarcerated undocumented folks.

    Chancellor’s Professor at UC Irvine, Author of Policing the Womb, podcast host of “On the Issues with Michele Goodwin,” ACLU Board member



    Meaty Story / Dr. Michele Goodwin shares her knowledge:

    Marie brings in the Nebraska news story


    Nebraska inmate sues for right to get abortion


    Marie’s questions for Dr. Goodwin — If someone is pregnant and is incarcerated/being held, do they always need to fight for care like this? Are there states with better track records regarding incarcerated pregnant folks?


    This happens often & in other states as well

    California has a Reproductive Privacy Act written into its constitution

    New York has a Reproductive Health and Privacy Act


    This past decade has had a dramatic uprise in TRAP Laws:


    From 2010-2013, there were more anti-abortion laws that were proposed and enacted than in the 30 years prior, COMBINED!!!


    Lizz’s questions for Dr. Goodwin — As we see the intersection between anti-abortion extremists, White supremacy,Christian extremists, and law enforcement, are those who are working inside the prison system just straight up ignoring this pregnant person’s request for an abortion or reproductive care?


    “To put it quite simply, that is absolutely what’s happening” – Dr. Goodwin


    Jane Doe Abortion Case (2017-2019)


    ****HORRIFYING FACT ALERT (Opposite of a Fun Fact)!!!****


    The judge who wrote the dissenting opinion on the Jane Doe case, is Brett Kavanaugh of the Supreme Court



    Brigitte Amiri, along with the ACLU, played a critical role in this case

    Brigitte Amiri’s Deposition of Scott Lloyd & the horrors of Refugee Resettlement


    Pauli Murray & Jane Crow


    She wrote about the intersectional harms of race & sex, 1930’s

    The state surveillance of incarcerated pregnant women

    The Disgusting Lack of Repro Healthcare for the Incarcerated with Dr. Michele Goodwin – Part 1 Nov 19, 2021





    It’s a Feminist Buzzkills News Break! Along with an incredible special guest, the Buzzkills take a deep dive into what healthcare access looks like for incarcerated folks in the US – a dive so deep, that we’ll be breaking it all down over 2 episodes! Joining us with her expertise (and unstoppable glasses game) in discussing the overall challenges for healthcare, reproductive, and pregnancy care within this country’s racist, sexist, inhumane prison system is multi-hyphenate Badass, Reproductive Justice scholar and fighter, Chancellor’s Professor at UC Irvine, ACLU board member, author of Policing the Womb, podcast host of Ms. Magazine’s “On the Issues with Michele Goodwin,” and so much more – Dr. Michele B Goodwin!!
