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!

Ep 59The Latest Abortion Pill Ruling Explained With Dr. Michele Goodwin

E

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!FOLLOW US:Listen to us ~ FBK PodcastInstagram ~ @AbortionFrontTwitter ~ @AbortionFrontTikTok ~ @AbortionFrontFacebook ~ @AbortionFrontYouTube ~ @AbortionAccessFrontPATREON HERE!

Ep 57Trans Day of Visibility

E

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.

Ep 56The Weirdos Are Loud

E

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.

Ep 50Fake Clinics Out Here Causing Cancer

E

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!

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.

Ep 40Abortion Providers Put DC on Notice

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!

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.

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!If you have any questions, reach out to [email protected]. Full English transcript available HERE.Full Spanish transcript available HERE.

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.

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!

E

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!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 clicking HERE for your toolkit, marching orders, and more!HOSTS:Lizz Winstead @LizzWinsteadMoji Alawode-El @MojiLocksMarie Khan @MjKhan SPECIAL GUEST: Judith ArcanaTHE BAD SHIT:West Virginia Abortion Ban Passes Senate and Heads to HouseIndiana’s Near-Total Abortion Ban Moves to HouseKentucky Judge Reinstitutes State Abortion Ban, Reversing Lower CourtA Texas Blueprint for Converting the ‘Abortion-Minded’: Lattes and a ViewTHE GOOD SHIT:Atlanta City Council Approves Donation to an Abortion FundAustin City Council Passes Grace Act to Decriminalize Abortion Despite Statewide BanPennsylvania’s Gov.

Ep 29Have You Tried Turning Your Manhood Off and On?

E

Full episode transcript HEREThis 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.

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!

Ep 27Patriarchal Turducken

E

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.

Ep 25SCOTUS IS TRASH: We Have Thoughts and Actions

E

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.

Ep 22I Regret My Abortion Ban

E

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.

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!Sign up for Operation Save Abortion via the link below & follow @AbortionFront on all socials - we’ll keep you one step ahead of the garbage womb raiders trying to seize your bodily autonomy.‘Cause you know us, when BS is poppin’, we pop off!HOSTS:Lizz Winstead @LizzWinsteadMoji Alawode-El @MojiLocksMarie Khan @MjKhan SPECIAL GUESTS:Poonam Dreyfus-Pai of @alloptionsnatl Aparna Nancherla @aparnapkinROECABULARY WORD: Preliminary Injunction – Pre–trial court order that stops or sometimes mandates an action by another party.EPISODE LINKS:All-Options WebsiteAll-Options Talkline : 888-493-0092Aparna Nancherla’s WebsiteOPERATION SAVE ABORTIONMidwest Access Coalition / @midwest_access_coalition (IG) @MidwestAccess (TW)GET SOME FBK MERCH!AAF’s Abortion-Themed Rage PlaylistFOLLOW US:Listen to us ~ FBK PodcastInstagram ~ @AbortionFrontTwitter ~ @AbortionFrontTikTok ~ AbortionAFFacebook ~ @AbortionFrontYouTube ~ @AbortionAccessFrontPATREON HERE!DONATE HERE!VOLUNTEER WITH US HERE!ADOPT-A-CLINIC + WISHLIST HERE!HYPOCRITES UNMASKED HERE!EXPOSE FAKE CLINICS HERE!------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------See you next week!FBK Pod ~ Fridays at 6PM ETWhen BS is poppin’, we pop off!
