| ENCORE: SUPREME COURT UNANIMOUSLY PROTECTS MIFEPRISTONE With Chris Geidner | 09 Aug 2024 | 00:44:18 | |
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.

| Expose Fake Clinics! | 27 Mar 2022 | 00:36:16 | |
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. ‘Cause you know us: when BS is poppin’, we pop off!

| You Must Take a Pregnancy Test Before Leaving the State | 19 Mar 2022 | 00:31:41 | |
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.

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.

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!

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.

| Indiana Rules Abortion Is a Religious Right With Laurie Kilmartin & Tracy Weitz | 12 Apr 2024 | 01:13:10 | |
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!

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 She wrote about the intersectional harms of race & sex, 1930’s The state surveillance of incarcerated pregnant women Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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.

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

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

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.

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