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! 


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.
