Episode Details

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!
