Full episode transcript HERE.
Roses are red, violets are blue, we’re ready to fuck some shit up – how about you? Nothing says “love” like living through the current soul scorchings and still showing up every day to make a difference! On this week’s pod, your Feminist Buzzkills are diving deep into Indiana gutting HIPAA for abortion patients, redefining and coming after birth control, and how some badass Indiana doctors are fighting back! What does that mean for the rest of us not living there? A whole hell of a lot! PLUS, remember that New York doctor who prescribed a pregnant person in Dallas abortion pills? Well, Louisiana and Texas are in full-on hater mode, and we’ve got some big updates on the case.
AND WE’VE GOT GUESTS! Who are our V-Day partners in crime this week? Everyone's fav witchy Valentine, Bitch is in the house! The legendary musician, writer, and performance artist sits down with your Buzzkills to yap about her new show, “B*TCHCRAFT,” moving forward in Trump's hellscape, and healing and resisting through art and community!
Valentine #2, Amy Merrill, is here too! We break down the recent flurry of assaults on medication abortion with the Co-Founder and Co-Director of Plan C. Amy helps us navigate the case of the NY doctor being sued for sending abortion pills through the mail, and how abobo patients can better protect themselves – especially as we are heading into the abortion upside down.
Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.
