“Feminist Buzzkills Live!” is broadcasting LIVE! from Netroots Nation in Pittsburgh this week, with a whole entire live audience, too! 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! The world is heavy right now, but we got you.
