Shenanigans at the 5th Circus Court With RaeShandra Lias & Nikki Sapiro Vinckier
1w ago01:13:08Tap to summarizeIT’S BEEN A WEEK!!! Lizz and Moji have been chugging Imodium the last seven days as they follow the twists and turns of the Fifth Circus Court ruling that created a federal ban and put the mail distribution of the abortion pill mifepristone on the chopping block. Between Sam Alito giving us a week of reprieve to dial back our panic to 23/7 and the FDA assessing the fate of abortion medication using a debunked “study” (really just a forced-birth fever dream scribbled on fishwrap), we were already hanging by a thread. Then Oklahoma decided to do the absolute most by funneling money to FAKE clinics. So yeah, you’re gonna need an emotional support drink, spliff, snack, or whatever survival instincts you have left for this episode. GUEST ROLL CALL: We had to call in backup for this one! We are joined by Michigan-based OGBYN PA-C, Author, and Creator, Nikki Sapiro Vinckier – the ultimate reproductive health sherpa! Nikki is going to talk about her new book, “We Deserve More,” her latest citizen-led repro win in Michigan, and guide us through EVERYTHING that is happening to access to medication abortion right now. Can we still get pills? How do we get pills? What pills can we still get? Will Sam Alito give me pills? WE NEED ANSWERS, AND NIKKI IS DELIVERING! PLUS! THE ONE AND ONLY, RaeShanda Lias is here and queeeeer, babay! The absolutely fabulous Digital Creator & Diversity Advocate joins the Buzzkills to fill our joy cups back up by making us laugh, reminding us that Black queer love is indeed thriving, talking to us about clapping back online, her new podcast, and checking the board about RFK Jr. being absolute trash. You’re welcome. Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

Apr 1001:11:30Tap to summarizeIt’s another edition of “What the actual fuck is going on?” LFG. Our intrepid Feminist Buzzkills Lizz and Moji are back and bringing good news from Middle Earth — you know, Illinois and Wisconsin. They also go deep laying out how this week's attack on birth control, abortion, military rights, and voting rights are the latest ingredients in the larger toxic stew of oppression being cooked up by our enemies for 2027. COOL. GUEST ROLL CALL: WE HAVE 2026 OSCAR NOMINEES IN THE HOUSE! From the documentary short “The Devil Is Busy,” Feminist Center For Reproductive Liberation Executive Director Kwajelyn Jackson and Head of Security Tracii Wesley talk about the film, and navigating all the challenges providing abortion care under a six week ban in Georgia. It’s a lot, y’all, but they’re dropping the knowledge you didn’t know you needed. PLUS! Author Kate Schatz is talking about being a teen feminist in the ‘90s, and how her own mom’s experiences inspired her new book, “Where the Girls Were.” It’s a heartbreaking and empowering story of unintended pregnancy, maternity homes, and resilience set in the late 1960s. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll immediately buy her book from an independent bookstore. It’s the only way. Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

Indie Clinics Kick Against the Pricks With Amy Hagstrom Miller & Gwen Levey
Feb 1300:49:42Tap to summarizeYour weekly report from Abobolandia is here, it’s hot, and it’s served up fresh with a heavy dollop of snark. The attacks on the abortion pill mifepristone continue. HHS just said pharmacies don’t have to stock abortion pills anymore. Cool cool cool. Totally normal functioning democracy stuff.Meanwhile, manufacturers of the pill are gearing up to fight what could become a national telehealth abortion ban, and for once we're actually rooting for Big Pharma. We won't make it a thing, we promise. GUEST ROLL CALL:Moji and Lizz sit down with Amy Hagstrom Miller, President & CEO of Whole Woman’s Health, who is providing telehealth abortion care in 10 states while the federal government plays regulatory roulette with people’s bodies. Independent clinics still provide the majority of abortion care in this country. Yes, indie clinics, not hospital systems, not corporations, and they are being squeezed from every direction. Then musician and activist Gwen Levey pulls up to talk to Moji about using her voice loudly in a moment when silence is complicity, and especially as the DOJ refuses to meaningfully pursue accountability for the victims of Jeffrey Epstein. Her video, “Barefoot & Pregnant,” recently went viral for highlighting the atrocities of Project 2026. Institutions bending over backwards for predators and cracking down on bodily autonomy is all part of their plan. But never, fear! We have the info you need and the tools to fight back.Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.

Medical Marijuana Card For A Fetus?! With Karen Thompson & Abby Govindan
Feb 601:13:15Tap to summarizeYour Feminist Buzzkills are pouring out all the latest abobo-related tea that is bound to curdle your girdle! Nobody is coming to save us, folks—we’re doing the damn thing ourselves. Lizz and Moji lay out how the Trump administration is using a law written to protect abortion providers to prosecute Don Lemon! And Texas continues to Texas, as The Turning Point USA-ssholes at Texas Tech are out here banning the speech of abortion providers on their campus. And in other “Texas-men-pissing-us-off” news: another Lone Star loser is testing the misogynistic waters of shiny new anti-abobo law that allows him to sue a California doctor for legally prescribing abortion pills to his girlfriend. Creeps need some hobbies y’all. GUEST ROLL CALL Karen Thompson, Legal Director of Pregnancy Justice, is in the house! Karen is sounding the alarm with Lizz and Moji on pregnancy criminalization as she dives into the overt and covert ways this government is policing pregnancy outcomes—information we ALL need to know! PLUS! Abby Govindan is here!Do not fear—Buzzkills have comedy, m’dear! The comedian and writer stops by to share how she navigates the world as a child of immigrants and gives a sneak peek into her new solo show, “Pushing 30”. Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.
