ATTENTION BUZZKILLIANS: It’s our last podcast before the possible end of Democracy, so we (plus a couple of special guests) are dropping our two cents on why y’all should be FLEXING THAT VOTER MUSCLE! Got the right to vote? GO EXERCISE THAT SHI! 

AND OBVI, rage levels spiked this week as we stumbled across something called the “Aryan Nation Freedom Fest.” It’s exactly what it sounds like – PLOT TWIST: Wait till you hear how it is connected to anti-abortion maternity homes. In more exciting news – An Arizona abortion provider has found a way to legally provide abortion care to patients suffering miscarriages outside of the state’s 15-week abortion ban, and we are THRILLED to deliver this glimmer of joy and hope to your earholes.

 

GUEST ROLL CALL:

We got to kiki with actor, activist and philanthropist Torrey DeVitto! The womb warrior and One Tree Hill/Chicago Med/Vampire Diaries star chats with us on being LOUD AF about her activism and values, clapping back to the haters as a soon-to-be-parent for abortion access, her latest IG live series “Stream of Consciousness,” and telling her abortion story in People Magazine. PLUS! Renee Bracey Sherman, Co-Author of Liberating Abortion and Founder/Executive Director of We Testify is BACK with the Buzzkills to spill all the guts on her extraordinary, must-read book that deep dives into the history of abortion through re-centering the experiences of the Black and Brown folks who have had abortions and the leaders of the Reproductive Justice movement who continue to pave the path to bodily autonomy. 

 

Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu. 

 

OPERATION SAVE ABORTION: You can still join the 10,000+ womb warriors fighting the patriarchy by listening to our five-part OpSave pod series and Mifepristone Panel by clicking HERE for episodes, your toolkit, marching orders, and more.
