2025/12/19
*Mariah Carey voice* IT’S TIIIIIIIIME… For our annual year-in-review! HOE-HOE-HOLY shit, Buzzkillianas. 2025 was a hellacious year in Abortlandia, so you already know the Feminist Buzzkills are re-hashing, re-roasting, re-raging, and even re-celebrating over what went down this year in regards to all tings repro-related.   Lizz and Moji took a little sleigh ride down memory lane, made their lists checking them twice, and figured out what stories were the naughtiest, the nicest and the bizarre AF-est! From a certain brainworm host thinking the nation guzzles abortion water, to exposing the hypocrisy of an anti-abobo Bible humper who just got caught using AI to make something so disgusting we'd get banned if we told you—so we’re spilling anyway. And YES, there actually were some abobo wins this year too! So, buckle up for our favorite end of year tradition: unpacking the year’s top-tier triumphs and bottom-of-the-barrel, bargain-bin bullshit of abortion news.   Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all.

2025/09/12
Feminist Buzzkills is officially BACK! WHEEEEE! Lizz is still out meeting with activists and speaking at screenings of the AAF documentary, “No One Asked You,” at The Colombia International Human Rights Festival (dopeness alert). And HUZZAH—joining Moji is AAF’s inimitable Head Writer, Alyssa “Dooks” Al-Dookhi to guest co-host! They’re diving into abortion providers handling IUD insertion pain like pros, the rollercoaster of Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid funding, and fake clinics sneaking into telehealth.   GUEST ROLL CALL! Moji and Dooks chat with real-life clinic superstar, Ali Kliegman, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Care for All Clinic, a brand-spanking-new nonprofit abortion clinic in the heart of Milwaukee. Ali spills the tea about going from concept to real-ass clinic in basically one year, the violence and harassment Care for All has already faced, and how their community model can be a blueprint for healthcare clinics!   PLUS! Get your serotonin boost courtesy of comedian, matchmaker, and lawyer Yasmin Elhady!

ENCORE: Boom! Buzzkilled: Microdosing the Roepocalypse With Imani Gandy & Jess
2025/08/29
Follow along with slideshow visuals HERE.   ENCORE ALERT! The Feminist Buzzkills are out on a summer break! But, no need to fear – we’re leaving y’all with some extra brain juice to keep you company while we’re offline. We’re dropping an ENCORE POD EPISODE of when we collabed with the iconic “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy and Jess Pieklo IN DC and broke down SCOTUS’ Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic arguments back in April. It went a little something like this…   ATTENTION BUZZKILLAHSSSSS! WE DID A LIVE THING – in DC! Yep. Your “Feminist Buzzkills” joined forces with the “Boom! Lawyered” pod for an epic live show!   After getting word that SCOTUS was hearing a case that could result in eliminating any healthcare provider from Medicaid payments if they provide abortion, we geared up for battle for one super-sized show with the amazing “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy (Rewire Editor-at-Large) and Jess Pieklo (Rewire Senior Vice President, Executive Editor.) We break down what this case means, and fill you in on all the outrageous tricks clown lawmakers across the country are playing trying to destroy access to reproductive care. It was a packed show full of rage and shenanigans and the DC crowd LOVED IT!    This episode unpacks the arguments in Medina v Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, a case that could upend Medicaid beneficiaries ability to enforce their rights under the public benefit program all because conservatives hate abortion. We get into the history of efforts to kick Planned Parenthood out of the Medicaid program, the bad faith arguments made by conservatives to the Court as they try to do so again, and how a bad decision in the case could impact way more than access to abortion.   Recorded LIVE at the Black Cat in DC, we gotta give a huge shout out and special thanks to the Black Cat crew for making the space for our loud asses AND for everyone who showed up! Tune in for the legal brilliance, the laughs, the knowledge, and some actions you can take to be the change you wanna see in this world.    Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.    Scared? Got Questions about the continued assault on your reproductive rights? THE FBK LINES ARE OPEN! Just call or text (201) 574-7402, leave your questions or concerns, and Lizz and Moji will pick a few to address on the pod!   OPERATION SAVE ABORTION: WE DID A THING EARLIER THIS MONTH! The Feminist Buzzkills took some big patriarchy-smashing heat to The Big Easy and recorded a live workshop that’ll train you in coming for anti-abobo lawmakers, spotting and fighting against fake clinics, AND gears you up on how to support abortion patients and providers.
