The Weirdos Are Loud

Full episode transcript HERE.

It’s officially spring, y’all, and we’re using this season of growth to sow those fertile seeds of abortion activism. Why do we need activism as self-care, you ask? BECAUSE OF WYOMING, IDAHO, UTAH, and all the other states that are obsessed with getting all up in our junk. How are the latest trash anti-abortion laws in these states leading to a hospital’s obstetric services being shut down and nationwide doctor shortages? Which of the dickwad Carolinas’ legislatures is inching closer to allowing the death penalty for abortion? And what happens if the Indian Child Welfare Act is overturned? Your PISSED OFF Feminist Buzzkills are here with everything you and your uterus need to know!

Obviously, we brought in another iconic special guest lineup to get this Buzzkill party going! Badass filmmaker extraordinaire Tracy Droz Tragos is here talking about her stellar documentary “Plan C,” the inspiration behind it, and answers our question: is distributing a film about medication abortion just as hard as distributing the abortion pill itself? PLUS, the fabulous and hilarious comedian Shalewa Sharpe joins us! She chats it up with us about her podcast “The War Report,” drags Atlanta’s wack “Cop City,” and cracks us up with her stories from working at a porn shop.
