The Feminist Buzzkills are back from break and guess who became more progressive than the USA while we were away? MEXICO, BABY! Their blissfully Amy Coney Barrett-free Supreme Court just DECRIMINALIZED ABORTION NATIONWIDE. It’s a huge deal and on this week’s pod, Moji and Lizz are sipping margaritas and explaining HOW huge, both for our southern neighbor AND for those of us in Los Estados Unidos. We’re also catching you uterus warriors up with this fall’s abortion ballot initiative in Ohio and what the fallout will be if the Florida Supreme Court finds abortion is NOT protected in their constitution!

PLUS, we’re bringing y’all some fabu special guests, as per ushe. What’s it like being an abortion provider in Joe Manchin’s abortion-less West Virginia? Katie Quiñonez fills us in! The Executive Director of the Women's Health Centers of West Virginia and Maryland delivers the facts on what abobo access in WV looks like, the challenges they’ve faced while opening their NEW MD clinic, why fake clinics are trash and more!

AND to help us laugh through these shenanigans, the incredible comedian Emma Arnold is in the house! This hilarious TERF-slaying Idaho supermom drops all the knowledge about abortion, intersectional feminism, and... Beekeeping? Yep! You don’t wanna miss it!

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