The Supreme Court has us pissed off and unwell… again. Your Feminist Buzzkills are channeling that rage into another podisode for your earholes! Have you ever heard of a molar pregnancy? We hadn’t either. And spoiler alert: it’s terrifying.

This episode is hard but important. We have an exclusive interview with one of the pod’s oldest friends, telling her own extremely personal, heartbreaking abortion story. Amber Gavin, AAF OG and VP of Advocacy and Operations over at A Woman’s Choice Clinics, drops in to share her chilling molar pregnancy story for the first time.

PLUS, Katherine Riley, the Policy Director of COLOR Latina, AKA the ONLY Latinx-led reproductive justice organization in all of Colorado, is here. She talks with us about how Latinx Coloradans are doing the absolute most for abortion access, intersectionality, and shares all of the amazing kick-ass work COLOR does.

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