Full episode transcript HERE.Another Friday, another new drop of Abortion Access Front’s “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” pod. As always, we are bringing y’all a knockout lineup of guests to hop in our Buzzkill shenanigans. Karishma Oza, director of patient services at the DuPont Clinic in Washington DC, AKA one of the few clinics in the country that provides all-trimester abortion care, chats with us about second- and third- trimester abortion myths and breaks down all the ways you can show someone getting an abortion emotional support.PLUS, legendary actor, comedian, and cat/dog/plant momma Margaret Cho stops by! Listen to us blab about what her queer ass is up to, why we wish we could be her cats and how everything that’s good is gay. Period. And of course we’re running our mouths about the abobo news! From fetuses being accused of floating around in uteri like they’re on a fucking magic carpet, to the best and worst states to have and raise a baby, and some bright spots for you this week too! Pro-abortion wins are being sprinkled all over, from Wyoming to Texas to Montana, California, and Vermont! It’s a heavy show today, but it’s all necessary to break through the abortion stigmas that hang around like farts from your ex.OPERATION SAVE ABORTION: In case you missed out on the training day we’ve been blabbing about nonstop, you can still join the 10,000+ womb warriors fighting the patriarchy by clicking HERE for your toolkit, marching orders, and more! HOSTS:Lizz Winstead @LizzWinsteadMoji Alawode-El @MojiLocksMarie Khan @MjKhan  SPECIAL GUESTS: Karishma Oza @DuPontClinic Margaret Cho IG: @Margaret_Cho / TW: @MargaretCho  THE BAD SHIT:South Carolina Sen.Tim Scott Claims Democrats Want Abortions Up To 52 WeeksFBI has opened ‘a number’ of abortion-related violence investigationsGeorgia “Fetal Personhood” Abortion Law Now Includes a $3,000 Tax ExemptionFlorida’s DeSantis Suspends Tampa Prosecutor Who Vowed Not to Criminalize AbortionIndiana’s New Near Total Abortion Ban Leads to Political and Economic FalloutIndiana’s New Near Total Abortion Ban Will Shut Down Abortion Clinics THE GOOD SHIT:Some South Carolina Republicans pause at abortion ban brinkAfter Kansas, Four More States Set to Vote on the Future of AbortionNebraska Republicans lack votes to amend state's anti-abortion lawsAbortion in Wyoming will continueMontana abortion laws remain blocked during legal challengeDallas City Council passed a “Reproductive Rights Resolution” 13-1 ​GUEST LINKS:DuPont ClinicAmazon Wishlist: DuPont ClinicMargaret Cho’s WebsiteGawk at Margaret’s Dope Catio Watch Fire Island on Hulu EPISODE LINKS:Netroots Nation in Pittsburgh 8/18-8/20TICKETS: Lizz Winstead live at The West Theater in Duluth, MN 9/15Midwest Access Coalition / @midwest_access_coalition (IG) @MidwestAccess (TW)AAF’s Abortion-Themed Rage Playlist FOLLOW US:Instagram, Twitter, Facebook ~ @AbortionFrontTikTok ~ AbortionAFYouTube ~ @AbortionAccessFront PATREON HERE!
