Kiss My Kans-ass With Judith Arcana

Full episode transcript HERE. IT’S ABORTION ACCESS FRONT’S AND LIZZ’S BIRTHDAY! The Feminist Buzzkills are here to celebrate by poppin’ off about this week’s latest anti-abortion BS that spews from the invasive misogynist species who refuse to get out of everybody’s junk. Don’t worry, though! The abortion gods must’ve heard it was Lizz’s birthday, because they made it rain some not-so-shitty news this week too. From clerics suing over Florida’s fucked up abortion law, to President Biden FINALLY saying “abortion,” to a Michigan judge extending their order barring enforcement of the state’s dusty old 1931 anti-abortion law, we are serving up some major seratonin boosts for you and your uteri. Expect a deep dive into Kansas’s latest abortion win and what we actually think about it. Also, who wants to talk about the new fake clinic, bar and grill, miniature golf course and shame spa going up in Corpus Christi, Texas? We do!PLUS, joining us this week is the ICONIC Judith Arcana, AKA one of the original, legendary Chicago Janes, who bravely helped women get safe abortions before Roe! She’s blessing all of us with her stories of what it was like to form the Janes, the obstacles and danger they faced, how they shaped the blueprint that abortion activists use today. And she’s our questions about the incredible HBO documentary The Janes! Do yourself a favor and stream it. You’re welcome. P.S.
