Hey john, it’s Marie and Moji coming at ya this week! Lizz is off being professionally funny in Duluth. Coming up on this week’s show: On August 25, the new Tennessee abortion ban went into effect making performing an abortion a felony, with no exceptions, leaving it up to the doctor to prove why it was medically necessary. Why not just leave the entire procedure up to the doctor and the patient? Well, we guess they have their reasons (cough *patriarchy* cough). Chloe Akers, a lawyer, read this law, said WHAT?!, read it again, and decided she needed to leave her cushy lawyer job ASAP to spend her time helping doctors figure this shit out. The Veteran’s Administration says it will provide abortion for all servicemembers and covered dependents, but how are they going to get around the Hyde amendment? Real Life Keebler Elf Lindsey Graham Cracker dropped a proposed 15-week federal ban this week only 11 weeks after he said abortion should be left up to the states. Does that mean we can abort this terrible plan? |

| Our guests this week are Calla Halles from A Preferred Women’s Health Center in North Carolina, to fill us in on what is like to run a clinic with hundreds (yes, HUNDREDS) of anti-abortion protestors outside the clinic every day. How does one even manage to work in this environment? And what does it mean for the people already having to travel for days for an abortion just to get to this festival of shitweasels parading outside? Then the one and only Bitch talks about escaping New York (like Kurt Russell minus the eyepatch) and touring in the post-Covid era. She also fills us in on how she picked her song for the upcoming Do Re Me#Too. What’s Do Re #MeToo? Why, only the most fabulous of live-streaming concerts featuring rad feminists covering absolutely atrocious sexist songs! You can join us on October 6 from anywhere — just sign up! Registration is free, but it is required. |
