Episode 73: The Abortion Roller Coaster Continues

April 10, 2020 Brad Off FEATURED, Podcast Episodes,

SPECIAL GUEST: Eliza Hittman- Writer/director of the new film “Never Always Sometimes Rarely”

Description: The cellmates Marie, Moji and Lizz hop on the abortion access roller coaster and ride with Texas as it dips in and out of access. As of now, a judge allows clinics to reopen…but like a roller coaster, who knows what the next turn will be. Plus- while abortion clinics are being deemed by shitty politicians as “non essential” FAKE ABORTION CLINICS ARE ALLOWED TO REMAIN OPEN.Yep, lying to people about abortion is now deemed “essential”… Ugh, just ugh.

Bill Withers has passed from COVID19 (https://www.charlestonchronicle.net/2020/04/08/in-memoriam-lean-on-me-singer-songwriting-legend-bill-withers-dies-at-81/) > Per Lizz “I don’t know if I can tie Bill Withers to abortion- I probably fucked to his songs, but that doesn’t count” … THAT MEANS MOJI AND MARIE STUMPED LIZZ!
