Episode 97: I Don’t Want My Breast Exam at Walgreens

I Don’t Want My Breast Exam at Walgreens

Description: We open this episode with the elephant in the room- the fact that racism, sexism and transphobia exist in our movement and we must address it. And it wouldn’t be a proper show without trash comments about abortion coming out of the Vatican and Louisiana. Then we close out with another elephant in the room as Moji, Lizz and Marie do their white (GOP) elephant gift exchange on the pod and also offer some dope suggestions for actual gifts that also support amazing non profits!!!
