Feminist Sleeper Cell

Operation Save Abortion: Alabama Special Edition


Listen Later


Check out our Very special edition of this weeks Pod. Instead of doing a proper Feminist Sleeper Cell show this week, Lizz, Moji and Marie, are bringing you the audio version of another show they do for our sibling org, Abortion Access Front.  AA Front are playing around with a video comedy talk show format so we thought we’d pull the audio to give you a taste of what we got cooking so listen and enjoy! This episode features a breakdown of all things Alabama with special guests from The Yellowhammer Fund and The West Alabama Women's Center, a hilarious convo & standup set from the amazing comedianJoyelle Johnson, and we hit some top news stories that will explode your head. If you wanna watch the video cast, you can find it on all of our social platforms @abortionfront
