THE ANTI-ABOBOS ARE GETTING BOLDER IN BOULDER With Carmen Morales & Jess Pieklo

August 14, 2026

Listen on:

Lizz is off being fabulous at a super cool abortion conference this week so Moji is joined by the brilliant, Legal Analyst Baddie known as Jess Pieklo!! Wooooooooo! Jess and Moj are getting into the dirty deets of Florida’s latest attempt to win the gold medal in the Anti-Science Olympics. PLUS! Because cops continue to find new and creative ways to disappoint us, they also cover reports out of Boulder, Colorado, where police officers have been praying alongside anti-abortion protesters outside clinics. ACAB means all cops, even the ones who think they’re moonlighting as pastors. BUT HOLD UP, they’re also CELEBRATING *gasp* a couple of rare, beautiful abobo wins…ahhh celebration – we’ve missed you, old friend!

GUEST ROLL CALL:

Have you ever wondered what actually happens when someone needs abortion or miscarriage care later in pregnancy? Erika Christensen, Co-Founder of Patient Forward, joins us to share her own experience, break down why later abortion care is so misunderstood and VITAL, and introduce their new Get Later Care resource, because accurate information shouldn’t be harder to find than anti-abortion propaganda!

PLUS! Hold onto your cafecito because Carmen Morales is here to hilariously unpack hormones, narcissistic parents, and being an I-grew-up-in-Florida survivor. The FUNNY AF comedian and podcaster swings by to yap about her podcast, being “chemically in a weird place” (thanks, PCOS – yes we are still using its deadname), getting radicalized by her aunties, and the beautiful art of dragging the Sunshine State. 

Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.
