    116 - Everything is Fine lol
    Jun 13 2025
    At times like these, there are SO. MANY. REASONS. you may need an Everything is Fine episode. So, here it is! We barely touch on politics and instead try to make each other laugh all episode with a dorky rap, trivia, a movie review, a new game inspired by our Catholic hospitals episode and a VERY SPECIAL GUEST. Got a pap smear? A DMV appointment? Stuck in traffic? In a conversation you want to low-key ignore? This episode is for you! Pop in those earbuds, use a maxipad as an eye mask to shut-out the oh-so-scary world and play with your fave blosts.

    115 - Catholic Hospitals, Why So Suss!?
    May 9 2025
    We've got our most-Catholic blost bringing you our most Catholic research yet: CATHOLIC HOSPITALS. Guess what? They are problematic. :) We dig into how and why some major reproductive health options are NOT options for patients, how these hospitals are world-wide and often the only health care option for people in rural places. But don't worry, we also have saint trivia to keep your spirits bright. So, take a shot of holy water, say whaddup to the new Pope (Midwest in the HOUSE - what could go wrong lol) and listen in!

    114 - Fantastic Orgasms and Where to Find Them
    Apr 11 2025
    We're talking all things *climax* babyyyyyy! From biologically what's going on, to historical understandings of female genitalia, female pleasure erasure and the triumphant discovery of the clitoris... by men. Because, ya know, if you have a clitoris you prooooobably discovered it a long time ago. We also cover pleasure techiniques, play a lil game and get personal . Basically, this episode is here to help encourage more orgasms for all bleeders. Go on and get comfortable, keep your vibe nearby and hit play! Books discussed in this episode: She Comes First by Ian Kerner Vagina Obscrua by Rachel E. Gross Bonk by Mary Roach Your Sexual Health by Dr. Kate White (friend of the pod!!)

    113 - What's Pappening
    Mar 13 2025
    In this month's episode, Kate prepped some incredible bleedsearch for us all about PAP SMEARS. If you've ever wondered what the hell your gyno is doing up there, why it's important, who developed this test, who was married to the doctor who developed this test and what else was going on in the world when they were first taking a lil scrapper to cervixes... well, this episode covers it all. And like you have to ask, but yes - there is absolutely a song in this episode. So pop some speculums into your ear holes and hit play. (Don't have tiny speculums? Earbuds should also work fine.)

    112 - oh hi
    Feb 14 2025
    hey, hello there, hi. We're so excited to be back and venting about the state of the world while also dealing with having a uterus! (...excited might be the wrong would, but we digress...) For our first episode of the season, we're doing a lot of catch-ups: we fill you in on the last 2.5 years of our lives, cover some newsy-doozies (lol there have been so many) and have a song or two for you to enjoy — because even though time has passed, we're still, deep down, some surprise-song-lovin blosts. Recommended activity for while you listen: find some fabric scraps, a needle and thread and sew some cute reusable pads for when the government inevitably makes period products (and periods themselves) illegal. :) <3 You can watch AJ+'s Peabody-award winning doc (produced by our very own Kate Elston), One Day in Hebron, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEdGcej-6D0 // Check out the secure abortion chatbot we talked about in this epidose here: chatwithcharley.org.

    Feb 6 2025
    Your eyes do not decieve - we're back! We took an *extended* meno-pause after our last episode in Sept of 2022, but with the country crumbling around us, we thought: why not scream into the void with mics?! Keep an eye out for our first episode of season seven, dropping soon.

    111 - Ten Important Abortions in TV & Film History Pt. 2
    Sep 16 2022
    It's our last episode of the season and part two of our deep dive into 10 sometimes scary, often funny, and always meaningful abortions on screen. This episode is fully set in the 2010's, and we get into some of our favorite shows: CW darlings Jane the Virgin and Crazy-Ex Girlfriend, Shonda's soapy magnum opus Scandal, animated delight BoJack Horseman and thoughtful, funny Netflix original Dear White People. We also have our final Why I Cried of the season (featuring a blistener's submitted musical accompaniment!) and a surprise song because why not!? Thank you for joining us for season 6, dear blisteners. We loved making it for you. Enjoy this episode and PLEASE VOTE IN NOVEMBER FOR CANDIDATES WHO SUPPORT BODILY AUTONOMY FOR BLEEDERS AND TRANS PEOPLE! Much love, the VC gals. <3

    110 - Ten Important Abortions in TV & Film History Pt. 1
    Sep 14 2022
    We had such a blast when we covered periods on television, so we knew we HAD to get into how abortions have been portrayed on screen. We cover a century of TV shows and films, and talk about some of our favorites, some of the funniest, and one of the creepiest movies we've ever seen. In part one, we run the gamut, from a 1916 silent film, a show from 2012 set in the 50's, and a 90's classic. Enjoy this ep, and catch part two (and our final episode of the season) later this week! <3
