    Why Are We Taking These Conservative Freaks Seriously?

    In this solo episode of B*tch, Listen, Imani Gandy argues that the best political humor doesn’t just get laughs—it changes what people think deserves respect. From The Daily Show to Abortion Access Front’s campaign against Anthony Comstock to Tim Walz calling Republicans weird, Gandy explores how satire can strip bad-faith politics of the seriousness it never deserved. Because sometimes the point isn’t to win the argument. Sometimes the point is to ask why we were treating these freaks like serious people in the first place. Expert Repro Journalism That Inspires.

    (Classic) The Constitution: A Scam by Rich White Men, for Rich White Men

    The Constitution isn’t sacred—it’s a sham that pretends to be about equality but actually only benefits white men in power. In this classic episode, Imani Gandy talks with best-selling author Elie Mystal about why the Constitution has never worked for Black people, how the Supreme Court weaponizes it to strip people of their rights, and what it would look like to scrap it and start over.

    Elizabeth Booker Houston: Just a Bitch with a Phone and Thoughts About Abortion Rights

    In the last episode of B*tch, Listen, Imani Gandy laid out her theory that the reproductive rights movement made a critical mistake in running public health and legal strategies around abortion access on parallel tracks.  In this episode, Gandy talks through her theory with Elizabeth Booker Houston—a seasoned legal and public health expert, and educator. Booker Houston and Gandy break down how race played into that decision and why losing the Chevron deference standard was also the repro rights movement’s fault. Expert Repro Journalism That Inspires.

    If ‘Roe’ Was Never Enough, Why Was It Everything?

    Roe v. Wade was never enough. Reproductive justice advocates have been saying that for decades. So why did so much of the reproductive rights movement organize itself around protecting Roe anyway?  In this solo episode, Imani Gandy explores how legal arguments became the center of the fight for abortion rights, what got lost in the process, and why public health researchers and reproductive justice advocates were often telling a different story. From Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' anti-abortion roadmap in  Box v. Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky  to the public health findings of the Turnaway Study, this episode asks what happens when a movement builds itself around a court decision—and what is left when that decision is gone.

    Blair Imani on What Actually Changes Institutions

    In this week’s episode of B*tch, Listen, Imani Gandy taps political educator Blair Imani to answer that question.  The pair discuss whether online political education actually moves institutions, or just moves the people who already agree. Blair, who created the viral series Smarter in Seconds, has reached millions of people and seen real policy changed. So naturally, she had thoughts. And they complicated some of Imani's assumptions—in the best way. Expert Repro Journalism That Inspires.

    We Did the Reading. Fascism Came Anyway.

    The most informed progressive public in American history is watching a fascist takeover in real time. In her first solo episode, Imani Gandy wants to know why. From Black Twitter to the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act dying in the Senate twice, she builds the argument—and then pokes holes in it herself. She doesn't have a clean answer. That's why she's asking. Correction: In this episode I state that New York cut a billion dollars from the police budget — they pledged to cut a billion but ultimately cut approximately half a million. I also state that Los Angeles boosted its budget by 3 percent after cutting 150 million — the actual increase was closer to 6 percent. The broader point stands: both cities reversed course.   Expert Repro Journalism That Inspires.

    Dateline’s Josh Mankiewicz Takes You Inside the True Crime Machine

    In part two of her series on true crime and disability, Imani Gandy interviews Dateline correspondent Josh Mankiewicz about true crime as a machine that decides whose stories get told—and whose don’t. From missing Black women, to missing and murdered Indigenous people, to the near invisibility of disabled victims, they talk about what true crime shows—and what it leaves out. Because attention itself is a form of power. (And yes, there’s a Bill Hader moment.) Expert Repro Journalism That Inspires.
