Ending Violence Against Women with Buck Blodgett of The LOVE>hate Project

A woman and a young girl are posing together in a room lit with green lighting. The woman, wearing glasses and a patterned top, stands behind the girl, who is wearing a black dress and pearl necklace, and has one arm raised while resting her chin on her other hand. They both smile at the camera. The background features a bed and wall art. The image is framed with a light blue border and has the text “15 minutes with FUZZ” in large yellow and white letters overlaying the bottom portion of the photo.

***TRIGGER WARNING***

On this episode, Buck Blodgett describes the manner in which his daughter was sexually assaulted and murdered. If you find this type of content disturbing or triggering, please do not listen to this episode.

I have marked this episode as “explicit.” While there is no explicit language in this episode, I wanted to provide extra warning as this content is not typical of Fifteen Minutes with Fuzz.

In July 2013, Jessie Blodgett, daughter of Buck and Joy Blodgett, was murdered in her Hartford, Wis. home by someone she considered a friend.

In the following months, Buck formed an organization called, The LOVE>hate Project. The mission of the organization is “Ending male on female violence. Inspiring love over hate.”

Buck works to educate students, businesses, organizations, prisoners, and other communities to “educate, inspire and motivate” them “to be resilient, end violence, and choose love.”

On this episode, Buck shares Jessie’s story and teaches us about The Love is Greater Than Hate Project.
