Political commentator and comedy writer Erin Ryan and former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Alyssa Mastromonaco are joined by a bicoastal squad of funny, opinionated women to talk through everything from reproductive rights to romcoms. They break down the political news of the week, plus the topics, trends, and cultural stories that affect women’s lives. New episodes drop every Thursday. Get in touch: hysteria@crooked.com.

Please support Mary Peltola in Alaska. She's got a shot! Talarico is the best. Ossoff too

I think Talarico is good, but I'd have rather had Jasmine Crockett.

So many TFG….Kimberly Guilfoyle, DJTJ, Rudy Giuliani, Michael Cohen (mainly for his torpedoing of his testimony against Trump), anyone and everyone at Fox. Ok, I’ll stop for now but sadly the list of TFG appears endless.

Roger Stone, Nick Fuentes/Ben Shapiro/Matt Walsh, Joe Rogan

We should not have to learn hacks so as to distinguish if it's a bot or not. Youir ridiculous government should regulate them!

Itis really important to know who is funded by dark money. Including "media" sources, like Brian Tyler Cohen. Why do people need to take dark money? Why can't we know who is funding and who has the agenda. Just google who you are listening to as a way of avoiding manipulation.

13:00 How are you Two White women forgetting about the oppression by reflex of American Arabs after 9-11. The only people who seem to have forgotten about it fast than you are Arab-American business owners who want more money and will believe anything even After their whole government turned on them once in their lives. Small Business owners across all ethnicities have a mental blind spot.

Living in CA, I am 39 this year and retired. Last month alone, I made $185k, but the moment that made me cry wasn't the money – it was seeing my whole family around one dinner table after everything we survived together. There were years I truly thought life was over for me. Keep fighting. Your current situation can change in one season….

I find it sad that even very bright ladies like these are associated with this incredibly stupid and completely counterproductive culture of “destroying/owning/schooling” ppl etc. It fires nothing but polarise, divide and platform zero discussion centred in finding common ground.

After witnessing tens of millions of magas vote Dump in for a second time, i can never be confident about them seeing how bad someone is and voting against.

I agree completely with the positoins here, but it also seems like an SNL skit where cast members have to read the news without moving anything but their mouth and where their eyes look. The botox is a bit out of control here.

How can you two smart and well-informed peepz believe this bizarre Ukraine bot story? To think that Ukraine has bombed so many servers that the number of bots on the internet is noticeably down is just insane.
But then again maybe I am just a bot spreading anti-WW3 propaganda lol.

The anti talarico ads here in tx are telling everyone he will trans children on demand and wants a state income tax. That is bad. They will run red.

I did not know who Kacey Musgraves was other than her name, but she definitely showed me who she IS with that retort

What is wrong with republicans? They seem to want to win at all costs: truth be dammed, screw the greater good, whats in it for me?
What came first their ignorance or their greed? Two traits that pretty much define Right-Wing Authoritarians? That and never questioning authority.
