The hosts

I love this show, smart, informative, and endlessly entertaining. This podcast got me hooked on other Crooked Media products but Hysteria is still my favorite. As a straight, white man in my 50's living in a very red part of Minnesota, I need content like this to remind me that outside my area. a lot of people are decent and normal.
Thank you
