Hello and hysteria. I'm Erin Ryan. This week, Kirund Deal, Dana Schwartz, and Tand Tran join me in studio

to talk about the invisible work that women do. And why Charlotte's Web is kind of bullshit.

Plus, Alyssa Master Monaco calls in to discuss why likeability is the least likeable way to assess the women running for the 2020 Democratic nomination.

And as always, the Hills Will die on. Hey everybody,

thanks for tuning in first, a little housekeeping.

If you have a hill that you will die on,

record a 30 second

voice memo and send it to hysteria at crooked.com.

You can also contact us to that email address if you'd otherwise like to get in touch.

But remember that I'm not the only one who checks it.

There are a few people who read the messages there.

So send personalized love notes and hate mail elsewhere, please. Hi. You have a theme song which I've told you about before and now I associate it with you. When I get text from you like just on my phone in my

free time I picture the theme song playing so it's a it's a shame you can't hear it on your

end because it's very apropos.

Okay, so here's something that we were planning on talking about for a while and I think we keep putting

it off for a combination of the fact that things keep happening that we have to talk about that are more

urgent like what was happening in Georgia and now what's happening in other states.

And also this is such a, I don't know, I feel like the topic is a little bit of drudgery because we spend so much

time thinking about it and being annoyed by it and that's a female candidate likeability.

Like them, love them. What do we do? Yeah, so like-ability is a barometer, an invisible barometer by which people measure female candidates only on whether or not they can ever be elected to office or deserve love, I guess, likeability, loveability.

And it's something that I've noticed people are paying more critical attention

to this cycle around, but they're still kind of throwing around this kind of dog whistle-like ability
