Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO late night series real time with Bill Maugh.

I know you're excited because there's no 23. I can't, I even can't. There's 23 people running for the democratic nomination for president.

Guys, the Me Too movement does not mean you're running Me Too.

It's 23, the Blasio and the Monta... I can't. Or maybe it's a clever scheme to win in 2020 because the Russians won't know who to hack.

Their law bans abortion even in cases of rape and incest. How else are you supposed to get pregnant now, Alabama?

Gentle good humor. That's what we do here. Gentle good humor.

But I tell you, liberals are not taking any of this lying down. They know how to fight back at the Republicans with a hashtag.

Really, they have a hashtag now, boycott Alabama, which is great if you're a frequent purchaser of fried green tomatoes or meth.
