Summary

Samantha Bee joins Hysteria to talk reproductive health funding, special elections, and the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. They don’t feel bad for criticizing Kristi Noem’s outfits, and they do feel a little bad that Elise Stefanik lost her cabinet position. Sam also gets in touch with her Canadian roots and gives the inside perspective on how America’s craziness is affecting our neighbors to the North. Then comedian Kiran Deol chats with Alyssa about some more hopeful, uplifting news stories. They wrap up with a Sanity Corner discussion of Shen Yun and figure skating.

0:00.0	Hysterius brought to you by Quince. I personally am so sick of winter, I can't wait to just get out there and take a trip someplace warm, but I couldn't because the wheel fell off of my old suitcase. So what did I do? I treated myself to a first class quality suitcase at a great price from Quince. It just arrived, and now all I have to do is book my ticket, because vacation season is
0:25.7	nearly upon us.
0:26.5	This year, I'm treating myself to the lux upgrades I deserve with Quince's high-quality
0:30.9	travel essentials at fair prices.
0:33.3	Think of lightweight European linen styles from $30, washable silk tops, and comfy lounge sets,
0:38.5	with premium luggage options and stylish tote bags to carry all.
0:42.0	The best part, all Quince items are priced 50 to 80% less than similar brands.
0:47.1	By partnering directly with top factories, Quince cuts out the cost of the middleman and passes the savings onto us.
0:52.3	And Quince only works with factories that use safe,
0:55.4	ethical, and responsible manufacturing practices and premium fabrics and finishes. I love that.
1:02.5	So first, suitcase is here. Now I just have to figure out where I'm going. Might be a quick
1:08.6	trip to L.A. because a change of scenery is better than nothing at all.
1:12.9	If you can't do a week in Tulum, maybe you can go visit some friends in California. So I'm going to pack my
1:18.4	suitcase with my Quinn's cardigan, which is good for the plane. It's good for when you get there. It's good for day.
1:24.4	It's good for chilly nights. It's good for everything. It is my go-to staple, whether I'm at home or hitting the road.
1:30.8	So for your next trip, treat yourself to the lux upgrades you deserve from Quince.

1:54.3	Hello and welcome to Hysteria. I'm Alyssa Master Monaco. And I am Samantha Bee.
2:03.4	Sam B. We're going to talk about our fave neighbor to the north a bit later today. So I have a question for you.
2:10.6	What is your favorite Canadian delicacy? It is difficult for me to pick just one.
