It was great to hear Jane Coaston this morning! I hope she’s on the short list to replace Alyssa.

Love Hysteria and of course we all miss you, Alyssa. With that said, I loved hearing Melissa Murray on this week and Leigh McGowan last week. Would love to hear either of them regularly filling Alyssa’s seat.
