HBO announced Thursday that “Pod Save America,” a podcast produced by alumni of the Obama campaign and administration, would be moving to the network in a series of hour-long specials.

Thank pod. ?

The show will feature Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau, senior advisor Dan Pfeiffer, Tommy “Dude, Benghazi was two years ago” Vietor, and Jon Lovett.

The announcement certainly has people talking.

This looks like a podcast about how to fold sweaters properly at the Gap. https://t.co/koeDATS0IO

You know, I'm starting to understand what people mean when they say "white privilege." https://t.co/0dRDcqtGrz

I was worried that they weren't going to have another program with an all white cast. https://t.co/TMfGuDiQB0
