Peter Grosz, who played the iconic callous oil lobbyist Sidney Purcell, joins Matt and Tim as they recap Episode 4: “Chung”. SYNOPSIS: Dan and Amy attend a book launch for Gov. Danny Chung, a charismatic Asian-American war hero, who Selina worries could be a political threat. Following an interview on Meet the Press, a slip of the tongue by Selina is misconstrued as a racist dig at Gov. Chung. The VP and her team go into recovery mode, trying to take the spotlight off Selina by visiting the sick and injured at a local hospital. Peter talks about how there were a lot of rehearsals despite the show relying heavily on improvisation - the cast had to quickly get used to trying out things on set that ultimately didn’t make the cut.  Subscribe and leave us a review with 5 stars and you'll be entered into a raffle to win a Veep Funko Doll signed by Matt and Tim!

Today we’re joined by the one and only Tony Hale, who played Gary Walsh on Veep! Together, Matt, Tim, and Tony go through Episode 2 of Veep: “Frozen Yoghurt”. SYNOPSIS: The Veep's office is revived by good news that her task force is likely to be green lit. With the President (conveniently) out of the country, Selina looks to make headway on filibuster reform and meeting with some 'normal' people. A health scare temporarily allows Selina to be commander-in-chief but delays her plan for a media meet-and-greet at the local yoghurt store. Tony talks about how nervous he was going into the show and that he constantly thought he was about to get fired and replaced. They share how they found comedy in camaraderie even while feeling like they were thrown into the thick of it.

Join friends and Veep co-stars Matt Walsh and Timothy Simons for a weekly comedy podcast where they dive into a rewatch the Matt and Tim way -- beginning with the question, “what is memory? And is what we remember actually what happened?” They’ll also unpack the question “what’s it like to be two supporting actors on Veep as well as in their real lives in Hollywood.” So Veep fans feel free to ask your questions, leave your comments, and if you’re lucky, you may even win a free tuxedo. Expect expert interviews, cast and crew drop-ins, and commentary on politics so ridiculous, it might seem fake on a comedy show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
