Jim AcostaGUEST
And so I do think that despite his declining faculties and wanting to put snipers on top of arches and things like that, things that sound One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, that there is a crafty side to him, and he does want to stop what is coming, and that is accountability on the part of the American people.
Jim AcostaGUEST
And today over at the White House with the pool banding together, thank goodness we saw that, Nicolle, because what, what transpired looked like an episode of Veep.
Jim AcostaGUEST
There was video clips-
Nicolle WallaceHOST
Mm-hmm
CaitlinHOST
This guy, this comedian, Zach Woods, he was on The Office.
CaitlinHOST
He was on Veep.
CaitlinHOST
And he does the funniest.
CaitlinHOST
Who was he on Veep? I fucking love that show.
CaitlinHOST
He was a very small character on Veep.
RachaelHOST
Okay.
CaitlinHOST
Like he was Amy's boyfriend or something or for like a brief.
Carlos LozadaGUEST
Except that one, the one that everyone remembers.
Carlos LozadaGUEST
And it's like All the King's Men meets Veep.
Carlos LozadaGUEST
It's like one of these great books about what it's like to write for a guy that you don't respect at all.
Carlos LozadaGUEST
And that the job isn't to write soaring prose that will impress everyone.
MasonGUEST
Most of the time, the problems are that they can't quite get the votes that they want or suddenly the government's running out of funding.
MasonGUEST
Or in the case of like a TV show like Veep, someone said something they shouldn't have in front of a bunch of people and now they don't look as good as they want to look.
MasonGUEST
And the resistance system felt like a lot better of a mechanical system to sort of bring those types of narrative beats home mechanically.
Elliot DavisHOST
And then, I mean, on top of the resistance system, you've also introduced some original mechanics for capturing this political scheming.
Dee ReddyGUEST
He played that sort of hapless young guy, Ollie, in In the Thick of It.
Dee ReddyGUEST
He also directed Veep.
Dee ReddyGUEST
for a number of series, if not all of it.
Dee ReddyGUEST
So he has huge comedic chops himself.

Jakob KolnessGUEST
Yeah.
Jakob KolnessGUEST
It always bothered me that like Julia Louis-Dreyfus won every Emmy for Veep except for the last season.
Jakob KolnessGUEST
Oh, my God.
Jakob KolnessGUEST
And she almost had a clean sweep and she didn't get there, which it went to Phoebe Waller-Bridge for Fleabag, which is
Jakob KolnessGUEST
And it's just not there.
Jakob KolnessGUEST
It's just it's it's it's hard to look at.
Nick PalodichukHOST
I caught on to Veep a little bit late because I thought it was a little bit like West Wing comedy, but the setting's kind of the same, but it has a different tone than kind of like a West Wing.
Nick PalodichukHOST
I caught on a little too late, and I was like, now I had to go back to watch it, but I really like
Simple JoeHOST
Remember that? That's Gary Cole.
Simple JoeHOST
Yeah, he was also in the West Wing and Veep, and I think recently he's NCIS.
Simple JoeHOST
But that's Gary Cole, man.
Simple JoeHOST
He's that guy from that swarmy manager guy with the suspenders from Office Space.
Robbie BettelonHOST
All
Wes DavenportHOST
right, last one, Veep.
Robbie BettelonHOST
I haven't seen it, but I know about it.

I've seen clips, like funny clips, tying things to whatever's going on today.

My guest this week is an eight-time Emmy winner and 16-time nominee for his work on Saturday Night Live, The Simpsons, and Veep.
Ian FermaglichHOST
He's also written for National Lampoon Magazine, Army Man, Not Necessarily the News, and Beavis and Butthead Do the Universe.
Ian FermaglichHOST
He's probably best well known for writing the Hanukkah song with Adam Sandler and two of my personal favorite Simpsons episodes, The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson and Trash of the Titans.
Ian Maxtone-GrahamGUEST
Well, that's a nice intro.
Ian Maxtone-GrahamGUEST
I also just want to throw out there, there were three of us who wrote the Hanukkah song.
Ian Maxtone-GrahamGUEST
It was Lou Morton, who I've worked with on other things, a very, very good friend, worked with him on Veep as well.
Ian Maxtone-GrahamGUEST
Lou Morton and Adam Sandler and me, the three of us.
Ian Maxtone-GrahamGUEST
And by the way, I tried to pull Dave in.
