Hall of Presidents | Next At Bat: Episode Sixty


Listen Later

The Hall of Presidents (Will Roberts, Jeff Gyllen, and Michael Renner) discuss how their non-parody genre form developed from an exercise doing impressions. The talk about how their common interests not only has created a group mind, but has also contributed to the incredible specificity in the mythology of the world they continue to build with each show. They weigh how much of a character based on a historical figure should be based on actual facts versus invention, how it’s actually easier to share focus in group scenes with a small group versus a large group, and the way to create well-rounded villains by focusing on their ignorance instead of their stupidity. They also reference a bunch of old Next At Bat episodes, and share a lot of trivia about presidents.

Also, the Presidents battle anti-vaccine zombie queen, Jenny McCarthy.
