By the time we’re releasing this we may know who won the American Presidential election, so we thought Aaron Sorkin’s The American President was a perfect choice for this week’s episode. It also happens to be having a 25th anniversary which seemed even more of a reason to deep dive into this film.
Timmy St.Sauver is a lifelong friend of Rob’s and has been on the pod numerous times. We know he’s a lover of everything Sorkin and it was a no-brainer choosing him for this special election episode.
We end with a fun Imitation Game and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 Favorite Movie Presidents.
No matter who wins this election, let’s all just be thankful that we won’t have to deal with another one for another 4 years...
Enjoy!
