”Fundraiser” (S1E1) Veep Rewatch with Matt and Tim

Welcome to Second in Command: A Veep Rewatch podcast! On today’s episode our hosts Matt Walsh and Tim Simons dive deep into the pilot episode “Fundraiser."

SYNOPSIS: VP Selina Meyer wants to make the implementation of a Clean Jobs Commission her main legacy but a Tweet from a staffer annoys the plastics industry. She later makes an offensive joke at a fundraiser and her chief of staff accidentally signs her own name on a condolence card for the wife of a senator who just died.

Matt and Tim discuss what it was like on their first day on set and how improvisation played a key role in character development and finding comedic beats within the environment.
