In this episode of Midnight Local, Greg and Meredith discuss the TV show Veep and its parallels to real-world politics. They share their impressions of the show, including the shaky camera style and the unlikeable characters. They also discuss the dynamics of dysfunctional office environments and the chaos that comes with working in politics. The conversation touches on the authenticity of political shows and the balance between dialogue-heavy and visually-driven storytelling. The conversation explores the themes of cinema, musical theater, sitcoms, and the influence of media on our lives. It touches on the idea that the camera should speak more than the dialogue in films, and how musical theater can convey plot points through songs. The hosts discuss the similarities between sitcoms and real life, and how people often see their own lives reflected in these shows. They also delve into the concept of leading men in Hollywood and the changing landscape of stardom. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the vice presidential picks and the role of money in politics.
