Welcome to FAKE PRESIDENTS, a real podcast about, well...you know. Each week we'll take a deep dive into a fictional American president from movies and TV to see just how much fiction there really is.

Jul 1, 2023

Ben and Eric are doing something they've never done before -- covering a TV series as it airs in (near) real time!

But first, they got some more FOR ALL MANKIND stuff to talk about, now that Ben has FINALLY seen the show.

THEN they just had to dive back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe when they saw that the MCU was introducing yet ANOTHER fake president. The POTUS is not William Sadler from IRON MAN 3. It's not Harrison Ford from the upcoming THUNDERBOLTS and CAPTAIN AMERICA movies. It's... Dermot Mulroney (NOT Dylan McDermott)!

Can Sam Jackson's Nick Fury stop an army of shapeshifting aliens from replacing world leaders and starting a global thermal nuclear war to destroy all (human) life on Earth?  Do the politics of the superheroes & alien-saturated MCU have any resemblance to the real world anymore? Is the POTUS really a lizard person in disguise?!

Let's see what we can suss out...
