On this week’s special members-only bonus episode, Sonny explains why President Thomas Whitmore is not only the greatest movie president of all time, he’s the greatest Republican movie president of all time. Alyssa explains why the president in Love Actually helps reveal how silly that movie is. And Peter picks a TV show president, naturally.
