HBO Max published this video item, entitled “Michael Showalter and Michaela Watkins in “Truth & Lying” | Search Party: The Podcast | HBO Max” – below is their description.
The lines between truth and lies constantly blur on Search Party — and on this episode of the podcast, Michael Showalter explains how Dory’s inner reality is actually a conduit for the ways in which we lie to ourselves. Host Bowen Yang also helps unpack the motivations for those lies and how people can get rewarded for bad behavior both in our society and on the show. “I really wanted Polly to win because I want the truth to mean something,” says Michaela Watkins, who plays tough-as-nails prosecutor Polly Danzinger, about the outcome of the trial and the parallels it has with the larger cultural moment. There are also plenty of laughs — specifically, when it comes to the infamous “pancake” moment of the courtroom scene, which Watkins thinks is the funniest joke she’s ever read in a script.
