This week, Victoria and Kristen are joined by West Wing fangirl and fellow podcaster Claire Handscombe! She’s so much of a fan that she credits the show as a major reason she moved from Europe to Washington, D.C. So how does a drama about American politics and the intricacies of the White House attract fans from across the pond? Claire shares her own story and those of other fans, which she compiled into an anthology called Walk With Us: How the West Wing Changed Our Lives. And that’s not Claire’s only book; her upcoming novel Unscripted highlights the fangirl dream of making your fave fall in love with you. She knows a thing or two about that last bit - Claire spills all the details on how she scored a lunch date with her onscreen crush Bradley Whitford!
Claire is also the host of the Brit Lit Podcast, where she gives all the news in British books and publishing.
