WATCH: Chuck Todd, Jake Tapper Join Joel McHale on The Soup

With Joel McHale set to host this Saturday night’s White House Correspondents Dinner, he decided to take his E! show The Soup down to Washington, D.C. for a special political-themed episode Wednesday night. Joining McHale will be rival cable news anchors Chuck Todd from MSNBC and Jake Tapper from CNN.

Both anchors hyped up their appearances on Twitter, with Todd retweeting a photo of him on the set with Tapper and Scandal’s Katie Lowes:
