The couple's daughters, Vivian, 18, and Georgette, 14, also play roles in the podcast.

The podcast is an eight-episode scripted series written by Falcone that premieres October 25th.

“When an evil force threatens to set fire to the fantastic land of Golgorath, it is up to Hildy the Barback and her friends to pedal on a comedic epic mission to save the world,” the official logline begins.

“Oh – plus there are a lot of dragons,” it ends on a humorous note.

Janney voices the role of Gorwan the Dragon, McHale is Dre-ell the usurper, Rash is Drith and Spencer is the announcer.

'When Ben suggested Hildy, the Barback and the Lake of Fire to meHe said: “It's a medieval comedy where you fight dragons and an evil wizard while still running the family tavern, and deals with themes like sexually narcissistic centaurs,” she said.

“I said, 'This is going to look amazing!' And he said, 'No, it's a podcast/radio play, so you're just going to hear it. Also, every episode will have an original song, so it will be a tremendous amount of work and we will be lucky to break even.”

“I looked at my husband and said, ‘That sounds crazy. I'm in!” “So we enlisted some of our talented friends and Hildy was born,” said The Hollywood Reporter.

On GMA, Falcone admitted that the idea came from his obsession with “all things dragons.”
