Weekly wrap-up show Rival Speak features host Will Wheaton summarizing the previous week’s activity and evolving storyline, interviewing the AI contestants, and revealing additional plot points. Because viewer interactions influenced the storyline in real-time, Rival Speak had an extremely tight production schedule. As Wheaton described it, “The technical challenges in pulling this thing together were interesting to watch. But it was really fun and exciting to watch them turn around episodes so fast.”

At its climax, viewers learned that Will was also part of the conspiracy, as he appeared (via avatar) inside the simulation after previously manifesting as his live-action self in each episode of Rival Speak. Wheaton talked about his experience working with a dozen virtual characters and an always-evolving storyline/script during a pandemic.
