Production

In May 7, 2015, The Doubleclicks sought funding for the album via the crowd-funding site Kickstarter, asking for $30,000. In June 2, 2015, the Kickstarter campaign ended with $55,535 from 1,282 backers. Kickstarter rewards include a coloring book and a tabletop role-playing game called Fiasco. In an interview with OregonLive.com's David Greenwald, Angela Webber says "[i]t's the most honest and personal stuff we've put out, it's not all funny and it's not all nerdy."

Tour

In October 17, 2015, The Doubleclicks performed at Zappcon in Fresno, California. In August 16, 2016, it was announced that both The Doubleclicks and Lucia Fasano would begin their tour Snakes On The Radio in the cities Santa Clara, California, Oakland, California, Burbank, California, West Hollywood, California, and Portland, Oregon. The Doubleclicks said they would play both their old songs and newer songs from their latest album President Snakes. Lucia Fasano would play songs from their debut album Radio Silence.

Reception

In anticipation of the new album, many publications wrote favorably of the band. GeekDad's Jonathan H. Liu stated "[t]he Doubleclicks are a GeekDad favorite." The Mary Sue's Teresa Jusino said "[w]e love the geek girl sounds of The Doubleclicks, and we know you do, too!" Portland Tribune's Pamplin Media Group has called their music "funny, sweet and insightful songs about dinosaurs, cats, Netflix, space and the Dungeons and Dragons game."

In September 12, 2015, President Snakes debuted at #4 on Billboard's Comedy Albums chart and moved to #2 the following week.
