Mar 16, 2025
We’re phoning it in this week (in a good way) with guest host Ian Brodsky joining Chris to review the premier-slash-return of John Mulaney’s old-school Hollywood talk show meets… talk radio call-in show? We’ll explain what’s going on with Netflix’s latest foray into weekly live programming: Everybody’s Live with John Mulaney.
But first!
- HBO delivers a belated eulogy for The Franchise…
- … while Danny McBride delivers a surprise period piece for the Righteous Gemstones season opener (featuring a legitimately surprising guest star).
- Sportspocalypse returns with exciting news from your Olympics overlords at NBCUniversal.
- Netflix trounces the competition in the latest Nielsen streaming numbers…
