NEW YORK — Some stars known for their work on screen – Ted Danson, Woody Harrelson and Jon Stewart – are entering the world of podcasts.
Danson and Harrelson have signed on to “Where Everybody Knows Your Name with Ted Danson and Woody Harrelson (Sometimes),” which will be released June 12 on SiriusXM.
The title, of course, is a reference to their years together on the NBC sitcom “Cheers” and the fact that Harrelson’s role was more limited. He will be with Danson “when he can find him,” SiriusXM said.
The podcast will consist of conversations with names like Will Arnett, Kristen Bell, Laura Dern, Jane Fonda, Conan O’Brien, Nick Offerman and others.
Stewart, who returned to Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show” earlier this year to host once a week, will host a podcast called “The Weekly Show,” according to Comedy Central. The launch is scheduled for the beginning of June.
The podcast seems like an extension of the television program, with guests and in-depth topics, according to a description from MTV Entertainment Studios & Paramount Media Networks.
“After much thought, meditation and prayer, I decided to extend my work week to two days,” Stewart said.
