Pete Davidson to Host Netflix’s First Original Video Podcast from His Garage
Pete Davidson, former *Saturday Night Live* star, is launching *The Pete Davidson Show*, Netflix’s first original video podcast, premiering on January 30. The show will feature candid, no-holds-barred conversations, primarily filmed in Davidson’s garage, which he describes as “where all the best conversations happen.” The podcast will be released weekly and occasionally take show on the road. Davidson has previously collaborated with Netflix on comedy specials including *Pete Davidson: Turbo Fonzarelli* and *Pete Davidson: Alive from New York*, and hosted *Pete Davidson Presents: The Best Friends*. The podcast is produced by Marc Lieberman of Above Average and directed by Sarah Brennan Kolb. Davidson expressed that returning to Netflix felt right, as it was the home of one of his first stand-up specials. The move into podcasts aligns with Netflix’s broader strategy to expand into original and exclusive audio-visual content, including deals with other prominent podcasters like Bill Simmons and Barstool Sports. The show aims to offer a relaxed, humorous platform for Davidson and his friends to discuss anything and everything, with episodes dropping weekly from his garage setting.
