The hit sitcom Cheers is getting a new life in podcast form with two of the show's stars, Ted Danson & Woody Harrelson, in a new show called Where Everybody Knows Your Name with Ted Danson & Woody Harrelson (Sometimes). The new podcast will be home to SiriusXM and produced by Conan O'Brien & his Team Coco podcast network.
Since wrapping up the beloved comedy series three decades ago, life has taken both of the actors into different directions without much time to connect between now and then. And through this show, they're using this podcast as a place to "dig beyond the career highlights" and a "chance to reconnect, both with each other and the amazing friends they’ve each met over the decades." Like the title says, this is a place to be known.
Some of the guests set to be featured this first season include Eric Andre, Will Arnett, Kristen Bell, Laura Dern, Jane Fonda, Simu Liu, Megan Mullally, Conan O’Brien, Nick Offerman, Martin Short, Mary Steenburgen, and more.
What they're saying about the new Cheers podcast.
“Though I’ve always dreaded small talk at a cocktail party, I’ve found that it is a genuine privilege to sit down with someone for a deep, uninterrupted conversation. With this podcast, we’ll do just that,” said Ted Danson. “And that I get to do it with Woody, my dear friend of many decades, is the cherry on top of the sundae. Each week, we’ll reflect on our own friendship and careers, and get to the core of the special guests who join us. I can’t wait for you to listen.”
“The best part about doing this podcast is that it’s given me an excuse to hang out with Ted,” said Woody Harrelson. “Sure we’ll talk with interesting guests, and sure we’ll share some laughs along the way, but the biggest win will be rekindling our romance, I mean friendship, after all this time. And I’m glad listeners will be able to join us for that.”
“Throughout their storied careers, Ted Danson and Woody Harrelson have shown the world that their skill sets extend well beyond any one medium,” added Adam Sachs, SVP of Podcast Content at SiriusXM. “With the launch of Where Everybody Knows Your Name, fans will get to experience a whole new side of these incredible talents through candid, insightful, and always funny conversations with some of today’s most interesting and accomplished people. We couldn’t be any more excited to welcome them to the SiriusXM family, and look forward to sharing what they have in store.”
