Former Cheers cast members Ted Danson and Woody Harrelson are reuniting for a new podcast.
Appropriately called “Where Everybody Knows Your Name,” after the legendary sitcom, the series will see Danson and Harrelson sit down for a “freewheeling exchange of laughter and wisdom” with guests that include Conan O’Brien, Will Arnett, Laura Dern, Jane Fonda, Martin Short, Nick Offerman, Kristen Bell, Simu Liu, Eric Andre, Mary Steenburgen, Megan Mullally, and others.
“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 Danson in a statement. “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,” added 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.”
“Where Everybody Knows Your Name” will premiere beginning June 12th. The series is produced by Team Coco and Sirius XM.
