Pete Davidson Will Host His Own Weekly Video Podcast in His Garage

Netflix launches two original video podcasts with comedian Pete Davidson and NFL Hall of Famer Michael Irvin to expand exclusive content and compete in the podcast market.

  • On Wednesday, Jan. 14, 2026, Netflix announced two original video podcasts hosted by Michael Irvin, NFL Hall of Famer and analyst, and Pete Davidson, comedian and former Saturday Night Live cast member, with premieres set for Jan. 19 and Jan. 30.
  • After striking licensing deals, Netflix partnered with major talent agencies last year and secured an iHeartRadio package covering 15 shows plus creators like Bill Simmons.
  • Pete Davidson will film the series primarily in his garage and release weekly Friday episodes featuring candid conversations, produced by Marc Lieberman and Ayala Cohen and directed by Sarah Brennan Kolb.
  • Netflix will stream The Pete Davidson Show and The White House with Michael Irvin exclusively, not appearing in full on the Apple podcast app or YouTube, marking its first original streamer-produced podcasts.
  • Facing YouTube's dominance, Netflix attempts to challenge with deals like The Ringer and Barstool Sports, aiming to reach over 700 million hours of podcast viewing per month in 2025, Irvin said, `In a crowded media landscape, recognition matters  and few names carry the same immediate weight.
