As celebrity podcasts continue to take over your favorite streaming apps, yet another has entered the zeitgeist.
Nick Cannon is launching a new relationship-based podcast named Nick Cannon @ Night .
It will be a remix of the old call-in for advice format, where listeners are invited to ask for advice in his DMs, and he'll do deep dives on topics once in front of the mic.
While he was married to Mariah Carey for eight years, Cannon has 12 kids with six different women, so it's safe to say he knows a lot about relationships, so his takes should be interesting at the least.
'When it comes to his personal life, Nick has never shied away, unapologetically leaving the world curious about his views on dating, fatherhood, and modern relationships. So, who better to offer advice?' the press release states.
He'll also have actual experts chime in on different relationship aspects, like 'Dr. Laura Berman (relationship expert), Dr. Viviana Coles (relationship and intimacy expert), Dr. Mike Dow (brain health, mental illness, relationship, addiction, and nutrition expert), Dr. Jamye Waxman (sex therapist and sex educator), and Dr. Kerry-Anne Perkins (medical expert; obstetrician and gynecologist).'
Cannon is also using his star power to get some of his celebrity friends to open up about their personal lives, with confirmed guests including Melyssa Ford, Raven Symoné, Bobbi Althoff, Hannah Stocking, Rosa Acosta, Flame Monroe, Natalie Friedman, Courtney Bee, and Sarah Fontenot.
To mix things up, there will be audience engagement, on-the-street interviews, and debates on hot topic relationship issues.
Nick Cannon @ Night debuts July 23 on YouTube, Wondery+ and wherever you stream your podcasts.
Cannon is an entertainer at heart, and his elite hosting skills have been on display for years with Wild 'N Out, America's Got Talent , and his eponymous talk show. But social media is pretty wary of taking his relationship advice. See the reactions below.

'Daily Show' co-creator sounds off on cancellation of Colbert's show, accuses CBS of being 'afraid'

Lizz Winstead, the co-creator of "The Daily Show", sounded off during an MSNBC interview about the cancellation of late-night host Stephen Colbert's show, accusing CBS of being afraid. "To just drop the franchise itself, right, its not like Stephen Colbert, its a double, its a twofer, right? And that says to me, you're afraid, because we've watched, with 'The Daily Show,' with John Oliver, we've watched how people who do not have a dog in the fight, and what I mean by that is people who call BS no matter who the powerful person is, on their hypocrisy or screwing up. And that's what Stephen has done brilliantly, Jon [Stewart] has done brilliantly, John Oliver has done brilliantly," Winstead said. Winstead wrote a piece for Rolling Stone on Friday about the cancellation of Colbert and said she didn't believe CBS' explanation for canceling the show. CBS announced that Colbert's show would be canceled at the end of its broadcast season and said it was a "purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night." "So when the truthtellers are the comics and those comics are actually resonating with the people that Donald Trump has not been able to reach, then he's got to go plan b and plan b is, 'oh, look at me, I have a merger I need, look at me. I can ask for what I want, and I can silence those voices because my, lardo-thin skin cannot take the ridicule,' that most people can who are grown adults running a nation," she continued. Liberals have overwhelmingly argued that Colbert's show was canceled for political reasons. Days before the cancellation, Colbert slammed Paramount's recent settlement with President Donald Trump over his lawsuit against "60 Minutes" as a "big fat bribe" ahead of a pending merger between Paramount and Skydance Media. Winstead argued Colbert, along with other comedians, was an authentic voice on late-night television. "When you are authentic, people gravitate to you, and there is nothing and no one more authentic than Stephen, John. You look at these passionate pleas that they give nightly, and you're like, that is real. And the fire is what makes people come back. And if you lack the fire, man, do you hate it. And if that fire is directed at you, you have no other choice, because you're small, to want to squelch it and put it out," Winstead continued. Winstead wrote in Rolling Stone that she didn't believe CBS' financial excuse and suggested networks didn't want progressive voices. "This is why Colbert's cancellation hits different. Not just because he's one of the greats, but because his ousting is a warning shot. It tells comedians — even the white, male, successful ones — that there's a line. And if you cross it, they'll find an excuse to take you out," Winstead, who identified herself in the commentary essay as a loud and proud, pro-abortion progressive, wrote. "Underneath those thinly veiled excuses is fear. Fear of the power comedians have. Fear that people might actually listen while they are laughing," she continued.

British Comic Nish Kumar on How YouTube Helped Him Achieve Success Outside of the U.K.

British comic and podcast host Nish Kumar knows the value of Netflix specials for A-listers like Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle. But he sees emerging comedians like himself with slow-burn careers often getting their biggest boost globally from YouTube after years playing clubs big and small back home. 'I'm primarily known in North America because of a British show called Taskmaster, which people outside the UK watch on YouTube,' Kumar told The Hollywood Reporter while performing at the Just For Laughs comedy festival in Montreal. More from The Hollywood Reporter 'In the Land of Arto': Camille Cottin, Zar Amir Ebrahimi Journey Into Armenia and Its Past (Exclusive Clips) Why Stand-up Legend George Wallace Can't Get Off the Stage After 49 Years in Comedy: "I'm Living My Dream" Former Obama Speechwriter Jon Lovett on How Trump Is Funny Like a "Clown With a Gun" Re-runs of Taskmaster, a British comedy panel game show that included Kumar, have been viewed on YouTube as creator-driven online platforms increasingly disrupt the traditional media landscape, and podcasts like Crooked Media's Pod Save the UK, which Kumar co-hosts with cultural journalist Coco Khan, transform the audio space. The podcast gig followed Kumar appearing on stage at a live London comedy show produced by Crooked Media, which was followed by that proverbial chance call from Hollywood. Soon after he walked off stage, he got a call from Los Angeles asking if he could be at a meeting in London in 20 minutes. 'And I was like, I'm already there. I'm literally in the audience. So I got pulled out of the crowd like Courteney Cox in the 'Dancing in the Dark' video,' Kumar recalled. Later, Crooked Media asked if he'd be interested in launching and hosting a British show, which he did. Kumar's Pod Save the UK offers a weekly fix on U.K. politics. That means Kumar and co-host Khan got to cover the downfall of British prime minister Boris Johnson over his rule-breaking parties in No. 10 during the COVID-19 pandemic. 'In terms of historic failures of leadership, I think Johnson's conduct in the pandemic is one of those things that people will study for years,' Kumar says. But while the U.K.'s Conservative Party sent Johnson packing, Kumar has a take on why Donald Trump, also judged by many as a political buffoon whose erratic style endears him to followers, was restored to the White House for a second term. 'Trump has killed the broad church in the Republican Party. It's no longer a political party. It's a delivery system for a single man and that's a huge problem,' he insists. As Nigel Farage, a protégé of Trump, challenges Britain's current Labor government in the polls, Kumar doesn't look forward to his Reform UK party coming to power to reinvigorate his political comedy. 'The thing with (Farage) and Trump is there is a shamelessness. It actually makes it harder to make fun of them. Politicians in theory are supposed to conduct themselves with a level of dignity that means there's something to prick for principles. Farage and Trump are congenitally shameless men,' Kumar said.

Trump Says ‘I Absolutely Love' That Stephen Colbert Got ‘Fired' and ‘I Hear Jimmy Kimmel Is Next'

President Donald Trump weighed in on CBS's announcement that it is canceling Stephen Colbert's late-night talk show — and the president is hopeful Jimmy Kimmel will be next to get axed. CBS said Thursday that it plans to end 'The Late Show With Stephen Colbert' in May 2026, calling it a 'purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night.' More from Variety CBS Canceling Stephen Colbert's 'Late Show' Is an End of an Era for Television - and a Chilling Sign of What's to Come Trump Celebrates Congress Pulling $1.1 Billion in Funding From 'Atrocious' NPR and PBS: 'This Is Big!' Jimmy Kimmel Says 'F- You CBS' for Canceling 'Late Show With Stephen Colbert' as Speculation Stirs if the Series Is Ending for 'Political Reasons' 'I absolutely love that Colbert' got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings,' Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Friday morning. 'I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!' The president then went on to praise Fox News late-night comedian Greg Gutfeld, whom Trump said 'is better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show,' referring to Jimmy Fallon. CBS's move to pull Colbert off the air came two weeks after Paramount Global announced that it agreed to pay Trump $16 million to settle his lawsuit alleging a '60 Minutes' interview with Kamala Harris was deceptively edited. And the announcement of 'The Late Show' cancelation came three days after Colbert had said on his show that the settlement by CBS's parent company was 'a big, fat bribe,' alleging that Paramount made the payment because it's seeking to secure the Trump administration's approval to merge with Skydance Media. 'As someone who has always been a proud employee of this network, I am offended, and I don't know if anything will ever repair my trust in this company,' Colbert joked in his July 14 opening monologue. 'But just taking a stab at it, I'd say $16 million would help.' Colbert added, 'Paramount knows they could have easily fought it because in their own words, the lawsuit was 'completely without merit.' And keep in mind, Paramount produced 'Transformers: Rise of the Beast.' They know 'completely without merit.'' Critics of Trump including Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) suggested that CBS's cancelation of Colbert's show may have been related to the Paramount settlement with the president. 'America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons,' Warren wrote on social media Thursday evening. Kimmel on Thursday wrote in an Instagram story, 'Love you Stephen' — and lashed out at CBS: 'Fuck you and all your Sheldons CBS.' Kimmel, host of ABC's 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!', has been attacked by Trump in the past. In an interview last month with Variety, Kimmel was asked if he was worried that Trump would start coming after comedians in the way that he's tried to intimidate news media outlets and journalists. 'Well, you'd have to be naive not to worry a little bit. But that can't change what you're doing,' Kimmel said. 'And maybe it is naive, but I have the hope that if and when the day comes that he does start coming after comedians, that even my colleagues on the right will support my right to say what I like. Now, I could be kidding myself, and hopefully we'll never find out. But if we do, I would hope that the outrage is significant.' At Thursday's taping of 'The Late Show,' Colbert broke the news to the audience that the show was ending. 'It is a fantastic job. I wish somebody else was getting it,' he said. Colbert also thanked CBS executives and the 200 or so staffers who work on the program. To the boos of the audience at the news, Colbert said, 'Yeah, I share your feelings. It's not just the end of our show, but it's the end of 'The Late Show' on CBS. I'm not being replaced. This is all just going away.'
