Netflix has announced that comedian Pete Davidson will host its first original podcast, titled “The Pete Davidson Show.” The weekly video podcast is set to premiere on January 30, 2025, at midnight PST, with new episodes released each week. The show will primarily be filmed in Davidson’s garage, a setting he believes fosters genuine conversations. He will also occasionally take the show on location, enhancing its appeal to a wider audience.
Davidson expressed his excitement about the venture, stating, “Netflix was the home of one of my first stand-up specials. So it felt right to bring the podcast there, too. It’s me and my friends talking about anything and everything. It’s going to be a great time.” This project marks a significant step in Davidson’s ongoing collaboration with Netflix, as the comedian has worked with the platform multiple times for comedy specials and events.
Exclusive Content on Netflix
The podcast will be exclusive to Netflix, meaning it will not be available on other popular platforms such as Spotify or Apple Podcasts. Details regarding the first guests have not yet been disclosed, adding an element of anticipation for potential listeners.
Davidson’s relationship with Netflix has grown over the years, making this podcast a natural progression in their partnership. As he embarks on this new chapter, it follows a significant personal milestone: Davidson recently welcomed his first child with girlfriend Elsie Hewitt. The couple announced the birth of their daughter, Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson, on December 12, 2025. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Hewitt described their daughter as “our perfect angel girl,” sharing her joy and love for their new addition.
A Tribute to Family Legacy
The name Scottie carries a poignant significance for Davidson, as it honors his late father, Scott Matthew Davidson, a firefighter who tragically lost his life during the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York City. This personal connection adds depth to Davidson’s public persona, showcasing not only his comedic talents but also his commitment to family values.
As anticipation builds for the launch of “The Pete Davidson Show,” viewers can look forward to a blend of humor, candid discussions, and personal stories from one of comedy’s most recognized figures. With its unique approach and exclusive content, the podcast is poised to attract a diverse audience on the world’s leading streaming platform.
