“The iHeartPodcast Network really knows how to make a podcast,” said Will Ferrell. “In addition to the creative minds working behind the scenes, the network has an unprecedented ability to reach millions of new podcast listeners. These first few shows for Big Money Players Network will set the standard for the type of high-quality comedy podcasts we’re striving to produce with this collaboration. Matt and Bowen; Carolina and Devin; Langston; Brian and Charlie; Kate and Jacqueline; and Michael Bolton!? Now that’s a can’t miss comedy lineup.”
“Since we started working with Will Ferrell, we’ve been extremely inspired by the comedic audio content we’ve been able to produce together,” said Conal Byrne, President of the iHeartPodcast Network. “Will is deeply dedicated to exploring the podcast medium. These initial shows demonstrate that the Big Money Players Network will create extremely fresh and captivating content.”

Kate Berlant is a successful comedian and actress with appearances in Quentin Tarantino's “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” Boots Riley's “Sorry to Bother You,” and television series including “Search Party,” “Transparent,” and “I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson.” She was named a Just for Laughs "New Face of Comedy," a Variety "Ten to Watch" and has filmed a one-hour stand-up special directed by Bo Burnham.
