EXCLUSIVE: iHeartPodcasts has teamed with Workaholics alums Blake Anderson, Adam Devine and Anders Holm — the creators of their hit podcast This Is Important — on Look Back At It, a new comedic history podcasts hosted by stand-ups Sam Jay and Alex English that launches April 29.
Emerging from a production partnership between the This Is Important trio and iHeart, the weekly series will find hosts Jay and English hopping into a metaphorical time machine to spend a day in the past in hope of understanding the chaos that is sure to be the future. From pop culture and political news to scientific markers and medical breakthroughs, the duo will hold up a mirror to society and ask: “Did we really learn anything, or did we just become dumber?”
Look Back At It is distributed by iHeartPodcasts and will be available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard. Special guests will include Larry Wilmore, Crissle West, Marc Lamont Hill, Tone Bell, Judy Gold, Clayton English, Mouse Jones, Sydnee Washington, Marie Faustin, Carl Jones, and more.
“I am truly thrilled to be doing this podcast with iHeart and the guys from ‘This Is Important.’ We have been homies for a while now so the chance to work with them on this project is what every artist dreams of—doing something cool with people you actually like,” said Jay. “And ‘Look Back At It’ is gonna fit well in their universe. Can’t wait for y’all to lock in and listen!! A time will be had for sure.”
The This Is Important trio joked, “Let’s face the facts. The world needs more podcasts. Thankfully Adam Devine, Anders Holm and Blake Anderson from ‘This Is Important’ listened and are bringing you more podcasts that are the most critically, crucially, important podcasts that will shift the earth off its axis and change the trajectory of humankind… Allegedly.”
The trio added, “We are excited to help launch ‘Look Back At It.’ Sam Jay is someone we’ve always found hilarious, with a disarming, fresh take on all things important, and Alex English is the perfect sidekick to her raw and original humor. We know this is the perfect first step in expanding the franchise with our favorite corporate overlord iHeart!”
