The Comedy Show Show with Will Arnett is just the start of several new comedy shows coming out of Audible promising its listeners plenty of laughs.
The selection of shows comes from Audible Channels. The company says of the new service:
Showcasing top-tier comedic talent and featuring the premium quality and sound design that customers have come to expect from Audible productions, these comedy offerings are anchored by the new release of The Comedy Show Show with Will Arnett, a hilarious all-access pass to the hottest thematic comedy shows around the country.
Arnett (The LEGO Batman Movie) even put together a couple of different trailers for his upcoming show. The first one is a bit vanilla, but the second one definitely steps up its sexy game.
The original comedy series you can access through the Audible app using the ad-free Channels experience include:
- The complete first season of Bedtime Stories for Cynics, presented by Nick Offerman, featuring inappropriate children’s stories for adults
- Hold On with Eugene Mirman, in which the host pauses funny live stories and gets his special comedian guests, including “Weird Al” Yankovic, Jim Gaffigan and Lisa Lampanelli, to divulge new details
- Hot Mic with Dan Savage, a collection of awkward, poignant and hilarious stories about lust, longing, and lewd behavior hosted by the sex advice columnist
- The complete first season of Sounds like America, hosted by a rotating cast of seasoned comics including Rob Delaney and Roy Wood Jr.; each episode covers a different American pastime, region, characteristic, event, or zeitgeist
- Limelight, hot and fresh stand-up from comedy clubs across America, with a new theme and a new host — from T.J. Miller to George Lopez — each episode
