Headgum, the comedy podcast network behind shows such as, Handsome, We’re Here to Help with Jake Johnson and Gareth Reynolds, Senses Working Overtime with David Cross, Dead Eyes, and Newcomers with Lauren Lapkus & Nicole Byer, announces that Allison Williams, most well-known for her starring turn as ‘Marnie’ in HBO’s Emmy and Golden Globe award winning TV series GIRLS, will join the network’s award-winning lineup of shows with her new podcast Landlines.
Premiering June 9, the M3GAN 2.0 Star and Producer, Allison Williams, and her lifelong best friends Hope Kremer (Early Childhood Educator) and Jaymie Oppenheim (Therapist) open up their shame-extinguishing group chat to discuss all of the ‘what the sh*t!?’ moments of adulthood and parenting. Executive Producing for Headgum are Jillian Vogel (previously Director of Development at Imagine Entertainment, Jax Media, and Associate Producer of Hulu / Searchlight feature film Fire Island) and Emma Foley (So True with Caleb Hearon, Senses Working Overtime with David Cross, Thanks Dad with Ego Nwodim).
“What makes the Landlines podcast stand out is the chemistry between Allison, Jaymie and Hope,” says Vogel. “The hosts share a nostalgic sort of shorthand, and they effortlessly give perspective on this new chapter of their lives. There’s a confidence in how they address topics that are too often treated as taboo.” The discussions between the hosts open up to include other voices, and importantly, insight from doctors, authors and experts who are changing the conversation around subjects like motherhood, identity, relationships, hormones and mental health.
The first episode of Landlines is available June 9th. New episodes release every Monday and are available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Upcoming guests this season include Emily Oster, Dr. Gillian Goddard, Lauren Lapkus, Dr. Sara Reardon, Caitlin Murray and more. Additionally, ad sales for Landlines will be through Gumball, the Headgum-owned marketplace for advertisers to buy host-read ads directly from podcasters.
