Pete Davidson is ready to welcome you inside his garage. The comedian and actor is expanding his resume, adding “podcaster” to the list. If you’ve missed seeing the 32-year-old on your television screen every week since he left Saturday Night Live, you’re in luck, because he’s dropping new content every week on Netflix.
Properly named The Pete Davidson Show, the King of Staten Island star is ready to get unfiltered in the weekly video podcast. It won’t be in a fancy podcast studio or follow a boring, tightly produced interview format. It’ll be in his actual garage and “feature candid, no-holds-barred conversations,” according to a press release. Because, as Pete puts it, that’s “where all the best conversations happen.”
The first episode drops January 30, at 12:01 a.m. PST, with a new release every week. It’s Davidson hanging with his inner circle in front of the camera. Occasionally, they’ll take the podcast “on the road.”
It marks the fourth collaboration with Netflix. “Netflix was the home of one of my first stand-up specials,” he said, “so it felt right to bring the podcast there, too. It’s my friends and me talking about anything and everything. It’s going to be a great time.”

Behind the scenes, the project reunites Pete with familiar collaborators. Marc Lieberman of Above Average, who executive-produced Turbo Fonzarelli, is producing, alongside SNL vet Ayala Cohen, with Sarah Brennan Kolb directing.
Personal and professional life at a high
The timing marks his return to showbusiness since Davidson quietly stepped into a major new chapter in his personal life. In December, his girlfriend, Elsie Hewitt, gave birth to their daughter, Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson. They named her after his dad, Scott, who died as a firefighter on 9/11. He was last seen helping people evacuate from the Marriott Hotel before the North Tower fell on it, per ATI.

The podcast isn’t the only thing on Pete Davidson’s horizon. According to IMDb, he has four projects in the works, including How to Rob a Bank, which is currently in post-production and slated for release in 2026, and Wizards!, which has already been completed. He’s also attached to That Time We Met and Killing Satoshi, both of which are in pre-production.
