Go behind the show as two of its stars who of course played Pam and Angela rewatch the series, unpacking it and offering their memories, insight and interesting behind-the-scenes facts as they go.

They’ll also be answering questions from fans of the hit sitcom, which ran from 2005 to 2013, and want the fans to feel included in the rewatch, as though they’re watching it along with the stars of the show.

What more could you want?! 

If the answer happens to be “more podcasts hosted by celebrities”, then we’ve got you covered. Here’s a list of Hollywood’s finest, who are guaranteed to make your commutes, exercise and chores fly by.

Casey Wilson and Danielle Schneider: Bitch Sesh

If you’re a fan of the Housewives, 90 Day Fiance, or pretty much any other reality series, look no further than Casey and Danielle’s Bitch Sesh breakdown, where they offer hilarious takes on that week’s wildest moments, perform dramatic re-enactments and offer their thoughts on all the ladies. Just remember, no tagging the housewives.

Jonathan Van Ness: Getting Curious

Tackling everything from gun violence to the opioid epidemic, JVN’s podcast sets out to make big issues easily digestible as he asks the uncomfortable questions needed to educate himself and his listeners. 

Anna Faris: Anna Faris is Unqualified

Do any of us have life figured out? Anna doesn’t, but that won’t stop her from mulling over life’s issues and offering her best unqualified advice, and it won’t stop us from listening.

Dax Shepard: Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard

Dax’s podcast is all about having honest conversations with his guests, and unpacking life at its best (and at its messiest), offering his advice as an armchair expert. He may be selling himself a little short, though. The actor and former Punk’d prankster has also been sober for over a decade and has a degree in anthropology.

Russell Brand: Under the Skin with Russell Brand

As the title might imply, Russell’s podcast looks to go beyond the surface of things: the things we love, the things we hate, as well as ideas and history as they’re presented to us. With a slew of guests ranging from the entertainment world to academic experts, you can have a laugh while you learn.

Snoop Dogg: Double G News

Honestly, who doesn’t want to get Snoop Dogg’s take on anything and everything going on in the world? Even the listen notes’ description of the podcast is hysterical:

“This is nuthin but a smoked out session rolled tightly into podcast form that features me choppin’ game with and doin’ full-length interviews with a who’s who from the entertainment world. Listen to some funny ass comedic tales or me bustin’ some off tha cuff freestyles.”

Chelsea Peretti: Call Chelsea Peretti

This one is pretty self-descriptive. Chelsea takes listeners’ calls and offers her musings on them. If you like her comedy specials or Brooklyn 99, this one’s for you.

Nico Tortorella: The Love Bomb
