Season Two of The Andy Daly Podcast Pilot Project Premiered Today
Hello! Thank you for journeying into this remote and wholly unnecessary corner of the internet, which itself is not necessary. I know. I was alive before there was an internet and things were just fine. They really were. But it is here and we are here and I am apparently putting some words in this space and I don’t know what’s up with you that you’re reading them but I hope everything’s okay.
Sirs and madams, has it really been four years since The Andy Daly Podcast Pilot Project has politely requested some of your earspace? The calendar tells me that that is so but I have a hard time believing it. Why would it ever take so long to make another eight episodes of a podcast? That doesn’t seem rational. And yet, and yet.
When I look back on these past four years, I can tell you that my Comedy Central series Review is the main thing that claimed my time and I dare say I’m glad it did. From the summer of 2014 until the late fall of 2016, I was in a constant state of either pre-producing, writing, shooting, editing or promoting Review or else waiting to get started doing all those things any minute now. Then I started out 2017 with a list of projects I wanted to tackle and the podcast was on there, but not at the top. I’ll be able to tell you about some of the other entries on that list soon, by the way. But it was October of 2017 before I turned my attention back to the podcasting game and when I did, I naturally started with an email to the indispensable and unnaturally talented and hilarious Matt Gourley. He and I sat down at LA’s legendary Tam O’Shanter bar and restaurant just as we did back on that fateful day when we met to discuss the first season. Over three plates of prime rib each (a dare and a terrible idea), we made up a plan that called for a rather leisurely schedule to get all this recorded. And now, a mere five months later, here it comes by gum!
I do hope that all the fans of the first season will find these new installments and welcome them into their comedy hearts. And new fans are, I suppose, also welcome. Yes, yes okay, new fans are fine. So spread the word.
If there’s a reason for this here blog post to exist it’s to show you this link…

…to where you can hear the first episode of The Andy Daly Podcast Pilot Project Season 2, which happens to be titled Bonanas For Bonanza with Dalton Wilcox. Join the Poet Laureate of The West and his friends (and one enemy) as they revisit the television classic Bonanza. We feel this podcast episode is as full a comedy meal as you’re likely to find anywhere in the world. Lots of stuff going on here.
While Stitcher Premium is a damn fine value at $4.99 a month, I’d never try to talk you out of getting one of those months for $0, which is even less. Matter of fact, I’d like to talk you into it. Use the promo code ANDY and luxuriate in 30 days of free podcastery. Do it now!
We should also know that the first season of The Andy Daly Podcast Pilot Project is being re-released on Earwolf starting today with that season’s teaser episode, which you can listen to here…
If there’s a second reason for this post to exist, it’s to thank all the incredible people who have answered the call to be a part of these screw-arounds. Just look at the hilarious people involved in this first episode and marvel at how fortunate we all are that so many comedy Gods are so generous with their time and talents. Thank you thank you, friends! And I promise you later episodes will feature more murderer’s rows of comedy all-star comedians (and murderers), friends old and new and all of them funny as the fiery lava pits of hell.
If there’s a third reason for this post to exist, it’s to thank ADPPP fans for your patience. Four years is a long time to wait to hear depraved lunatics host their own shows and even though I suspect some of you have done other things besides wait for these podcasts over the past four years, I thank you anyway and I hope you feel it’s been worth the wait.
If there’s a fourth reason for this post to exist, I just don’t know what it is. So this seems like a good place to sign off.
yours in long and flowery sign-offs,
