Legendary Norman Lear to Host Weekly Podcast


American television icon Norman Lear is bringing his voice to the microphone with a weekly podcast. A World War II veteran, writer, producer and director, Lear created such legendary sitcoms as "All In The Family," "Good Times," "One Day at a Time," "The Jeffersons," and "Maude," among others. Early celebrity guests for "All of the Above with Norman Lear" include Amy Poehler, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jerrod Carmichael and America Ferrera. The podcast will debut May 1, with new episodes available every Monday.

"Circling 95, I wanted to wait until half my life was over to launch a podcast," said Lear. "Whatever my age, I think of myself as your peer -- whatever your age. Subscribe, and see if you don't agree."

PodcastOne Founder/Executive Chairman Norman Pattiz added, "I have known and admired Norman for a very long time. Having his podcast on our PodcastOne network is gigantic, not to mention totally cool. From one Norman to another, 'Welcome aboard.'"
