Lemonada, Powderkeg Media Launch Elyse Myers Podcast


''Funny Cuz It's True''
''Funny Cuz It's True''

Lemonada Media is partnering with Paul Feig's Powderkeg Media to launch "Funny Cuz It's True," the debut podcast from comedian Elyse Myers. In this new weekly series, Myers interviews fellow comedians and pop culture icons to explore a personal story of theirs centered around the awkwardness of everyday life. These stories are accompanied by a voiceover from the host, giving the audience a direct glimpse into Elyse's brain -- complete with her trademark humor and vulnerability.

The first two episodes of Funny Cuz It's True are out now. Episode one hears from actor, director and filmmaker Paul Feig ("Freaks and Geeks," "Bridesmaids," "The School for Good and Evil") on the story behind his first kiss. Episode two welcomes singer and actor Lance Bass to discuss his experience being in a boy band and his journey with IVF.

"I had never been more excited or scared to conquer a new creative project like I was with Funny Cuz It's True," said Elyse. "This podcast feels like an extended play of the stories I love sharing online, just even more beautiful and put together. Every creative decision made along the way has been incredibly intentional, and I'm so excited to finally be able to share this show with the world!"

"We are pinching ourselves at how lucky we are to be able to create this series alongside Elyse and Powderkeg," added Lemonada CEO Jessica Cordova Kramer. "When we first had the chance to meet Elyse and the team to talk about the show, we knew it was a perfect fit."

"Laura, Kesila, and I are so thrilled to bring Elyse's unique voice and perspective to life in podcast form with the team at Lemonada," said Powderkeg Media co-founder Paul Feig. "She brings such entertaining and authentic insight to everything she does, Elyse is the perfect host to confront life's anxieties with laughter."
