Audacy, Paper Kite Launch Scripted Podcast Series


''Say More with Dr? Sheila''
''Say More with Dr? Sheila''

Audacy and Amy Poehler's Paper Kite Productions launch the all-new podcast, "Say More with Dr? Sheila," with writer, actress, producer and director Amy Poehler, on Thursday, September 21. New episodes will be released weekly through November 16. The series will be the first in a three-season original scripted comedy podcast franchise from Audacy and Amy Poehler's Paper Kite Productions, under the Paper Kite Podcasts banner, with executive producer Liz Cackowski.

The franchise will feature stories that parody and pay homage to popular themes in the podcast space. The second and third installments of the Paper Kite Podcasts franchise are slated to launch in 2024, including a female-led true crime series and a male-hosted and interview-driven show. Each character and story will live in the same, interwoven universe.

"Dr? Sheila has changed my life," said Poehler. "She also owes me a considerable amount of money. But if I have learned anything from listening to 'Say More' it's the fact that people are complicated."

"We are huge fans and listeners of podcasts in every genre. Love self-help podcasts, love true crime, love the celebrity interview show, all of it," added Cackowski. "And as comedians, we show our love through parody, which perhaps is something the next self-help podcast can help me work through. We're excited to partner with Audacy to bring this series to life."
