Comedy Central Gets Friday Talk Show; The Goldbergs Actress Releases Music Video

Comedy Central, the #1 brand in comedy, announced the greenlight of Good Talk with Anthony Jeselnik, a comedic interview series that will premiere on Friday, September 6 at 11 p.m. ET/PT. Each episode will feature an interview with one of Anthony's friends - who happen to be some of the best comedians in the business - as they discuss all things comedy. Over the course of six episodes, Jeselnik will sit down with David Spade, Kristen Schaal, Kumail Nanjiani, Natasha Leggero, Nick Kroll, and Tig Notaro. In Good Talk, Jeselnik switches gears from his signature acerbic style for tongue-in-cheek interviews with his fellow comedians about their careers, influences and what it's like to live in his massive shadow. Jeselnik and his guests center their extremely funny conversations around stand up, stories and bits and participate in elegantly bizarre studio segments.

Good Talk with Anthony Jeselnik is part of Comedy Central's multiplatform development deal with the irreverent, iconoclastic comedian, which includes 40 episodes of The Jeselnik and Rosenthal Vanity Project podcast, since its fall 2018 launch. The #1 brand in comedy has also previously collaborated for two seasons of The Jeselnik Offensive and his 2013 stand-up special, Caligula.

TV actress, country music singer and songwriter, Hayley Orrantia (Erica on ABC's The Goldbergs), has released the striking music video for her latest single, "If I Don't" from her recently released EP, The Way Out, exclusively on Billboard.com. The music video, directed by Emma Higgins, is a beautiful depiction of how denial can often times keep us in situations that we know deep down aren’t healthy. In a series of stunning vignettes, the story follows Orrantia's emotional division growing within the relationship between her and a boyfriend that is masking his true intentions. "If I Don't," which reached the #20 spot on the U.S. Country Music iTunes chart and #3 in the UK in its first day of release, was written by Orrantia, Robyn Collins & Mike Miller, and produced by Mike Miller. Orrantia's EP, The Way Out, is out now on all streaming and download platforms.
