Billy Bush Launches ‘Hot Mics’ Podcast With Unvarnished Talk Inspired by Pat McAfee

People who think they know Billy Bush may be surprised this week when he unveils a new video podcast.
“What this show will deliver is the real me — real unadulterated, unfiltered opinion, no fear, a great sense of humor,” says Bush during an interview. “I can’t wait, and I don’t give a s—t. I’m the head of H.R.”
Bush is known for his many years of hosting entertainment-news programs such as NBCUniversal’s “Access Hollywood” and, most recently, Warner Bros. Discovery’s “Extra.” But he sees an opportunity to put on an unbridled show that will have him talking sports and politics, interviewing celebrities in no-holds-barred fashion and giving fans behind-the-scenes stories collected after more than two decades of covering Hollywood.
The new program, “Hot Mics with Billy Bush,” will stream twice a week, starting Monday, January 13. The program will airs live Mondays and Wednesdays at 5 p.
