Andrew Schulz Announces New Netflix Comedy Special ‘Life'
EXCLUSIVE: Comedian Andrew Schulz has taped a new pregnancy-themed special, Life, that's set to premiere globally on Netflix on March 4.
Filmed during a record-setting run at New York's Beacon Theatre, the special is Schulz's second for Netflix, on the heels of Schulz Saves America, a four-parter in which he dissected the most controversial topics of 2020. In the special, directed by Troy Miller, which is billed as the comic's most personal yet, he offers a look at the hilarious and humbling journey of trying to start a family, breaking down the chaos of IVF like only he can. From pumping out samples to dodging emotional landmines, it's raw, real, and will make you grateful your swimmers (probably) work.

Exec producers on the special include Schulz, Dov Mamann, Mark Gagnon, and Miller. Dakota Films was the production company.
One of today's most popular comics, Schultz recently wrapped his sold-out global Life Tour, which included back-to-back sellouts at Madison Square Garden, Los Angeles' Kia Forum and Crypto.com Arena, two shows at Toronto's Scotiabank Arena, and over 70 arenas and theaters across the U.S., Canada, Europe, the Middle East, and Australia. In a bold move during his last tour, he bought back his most recent special, Infamous, from a major streamer after rejecting creative notes and distributed it independently. After amassing over 20 million views on YouTube, it became one of the platform's most-watched comedy specials, cementing Schulz as a pioneer in direct-to-fan content distribution. Prior to Schulz Saves America, Schulz also went directly to YouTube with his specials, 5:5:1 and 4:4:1.
In the podcast world, Schulz is known for his show Flagrant, which boasts 1.3 billion views on YouTube and has featured headline-grabbing guests like President Donald Trump, Joe Rogan, 50 Cent, Mr. Beast, Shane Gillis, and Jelly Roll. He also co-hosts The Brilliant Idiots podcast, blending comedy with cultural commentary, with Charlamagne tha God.
Schulz's recent TV and film credits include starring in Netflix's hit comedy series Tires, the Western drama The Thicket alongside Peter Dinklage, and Amazon MGM's football comedy The Underdoggs with Snoop Dogg. He also appeared in Netflix's You People with Eddie Murphy, Jonah Hill, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and 20th/Hulu's remake of the cult classic White Men Can't Jump with Jack Harlow. The comic is represented by CAA, manager Dov Mamann, and Yorn, Levine, Barnes.

Only Aaron Rodgers could complain about attention to get attention
Aaron Rodgers is mad. Not actually mad, of course. But acting superior to other people is just part of his brand. He likes dishing out admonishment. So, on Tuesday, having no appreciation for irony, he went on the Pat McAfee show and complained about being in the public eye and all the unwanted attention he gets. Advertisement Rodgers voluntarily goes on TV to complain that he doesn't like attention? That's a good one. The only reason for him to be doing a stint on a talk show, especially McAfee's show, in June is because he craves attention. His big news this week was that this was probably his last season as a player. For a guy who was mistreated by Brett Favre when they were teammates, Rodgers is utilizing his 'How to Turn Retirement Uncertainty into Extra Attention' playbook to perfection. This is the same guy who wanted to host Jeopardy while still playing football. The same guy who milked the spotlight when Robert F. Kennedy leaked Rodgers as a possible vice presidential candidate. Advertisement And the same guy who gave his blessing to NETFLIX to make 'Enigma' a three-part documentary about his life. The only surprising thing is that the Steelers are putting up with this. Signing Rodgers is about the most uncharacteristic move they've made. This is a franchise that had the forethought to get out of the Antonio Brown business and then watched from a safe distance as he poisoned the Raiders, Patriots and Buccaneers. Rodgers is an aging, polarizing distraction who hasn't been good for a while and doesn't seem that committed to playing football anymore. Pittsburgh might be hoping Rodgers will be good again once he's washed all the Jets stink off himself, but he looked washed up in his last season in Green Bay. Advertisement ESPN's Mike Tannenbaum thinks Rodgers is washed up: 'I think Aaron Rodgers is gonna be irrelevant by Thanksgiving.' But his football struggles haven't moved the cameras away from him because he knows how to court them. If he really wanted less attention, he could stop saying every controversial thought out loud. Aaron Rodgers likes the public eye when it makes him money and gives him an audience for his debunked science. He doesn't like people exposing things that aren't true. Sick of the public eye? Start by getting off McAfee. Committing to the bit Whether it's real or legend, Wade Boggs famously claims to have consumed 73 beers on a cross-country flight between Boston and Los Angeles. Advertisement At last week's Fanatics Fest, a ComicCon for sports fans, two fans created a 73-pack of Miller Lite and brought it to the autograph session for Boggs to sign. Did he actually drink 73 beers or did his counting skills diminish somewhere in the 40s? It's amazing some New England Brewery hasn't partnered with Boggs to sell a 73-pack. Perfect for BBQs and flights to Anaheim. Why can't the Bruins make a good bear logo? The Spoked-B is terrific and the classic design is nice in the new Bruins uniforms unveiled on Wednesday. But somehow, in over 100 years of existence, the Bruins can't quite get a good Bear logo. Advertisement The difference between the 1980s Bruins jerseys and the new ones is the bear on the shoulder. Instead of Meth Bear, they'll get this one: It's the latest underwhelming ursine to grace and otherwise good jersey. Meth Bear looks deranged. Pooh Bear looks like a Build-a-Bear's dad. On the yellow shoulder patch (below), the bear is trying to be too detailed and the one on the white jersey barely (no pun intended) looks like a bear. As the old saying goes, bear problems lead to font problems with the new bear. With the off-putting letter-sizing used in the word Boston, the current looks like a bear that has just finished its last meal before hibernation. Would it have been worse with Devers? It's been 10 days since Craig Breslow said this quote about the Devers trade that will haunt him the rest of the year. Advertisement 'I do think there's a real chance we're looking back and we've won more games than we otherwise would have.' The Red Sox are 4-6 since, have lost five straight and are fading in the Wild Card race. There's a real chance Breslow never recovers from this move. Real Jeopardy!

Will There Be a Season 3 of ‘Nine Perfect Strangers?'
The second season of Hulu's Nine Perfect Strangers premiered in May with a new cast of characters, all subjected to the whims of Masha Dmitrichenko, played by Nicole Kidman. The experimental Wellness program ended dramatically, as is to be expected, and fans wonder if there will be more to learn about Masha's psychological philosophies in future seasons. Will there be more strangers meeting in a remote location soon? Here's what we know so far. Hulu has not yet renewed the show for another season, but since season 2 just came out a month ago, they may need more time to assess before making a decision. This season saw the strangers arrive at an exclusive Alpine retreat called Zauberwald to meet Masha for their psychedelic therapy. The official synopsis reads, 'Nine new strangers connected in ways they could never imagine are invited by mysterious guru, Masha Dmitrichenko (Nicole Kidman), to join a transformational wellness retreat in the Austrian Alps. Over the course of a week, she takes them to the brink. Will they make it? Will she? Masha is willing to try anything in the interest of healing everyone involved, including herself.' The main thing that changes each season so far is the location and the cast, aside from Kidman, who remains the lynchpin of the whole process of becoming 'well.' Kidman would have to return as Masha Dmitrichenko, but other than that, it's anyone's guess. The show has attracted some major stars who probably want to do more TV projects with less of a commitment. Season 2 starred Henry Golding, Lena Olin, Annie Murphy, Christine Baranski, Lucas Englander, King Princess, Murray Bartlett, Dolly de Leon, Maisie Richardson-Sellers, Mark Strong, and Aras Aydin. This post will be updated.
