Today, Apple TV+ revealed the trailer for “Big Time,” a new Apple Original podcast launching 24 March, 2025. Hosted by legendary actor and filmmaker Steve Buscemi (“Boardwalk Empire,” “Miracle Workers”), the 14-episode series explores audacious crimes — fake kidnappings, elaborate robberies, even stolen sharks — with Buscemi introducing a new true story each week about a larger-than-life scam or scheme that almost worked. “Big Time” is produced by Lee Eisenberg’s Piece of Work Entertainment and Campside Media, in association with Buscemi and Wren Arthur’s Olive Productions.
“I think a lot of people, myself included, are fascinated by folks who look at the rules and think, ‘No, I’ve got a better idea,’” shares Steve Buscemi, host and producer of the podcast series. “‘Big Time’ isn’t just true crime – it’s a carnival of chaos, and I’m excited for listeners to tune in.”
Apple TV+ subscribers can connect their subscription to Apple Podcasts to access the first two episodes on 24 March, with new episodes available one week early each week at apple.co/BigTimePod. Nonsubscribers can listen to the first episode on 24 March, with a new episode released weekly until the finale on 16 June. Follow and listen on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/BigTimePod.
