Apple TV+ today releases the trailer for new audio series “Little America: The Official Podcast,” hosted by Kumail Nanjiani, a nonfiction exploration of the immigrant experience in America, premiering Thursday, November 3. Each of the audio series’ eight episodes features a different journalist who shares a unique story, from the weird and humorous to the gut-wrenching and poignant. The podcast complements the scripted Apple TV+ “Little America” series, executive produced by Nanjiani, which returns for its second season on December 9 with eight all-new stories.
“Little America: The Official Podcast” will feature journalists including Shereen Marisol Meraji, Avery Trufelman, Davy Rothbart, Hannah Kingsley-Ma, Albert Samaha and more, with subjects including a Vietnamese mentalist, a Yugoslavian wedding officiant, a Japanese food engineer, an Ethiopian dog trainer and State Representative Angelica Rubio, the daughter of Mexican immigrants, among others.
The podcast will debut with three episodes and new ones will debut weekly on Thursdays on Apple Podcasts and via RSS at https://apple.co/LittleAmericaPod.
“Little America: The Official Podcast” is produced in conjunction with the Vox Media Podcast Network. Executive producers are Nishat Kurwa and Josh Bearman.
