This eclectic mix of entertainment industry veterans, rising stars, and even academic experts demonstrates the show’s wide-ranging appeal and Mulaney’s connections across various industries.
The comedian has been actively promoting the show through a series of Instagram posts, sharing highlights from previous episodes and teasing content for upcoming shows. Recent posts include clips featuring comedian Hannibal Buress in a segment called “first impressions,” a joke about men under six feet tall, and references to filmmaker David Lynch that suggest the show incorporates a variety of cultural touchpoints.
Mulaney’s Rising Profile
John Mulaney began his career as a writer on “Saturday Night Live” from 2008 to 2013, where he created numerous memorable characters and sketches.

One recent post from the show featured talk show host Jimmy Kimmel, whom Mulaney described as “a friend, a hero, a true six footer,” hinting at a running joke about height that seems to be a recurring theme in the current season.
