Former NBC News anchor finds new home at Netflix after controversy
Former "NBC Nightly News" and MSNBC anchor Brian Williams is returning to TV screens since leaving NBC, where he became a mainstay for 28 years.
Williams, 66, will host a brand-new podcast on Netflix, "where viewers will see a side of him they’ve never seen before — unscripted, unhurried, and utterly himself."
The podcast, titled "We’re Back! With Brian Williams," will consist of the longtime news anchor conversing with the "most interesting figures shaping popular culture," including actors, writers, musicians, athletes, journalists and unexpected newsmakers, according to the streaming service.
"With scientists predicting that every American will have a podcast by 2030, I thought it was time to get in the game," Williams said in a statement. "After 40 years in the news business, where an in-depth interview gets 4 minutes of airtime at best, I just want to have interesting conversations with creative, funny, smart, talented, and consequential people — like the shows we all grew up watching and listening to. Netflix is the perfect home.”
