The title, of course, is a reference to their years together on the NBC sitcom "Cheers," and to the fact that Harrelson’s participation is more limited. He’ll be on with Danson "when he can find him," SiriusXM said.

Stewart, who returned to Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" earlier this year to host once a week, will do a podcast called "The Weekly Show," according to Comedy Central. It is expected to launch in early June.
The podcast sounds like an extension of the television show, with guests and deeper dives into issues, according to a description by MTV Entertainment Studios & Paramount Media Networks.
"After much reflection, meditation and prayer, I have decided to extend my work week to two days," Stewart said.
