Seth Meyers launches A Closer Look as summer video podcast series
"A Closer Look: Out of Office" is now streaming on YouTube.
Seth Meyers, late night host, has taken his popular segment A Closer Look and transformed it into a video podcast series during summer break. The series, titled A Closer Look: Out of Office, is now available on YouTube, Peacock, and major podcast platforms. Meyers sat down with supervising writer/producer Sal Gentile for the inaugural episode to discuss recent current affairs.
Gentile mentioned his favorite alternate title for the series, A Closer Look: Proof of Life, which reflects the show's ongoing relevance, much like Mitch McConnell releasing a new photo to prove his presence. In the first episode, Meyers and Gentile delved into Donald Trump's surprise switch of the catering cart on Air Force One and the Department of Justice's attempt to revive a case related to vandalism at the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool.
It seems Meyers used the word "vacation" as inspiration to bring his podcast equipment along for the ride. For those interested in film and TV news and reviews, sign up for Mashable's Top Stories newsletter or enable push alerts on the Mashable app.
