Netflix gets Rob Lowe podcast and a documentary

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt's one thirty Eastern, this is The Couch Panel.

2. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNetflix has picked up Rob Lowe's video podcast and a documentary about him, The Hollywood Reporter says, so today's question: is three Netflix projects in a few weeks a comeback, or just a lot of Rob Lowe?

3. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorIt's a survival story, Hank. Netflix says the documentary shows what it really took for him to survive Hollywood.

4. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorI say it took a podcast, a holiday movie and a documentary, all in the same season.

5. 

   Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentThe documentary streams November twenty-fourth. The holiday film, In a Holidaze, is December second. The podcast starts December third. That's a schedule, not survival.

6. 

   Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentSurvival doesn't have a December second. That's a release date.

7. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAnd the doc is from the director of Fyre and Tiger King.

8. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorRight. I've changed my mind. That's a man who needs to be worried.

9. 

   Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentOh, you're switching sides because of a director? I'd watch it purely because he's earned my suspicion.

10. 

    Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentMy side is yes, it's fine, and I'd say that even if I hadn't liked St. Elmo's Fire, which I have not.

11. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHe's been hosting the podcast since June of twenty twenty. Thirty-plus old episodes go up on Netflix too. Conan O'Brien has been a guest.

12. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThirty episodes on a streaming service. Somebody will have to watch them, and I'd like to know who volunteers.

13. 

    Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentVideo episodes every Thursday.

14. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorShow of hands. Who thinks it's a comeback? Nobody. Who thinks it's a lot of Rob Lowe? Two. Chat, vote.

15. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNetflix says it took a lot to survive Hollywood, and by December he'll be surviving it on Thursdays.

16. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSame time tomorrow.
