“Say More with Dr? Sheila” features comedian Amy Poehler as a fictional therapist with questionable methods and credentials counseling a new couple every week. The scripted comedy podcast is the result of a partnership with Poehler’s Paper Kite Productions and Audacy’s Cadence13 Studios.
The partnership is the start of a 30-episode comedy franchise featuring stories that parody popular themes in the podcast space.
“We are huge fans of podcasts, and we can’t wait to poke fun at all the things we love about them, and to do so with Cadence13,” said Amy Poehler and writer/producer Liz Cackowski.
“They had me at Amy and Liz. From there came a brilliant concept that we absolutely wanted to be a part of,” said Chris Corcorcan, Chief Content Officer and Founding Partner, Cadence13. “Cadence13 is excited to bring this kind of hilarious and smart storytelling to the space, and we are so proud to be in this with Paper Kite.”
The first installment is slated to launch later this year. The 10-episode season will also feature improvisation by the series regulars as well as the company of actors and comedians who will appear as the couples seeking therapy.
