AceShowbiz - Ice Cube and Mike Epps have teamed up to create a new podcast titled Listen & Laugh, drawing inspiration from their iconic roles in the Friday movie series. The podcast aims to blend humor and real conversation, much like the dynamic between their characters Craig and Day-Day.

The duo unveiled the first trailer for the podcast on October 30, 2026, teasing a lineup of high-profile guests from various fields such as music, entertainment, sports, and comedy. Notable guests featured in the preview include Dr. Dre, Lil Dicky, Benny Blanco, The Game, T.I., comedians Cedric the Entertainer and Bill Burr, as well as former NBA player Jalen Rose.

The show is described as an open platform where discussions range from personal stories to cultural debates, creating a space where nothing is off limits. The podcast promises a balance of heartfelt moments and humor, with Cube engaging listeners through compelling dialogue and Epps bringing laughter to the conversations.

Listen & Laugh pays homage to the roots of Ice Cube and Mike Epps' friendship, which began on the set of Next Friday in 2000. The podcast’s set design is inspired by the iconic porch from the original 1995 Friday film, reinforcing the nostalgic connection fans of the series will appreciate.

New episodes of Listen & Laugh are set to release every Friday at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT on YouTube as well as on major podcast platforms, giving fans a weekly dose of entertainment and insight from two of comedy’s most beloved figures.

This podcast marks a fresh chapter for both stars as they translate their on-screen chemistry into a real-life project that blends storytelling, humor, and candid conversations with some of today’s biggest names across multiple industries.
