Former "DINNER PARTY DOWNLOAD" co-host BRENDAN FRANCIS NEWNAM has resurfaced with a new podcast. "NOT LOST," for PUSHKIN INDUSTRIES, iHEARTMEDIA, and TOPIC STUDIOS, debuting MAY 4th. The new show is styled as a documentary of NEWNAM and guests traveling to new towns and getting invited to a stranger's house for dinner. The first eight-episode season will find NEWNAM visiting MONTREAL, BOZEMAN, MT, PORTLAND, ME, NEW ORLEANS, MEXICO CITY, LAS VEGAS, BIG SUR, and his hometown of NEW YORK.
“Whenever I’ve been at a turning point in my life, I’ve traveled to help broaden my sense of what kind of life is possible,” said NEWNAM, “So when my national radio show ended, as well as a long-term relationship, I decided to tour NORTH AMERICA, but this time with friends and a microphone. I came up with the idea of trying to get invited to dinner parties in each town, since I believe that’s the way to best get to know a place. It didn’t always work out as planned, but it made for some fun adventures. I thought it was going to be the audio equivalent of (ANTHONY) BOURDAIN’s PARTS UNKNOWN, but it ended up being a little more like STEVE COOGAN’s THE TRIP.”
“What an incredible joy to discover fascinating corners of the world and to meet new friends with BRENDAN as our tour guide,” said TOPIC STUDIOS Pres. MARIA ZUCKERMAN, “We are thrilled to be working with the wonderful team at PUSHKIN and are excited for listeners to embark on this special journey.”
