The Chris Gethard Show

The Chris Gethard Show is an hour long panel/variety/call-in show hosted by Chris Gethard. The panel is mostly made up of Gethard's fellows from Manhattan's Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre. In July 2011, The Chris Gethard Show shifted from a staged talk show at the UCB Theater to a public access show broadcasting from the Manhattan Neighborhood Network every Wednesday at 11pm eastern time. The show can also be downloaded as a video podcast available at iTunes.
