Kyle Prue Brings His Bad Advice to Big Money Players With New Podcast ‘Get Worse’
Kyle Prue built a massive following by giving advice nobody should take. Now he has a podcast built for exactly that. On September 29, iHeartMedia and Will Ferrell’s Big Money Players Network announced “Get Worse with Kyle Prue,” a new weekly comedy podcast from the viral comedian, which debuted October 6 with two episodes.
The weekly audio-video series pairs Prue’s deliberately questionable guidance with interviews across comedy, content creation and acting. The debut guest lineup includes comedians, creators and actors Hope Carew, Kel Cripe, Grant Gibbs, Sophia Sherman, Andrew Stier and Vinny Thomas, among others — a roster that mirrors the internet-native audience Prue cultivated on his way to this first podcast.
The signing is another move in Big Money Players’ steady expansion as one of comedy podcasting’s major homes, the network Ferrell co-founded as a hub for personality-driven comedy shows under the iHeartPodcasts umbrella. For Prue, the leap from short-form viral clips to a weekly long-form show is the classic creator-economy test: whether an audience that knows him in 60-second bursts will follow him into full episodes.
The title is the brand. Prue’s following was built on a simple, repeatable bit — confident answers to real questions that no responsible person would ever give — and “Get Worse” scales that bit into a format, with guests game enough to play along and a host whose straight face is the punchline. Two episodes at launch gave new listeners an immediate binge of exactly what his followers came for.
If his track record of turning bad advice into a brand is any indication, “Get Worse” is aiming to prove that the worse the advice, the better the podcast. New episodes arrive weekly on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard.

Billy Porter Opens a Faith-and-Identity Conversation Series as First Guest of ‘This Is Our Story’
A new monthly conversation series is making room for the stories people are rarely asked to tell in full. “This Is Our Story,” hosted by Seth Pinnock — founder of the UK charity Symphony Co. — launched October 20 from Symphony Co. and In Details Studios, exploring culture, faith, sexuality, identity and the life-shaping stories in between.
The inaugural guest sets the tone: Billy Porter, the Emmy, Grammy and three-time Tony Award winner, sits down with Pinnock for an open conversation about growing up in the Pentecostal church, enduring bullying, and the long road through faith, healing and forgiveness.
Porter’s reflections anchor the episode. “Forgiveness is for me,” he says in the conversation. “It’s not forgive and forget. It’s forgive and move forward.” It is the kind of unguarded exchange the series is built to hold — personal history examined without spectacle, by a host whose own work through Symphony Co. centers community and young people’s stories.
As a monthly series, “This Is Our Story” is positioned as a slow conversation in a fast medium: one guest, one story, and the space to tell it properly. With Porter as its first voice, it opens with a story that moves from the church pews of Pittsburgh to the highest stages in entertainment — and finds healing, not bitterness, at the center of it.
That is precisely the ground Pinnock wants the series to hold. The conversations are structured around the moments that shape a life rather than the highlights that sell one, and Porter’s episode — part testimony, part masterclass in survival — gives the young series an unmistakable statement of intent from its very first installment.
