The podcast will join iHeartMedia and Premiere Networks’ Elvis Duran Podcast Network and will be available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard. Watch/share the official podcast trailer HERE.

Comedians Joe Gatto and Steve Byrne have always been the advice givers inside their friend groups believing it’s the direct result of one thing: cool moms. Throughout their lives each had a strong, opinionated mother who gave great advice and the guys believe they have inherited that gene. In each episode of Two Cool Moms after discussing whatever is on their minds, Gatto and Byrne get into helping fans that submit their dilemmas by dispensing sage motherly advice—sometimes good, sometimes not, but always entertaining.

“This podcast has been such a fun and exciting way to entertain,” says Gatto. “Steve and I had been looking for a way to work together for years and to have this show and be part of such an amazing organization at iHeart has me so excited. Not to mention to pay tribute to my mother, who was always in my corner every step of the way.”

“This podcast is such a fun and heartwarming way to explore the many complicated issues that life brings us,” adds Byrne. “I’m proud of the community Joe and I have built over the last year with Two Cool Moms, and to be under the umbrella of iHeart is a truly inspiring opportunity. I can’t wait to hit the airwaves with one of the kindest and funniest talents in comedy.”

Elvis Duran notes, “I’m so excited to bring my friends Joe Gatto and Steve Byrne's incredible podcast Two Cool Moms to the Elvis Duran Podcast Network. Their comedic conversations fit perfectly with our target audience. The podcast already sounds great, and we’re excited to continue their journey by merging with us for a perfect fit within our family.”

New episodes of Two Cool Moms will be available weekly on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard. The episodes will also continue to be available on YouTube.
