Khrisp Audio has announced the upcoming launch of Masala Jones, the company's first-ever podcast of an original scripted comedy created by Venk Potula and Leland Frankel. The first season of Masala Jones will be available on Apple Podcasts starting March 10, 2019.
Masala Jones takes listeners on a trip down the rabbit hole into the hilariously outrageous world of porn. When naive med school drop-out Samar Rajamouli decides to pursue his secret dream of becoming an adult film actor, he discovers an industry filled with peculiar customs, idiosyncratic characters, and unfortunately familiar prejudices. As if that wasn't enough, he also finds himself playing referee for his immigrant parents as their marriage threatens to fall apart. Becoming the first Asian-American male porn star will be a lot harder than anybody could have guessed, but on his journey to the big time, Samar just might start a revolution... or ruin his life.
The six-episode first season of Masala Jones features a cast of diverse performers, including:
Venk Potula (Veep, Wild N' Out)
Esther Ku (Girl Code, Last Comic Standing)
Timothy Stack (My Name Is Earl, Seinfeld)
Ravi Kapoor (Crossing Jordan, NCIS)
Meera Simhan (Anger Management, How To Get Away With Murder)
James Allen McCune (The Walking Dead, Shameless, Blair Witch)
Christos Vasilopoulos (Banshee, Blindspot)
Amen Igbinosun (The Last Ship, Texas Rising)
Arnold Chun (The Man In The High Castle, Rampage)
Aurora Snow (Body Worship, Filth Factory, Anal Delinquents 1-3, Dirty Dykes, Nothing But Sexxx 2, All Girls All the Time)
Riley Nixon (I Came on James Deen's Face 8, Confessions of a Sinful Nun, Submissive Wives, Unleashed, PervCity's Department of Double Penetration 2)
Masala Jones is the first-ever scripted podcast about the world of adult entertainment, and touches on themes of race, representation, and sex positivity, always with a dose of twisted humor. It’s the perfect narrative podcast for fans of Insecure, Fresh Off The Boat, and Master of None.
Season One will be available on Apple Podcasts March 10, 2019, where its trailer is already streaming. For more details, follow @MasalaJonesPodcast on Instagram, or contact its creators, [email protected] and [email protected].
