Tom Allen, better known by his alter ego Chad Kroeger, and his comedic partner JT Parr are set to conquer Netflix with their uproarious activism in the upcoming series “Chad & JT Go Deep.” Born out of their viral success, the duo has become synonymous with taking to the streets and city council meetings, using humor to shed light on what they consider the real issues in American culture.
“Chad & JT Go Deep” promises an entertaining exploration of Kroeger and Parr’s comedic activism as they navigate Southern California, addressing crucial issues with their unique brand of humor. The series, set to premiere on August 23, captures the essence of their mission: to create awareness while making people laugh. However, as their well-intentioned causes inadvertently lead to their cancellation, the duo uses their activism to reclaim the trust of the culture that embraced them.
Aside from their Netflix venture, Chad and JT are the hosts of the popular podcast “Going Deep with Chad & JT,” where they delve into current events, pay homage to legends, dissect ongoing conflicts, and offer solicited advice to callers. Their comedic flair has landed them appearances on mainstream platforms like “Hawaii Five-O,” “Ellen,” and Howard Stern’s show, earning them a spot on Variety’s esteemed “10 Comics to Watch” list in 2020.
With executive producers Tom Allen and JT Parr at the helm, along with industry heavyweights like Dave Kneebone, Tim Heidecker, Eric Wareheim, and Daniel Lucchesi, “Chad & JT Go Deep” is poised to be a hilarious and insightful addition to Netflix’s lineup, further solidifying the duo’s status as comedic trailblazers.
