==Format== |

The show typically opens with Pollak at the table speaking directly to the viewers, which can consist of a simple introduction, an anecdote, a joke, this portion also includes sidebars with head writer, Jaime Fox, and side kick, Samm Levine.<ref name=Official>{{cite web|url=http://kevinpollakschatshow.com |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090324033201/http://kevinpollakschatshow.com/ |dead-url=yes |archive-date=2009-03-24 |title=Welcome to Kevin Pollak's Chat Show |publisher=Kevinpollakschatshow.com |date= |accessdate=2014-07-27 |df= }}</ref> The majority of the show is taken up with long-form interview segments, typically with actors, writers or comics. Initial episodes would feature 2 hour-long interviews, but subsequent shows typically feature one guest per episode, averaging two hours in length. There are also a number of "games" Pollak plays with his guests, created by Jaime. Some of these include "Who Tweeted," which Samm hosts and reads 8 messages from [[Twitter]], one at a time, all of which were written by either Paris Hilton, Justin Bieber or Tyra Banks. It's a contest between the guest and Kevin to see which can ring in and answer correctly. Each episode also includes "The Larry King Game" (also created by Jaime), in which guests perform a bad impression of TV personality [[Larry King]], exposing personal information that Larry should never, but does in fact reveal, then a throw to the phones including a funny sounding city name.<ref name="blog">[http://eeemusings.com/tag/kevin-pollak-chat-show ] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091019145121/http://eeemusings.com/tag/kevin-pollak-chat-show |date=October 19, 2009 }}</ref> In 2010 the Kevin Pollak Chat Show was nominated for several [[Streamy Awards]] and won Best Live Show on the Internet. |

==History== |
|||
''Kevin Pollak's Chat Show'' started after [[Kevin Pollak]] met internet entrepreneur [[Jason Calacanis]] at an underground poker game in Los Angeles. Pollak shared his vision for a web-based, live-streaming talk show with Calacanis. [[Mahalo.com]], Calacanis' startup, had recently built a studio around the [[NewTek]] TriCaster and Calacanis offered to produce Pollak's show. The show is among the most popular podcasts for download on iTunes and had a strong following on its own website. The Chat Show is available in both audio and video format. On March 13, 2013 it was announced that they had joined the [[Earwolf]] network. The show began streaming on YouTube as of episode 165 on March 28, 2013. |
