Pawn Stars' Rick Harrison and Chumlee Set to Launch 'Pawn After Dark' Podcast in Vegas
Rick Harrison and Austin "Chumlee" Russell from "Pawn Stars" are launching a new podcast called "Pawn After Dark" in January, streaming across major platforms. The podcast will feature celebrity interviews and item appraisals, recorded from a private studio above the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas.

The first episodes will include notable guests such as Raiders owner Mark Davis, ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons, and BMX cyclist T.J. Lavin. Each guest will bring an item for Harrison and Russell to appraise during the show.

The duo's relationship dates back to when Chumlee befriended Rick's son Corey in middle school, eventually leading to Chumlee's employment at the pawn shop at age 21. While Corey, known as "Big Hoss" on the show, was likely invited to participate, he has recently relocated to Tulum, Mexico.

The podcast will be recorded in the same studio where the TV show currently films its transactions. Interestingly, only the first season of "Pawn Stars" was filmed in the actual shop - subsequent seasons moved upstairs due to overwhelming crowds of fans disrupting business operations. Unlike the TV show, "Pawn After Dark" will be produced independently of the History Channel.
