While its output isn’t always exceedingly celebratory, Comedy Central should forever be lauded for constantly funneling stand-up comics into people's lives. Nerdist-friendly comedian Kurt Braunohler is being prepped as the latest funnyman to host his very own pilot for the network, and he’ll be taking on subject matter that everyone can get down with: WTF news.Should this pilot turn into something bigger, Braunohler would join the ranks of Jon Stewart and Chris Hardwick on Comedy Central’s late night schedule with. Planned as a nightly talk show, the pilot will see the comedian discussing the weirdest news bits of that given day and, according to Deadline , “revealing just how beautifully insane our world actually is.” That’s a phrase I can get behind. And while it doesn’t say whether or not Braunohler would be joined by comedian or celebrity guests, it seems likely that Comedy Central would go that route to further promote the brand.This isn’t Braunohler’s first rodeo when it comes to being a host. He currently leads, a Nerdist podcast with a revolving door of formats and guests, and he’s the former host of the IFC faux game show Bunk . Premiering in 2012 with Scott Aukerman’s’s odd approach didn’t attract a big enough audience to get renewed for a second season, but the plus side is that the comedy makes it one of the only game shows worth watching twice. The same almost goes for Hardwick’s @Midnight , which Braunohler has been a guest on multiple times. Check one of those appearances out below.Braunohler, a frequent collaborator ofactress Kristen Schaal, has a Comedy Central web series coming later this year called. The first six-episode season, called, is centered on the New Jersey native’s seven-city jet skiing trek down the Mississippi River from Chicago to New Orleans. With guest stars like Schaal, Kyle Kinane and Jon Daly, the mini-tour raised money for Heifer International to send hundreds of animals to African families in need.You can also catch Braunohler performing on a recent repeat ofon Comedy Central. For a better idea of how his stand-up works, give a listen to his segment from the network’s upcoming web-to-TV seriesThough they’re losing Stephen Colbert to CBS’at the end of the year, Comedy Central has already filled that time slot with Larry Wilmore’s topical series Minority Report . Should they decide to orderto series, there’s no reason why they can’t then create shows specifically devoted to religious news and food news. Then they can bring Norm Macdonald’sback and eventually splinter off into the 24-hour Comedy News Network, and the world will finally make sense.
