The Always Sunny Podcast E05 Teaser: Howerton Sees What's Going On

In the immortal words of then-VP Joe Biden, this week is a "big f***ing deal" for Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton, Rob McElhenney, Kaitlin Olson & Danny DeVito as FXX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia marks its return for its record-setting 15th season with a two-episode debut this Wednesday. But fans don't have to wait until the middle of the week to get their Paddy's fix, with Day, Howerton & McElehenney dropping a new episode of the "The 'Always Sunny' Podcast." Having covered "The Gang Gets Racist" (review), "Charlie Wants An Abortion" (review), "Underage Drinking: A National Concern" (review), and "Charlie Has Cancer" (review), the trio is moving on to the fifth episode of the first season, "Gun Fever." But while Day, Howerton & McElehenney continue debating over how much structure the podcast will actually have (bless your patience, Megan Ganz), we actually have a teaser for this week's episode that gets to the heart of that.

In the following clip, Howerton calls out what's been quietly developing over the past four episodes. Essentially, that he's becoming the default host. And he wants to make it clear that he's not having any of it. Even if it means… dead air!!
