The Audible series is called The True Story of The Coward Brothers and has Costello and Burnett playing Henry and Howard Coward. They're interviewed by a radio host played by Harry Shearer (The Simpsons, This Is Spinal Tap) as they talk about their career and how their manager persuaded them to fake their own deaths. The series, which also debuts on November 21st, was directed by Christopher Guest (This Is Spinal Tap, Best In Show) and also stars Rhea Seehorn (Better Call Saul).
