The Drawing Room With Mo Welch
Comedian Mo Welch has a new show on PBS called The Drawing Room, where she interviews people while she draws them (and her guests draw her). What a great idea for a show.
The first three episodes are live already: Brett Goldstein, Sarah Silverman, and violinist Vijay Gupta; here’s the premiere episode with Goldstein:
Each episode is only 10-12 minutes long. The lineup of guests for the rest of the season include Demi Adejuyigbe, Tig Notaro, Adam Conover, and Aparna Nancherla.

I wish I could subscribe to just that show rather than the whole PBS channel. Alas.
At least a few of them are on YouTube for free.
There is a similar tv show to this in Australia by artist Ahn Do, he paints notable public figures while he interviews them. https://iview.abc.net.au/show/anh-s-brush-with-fame

I like the addition of the guest drawing the interviewer back though!
