Steve from “Blue’s Clues” Will Interview a Porn Star on His New Podcast

Steve Burns from Blue’s Clues is back, but this time he’s trading in his handy-dandy notebook for a microphone. Steve’s new podcast Alive launches September 17, and let’s be clear: this is not kids’ stuff.

Yes, Steve might forever be remembered as the friendly host who helped preschoolers solve paw-print mysteries, but his new show is made for adults. Case in point, one of his first guests is Maitland Ward, the former Boy Meets World star who left sitcoms behind for a career in adult film. That’s… a pretty big leap from mail time.

And she’s not the only unexpected name joining Steve. Other confirmed guests include Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne, Congressman Ro Khanna, and the legendary Jamie Lee Curtis.

The topics? Heavy ones, like sex and death, which is about as far as you can get from singing about the color blue with a cartoon puppy.

For anyone tempted to crown him the next Mr. Rogers, Steve has already shut that down. He told People, “That is a weight that I do not wish to carry around, and that is a bar that I cannot possibly… no one could possibly… live up to. That dude should be on our money.” He added, with classic self-deprecating humor, “I’m just a neurotic bald guy who is sitting next to you, a fellow traveler on the struggle bus.”

Steve has popped up in recent years to give nostalgic pep talks that hit Millennials right in the feels, so fans already know he has a way of tackling deep topics with honesty. Alive looks like his chance to expand that voice into longer, more unfiltered conversations.

So if you grew up with Steve helping you find “a clue, a clue,” get ready for a version of him that’s wiser, funnier, and a lot more candid. Just don’t expect any handy-dandy notebooks.

Steve from “Blue’s Clues” Is Launching a Podcast for Grown-Ups

Ready to feel all the nostalgic feels? Steve Burns – the original, green-striped-shirt-wearing host of “Blue’s Clues” – is officially stepping into the podcast world. But this time, he’s not talking to Salt, Pepper, or Mailbox. He’s talking to you.

Steve’s new podcast is called “Alive“, and it’s aimed at the generation who grew up with him and might now be quietly spiraling into adulthood.

Each weekly episode will explore what it means to “stay human in a complicated world.” Think: self-reflection, curiosity, and probably fewer cartoon chairs with faces.

Burns says the inspiration came from his viral 2021 video marking the 25th anniversary of “Blue’s Clues”, where he popped back into our lives to say he never forgot us … and yes, we cried.

In describing “Alive”, Steve said, “There are a thousand podcasts you can listen to, this is one that listens back.”

He wants to pick up right where he left off decades ago, but with grown-up themes like connection, curiosity, and asking deeper questions.

In other words, this is still a show about following clues, just not the crayon-drawn kind.And in case you’re worried that this is going to be all introspection and no fun, Steve promises there will still be a little lightness sprinkled in. “There will be LESS talking furniture,” he said, “but there will still be some fun along the way.”

The show is expected to drop this fall, and judging by the buzz around it already, “Alive” might just be the cozy, thoughtful podcast hug our collective inner child needs.

So, whether you’re solving existential mysteries or just need a reminder that someone still believes in you, Steve is back.
