Listen to “Delivering Happiness” now, HERE

NEW YORK — July 22, 2026 — TikTok and iHeartPodcasts, the No. 1 podcast publisher globally according to Podtrac, today announced that the original celebrity-driven series “Delivering Happiness” created by Lawrence Longo with Prince St. Pizza and hosted by actor Nick Turturro, is now available for the first time as a podcast joining the growing slate on the TikTok Podcast Network. Listen to “Delivering Happiness” HERE.

Born from the New York institution that turned pepperoni-loaded square slices into a cultural phenomenon, the feel-good series "Delivering Happiness" has built a loyal following by pairing celebrity guests with a surprisingly simple premise: real pizza deliveries and unscripted conversations, blending New York attitude and laughter with the universal power of sharing a slice.

Hosted by actor Nick Turturro, "Delivering Happiness" follows the longtime entertainer as he swaps movie sets for pizza routes, making real deliveries and stepping into candid conversations with celebrities, athletes and creators. The series was born after conversations between Turturro and Prince St. Pizza’s Chief Executive Officer, Lawrence Longo, about getting involved with the brand. Longo had one requirement: if Turturro wanted in, he had to deliver pizzas. The result is a show where no one knows exactly what will happen when the door opens. 

Since its debut, the series has featured an eclectic lineup of guests including Spike Lee, Ice-T, Bill Burr, Dana White, Seth Rollins, Christina Milian and Alex Rodriguez. Equal parts pizza delivery, street-level talk show and cultural time capsule, "Delivering Happiness" captures the moments that happen when people least expect them.

Unlike traditional celebrity interview formats, "Delivering Happiness" centers on the moments between destinations. The talks that unfold naturally in cars, on front porches, inside neighborhood shops and anywhere else a delivery might lead. For Prince St., the show represents a natural extension of the brand's identity and a new way to engage audiences beyond the restaurant experience.

Founded in Manhattan’s Nolita neighborhood over a decade ago, Prince St. Pizza has become a national destination for its crave-worthy square pies, now served at more than 19 locations across the U.S. The full collection of episodes is available online, with episodes continuing to spotlight the personalities, humor and human connections that emerge from the simple act of delivering pizza. 

"We're building the TikTok Podcast Network around voices and formats that feel original and culturally relevant, and Delivering Happiness is a great example of that," said Dan Page, Global Head of Global Media and Licensing Partnerships at TikTok. "Nick Turturro and Prince St. Pizza have created something that's entertaining, approachable and uniquely their own, and we're thrilled to bring the show to podcast audiences."

"Great podcasts create moments people want to be part of, and 'Delivering Happiness' does exactly that," said Will Pearson, President of iHeartPodcasts. "Nick Turturro has a way of turning a simple pizza delivery into an authentic conversation you can't script. We're excited to bring the series to podcast listeners through the TikTok Podcast Network."

"Pizza has always been the great connector," said Lawrence Longo, CEO of Prince St. Pizza. "People let their guard down around pizza. They tell stories they weren't planning to tell. They laugh harder. The conversations become real. What started as an experiment turned into something much bigger than we expected, and we're excited to bring it to a much larger audience through iHeart and TikTok."
