Brooklyn Nine-Nine stars reunite for new project
Brooklyn Nine-Nine co-stars Stephanie Beatriz and Melissa Fumero will team up for a new podcast executive produced by Wilmer Valderrama.
Beatriz and Fumero, best known for their roles as Rosa Diaz and Amy Santiago on NBC's police comedy series, will dispense advice about life and share some embarrassing stories in podcast More Better with Stephanie and Melissa, set to launch on May 30.
Produced by iHeartMedia's My Cultura Network, the comedy podcast is produced by Valderrama's company WV Sound.

"Melissa and I are in a consistent and hilarious ongoing discussion: it's been a part of my life since we first met almost ten years ago," Beatriz said in a statement with Deadline.
"We can't wait to let listeners (and hopefully new friends!) come along as we try to get a little more better at… honestly everything!" she continued.
"I wouldn't call either of us an expert at anything really! But we're willing to laugh at all of our failures and engage in bad grammar for this podcast."
Fumero added: "I am so excited to partner with Wilmer, the whole My Cultura team, and the good folks at iHeart on this new venture of podcasting with one of my favourite people in the whole world, Stephanie Beatriz. I hope each week we can make you smile, laugh, feel seen, and maybe add a little joy to your day."

Valderrama highlighted the important work My Cultura — which he is a stakeholder in — is doing in amplifying Latinx voices.
"It's been a dream being able to collaborate with my dear friends Melissa and Stephanie," the NCIS star said.
"More Better is the next chapter in elevating and expanding the Latino reach in mainstream media. I am beyond grateful for the partnership WV Sound has built with iHeartMedia's My Cultura Network and that we are continuing to deliver content that uplifts the voices of my community."
More Better with Stephanie and Melissa premieres on May 30.
