Manning's former center and best friend Shaun O'Hara will also contribute each episode.

"When Eli returned to the organization, one of our goals was to showcase his unique relationship with the Giants and our fan base," Giants Chief Commercial Officer Pete Guelli said. "This show is the perfect way to illustrate that connection, and at the same time, it continues our commitment to deliver unprecedented content on Giants digital platforms."

In Episode 1, Peyton and Cooper Manning join Eli to poke fun at their brother and talk about what it takes to have a successful talk show, sharing their favorite Manning Family memories. 

Hall of Famer Michael Strahan also drops by the set to discuss Eli's historic career now that he has entered the Giants Ring of Honor and had his No. 10 jersey retired. The duo also quiz each other on their knowledge of former Giants teammates, and Strahan provides some wardrobe advice to Eli. 

"I've been honored to meet incredible people both inside and outside of sports throughout my life and career," Eli Manning said. "Whether they're athletes, entertainers or industry leaders – sometimes they're all of the above – I can't wait to bring their stories to this show. Along the way, we'll have some fun while fans can get to know me outside of what they saw on Sundays."
