The Eric Andre Show‘s Kraft Punk is finally getting his solo airtime. After episodes of maltreatment from hosts Eric Andre and Hannibal Buress, the cheese-loving fiend scored a television special set to air on Cartoon Network’s nighttime programming block Adult Swim.

Following in the footsteps of Eric Andre, “KRFT Punk’s Political Party” highlights Kraft Punk’s more mature side and strays away from his hidden camera antics. Described as a “political debate show set to EDM music,” the TV special focuses on a number of topics, ranging from conspiracy theories to race relations and “Satan’s influence on the electorate.” The presence of cheese has yet to be confirmed but based on the character’s previous appearances, the chances of the dairy product’s involvement seem pretty high.

KRFT Punk’s Political Party will premiere on March 8, 2019 on Adult Swim.

In more Eric Andre news, the comedian announced his new hidden camera show Bad Trip.
