Josh Gates Tonight

Josh Gates heads back into the world for a night of big mysteries and bigger guests. Josh welcomes Oscar winner Matthew McConaughey, joins Expedition X's Phil Torres and Jessica Chobot on their latest adventure and talks to Dean Haglund of The X Files.

Josh Gates explores the edges of our world and outer space as he talks to adventurer Ranulph Fiennes and NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley. Josh takes on the urban jungle in a new way -- as a dog musher.

Josh gives thanks -- yes, even during 2020 -- with Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives star Guy Fieri, Cheryl Hines of Curb Your Enthusiasm and Alfonso Ribeiro of The Fresh Prince. World Champion Turkey Carver Paul Kelly shows Josh how to slice up his bird.

Josh Gates celebrates all things superhero with The Mandalorian's Katee Sackoff, "Spiderman" and "True Blood" star Joe Mangienello and Famke Janssen of "X-Men." Plus, Josh sees if he has superpowers when he rumbles on the set of Battlebots.

Josh lifts off into outer space to interview Mayim Bialik from "Big Bang Theory," NASA astronaut and moonwalker Charlie Duke and star of "2001: A Space Odyssey" Keir Dullea. Later, Josh takes on zero gravity to see if he can survive the "vomit comet."

Josh is in the holiday spirit with star of "A Christmas Story" Peter Billingsley, actress Judy Greer of "Uncle Frank" and "The Wedding Planner" as well as Reginald VelJohnson of "Die Hard." Josh also learns what it's like to be a real-life Elf on a Shelf.

Josh Gates explores Discovery's brand-new streaming platform, discovery+, with some of its biggest stars including David Schwimmer, Mike Rowe, Faruq Tauheed of Battlebots as well as Freddy Dodge and Juan Ibarra from Gold Rush.
