The comedienne and her partner Tom Leonardis will work on ideas for Investigation Discovery and Science Channel through their Whoop Inc production company. As part of the agreement, at least one of their programmes must be greenlit.
Goldberg told Variety: "Since I'm really curious about the world, what better place for Tom and me to exercise this interest than at Discovery?"
Goldberg's production firm has produced the series Strong Medicine and the TV movie The Piano Man's Daughter.
