In response he announced his own website, called [Scream Into the Void](http://screamintothevoid.com/ "undefined"), which is exactly what it advertises: a place to shout (or at least type) things into the abyss of the Internet to never be heard again. It’s a strangely satisfying exercise in the relentless inanity of the Internet — and no one gets hurt. If users still have an inexplicable desire to have an app that will judge them, Oliver has an app for that too: Peeble. Instead of letting strangers on the Internet judge you, leave the judging to someone you can trust, specifically Mario Van Peebles. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4060843/john-oliver-mario-van-peebles-last-week-tonight/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4060843/john-oliver-mario-van-peebles-last-week-tonight/"},"headline":"Watch John Oliver and Mario Van Peebles Launch a New App","datePublished":"2015-10-05T09:25:55.000Z","dateModified":"2026-03-31T08:45:55.786Z","description":"After Peeple, anything is possible","url":"https://time.com/4060843/john-oliver-mario-van-peebles-last-week-tonight/","keywords":["Television","Technology","apps","John Oliver","Last Week Tonight"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4060843/john-oliver-mario-van-peebles-last-week-tonight/","name":"Watch John Oliver and Mario Van Peebles Launch a New App"}}]}] ```
