Jonas Brothers launch 'Hey Jonas' podcast on iHeartMedia from May 20
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Pop-rock trio Jonas Brothers are expanding beyond music with the launch of their new weekly podcast series, 'Hey Jonas', premiering on 20 May on major audio platforms under an exclusive deal with iHeartMedia. Executive produced by the brothers themselves — Kevin, Joe, and Nick Jonas — the show promises an unfiltered, behind-the-scenes look at their lives both on and off the stage.
What 'Hey Jonas' Is About
According to reports, the podcast will 'pull fans deeper than ever into the brothers' world with an intimate, wildly fun and refreshingly unfiltered look at their lives on and off the stage.' The series will feature candid conversations covering family dynamics, life on tour, personal milestones, and moments fans rarely get to see. Kevin, Joe, and Nick will also be joined by family members, close friends, and longtime confidantes across episodes.
The Brothers in Their Own Words
In the official trailer, Kevin Jonas offered a characteristically tongue-in-cheek reason for launching the show: 'I felt like everyone in the world had a podcast, so we just felt left out. So, we needed a podcast.' Nick Jonas countered with a more earnest take, saying, 'Well, I was thinking more that we had a lot of really important things to talk about. You know, we don't spend enough time with each other as it is. So why not just fill the space between soundcheck and the show with a podcast.' Kevin quipped back, 'Where we have to be together in a closed environment even more.'
A Glimpse at the Content
The trailer offers a preview of the show's freewheeling tone — topics reportedly include whether the brothers pee in the shower, what tattoos they would get right now, and the comparative merits of sending flowers versus an Edible Arrangements fruit basket as a gift. The mix of absurd and personal reflects the show's stated aim of unfiltered brotherly candour.
Production and Platform Details
Beyond the three brothers, 'Hey Jonas' is also executive produced by Amy Sugarman and Danielle Romo for iHeartPodcasts. The exclusive iHeartMedia deal positions the series on one of the largest podcast distribution networks in the world, giving it significant reach across streaming audio platforms from day one. The weekly release format suggests a long-running run rather than a limited series.
With the podcast space increasingly crowded with celebrity-fronted shows, the Jonas Brothers' entry arrives as they continue to maintain a high-profile presence across music and entertainment — making 'Hey Jonas' a natural extension of their brand into on-demand audio.
