Through Exactly Right Media’s exclusive distribution and co-production partnership with iHeart, host Jake Brennan’s popular series will also join iHeartPodcasts’ network of shows

LOS ANGELES – April 9, 2026 – Exactly Right Media (ERM), the podcast network behind “My Favorite Murder,” and iHeartPodcasts welcome award-winning true crime podcaster Jake Brennan and his hit podcasts “Disgraceland” and its celebrity spin-off “Hollywoodland” to their joint slate of shows. “Disgraceland” and “Hollywoodland” will continue to be produced by Double Elvis and executive produced by ERM and iHeartPodcasts.

Since its launch in 2018, “” has become one of the most successful music podcasts in the world revealing the deeply human, highly dramatic, true crime–fueled chaos behind legendary musicians. Known for its award-winning cinematic sound design and immersive storytelling, this weekly series explores the dark side of legendary artists like Amy Winehouse, Jerry Lee Lewis, the Grateful Dead, Blondie and more. The show dives into music history like it’s never been heard before—edge-of-the-seat stories exploding with drama and the kind of information that will make listeners dangerous at dinner parties.

“‘My Favorite Murder’ was one of the podcasts that inspired me to create ‘Disgraceland’ and the folks at iHeart were some of the first to believe in the show,” said Brennan. “After I launched ‘Disgraceland,’ Karen, Georgia and I became friends, and there always seemed to be this unspoken shared willingness to work with each other at some point. That point in time is now, and I couldn’t be happier. What they’ve built with the Exactly Right Network is truly inspiring, and there seems to be enormous cross-over potential between fans of ‘My Favorite Murder’ and ‘Disgraceland.’ Like Karen and Georgia, Murderinos have great taste in music, so this partnership makes perfect sense.”

“We are thrilled to welcome our old friend Jake Brennan to the Exactly Right network,” says CEO Karen Kilgariff. “We’ve always loved the incredible shows he makes and so does our audience, so it’s a match made in podcasting heaven.” 

As part of the deal, “,” the first true spin-off of “Disgraceland,” will also join the Exactly Right Media slate of shows. Hosted and produced by Brennan, the series meets at the corner of Hollywood and true crime and explores the lives of some of the most celebrated actors and actresses through the true crimes that have most impacted them. Show topics include the mysterious death of Brittany Murphy; David Lynch and the real-life brutal murder that inspired Twin Peaks; Steve McQueen’s brush with Charles Manson and many more. 

“Jake Brennan is one of the most compelling storytellers in podcasting, and ‘Disgraceland’ and ‘Hollywoodland’ are true standouts in the industry,” said Will Pearson, President of iHeartPodcasts. “These shows draw listeners in with unforgettable narratives that keep them coming back week after week. We’re excited to deepen our partnership with Exactly Right Media and to help grow these incredible series across iHeartPodcasts.”

New episodes of “” drop every Tuesday along with additional listener-driven bonus episodes on Thursdays and curated “Rewind” releases from the show’s extensive archive each Sunday. Scripted episodes of “” post on Mondays, with bonus episodes on Wednesdays and Fridays. All Exactly Right Media shows are distributed by iHeartPodcasts and are available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard.
