Smartless
A comedy talk podcast featuring three veteran actors interviewing mystery celebrity guests in improvised, authentic conversations filled with humor and surprising revelations.
Each episode begins with one of the three hosts (Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, or Will Arnett) surprising the other two with a mystery guest. What follows is a genuinely improvised conversation exploring the guest's career, background, and personal stories with warmth and unpredictable tangents. The show has cultivated a loyal audience with its organic chemistry between hosts and ability to draw out candid moments from A-list celebrities. Originally acquired by Amazon for $80 million in 2021, the podcast moved to SiriusXM in 2024 for a reported $100 million-plus deal, giving subscribers early access a week before other platforms.
