[upbeat music] Lisa, tell them about our new show.

We have a new podcast. It's called Don't Lie to Me.

I'm Lexi Iwano. We're two best friends, 22 years apart, but so close at heart.

And I'm Lisa DeJulio, the old one, which means we have wildly different references, occasionally different opinions, and at this point in my 50s, I've lived it all.

Now in my 30s, being the founder of New Shoes, good taste is my business.

Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[upbeat music] I'm Lacey Mosley, author, actor, stand-up comedian, creator, and host of Scam Goddess Podcast, the true crime comedy podcast all about robbery, fraud, and those who practice it. Each week, I bring on an amazing guest.

Ooh, I scammed them.

What?

I could talk to you for an hour.

You're a generational yapper, like me.

[laughs]

That's why I had to make yapping a job. And now you can catch full episodes of my show on YouTube. Start listening to Scam Goddess on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[singing] Scam Goddess.

I'm Hamza.

And I'm Martin.

And we're the hosts of Out of Character, the best podcast in the world, is what they said, yeah.

Wait, they said that?

Yeah, yeah, they said that. The best podcast with two best friends who jabber and talk about topical, trendy, funny stuff, give our input on it. That's what you've needed, I think, up until now, listener. Listen to Out of Character on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[sighs] Sometimes I just feel like a burden.

You're a bird. You fly. You're Martin, and we are Out of Character.

Character Podcast.

Dude, you messed up the clip.

[upbeat music] Hold up. Every day I wake up. Wake yo' ass up. The Breakfast Club. You all finished or y'all done? Yep, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. DJ Envy is not here, but Lauren LaRosa is, and we got a special guest in the building, man.

Indeed.

We talk about successful podcasters. This guy right here is, uh, one of the most successful podcasters in the business.

Mm-hmm.

The number-two most listened to host-led podcast in the world. He has 20 million subscribers on YouTube, and Forbes said he made a lot of money last year.

Yeah, you was on that, uh, Charlamagne.

Okay? He made a lot of money.

You made more. Charlamagne made 27.

I think it was in the 40 Ms.

It was 40? Oh, okay.

I think it was like 45 million or something like that.

Just look at that. That's about 75 million-

Ooh

... sitting over there together.

Steve Bartman-

Go ahead, black man

... Diary of a CEO is here.

I know that's right.

[laughs]

Good morning, sir.

Good morning, Steven.

Good morning. Thank
