Exactly Right Media (ERM) and iHeartPodcasts have added Jake Brennan's "Disgraceland" and its spin-off "Hollywoodland" to their joint podcast slate, expanding their partnership in the true crime and entertainment space.

Both shows will continue to be produced by Double Elvis, with ERM and iHeartPodcasts serving as executive producers. The move brings one of the most established music-focused true crime podcasts into the Exactly Right network, alongside its celebrity-centered companion series.

Launched in 2018, "Disgraceland" explores the darker side of music history, focusing on crime and controversy surrounding well-known artists. The show has built a large audience through its narrative storytelling and cinematic production style. "Hollywoodland," a newer spin-off, examines the intersection of true crime and the film industry, covering stories tied to actors and filmmakers.

The partnership also reflects a growing alignment between audiences of "Disgraceland" and ERM's flagship true crime brand, "My Favorite Murder," with both companies pointing to crossover appeal among listeners.

Under the agreement, new episodes of "Disgraceland" will continue to release weekly with additional bonus and archival content, while "Hollywoodland" will maintain a multi-episode weekly schedule. All shows will be distributed through iHeartPodcasts and available across major podcast platforms.
