**”Dancing With the Stars” Launches Official Podcast Hosted by Season 33 Winner Joey Graziadei**

**LOS ANGELES, CA –** Get ready to dance behind the scenes! “Dancing With the Stars” is launching its first official podcast, hosted by Season 33 champion Joey Graziadei. The podcast will premiere on September 18, just two days after the highly anticipated Season 34 premiere on ABC and Disney+.

Each Thursday, listeners and viewers can tune in as Graziadei sits down with current cast members, celebrity contestants, and other special guests to deliver exclusive behind-the-scenes access, in-depth performance breakdowns, and insider insights. The “Dancing With the Stars Official Podcast,” produced by BBC Studios, will be available on Disney+ and Hulu with video, offering a unique viewing experience.

Graziadei, known for his charming personality and winning smile, brings a wealth of firsthand experience to the podcast. Before winning the coveted Mirrorball Trophy in November 2024 alongside partner Jenna Johnson, he captured hearts as a contestant on “The Bachelorette” and later as the leading man on “The Bachelor,” where he became engaged to Kelsey Anderson.

“I couldn’t be more excited and honored to be joining the ‘Dancing with the Stars’ team in this new way, bringing audiences exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes content,” Graziadei said. “I have so many great memories from my time competing (and winning didn’t hurt), so I can’t think of a better way to connect with contestants and bring deeper conversations and fun moments to the podcast space.”

The “Dancing With the Stars Official Podcast” is part of a broader video podcast initiative at Disney, following the launch of a companion podcast for “Only Murders in the Building.” Other Disney shows slated to receive their own podcasts include “Paradise,” “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” “Murdaugh: Death in the Family,” “Percy Jackson and the Olympians,” and “Tell Me Lies.”

Prepare to waltz into a world of dance, drama, and dazzling insights with the “Dancing With the Stars Official Podcast”!
