LOS ANGELES, Jan. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- PodcastOne, a leading podcast platform and a subsidiary of LiveXLive Media (NASDAQ: LIVX) ("LiveXLive"), announced today that it has secured the distribution and advertising sales rights to Todd and Julie Chrisley's "Chrisley Confessions" podcast.
Since its debut, Chrisley Confessions has consistently been a top performing podcast. In addition to being some of the most popular reality stars of their time, Todd and Julie Chrisley are also sought-after social influencers with a combined following that tops the 5 million mark.
The Chrisley Confessions podcast launched in 2018 with hosts Todd and Julie Chrisley. In each episode, the beloved duo play audience voicemails and offer advice, suggestions and opinions on all things faith, family, food and well, just about everything else.
"Julie and I are looking forward to being part of the long tradition of outspoken and irreverent hosts in the PodcastOne family. And anyone who knows me knows that family means more to me than anything," said Todd Chrisley.
The Chrisley family shot to superstardom when their hit reality show Chrisley Knows Best, featuring the antics of the outspoken Chrisley and his family, debuted on USA Network in 2014. Todd Chrisley is a self-made millionaire, successful entrepreneur and producer having created content for USA Network and Netflix.
Brash, outspoken, opinionated, with a razor-sharp Southern wit, he keeps his family in line through his brutally honest form of parenting. The self-proclaimed "Patriarch of Perfection" attempts to keep everyone in line and help prevent their catastrophes even though they're inevitable sometimes.
Julie Chrisley is the daughter of a Baptist minister and is Todd's best friend - a talented chef and a "super mom" who does it all. A strong-minded woman, she's not afraid to say what she thinks and cook what she wants – whether Todd likes it, or not. Throughout her 25-year marriage to Todd, Julie has always been the "calm one" and is able to handle Todd's fiery personality, putting him in line whenever he needs it. Julie is a breast cancer survivor who has a deep appreciation for life and tries to teach Todd and their beloved children to not sweat the small stuff and enjoy life to the fullest.
"When we founded PodcastOne, we launched with some of the most outspoken hosts in the genre, including Adam Carolla, Kaitlyn Bristowe, Perez Hilton, Jordan Harbinger and The LadyGang. The addition of Chrisley Confessions and Todd and Julie to our stable of shows carries on our tradition of offering listeners the sort of honest, straightforward and hilarious content they seek," said PodcastOne's President, Kit Gray.
