It's that time of year again. The Grinch, played by me, James Austin Johnson, is back and jollier than never.

Whoville's sassiest late-night talk show host returns for season three of Tis the Grinch holiday podcast with a sleigh full of A-list guests like the Jonas Brothers, Mark Hamill, and Gronk, just to name a few.

Not to brag, but this year's lineup is sweeter than a cup full of nog.

Are you about to spend five hours in the car with your beloved kids this holiday season,

driving old Granny's house?

I am picturing screaming, fighting, back-to-back hours of the K-pop Demon Hunter's soundtrack on repeat.

Well, when your ears start to bleed, I have the perfect thing to keep you from

rolling out of that moving vehicle, and it's something for the whole family. Listen to Tis

the Grinch Holiday Podcast, wherever you get your podcasts. I'm about to play a clip from Tis

the Grinch Holiday Podcast. Follow Tis the Grinch Holiday Podcast on the Wondery app, or wherever

you get your podcasts. Please welcome Nick, Joe, and Kevin, the Jonas Brothers. What's up, guys? How you doing? Hello, hello. Yeah. So happy to be here. We're big fans. Love what you've done with the place. Oh, thank you. Yeah, the mold is a nice touch. Thank you, yeah. There was crown molding here, and I said, no, you don't understand. I want black mold. Yeah. It shows. Okay. Mr. Grinch, can I ask you a quick quick?

Sure.

What is that... There was crown molding here, and I said, no, you don't understand. I want black mold.

Yeah, it shows.

Okay.

Mr. Grinch, can I ask you a quick quick? Sure. What does that smell? You're going to have to be more specific. I think it's coming from that hallway. Oh, down there. It burns a little bit. Yeah, yeah. Well, I'm burning some incense to try to cover up the smell of laundry that I have kind of not dealt with for a couple years. Okay. Well, do you have any, like, plugs we could use for

our nose or anything? No. From one heartthrob to a trio of heartthrobs, which one of you is the

most heartthrobius? This is my first question, okay? I really want to know this. And feel free to, like, vehemently argue about it in front of me. I love to sow discord among family members. Well, I think we all have our moments, but I think Kevin's really a shined at the moment. It's doing a great job. Wow. Thanks, Nick. Appreciate that.

I disagree.

Classic Joe.

I think on weekends I can be max heartthrobb. That's true. You need some runway to get heartthrobby. You need that free Saturday. Yeah. He's got to work up to it. The scruff's got to get to that perfect level. You know, you shave on Monday by Saturday.

It's like right where it needs to be.
