Los Angeles, CA – May 12, 2026 – PodcastOne (Nasdaq: PODC), a leading publisher and podcast sales network, announced today the network launch of It’s Okay, We’re All Gonna Die with Nurse Julie podcast and the acquisition of Life Happens with Barb and Michelle podcast further strengthening its growing roster of top, cross genre podcast programming.
“Mental health and wellness continues to be one of the most engaging podcast genres, and these two new additions to PodcastOne podcasts reflect our commitment to investing in premium and informative content that resonates with audiences,” said Kit Gray, President and Co-Founder of PodcastOne.
It’s Okay, We’re All Gonna Die with Nurse Julie, Bad news: we’re all going to die. Good news: it might be the best motivation you’ll ever have. In It’s Okay, We’re All Gonna Die, Hospice Nurse Julie brings her honest, compassionate, and surprisingly funny perspective from years at the bedside of people at the end of life. Through conversations with guests and real questions from listeners, Julie opens up the discussion most people avoid: death. This podcast isn’t about being morbid. It’s about getting real. Because when you understand how life ends, you start to see more clearly how to live: love your people, stop sweating the small stuff, and focus on what actually matters. If we’re all going to die anyway, let’s learn how to really live first.
Life Happens with Barb and Michelle is your guide to navigating the twists, turns, and beautifully messy moments of life. Hosted by Barb and Michelle, a dynamic mother-daughter duo and the Co-Founders of Peaceful Mind Peaceful Life®, this podcast dives into the growth, shifts, and self-discovery that define our journeys. Together, they explore what it truly means to live authentically, strengthen mental health, embrace change, and rise after every stumble. Tune in for heartfelt conversations, insights, and inspiration to help you thrive in every chapter of your story.
