The show quickly amassed a dedicated following, averaging between 100,000 and 500,000 listeners monthly. It was so popular that in 2024, less than four years after its launch, SmartLess signed a three-year $100 million deal with Sirius XM for exclusive rights to ads on the podcast.
In addition to his entertainment career, Arnett has an impressive real estate portfolio. Among his many homes are a $16.4 million Beverly Hills farmhouse and two West Village condos, which he co-owns with his ex-wife Amy Poehler.
