The Miz (WWE Superstar)
This is all me. Those are lights from Amazon. Those are lights from Amazon. This TV is just like Apple TV mirrored in, like, I got it all.
Joe Jonas
Oh, it's a great setup. Are we in your house?
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Thank you. You are in my house. This is my theater.
Joe Jonas
You can give us your address or you can give us like a general area.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
I'm in Vegas. Vegas. I was.
Joe Jonas
So you live in Vegas now?
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Yeah, so I. I just moved here about a year ago. And yeah, I mean, I was in L. A for a while. I mean, we used to go to Unbreakable, right?
State Farm Insurance Voice
Yeah, we used to work out together.
Joe Jonas
Congrats on the sale. I saw from your realtors. Realtors, Instagram.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Trust me, he's all over it. He's all over that. But it's been, it's been a long time. Like it was 17 months to get. Sell that house. But that house was so amazing. So incredible.
Kevin Jonas
Got.
Joe Jonas
You were in Brent.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Westlake Village.
Joe Jonas
Westlake Village, Cool.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
So I was in L. A for a while and then that, like, right by Unbreakable, where we used to work out.
State Farm Insurance Voice
Yeah.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
And I was. My house kept on getting like burglarized like some on a live show. So you know how they always tell you when you're on Instagram? Don't, don't put out like, where you are. I wouldn't. But my live show, Monday night Raw and Friday night Smackdown, People know exactly where I am.
Joe Jonas
And was your family at home? Any of these things happen?
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
That's, that's exactly what happened. So my mother in law was home and literally we can see like the burglars trying to get in. But I have a dog that was a Doberman. She passed away unfortunately. But she like saved. Saved my mother in law's life. Like, basically because there was like five people about to like break in. But my dog scared them all away. They hopped over the fence. I had a huge fence too, by the way. Like, it was like legit. Like, I had everything. So I was like, all right, I'm about to have kids. I gotta get out of here. So I moved to Austin. Did not, like, Austin didn't like the weather, didn't like the traffic. Airport is literally like not directs ever. So I need directs because we travel every week with wwe.
Joe Jonas
Of course.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
So then I move back, found Westlake Village, found a guard gated community, was loving it there. And then my wife and I were just like, why are we paying so much in taxes? Like, what are we doing? Like, why don't we just move to like a tax free state? Y And so we looked at Vegas and found this house that we absolutely loved. We, we, we just love the bones of it. So my wife, basically the amazing decorator that she is, literally remodeled the whole house, made it look incredible. And now we sold the house in Westlake Village. We are happy and healthy in Las Vegas and got to your beautiful voice, Joe, at the, at the Allegiant stadium wrestle. By the way, can I just say this? I knew you had a good voice. I've always known you guys have great voices. Right. But the national anthem is a whole nother world.
Popsicle Flavor Feud Announcer
Yeah.
Kevin Jonas
Like, we don't like doing it, nor do we really ever do it.
Joe Jonas
Yeah, it's.
State Farm Insurance Voice
It's one of the tougher songs to sing.
Joe Jonas
It's actually a song that we wrote. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
By the way, I wasn't done complimenting you.
Joe Jonas
Yeah, I'll take action.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
I was in awe. I was in awe at, like, how well you did the national anthem at Allegiant Stadium for WrestleMania. It was incredible. Dude, you should be real. I mean, I was, I was proud. I was like, yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Joe Jonas
Well, it's all very patriotic. Little backstory there for you is that we, like, as a band, we've always said we would never. We're like, we've done it once. Because I was like looking up, I'm like, when's the last time I did this? We're singing at the national anthem during the George W. Bush administration. And right as we start. Or singing it, by the way, to the. To the South Lawn. South Lawn for an Easter egg roll that they host every year. And you see like, like, like dun, dun, dun. Like Darth Vader just George W. Bush come out of the shadows behind Kevin as we start singing it. It's crazy and it's so funny and we sound, let's just say, not great. And these. I don't know what.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
I don't.
Joe Jonas
We were obviously nervous, and I think from that day we were like, we're never going to do this.
Kevin Jonas
This is not something we do.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Is it harder as A band or as individuals to do it.
Joe Jonas
Yeah, I think as a band, it's tricky because you have to. Then you have the pressure of being like, all right, guys, now let's harmonize.
Kevin Jonas
And you have a.
Joe Jonas
And usually it's acapella, and you're fighting this reverb. And as you, I'm sure, know, and you deal with this all the time, like in a place in a Stadium where WrestleMania and WWE often takes place. When you're on a microphone, you have headphones, you're hearing your voice. Do you tell me if I'm wrong? Would you. Is it okay we call you the Miss?
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Yeah, I'm great. The miss is good.
State Farm Insurance Voice
Mr. Miss.
Joe Jonas
When you're in a. In a stadium like that, do you hear yourself like that, like, reverb, like, slap back at you?
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
So it's. It's interesting because it's like, I guess I can talk to you guys about this because you actually know when you're in a theater, when you're in an arena and you. When you're in a stadium, it's completely different sound.
Joe Jonas
Break it down for people at home. Break it down.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
So. So I hosted the WWE hall of Fame, which was in a theater. And in a theater, I can feel an audience because they're right. They're kind of right on top of you. Right. They're like, right there. There's maybe like thousand people there. 2000. If you have a, you know, a bigger theater and, you know, you can feel the energy. You can hear the energy when you're in an arena. It's. It's a whole nother thing because it's. It's. It's all the way. You're playing to the last person in the last row. Right? That's what our goal is. But then when you're in a stadium, it bounces back so you. The crowd reaction. And that's what I'm always listening to whenever I'm in an. Like in a match, like, I'm listening to the audience to hear where they are. Okay. I need to do X, Y and Z to get them to where I need to be to either start this comeback, go from my finisher, do certain things. So I'm always thinking, always listening to an audience to get them where they need to be. And so for an arena, it's simple because that's where we've. We've basically known and we know, but when we go to the stadium, it's a completely different element. You got to actually wait, like a beat for them, because usually it starts in the front and then it elevates to the back. And by the time it gets to the back, that's 20, 20 seconds, 30 seconds. And so you kind of got to wait for it and hear it back. So when I was cutting a promo, it's like, hello, hello, hello, hello. You know, it's like you hear that kind of. That echo, if you will.
Kevin Jonas
That happened to me when we were doing an award show and I was on the mic and I literally heard my voice back and I started
Apple College Ad Narrator
and
Kevin Jonas
I just, like, slowed down and I could.
Joe Jonas
And Nick and I are in the corners watching Space. We're like, oh, no.
Kevin Jonas
And I'm like, I just started melting. And then I started sweating. And then it was terrible.
Joe Jonas
We had a big fight about it.
Kevin Jonas
Joe got so mad at me. I'm like, I'm sorry. It was like I couldn't do anything about it.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Kevin, what are you doing?
Kevin Jonas
It was like that over me, like, messing up on live tv. I'm like, I'm the one that's embarrassed.
Joe Jonas
We should probably say this, too, that the Miz and me and Nick, I believe we go way back. We used to train at a gym in LA called Unbreakable.
State Farm Insurance Voice
Yep. Back in the golden days.
Joe Jonas
Your wife was there as well.
State Farm Insurance Voice
It was above. It was a pink taco.
Joe Jonas
It was the strangest.
Kevin Jonas
I went there with you once.
Joe Jonas
That was cool. Pink tacos. No more. I just closed down. It's like, go eat pink taco, greasy
State Farm Insurance Voice
tacos and then go up there and work out.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
How crazy was that place? Like, literally, it was like Tio would walk in Sylvester Stallone alone. Like. And it's in this hole in the wall gym that is just, like, in the back of a pink taco.
Kevin Jonas
It was really.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
But it was amazing. Like, the trainers. The trainers were second to none. Like, I still talk to Matt Blank all the time.
Joe Jonas
Yeah.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
But he's in Hawaii.
Kevin Jonas
Yeah. I called him yesterday because I was trying to work out. And he's like. I'm like, hey, are you in town in la? I have the morning. He's like, I'm in Hawaii. And I was like, oh, Kevin's on his.
State Farm Insurance Voice
His near. His near 40 fitness journey at the moment. Getting shredded. He's getting shredded.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Good for you. I'm 45 now. 45.
State Farm Insurance Voice
Any tips?
Kevin Jonas
Yeah, give me that past 40 tips.
Joe Jonas
Actually, let's break it down. How often are we training? Miss, what do you. What's your.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
I train at least three times a week. Usually. It's like weight training three times a week. Cardio like on, let's do like three, a three and then a twelve incline and for like thirty minutes.
Kevin Jonas
Yeah, three twelve, thirty.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
On a treadmill. On a treadmill, yeah. So yeah, yeah, you know, it's, it's really easy. But everything that's my, that's like my cardio. But I do three times a week with weight training. But then, then you know what I did? I got my blood tested and that was a very big deal. Like you kids, Joe and Nick don't have to worry about this. Me and Kevin have to figure this stuff out because we get tired now. Like, I've got two girls that are 6 and 8 that are literally like
Kevin Jonas
got me going over here.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Yeah. I mean it's, it's a lot of work. Right. So for sure I need energy, I need everything. So I got my blood tested and they were just like, look, you're, you're, you're low on vitamin D. You needed to get your, your fish oils DHEA as well as a one a day. And since I've been doing that, like I feel great. Like I really do. Like I'm, I. Wow.
Kevin Jonas
The supplement thing is awesome when you, it really is.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
And so you, when you get your blood tested, you find out what you're deficient in and what you need basically for your body to activate at an optimal level. And so I've been working with a ways to. Well down in, down in Austin and they've just been like literally picking up my energy and, and I've been feeling great and I'm 45 and I'm still traveling each and every week, still doing Friday night Smackdown on the USA Network hosted American Gladiators, which is now on Prime. I mean it's literally a nonstop. Not to mention being, trying to be the best husband, trying to be the best father. I think we all know what it's like to have like so many hands in different jobs and different things, but also wanting to be the best dad and best husband you could possibly be.
Kevin Jonas
So what do you think you're, you're biggest thing is being that busy. Like you are traveling. Like how you make yourself feel present when you're at home with the family and the girls.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
It's a lot of phone, right? Like I feel like nowadays like even I catch myself doing it and in my wife and I'll be like, God, I'm so sorry. I just been on my phone trying, everyone's texting me, hey, what are you doing that you need to get this done? Hey, can you got time for this do you have this? And I'm like, oh, my God. But then I'm just realizing, I'm like, set the phone down, Mike. Get in the pool with your daughters. Hang out with them. That's all they want to do is play with you. Go wrestle with them. Take him to Jiu Jitsu, which I started. I brought him to Jiu Jitsu because I saw, like, on a podcast, like, they were like, look, when your daughters get older, they need to defend themselves. And with Jiu Jitsu, they'll be able to defend themselves if they have the right technique with a 300 pound man. And I'm like, all right, I got to get him in Jiu Jitsu. So now when I take him to Jiu Jitsu, I bring him back home and we come actually, like, right there, there's a big, like, kind of cool.
Joe Jonas
I was wondering, like, if you have a setup at home.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Yeah, it's like a carpet area right there that literally we wrestle. Oh. So I. I listen to what the teacher teaches them and then we go home and I implement them on them and try to get them kind of locked in and knowing what exactly it is, it's. It's a blast. And they love it. They love wrestling, believe it or not. Shockingly, like, you know, but every time, every time I tell them, I'm like, all right, before we wrestle, you gotta lock up. So I teach them, like, the. The number one thing you. You learn in wwe, for if you're learning the art of professional wrestling, is tell how to lock up. So when you first are circling the ring, we lock up. Boom. So I teach them how to lock up. So they always have to lock up with me, and they always have to try to put me in a sleeper hold, because they know how to do a sleeper hold. So if any boys are in the, you know, kindergarten or second grade that mess with them, they know how to. They don't choke them out.
Joe Jonas
That's sick.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Are your girls in anything? Like, do you guys have them in any sports or any type of stuff like that? Like, are they into singing? Do they love what you guys do? Do they know what you guys do? Because my daughters could care less and I'm a WWE wrestler or that. That I'm. I'm a host of American Gladiators. They don't care.
Kevin Jonas
Hey, this is Kevin.
State Farm Insurance Voice
This is Nick Jonas from hey Jonas.
Kevin Jonas
Insurance may all seem the same on the surface, but having insurance isn't the same as having state farms.
State Farm Insurance Voice
It's like needing a wedding toast from your best man. But getting it from your third cousin's plus one. Sure, he may try to talk about love, throw in a generic joke, but it's not the same. No real connection. No depth. No remember that one time moment you just met him yesterday.
Kevin Jonas
You wouldn't settle for a wedding toast from a rando on your big day, so don't settle for just any insurance. When there's State Farm when it comes
State Farm Insurance Voice
to getting the help you need, State Farm is the real deal. As real as that toast from your best friend, slightly embarrassing, but heartwarming and
Kevin Jonas
hilarious, State Farm is there how and where you need them. Whether that's in person, on the phone, online, or through their award winning app.
State Farm Insurance Voice
Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.

My daughter's. She's four. She's getting into horseback riding at the moment.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Whoa.
Joe Jonas
She's obsessed.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Are you nervous on that?
State Farm Insurance Voice
No. The instructor is amazing and really patient and, you know, has their hand on her the whole time, but she.
Joe Jonas
She's fearless.
State Farm Insurance Voice
She just gets on and she's very fearless.
Joe Jonas
Yeah.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
I think you guys are probably more fearful than. Or maybe Mom. I don't know.
Joe Jonas
Adults know too much. We know too much.
State Farm Insurance Voice
Yeah, but it's.
Kevin Jonas
It's.
State Farm Insurance Voice
It's wild.
Popsicle Flavor Feud Announcer
She.
State Farm Insurance Voice
She's not really taken to combat sports yet, but I think what you're saying about Jiu Jitsu is great. So when I was training at Unbreakable, back in the day, I was doing this TV show, Kingdom, which was all about, you know, MMA fighters and that whole world. And I got really into Jiu Jitsu at that time and found it to be a really helpful tool for a generally smaller guy to, you know, have a shot versus kind of bigger opponents lock up. So hold on. On that front, though, who's the.
Joe Jonas
Who's the.
State Farm Insurance Voice
The best lockup or, like, partner you've had in a fight, In a match.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Oh, like in wrestling. So I would say John Cena has taught me the most nice out of anyone in wwe. When I first started in wwe, nobody liked me because I was off the Real World, which was wildly popular probably before you guys were almost even boring. Maybe not you.
Joe Jonas
Here's the thing.
Kevin Jonas
I was gonna say it earlier, like, I was so impressed, actually, back in the day watching that show than the Real World. But you always said, I'm. I'm gonna be. I'm gonna be a wrestler. I'm a wrestler. I'm gonna be the Mist. Like, you were. You had your character. You knew who you were, and you, like, manifested it. You made it become real. You did it. And I think that that's just the power of knowing, like, who you are as a person.
Joe Jonas
I think everyone. And it's always, like, classic. You just keep watching this happen, right? Like, somebody will come from a different side of.
Albertsons and Safeway Promo Voice
Of.
Joe Jonas
Of an industry or from a show or a musician, and they'll step into another. Into the ring or somewhere, and they're gonna be the first person they get shit on, and no one's gonna believe them. But obviously, tales, oldest time. So you were saying John Cena, which. I got to meet John for the first Time as well. You know, there's a lot of legends that day. WrestleMania. It's just. I just was. Stayed in one place and I'm meeting all these people.
State Farm Insurance Voice
Joe fangirl a bit.
Joe Jonas
I did fangirl, but I actually meeting John was quite funny because I. I've never. I'm pretty. I think I really respect him, especially what he's done with his film career.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Yes.
Kevin Jonas
And make a wish.
Joe Jonas
And make a wish.
Kevin Jonas
It's unbelievable.
Joe Jonas
But I'm sorry, you were saying he. You've learned a lot from him or he's taught you a lot.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
So when, like when we were talking about the Real World, like, yeah, the Miz didn't come for like, it came from the real world. But like, I didn't mean to do that, right? Like, I was just uncomfortable being in New York City. Seven strangers pick to live in a house, have a job. I was uncomfortable. And what do you do when you're uncomfortable? I drank and basically like partied and just created a character called the Miz that would tell everyone exactly how they felt whenever they wanted to. And so everyone started liking that. And I've always wanted to be a wrestler, but I was never thought I was big enough. Like, I'm six foot nothing, 200 nothing pounds. These guys were larger than life. Like, if you look at American Gladiators in wwe, these were my, my shows and they were larger than life. They were heroes. I never thought I could actually Undertaker
Joe Jonas
and some of these legends that are just massive dudes.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
So when, so when I tried out for the Real World and made it, I was like, wait a second, you're telling me if I try out for something and I, and I, and I have a goal, I can actually do it if I find the right tools for it. So I remember looking on Yahoo. Being like, all right, where do I find a wrestling school? Found one in la. Got acting classes, improv classes. I started doing, I got a nutritionist, started working out. I was finding all the tools that I could possibly find to become a professional wrestler. But then when I got there, like three years later, you thought WWE would be like, oh my God, yes, we want this guy. They didn't. Hollywood didn't want me. Because when you're on a reality show back then, you're a no talent hack. Like you, you were on television, you were living your life in front of a. A camera. That's all you're good for. You're not good for anything else. But then it was crazy because I got on a show called Tough Enough which is another reality show. But you could win a WWE contract. Didn't win the contract, but impress the exec so much that they gave me a developmental contract. Went through developmental system, got to wwe. Everybody hated me in the locker room. Nobody, nobody wanted me there. Nobody wanted to teach me. John Cena was one of the people that literally brought me in and always kind of gave me a nod, right? Gave me that whenever I was in the ring. Teach taught me like how to become a main event superstar and that. It's very difficult. There's a whole different level of people wrestling. And it's. It's like bands, right? You have new up and coming bands that are trying to get out, and then you have you guys who are like literally stadiums, arenas, wherever you guys want to go, sold out everywhere. You guys know how to perform in these main event caliber. Like, people want to pay to see you. The reason they want to pay to see you is because you know how to conduct an entire, like, concert that literally people will pay for. That's exactly what a WWE main eventer does. And so Jon taught me how to do that. And then I became WWE Champion. Beat him in the main event of WrestleMania. No big deal. No big deal. But. But then this year I got to be in the ring with him again. He retired this year, but, I mean, he was unbelievable. I know he came back as the host and to be in the ring with him again, that was great.
Joe Jonas
I loved seeing that.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
It was. It was great. It was. It was a fun moment, and it was a very John Cena, the Miz type of interaction, as always. So he's always been a person that's been great to me. Randy Orton was one that taught me a lot, who's still in the business and is literally one of the goats to this day. So it's always good to. To get th. Those guys in the ring, especially now. Now I'm in this element where I've been in WWE for like 20 years, and I'm teaching the new upand cominging people how to become what John Cena did. Do you guys do that for other bands? Sorry for taking over, but I'm curious about you guys as well.
Joe Jonas
I want to. I want to, like, respond with the same kind of question. I mean, we meet a lot of young musicians that are always asking us, hey, give me some advice. And I kind of ask a question back. I'm like, why do you want to do this? And if it's like, oh, especially I find a lot of what social media can kind of Create. It's like, oh, because I want to be famous. I'm like, well, I don't know if this is for you, then. Because the fame side comes with a lot of. Can come with a lot of negativity and hate, and you gotta have thick skin. If you do it because you wake up and it's all you think about and you go to bed, it's all you think about, then, like, yes, like, just write as much as you can. If writing's not your strong suit, play. Play an instrument. Surround yourself with great people. So I would ask you the same question, like, if somebody wants to get into wrestling or if you. I'm sure you meet a lot of people. What's your advice for these young people? You said 20 years. Congrats. It's incredible. We're also celebrating 20 years, funny enough.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Yeah, look at us.
Joe Jonas
So for you, like, if.
Albertsons and Safeway Promo Voice
If.
Joe Jonas
If somebody was trying to get into wrestling right now, professional wrestling, like, how would they even go about it in, like, this day and age?
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
So the way we have a performance center and they have trials all the time at. It's called NXT Performance center down in Orlando, and we have tryouts all the time. You can find that out on WWE.com they always are. Are looking for the next WWE Superstar, and that's a good way. But to piggyback off of what you're saying about fame, they want fame and fortune. If you don't have the love for what you're doing, you will not make it because you will not put the work that involves, like, nobody sees us. How much. How much work it is to be a Jonas Brother. Nobody sees the work that it is to be a WWE Superstar. No one understands what we have to go through on a daily basis. And granted, it's awesome. The stuff we get to do. It's amazing. The fans are incredible, but you don't see the insights and the work that it takes. Absolutely sacrifices on your body.
Joe Jonas
Yeah, let's just talk about that alone.
Kevin Jonas
Like, that energy level you're talking about is real.
Joe Jonas
Oh, dude, I don't know.
State Farm Insurance Voice

Joe's hook.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Now, are you going to get involved?
Joe Jonas
You should do something if you need my help in any way.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
I do have a problem with Danhausen right now, who is basically cursing everyone.
Kevin Jonas
Did he ever give you. Okay, I have a segue here. I actually have a question about that from one of our listeners. These are from Ryan, and he's a Huge fan. He said, real nerd shiz coming in right now. So here we go. Did Danhausen ever return your daughter's bike?
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
No, he didn't. He stole.
Joe Jonas
That's messed up.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
See? Thank you. This is what I'm talking about. Everyone else is like laughing about it and saying, this is great. This is amazing. They're getting entertained by it.
Joe Jonas
He's got a problem with me too then.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
Look, I, I, he said I curse you. Like he gives everyone a curse. Like you are cursed.
Joe Jonas
No, the cursing thing, it's gotta go. Nobody wants a curse on them. Especially do you take my kids bike?
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
I don't believe in curses.
Joe Jonas
You're cooked.

The Miz (WWE Superstar)
The man has. The man has broken into my house. He has stolen my daughter's bike. He, A referee claimed that he got a cramp so he couldn't count to three. And I would have won the tag team titles with Kit Wilson. Yeah, but because the referee said he was cursed and got a cramp in his arm, he couldn't count to three. He couldn't do his job. On smackdown. I was blown up. I was blown up. And the crowd was applauding it. Applauding it during a match, by the way. Mind you. These are the things that Danhausen is doing to me that people are cheering for. Yeah, but you guys gotta watch out because he might curse you. I don't believe in the curse. Some people believe in curses.
Joe Jonas
Bring it on.
Kevin Jonas
I know.
Joe Jonas
Jesus can't be cursed. Praise a lot. Well, we'll be. I'll put me in the ring, bro. I'm there. I got your back. I'll be there. You have no problem there.
The Miz (WWE Superstar)
None.
Kevin Jonas
Miss. Thank you so much, man. Congratulations on everything. It's a huge honor to meet you.
Joe Jonas
