NEW YORK — February 3, 2026 — Today, iHeartPodcasts, the no. 1 podcast publisher, and Ben Higgins, host of “The Ben & Ashley I. Almost Famous Podcast” and “Famously Available” announced “If You Can Hear Me,” a new podcast and video series where faith and pop culture will meet. Fans can listen to the new podcast now, here.

Produced by New Bridge Studios, “If You Can Hear Me” is built around thoughtful, open-hearted conversations that explore the questions many people carry quietly. Each episode centers on themes such as identity, loss, purpose, peace, faith, doubt, joy, and the universal search for meaning. Rather than following a traditional celebrity interview format, the show creates space for guests to share lived experiences and reflect on the moments that have shaped who they are.

The series brings together voices from across entertainment, culture, and public life, offering conversations designed to go deeper than headlines and titles. With iHeart reaching nine out of ten Americans each month, “If You Can Hear Me” will launch with wide national distribution across its multi-platform network. In the first episode, Higgins talks with Chris Lane, multi‑platform country artist known for recent singles like “Find Another Bar” and “If I Die Before You,” about marriage, family, the trajectory of his music career, his songwriting process and more. In a later episode, Higgins will interview content creator and comedian Danae Hayes.  

“If You Can Hear Me” marks the next chapter in Higgins’ evolution as a host and storyteller, building on his work in faith-driven dialogue, authorship, and impact-focused initiatives. The show will officially launch soon, with additional guest announcements and episode releases to follow.

“If You Can Hear Me” will join iHeart’s existing roster of highly popular shows focused on the topic including “DJ Hesta Prynn’s Music is Therapy,” “Sleep Psalms with T.D. Jakes,” “Deeply Well with Devi Brown,” “On Purpose with Jay Shetty” and others as listeners increasingly seek resources for self-improvement and mental wellbeing through audio. These shows are distributed by iHeartPodcasts and available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard.
