'I cried my eyes out'

Joe shared details of the day he learned that Nick was going to be a judge on the show. "It was at the most picturesque setting, it was at the Fleetwood Mac show at [Madison Square Garden] and as they’re playing 'Landslide,' I found out that he was going to be a judge on 'The Voice.' I was so jealous I cried my eyes out to 'Landslide' ", Joe said. "It was bittersweet, of course, 'cause I'm super happy for him, but I'm also bummed 'cause I want that f****** gig!", he added.

'We want someone with the last name Jonas to win'

During the podcast, the brothers said that though they have felt jealous of one another, they are all on the same team at the end of the day. "We always say we want someone with the last name Jonas to win. That's our goal. We both auditioned for the same role, Joe and I. It was for 'Wicked' actually," Joe said. "And we were going into it… and naturally, we're brothers, we’re competitive in sports and other things, but when it comes to our career, I think we genuinely both looked at each other like…Yeah, we said, 'Go in there and kill it 'cause it’s gotta be one of us. It has to be one of us.' That being said, never got that call…", he added.

On May 12, the three brothers released 'The Album,' their sixth studio album after their comeback release of 'Happiness Begins' in 2019, according to People.
