Another celebrity podcast is coming, and this one will be a treat for Happy Days fans. iHeartPodcasts is teaming up with the Winkler family for a new podcast called What in the Winkler?! The podcast will be hosted by Henry Winkler‘s longtime wife Stacey Winkler and their daughter Zoe Winkler. Even more fitting: the podcast will debut on Henry’s 79th birthday (October 30, 2024).

Henry and Stacey met at a clothing store all the way back in 1976, and wed two years later. They have two children together, Max and Zoe; plus, Stacey has a son named Jed from a previous marriage. Stacey and Zoe will share what it is really like to be family members with a very famous actor and what it was like growing up in Hollywood.

The weekly podcast promises to take listeners on a “nostalgic and joyful ride,” full of untold stories and “hilarious anecdotes from life in the spotlight.” In the podcast trailer, Stacey and Zoe joke that they had to use their last name to even get a podcast and added that it is similar to using the name to get a better table at a restaurant.

It sounds like the podcast will be a mix of funny moments, heartwarming stories and a whole lot of family fun. No word on if Henry will be joining his girls for any of the episodes, but I would say it is likely!
