  • This week, Jason is joined by professional dancer, choreographer, singer, songwriter, musician, actor, and former Dancing with the Stars pro Mark Ballas!

    Mark is well known for his time on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars as a pro from 2007 to 2022. Mark has set and broken numerous records and established himself as one of the top dancers and choreographers in Dancing with the Stars history, having tallied three titles in seasons 6, 8, and 31 and four runner-up finishes in seasons 14, 19, 22, 25. Outside of his time on the show, he has gathered numerous acting accolades and also formed a pop rock musical duo with his wife BC, called Alexander Jean.

    Mark dives into the thought process behind being all in regardless of what he is doing, why he came back to DWTS after a five year hiatus, as a competitor when he knew he was done competing, being hands on with the costume department on DWTS, the stresses of competing and judging, how he got prepared to step into the judges seat, and how he plans for his future. Mark also reveals growing up in a creative, supportive environment, doing a yearly mood board with his wife, staying in the present the first year of his son’s life, goals for 2025, behind the scenes of Broadway, growing up with Derek, managing the need to be constantly busy, and navigating the hardest moments.
