You can use headphones to listen to radio and podcasts.

On their website, Rockstar wrote, "Plus, for the first time ever, Grand Theft Auto VI introduces a series of on-demand podcasts for Jason and Lucia to experience beyond Leonida’s terrestrial radio, with both radio and podcasts available to listen to in vehicles and on foot through newly introduced headphones and earbuds connected to their smartphones."

In previous games, we were only able to listen to radio while inside vehicles. This will be the first time players can use their smartphones to listen to music. Additionally, GTA 6 is the first game in the franchise to include podcasts.
