Howard Stern renews SiriusXM deal for three years


Howard Stern has confirmed that he will remain with SiriusXM for another three years, extending his long-running tenure with the satellite radio network. The 71-year-old host made the announcement live on The Howard Stern Show, with the company confirming the extension but providing no further financial or contractual details. Stern previously renewed his contract in 2020 for five years, in a deal reported to be worth between $450 million and $500 million.

Stern has been a central figure at SiriusXM for more than two decades, having pioneered the move from terrestrial radio to satellite, setting a standard for high-profile talent seeking greater creative freedom. Earlier this year, he and fellow Sirius personality Andy Cohen staged a playful announcement suggesting Cohen might take over Stern’s show, feeding speculation about Stern’s future. Rumors of a potential cancellation circulated last summer, often amplified by outlets critical of Stern’s political commentary. Stern acknowledged that his unique work schedule, which includes summers off and limited studio appearances, influenced the recent negotiations. SiriusXM executives have consistently described Stern as a “core” part of their programming, expressing confidence in reaching agreements that support both the host and the network.
