“I couldn’t be happier or more proud to be doing this with SiriusXM, from the very first time I stepped into this building in New York to do Howard Stern’s show, I could feel the energy and excitement of the place and I could feel that this was a home that looks after and nurtures talent.”

The 45-year-old added: “I’m so excited and I can’t wait for you to hear it only on SiriusXM.”

The weekly show, which will begin airing next year, is billed as seeking to “tell the untold stories of some of the most well-known public figures”.
