Howard Stern’s iconic radio show is facing cancelation as his $100M Sirius contract nears its end
UNITED STATES, AUG 5 – SiriusXM plans not to renew Howard Stern's $100 million annual contract due to declining audience and a shift to younger, podcast-focused content, sources say.
- Howard Stern, the 71-year-old radio host, is expected to end his nearly two-decade tenure with SiriusXM when his contract expires in late 2025.
- This development follows rumors and reports that Stern and SiriusXM cannot agree on contract terms, with political views possibly influencing the decision.
- SiriusXM plans to offer Stern a new contract for licensing rights, focusing on past shows, while shifting towards youth talent and podcast content.
- An insider revealed that SiriusXM and Stern are unlikely to agree on the financial terms he will seek, and the company does not anticipate that Stern will accept their proposed contract.
- If Stern leaves radio, he may retain the rights to his catalogue but his departure marks the likely end of his two-decade SiriusXM run amid strategic and financial shifts.
