Overview
- SiriusXM and HBO Max announced the deal on Monday, Aug. 31, and HBO Max will begin releasing weekly filmed episodes of The Howard Stern Show on Thursday, Sept. 17, with new episodes each Thursday at 12:01 a.m. PT/3:01 a.m. ET.
- Stern will resume producing one live SiriusXM show a week on Monday, Sept. 14, and each live broadcast will be recorded and adapted into the HBO Max episode with periodic extras.
- SiriusXM said the production will use an extensive multi‑camera capture reportedly involving 40 cameras, and The Howard Stern Production Co. is listed as executive producer for the HBO Max series.
- SiriusXM is reworking Stern’s channel programming by expanding Howard 100 with new lineup features such as Wrap Up Wednesday and a ‘Howard Stern Decades’ archive section, while Howard 101 was omitted from the updated lineup.
- The arrangement keeps Stern under his three‑year SiriusXM contract through 2028, reflects his steady reduction in live output over the past decade, and positions his archive and filmed shows to reach a broader streaming audience.
