Howard Stern to stream weekly show on HBO Max after new SiriusXM agreement

Howard Stern has reached a deal with HBO Max to stream video excerpts from his new once-weekly live show on SiriusXM. The streaming service will edit the three-hour broadcast into either a 90-minute or one-hour episode to air later in the week, according to a source familiar with the arrangement.

"Stern will be doing the live shows strictly on Mondays," the source said, noting the change from his usual start date after Labor Day. "This is a very strict schedule for him to be able to use that show’s video for HBO Max."

The agreement follows the removal of Stern’s Howard 101 channel from SiriusXM’s lineup after a staff reduction that saw about 12 employees laid off. The platform announced that Andy Cohen’s Radio Andy will move to channel 101, while Howard 100 will remain on its existing channel.

Stern’s current three-year contract with SiriusXM, signed in December 2025, provides him with scheduling flexibility, he told listeners at the time. His previous five-year deal with the network was valued at $500 million.

His wife, Beth Stern, said on Andy Cohen’s Sirius show that the new schedule appears to be working well for him. Earlier this year, a lawsuit filed by a former assistant alleging a hostile work environment was dismissed in its entirety by a New York State Supreme Court judge.
