NEW YORK, April 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM
announced today that Irving Azoff,
the renowned music dealmaker and talent manager to some of the
biggest names in the record industry, will host a new show,
Unmanageable, on SiriusXM's Volume channel.
On Unmanageable, Azoff, the Chairman, Chief Executive
Officer of Azoff MSG Entertainment, will host conversations with
some of the most influential people in the music business where
they'll dive into music's past, present and future. From ticket
prices to technology, artists' rights, concert safety and the
current state of live and recorded music, Unmanageable will
provide an in-depth look into the business of music.
Unmanageable will debut on April 4 at 7 pm
ET / 4 pm PT on
SiriusXM's Volume channel with special guests Jon Bon Jovi, Director Judd Apatow and CAA's Head of Music
Rob Light.
"Irving Azoff is one of the most
revered names in the music business and the possibility of doing an
unscripted, free-form show with him for our subscribers was
irresistible," said Scott
Greenstein, President and Chief Content Officer of
SiriusXM. "Unmanageable will be Irving being
Irving—passionate, opinionated and questioning. Listeners will get
a front-row seat as Irving and friends talk about music today, as
it pertains to the industry and to the average fan and listener.
This is a show that was made for our SiriusXM VOLUME channel, the
only fulltime talk channel on radio devoted to talking—and
arguing—about music."
"I agree with everything Scott said," commented Azoff. "I am a
big fan of SiriusXM. Jon, Judd, Rob and I had a great time
and the conversation was so natural that we forgot we were being
recorded. We ended up with an unscripted conversation that delved
into a lot of issues—I am sure listeners will enjoy this 'behind
the curtain' show."
Unmanageable is the latest guest-curated program to be
added to the Volume channel 106, home of talk-radio that is all
about the world of music, and its fans. Azoff's new program,
Unmanageable, will see new episodes debut throughout spring
and summer.

Unmanageable on ch.106, and those with streaming access can
listen online, on-the-go with the SiriusXM mobile app and at home
on a wide variety of connected devices including smart TVs, Amazon
Alexa devices, Apple TV, PlayStation, Roku, Sonos speakers and
