NEW YORK, Sept. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM and
Pandora today announced that Howard
Stern will commemorate the official October 7th opening of SiriusXM
Hollywood, the company's new Hollywood complex featuring
artist-first studios, with Stern's first broadcast from the West
Coast in almost 20 years.
Howard Stern has never been
bigger. Now in his 14th year on SiriusXM, he has a
new #1 best-selling book of his radio interviews, "Howard Stern
Comes Again," and is regularly complimented as the best interviewer
in the business. His edgy, comedic morning radio show and two
channels of new and classic Stern now feature Howard Stern Video on
the SiriusXM app. Howard, who legendarily loathes travel,
broadcasts from outside New York
City almost never. His launch of the new SiriusXM
Hollywood complex will be his first radio broadcast from outside
New York in 15 years, and his
first from Los Angeles in almost
20 years.
Located in the heart of the burgeoning Hollywood Media District
at 953 N. Sycamore Ave., SiriusXM/Pandora
Hollywood has been built from the ground up to reflect the
company's commitment to the West Coast artist community and
audience, and to be the base for originating great talk, compelling
entertainment, world class music, and exclusive performances for
the more than 100 million listeners of the United States' leading audio entertainment
company.
SiriusXM Hollywood's official October
7th launch with Howard
Stern will be preceded by four weeks of special broadcasts
and performances across many SiriusXM channels from the new
Hollywood studio complex and from legendary venues around Los
Angeles.
In week one, SiriusXM Hosts Jess Cagle, Andy Cohen and Jenny
McCarthy are expected to welcome top Hollywood guests for
on-air interviews and specials, including Chelsea Handler, Neil
Patrick Harris, Julia
Roberts, Carrie Underwood,

state-of-the-art ground-floor performance studio, The Garage, for
