NEW YORK, Nov. 11, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM
announced today the launch of Buying and Selling, a new
one-hour show in which Fredrik
Eklund, star of Bravo's Million Dollar Listing New
York, will examine the art of buying and selling—almost
anything.
Buying and Selling teams Fredrik with his brother,
co-host Sigge Eklund, a comedian, author and host of one of the
most popular podcasts in Sweden,
for this limited-run series on SiriusXM's Stars channel beginning
November 20. The Eklund brothers will be joined by a
celebrity guest each week for a lively conversation about current
deals and successes with buying and selling—in pop-culture, real
estate and even their personal lives. Sharing their common
obsession with what makes something sellable in today's world, they
will discuss topics ranging from successful selling of a personal
brand, a penthouse apartment or the art of selling a story.
"I am beyond excited to host a new show with my brother Sigge on
SiriusXM," said Fredrik
Eklund. "This is the perfect platform for us to
connect more with fans and each other—sharing our different
perspectives and best practices for successful selling of
brands."
"Fredrik has created a highly successful brand name out of his
career in selling real estate," said Scott
Greenstein, SiriusXM's President and Chief Content
Officer. "With his new show on SiriusXM, listeners can expect
to get a taste of his infectious personality, blended with with his
passion for sales, marketing, and building trusting relationships
in business and in life. Along with his brother Sigge, a
pop-culture whiz, listeners can expect to hear lots of anecdotal
stories, laughs and cha-chings."
Eklund stars in Million Dollar Listing New York, Bravo's
Emmy-nominated television series that takes a closer look at top
real estate agents and their intertwining lives as they fight for
their share of the market in New York
City. One of the world's most successful real estate agents
who regularly sets sales records, Eklund is a licensed broker at
Douglas Elliman. Originally from Stockholm, Sweden, Eklund was named the #1
real estate agent in New York City
by The Real Deal magazine in 2014 and 2015, and is the

Anyone, an international best-seller published by
