Megyn Kelly to Launch New SiriusXM Channel

Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly has finalized a multi-year agreement with SiriusXM, which includes the launch of her own radio channel, announced on Thursday.

The Megyn Kelly Channel is set to debut on November 4th, airing on channel 111. Previously, Kelly established a podcast network featuring shows by Mark Halperin, Emily Jasinski, and Link Lauren, widening her focus to encompass true crime and legal discussions.

In a statement, Kelly expressed her views on traditional TV news, saying, “Linear TV news is over. People can’t stand that stilted, censored conversation anymore. That’s exactly why this medium is thriving. We’re excited to bring our bold brand of no-BS news live on SiriusXM and to expand our relationships with such great blue-chip brands and great partners. Soon, our listeners will have the Megyn Kelly Channel they can trust to enjoy their favorite conversations and content.”

After parting ways with Fox News in January 2017, where she hosted two shows, Kelly moved to NBC but left in October 2018 following controversial remarks about Halloween costumes and blackface.

Recently, Kelly started a 15-minute morning podcast, titled “AM Update with Megyn Kelly,” alongside “The Megyn Kelly Show,” which airs from 12 PM to 2 PM ET.

During the 2024 presidential campaign, Kelly showed support for President Donald Trump, referencing child sexual charges in an October 2024 interview on “Real Time with Bill Maher.” This was notable, especially considering her past conflict with Trump during the 2016 campaign, when she questioned him about his treatment of women during a Republican debate.

SiriusXM also mentioned that Sirius Triumph, which was previously on channel 111, will be moving to channel 123.
