Official Release:

SiriusXM and Audacy announced today a new agreement that will bring 42 of Audacy’s leading sports, news and talk stations from 29 markets across the U.S. to SiriusXM, significantly expanding SiriusXM’s local content offering and extending the reach of many of Audacy’s market-leading brands.

23 Audacy sports stations will launch on SiriusXM on September 1, in time for the start of football season, giving fans nationwide access to more trusted local sports talk, commentary and analysis from many of the country’s most passionate sports markets. In addition to these sports channels, 19 Audacy news and talk stations will become available on SiriusXM later this year.

The agreement builds on SiriusXM’s already unmatched sports audio lineup, giving listeners coast-to-coast access to hometown sports talk along with national voices, league channels, and podcasts.

“SiriusXM is the essential audio home for sports fans, offering access to every team and game alongside an unmatched lineup of national sports talk, expert analysis, and the biggest voices in sports,” said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s President and Chief Content Officer. “We also recognize the unique role local personalities play in connecting fans with their teams every day. By adding Audacy’s extensive lineup of sports stations, we’re making those trusted hometown voices available to fans wherever they are across North America. Together, we’re delivering an even more complete audio experience – bringing live games, premier national sports talk, and hometown conversations together in one place.”

Audacy’s industry-leading portfolio includes sports stations in major markets across the U.S. – including in each of Nielsen’s top 10 designated market areas – and a deep roster of local hosts, analysts and programming that connect with some of the most engaged audiences in audio.

“Audacy’s sports brands are deeply connected to the cities, teams and fan communities they serve, and being able to extend our reach nationally through SiriusXM is a natural fit, ” said Kelli Turner, CEO and President, Audacy Inc. “We look forward to working together with SiriusXM to bring our outstanding talent and content to sports fans and news and talk listeners wherever they are, providing our audiences with more ways to stay connected to the conversations that matter most to them.”
