Richard Simmons is a great addition to Sirius' all-star lineup. He has a tremendous fan base throughout the United States and this will allow him to have intimate and personal conversations with his supporters on a weekly basis, as if each and everyone of them were in his studio in Beverly Hills. Richard's quick wit, passion and enthusiasm will make truly entertaining and enlightening radio.

Howard has a history of knowing where the lines are, and we're confident he'll continue to retain that perspective at Sirius.

I'm a huge believer that he's the comedic icon of our time. There are very few things proven in any medium, and you've got to pay for those things.
