Howard Stern and SiriusXM
Stern is known as one of the best interviewers in the broad casting world. He has been associated with SiriusXM for the last 15 years and has played a huge part in making it the biggest audio broad casting company in North America.
Talking about his time with the broadcasting company, Howard stated that coming to SiriusXM had liberated him. He talked of what he called a ‘toxic’ relationship with terrestrial radio who never valued any thing he did. The popular host then claimed that he and SiriusXM are thriving together.
