Howard Stern's wife, Beth, speaks out about shock jock's HBO move
Key Points:
- Howard Stern has struck a new deal with HBO Max to stream his SiriusXM show, which will now air once a week and be available on HBO Max starting September 17, with new episodes released every Thursday.
- The arrangement allows Stern to work only one day a week, giving him more free time at home, which his wife Beth praises as a "win-win" for the family.
- This move follows the downsizing of Stern's Howard 101 SiriusXM channel, which was dropped after laying off about a dozen staffers, and the channel was handed over to Andy Cohen.
- Stern's previous five-year contract with SiriusXM was worth $500 million, and his new three-year contract offers more flexibility, aligning with his reduced weekly schedule.
- Beth Stern revealed they plan to stay mostly in the Hamptons full time due to Howard's new, more accommodating work routine.
