NEW YORK, April 27, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM
announced today that Bethenny Frankel, TV personality,
Skinnygirl Founder & CEO, best-selling author and star of
Bravo's The Real Housewives of New
York, will host a new limited-run radio show exclusively
on Andy Cohen's SiriusXM channel
Radio Andy.
B Real with Bethenny, which launches May 2, will feature Frankel sharing her
unfiltered and uncensored point of view about everything from
dating, sex, parenting, food, diet, beauty, business and much more.
In this two-hour weekly program, Frankel will be joined by a
variety of interesting and notable people ranging from celebrities
to experts, while taking calls from listeners to rant (or rave)
about various topics.
"I love Andy and I am excited to be joining his radio family on
SiriusXM," said Bethenny Frankel. "I can't wait to connect in
a new way with my fans. I say what is on my mind, so this will
be an exciting platform to vent, rant and express myself.
Tune-in -- you never know what will come out of my mouth and
what trouble me and my guests could get into!"
"Bethenny is a self-described unfiltered know-it-all, which
makes her a perfect fit for Radio Andy," said Cohen. "Thankfully
there are no censors at SiriusXM!"
"Bethenny Frankel was one of the first "break-out" stars of
Bravo's hit reality series, The Real Housewives of New York, because of her sharp
tongue and outspoken personality, so it's not surprising that
Andy Cohen wants Bethenny to host a
show on Radio Andy on SiriusXM," said Scott
Greenstein, President and Chief Content Officer, SiriusXM.
"Our uncensored and unscripted platform will offer Bethenny the
opportunity to have real, unrestricted conversations live on the
air every week."
B Real with Bethenny premieres Monday, May 2, at 1 PM
ET, and then will air weekly on Wednesdays, at
10 AM ET on Radio Andy channel
102, and through the SiriusXM app on smartphones and other
connected devices, as well as online at siriusxm.com.
Created and curated by Andy
Cohen, the Radio Andy channel includes shows hosted by
Andy Cohen, Sandra Bernhard, Bevy Smith, John Benjamin Hickey, Nigel Barker and more.
