NEW YORK – September 4, 2025 – SiriusXM today announced that Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear has signed a new deal to bring “The Andy Beshear Podcast” to the SiriusXM Podcast Network. As part of the agreement, the show will expand its reach to SiriusXM’s 33 million subscribers, with episodes also airing on SiriusXM Progress channel 127. Additionally, SiriusXM Media, the company’s advertising division, has acquired exclusive global ad sales rights to the audio edition of the podcast.
For his SiriusXM debut, the Governor is scheduled to sit down for a wide-ranging interview with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries at SiriusXM’s New York City studios. The podcast interview will premiere September 10 on the SiriusXM app and other major podcast platforms, and will also air on Progress Saturday at 11 am ET.
In addition to the podcast, Gov. Beshear will host a new series of live specials, “Andy Beshear Presents,” airing exclusively on SiriusXM Progress.

For the inaugural broadcast, Beshear will be joined by fellow Progress host John Fugelsang and will take calls from listeners across the country.
“I want this podcast to be a space to bring people together – especially in such a stressful and divisive time in our country,” said Gov. Beshear. “This is a conversation with friends and we talk about things that matter to all of us: sports, politics, pop culture, our kids. I’m excited to expand this conversation with listeners across the country on SiriusXM, highlighting a wide range of voices and ideas that can help move us all forward, together.”
“The Andy Beshear Podcast” will continue to release new episodes every week on SiriusXM Progress and will be available on the SiriusXM app and all major podcast platforms, with video available on YouTube.
