SiriusXM Progress Weekday Live Lineup Expands, John Fugelsang Added For Nights

Expanded Lineup

SIRIUSXM PROGRESS has revamped its schedule, with the shuffle resulting in live programming 7a-midnight (ET) every weekday.

The changes include the expansion of "SIGNAL BOOST WITH ZERLINA AND JESS," hosted by ZERLINA MAXWELL and JESS MCINTOSH, by an hour to air 7-9a; and the addition of a new show, "TELL ME EVERYTHING," with comedian and former SIRIUSXM INSIGHT host JOHN FUGELSANG 9p-midnight.

"The Democratic base has rarely been this energized and engaged, and PROGRESS has become an essential destination for that audience and the presidential candidates, party leaders, and prominent voices trying to reach them," said SVP of News, Talk, and Entertainment Programming MEGAN LIBERMAN. "With the start of 2020 voting just a few months away, it is the perfect time for us to expand and deepen our already strong lineup on the channel."

"JESS and I couldn't be more thrilled to set the day's agenda each morning on PROGRESS," said MAXWELL. "We are an amplification engine for the female-led resistance to TRUMP and we know that our fellow progressives need to be informed about the news that really matters, and the morning show provides us with a significant platform to help update, mobilize, and give our majority movement a boost."

"I've debated JERRY FALWELL and DAVID DUKE; been a regular panelist on FOX, MSNBC, and CNN; co-headlined the Sexy Liberal tour for years; performed for the troops overseas and been picketed by WESTBORO BAPTIST CHURCH -- and it was all preparing me for SIRIUSXM PROGRESS," said FUGELSANG. "We're excited to bring our blend of politics, newsmaker and artist interviews, and deeply inappropriate comedian panels to the channel."

STEPHANIE MILLER, THOM HARTMANN, MICHELANGELO SIGNORILE, and DEAN OBEIDALLAH continue in the PROGRESS lineup.
