SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TuneIn, the world’s leader in live audio, today announced the launch of “Hot Mics with Billy Bush,” featuring Billy’s hot takes on the hot-button issues in the American Zeitgeist of sports, politics, entertainment, tech and pop culture. Billy has 24 years of experience in entertainment and a record to set straight, which he will do on day one.

Funny, honest and provocative, “Hot Mics” will engage with a host of relevant voices: A-list stars, politicians both loathed and loved but shaping our world today, tastemakers, lightning rods, sports icons and tech barons.

Twice weekly, mics will be hot with conversations that take listeners behind the scenes of a given cultural moment. Available via TuneIn, “Hot Mics with Billy Bush” debuts Monday, Jan. 13, with a super hot, no-holds-barred explanation of how this show got its name, and later in the week, on Wednesday, the show welcomes its first guest, Megyn Kelly.

“Every week, I’ll be diving deep into culture-shaping moments, offering listeners a raw, unfiltered take on today’s biggest stories. Oh, and the only person that can cancel me is me,” said Billy reflecting on his newfound freedom.

Billy has spent his career interviewing the most influential celebrities and cultural icons of the time. He was a primary anchor on Access Hollywood for more than a decade before joining the Today Show as a co-host in 2016. He is now the sole anchor of the syndicated TV show EXTRA. But all roads have led to this: “Hot Mics with Billy Bush” premiering Monday, Jan. 13 at 5 p.m. ET on TuneIn.

The show is executive produced by three-time Emmy award winner Rob K. Silverstein, Billy's Executive Producer at  “Access Hollywood.” Steve Harding will join Silverstein as the Co-Executive Producer. Silverstein says, “There are no gatekeepers. No guard rails. The gloves are off. Be ready to see and hear Billy at his best.”
