Oprah to Host New Radio Show
susanharrow | February 23, 2006
According to the February 24 issue of Entertainment Weekly (guilty-my sweetie gets it, I read it) Oprah will launch Oprah & Friends, “an XM channel (satellite radio) emphasizing topics like self-help and decor.” Oprah’s site says, The show will cover “current events, self improvement, health, nutrition, fitness and home.”
Oprah will oversee the channel, but just cohost one show a week for half an hour with Gayle King. To encourage TV guests of the Oprah Winfrey Show to bop on over to the radio show, a state-of-the-art studio is in the works at the Chicago based Harpo headquarters. For you, all her future guests, this could mean double exposure-First on TV, then on the radio. Nice.
