Broadcaster Chris Cuomo is preparing for a significant return to the airwaves, with plans to host a new morning talk programme on satellite radio network SiriusXM.
A High-Profile Media Comeback
This move marks a notable re-entry for Cuomo into a major media platform. He had previously left SiriusXM in 2021. His new venture, a two-hour weekday programme titled Cuomo Mornings, will be broadcast on the network's P.O.T.U.S. channel. The show is scheduled to launch on Monday, 20 January 2026, at 7 a.m. Eastern Time.
Cuomo's career trajectory has been closely watched since his high-profile departure from CNN, where he was a prime-time host. His exit followed revelations that he had assisted his brother, former Democratic New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, in responding to sexual harassment allegations. Currently, Cuomo also presents an evening talk show on the cable network NewsNation.
Format and Featured Guests
The format for Cuomo Mornings will centre heavily on interaction with the audience, focusing on listener calls. Cuomo has articulated a vision for the programme that seeks to move beyond partisan divides. "Too much of our politics is about teams instead of truth," he stated. "'Cuomo Mornings' is going to be about breaking through those barriers, asking better questions and bringing people into the conversation instead of talking past them."
SiriusXM announced on Tuesday, 13 January 2026, that the initial line-up of guests will include a bipartisan mix of political and cultural figures. Expected appearances include:
- Democratic Maryland Governor Wes Moore
- Republican Kentucky Senator Rand Paul
- Renowned sportscaster Bob Costas
- Political strategist James Carville
Establishing a New Chapter
As the son of the late Democratic New York Governor Mario Cuomo, Chris Cuomo brings a deeply ingrained political perspective to his broadcasting. This new morning show on a prominent channel like P.O.T.U.S. solidifies his ongoing presence in the media landscape following his CNN departure. The programme represents a strategic shift to the morning slot and a direct-engagement format, potentially allowing him to reconnect with a broad audience and redefine his public role in political commentary.
The launch later this month will be a key test of his appeal and the public's appetite for his stated mission of fostering more substantive dialogue.
