Fox News host Sean Hannity is launching a twice-weekly podcast called “Hang Out with Sean Hannity,” becoming the network’s biggest on-air personality to enter the growing podcast space.
The long-form interview podcast will debut March 3, 2026, and be available on YouTube, Spotify and other major platforms. Episodes will typically run about an hour, but Hannity plans to let conversations continue as long as they remain compelling, free from the time constraints and commercial breaks of television.“You just keep going,” Hannity said in an interview. “I love the freedom that offers.”
The format builds on his experience hosting extended interviews on Fox Nation, including conversations with Sylvester Stallone and Stephen A. Smith. Hannity said the no-time-limit structure allows for deeper, more intimate storytelling and ensures guests can’t dodge tough questions.
“I’m not going to stop for an hour and a half until you give me my answer,” he said. “And it doesn’t matter if we agree, disagree, but you gotta give an answer.”
“Everybody has a story,” he added. “And the beauty is, I don’t have to work hard to pull it out of them in a certain period of time.”
Hannity, the longest-running prime-time host at Fox News since its 1996 launch, will end his “Sean” interview series on Fox Nation to focus on the podcast, which will be recorded from a casual “man cave” set in Florida.
The move comes as cable news networks aggressively expand into podcasting to reach audiences
shifting away from traditional pay TV subscriptions. MS NOW recently launched “The Best People with Nicolle Wallace,” while CNN’s Anderson Cooper has hosted “All There Is” since 2022. Fox Corporation has deepened its podcast investments, notably through its 2025 acquisition of Red Seat Ventures, which supports independent podcasters including former Fox personalities Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly, and Red Seat’s later purchase of the podcast platform Supercast.
Hannity continues to host his nightly Fox News program and his nationally syndicated radio show, which airs on 750 stations and reaches roughly 20 million listeners weekly. A vocal supporter of President Trump, he promised the podcast will feature a range of viewpoints.
“I won’t mention names, but we have a couple of people on the left that have agreed to do the podcast,” Hannity said. “Some have been on the TV show, some have not.” He described the launch as part of his effort to remain relevant in a changing media landscape.
“I want to stay current,” Hannity said. “And I want to stay relevant.”
