This Week in Stand-Up
SiriusXM signs a four-year Giggly Squad deal
SiriusXM announced a new four-year agreement with Giggly Squad, the podcast hosted by stand-up comedian Hannah Berner and Paige DeSorbo. Starting September 17, SiriusXM has exclusive distribution and global advertising sales rights for both its audio and video editions. The company says new exclusive programming is expected in 2027.
