NEW YORK & LOS ANGELES - iHeartMedia (NASDAQ:IHRT) and Netflix announced that The Breakfast Club will become Netflix’s first daily live program, streaming each weekday starting June 1, according to a press release statement.
The radio show, co-hosted by Charlamagne tha God, DJ Envy and Jess Hilarious, will air simultaneously as a live video show on Netflix each weekday, providing nearly three hours of programming. The radio broadcast will continue with traditional commercial breaks, while Netflix viewers will receive uninterrupted content with exclusive bonus segments, behind-the-scenes moments and extended discussions during those breaks.
The show originates from iHeartMedia’s Power 105.1/WWPR-FM in New York and will continue to be nationally syndicated by Premiere Networks on more than 100 broadcast radio stations and on the iHeartRadio app. iHeartMedia retains all audio-only rights and distribution.
"The Breakfast Club has always been at the center of culture, breaking artists, shaping conversations, and reflecting real life in real time," said Bob Pittman, Chairman and CEO of iHeartMedia. "Taking this show live every day to a global audience on Netflix is a powerful example of how we’re expanding the reach of our biggest brands." The media company, which generated $3.94 billion in revenue over the last twelve months, is currently trading below its InvestingPro Fair Value, placing it among potentially undervalued media stocks.
Lauren Smith, Netflix VP of Content Licensing and Programming Strategy, said the show represents "a big step forward in how we bring culturally defining audio-first franchises to life for Netflix audiences around the world."
The expansion builds on iHeartMedia and Netflix’s exclusive video podcast collaboration announced in December. The show launched in 2010 and was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 2020. Past guests have included former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden, Jay-Z, Cardi B and Kendrick Lamar.
