iHeartMedia Renews Deal With Charlamagne Tha God.

iHeartMedia has extended its relationship with Charlamagne Tha God, cementing a multi-year deal with the influential media figure and co-host of “The Breakfast Club” on urban contemporary “Power 105” WWPR New York. The Premiere Networks nationally syndicated morning show reaches more than seven million monthly listeners and celebrates its 15th anniversary this month.

Under the new agreement, Charlamagne will continue his role on “The Breakfast Club,” airing weekdays from 6-10am (ET), alongside DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious and Loren LoRosa, as well as the weekend edition, “Weekends with The Breakfast Club.” Known for its headline-making interviews and cultural impact, the show was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 2020.

The renewed pact also extends iHeart’s partnership with Charlamagne’s Black Effect Podcast Network, the joint venture launched in 2020 that has grown into the largest podcast publisher focused on Black audiences. The network now includes more than 60 shows and generates roughly 11 million monthly downloads. Earlier this year, “The Breakfast Club” replay podcast surpassed one billion downloads.

"When it comes to iHeartMedia, gratitude will always be my attitude. They’ve created space for me to grow not just as talent, but as an executive and true partner through The Black Effect Podcast Network,” said Charlamagne Tha God. “To say that I’m thankful is an understatement. iHeart is the biggest and best audio company on the planet and audio is the foundation on which the whole media conglomerate will be built. Podcasting, live events, TV/film and documentaries – the sky is the limit for where we are going; and radio will always be at the core of it. Here's to a new era of growth, impact, and prosperity.”

“Charlamagne has been a transformative voice in audio, redefining what it means to create content that sparks dialogue and drives cultural change. Through The Breakfast Club and his growing podcast network, he’s amplified diverse voices, tackled tough conversations, and built platforms that continue to resonate with audiences nationwide,” said Rich Bressler, President & COO for iHeartMedia. "His influence has helped shape the future of audio and we’re energized by what lies ahead and appreciate his ongoing trust in iHeart.”
