Iheart has announced that Katie Couric's show will air on October 10th.

iHeartMedia has announced the official launch of "Next Question with Katie Couric," an iHeartRadio Original Podcast hosted by award-winning journalist and author Katie Couric. The show will explore some of today's most important issues and trends through conversations that span news, politics and pop culture. The second of 12 weekly episodes will be available October 10 on iHeartRadio. The first, on how pornography is impacting sexual relationships, was released as a sneak preview.

Topics include the ABC's of CBD, Jennifer Garner's foray into entrepreneurship, whether ageism is the last socially acceptable "ism," the eSports universe, and a conversation with a former white supremacist who now works to deradicalize others.

This from someone whose voice was so bad CBS pulled her off the 5PM ET hourlies on the radio after a week...
 
I can't believe iHeart is paying a lot, if anything for this. I suspect this is more of a revenue sharing arrangement where Couric was looking for a good platform to host her foray into podcasting. While she's talented, her draw is a small fraction of what it once was and there aren't a lot of revenue opportunities for a podcast. Hopefully this works out for both of them, but the odds are against this being anything exceptional from a ratings/revenue perspective.

Iheart has announced that Katie Couric will have a second season podcast for their app.

Katie Couric Media and iHeartMedia today announced the new season of "Next Question with Katie Couric," an iHeartRadio Original podcast hosted by award-winning journalist Katie Couric. In its second season, Couric will continue to examine critical issues like America's staggering maternal mortality rate, the environmental impact of meat consumption, the most cutting-edge health and wellness regimens, and the 2020 presidential election. Season two episodes will be distributed through the iHeartPodcast Network beginning today and can be heard now on iHeartRadio and everywhere else podcasts are available. New episodes will air every Thursday.

The first episode examines the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) and the history of an effort that began in 1923. Now that Virginia has become the 38th state to ratify the ERA, what's next? Guests include Heidi Schreck, whose critically-acclaimed Broadway show What the Constitution Means to Me brought the 233 year-old document to life.
