Governor Huntsman will host the show each week, interviewing members of Congress, members of the No Labels Problem Solvers group—more than 85 members of Congress dedicated to holding regular "across the aisle" meetings—and other guests committed to ending gridlock in Washington and interested in making historic change in the bipartisan dialogue in our nation's government.

"There doesn't have to be a state of perpetual fighting and gridlock," said Governor Jon Huntsman. "We hope to show SiriusXM listeners that there are political leaders in both parties who are deeply committed to reaching across the aisle, finding common ground and tackling the nation's toughest problems."
"The launch of No Labels Radio with Jon Huntsman comes at a time when it's never been more important for Americans from all backgrounds and their political leaders to come together," said Scott Greenstein, President and Chief Content Officer, SiriusXM. "The opportunity for SiriusXM listeners across the country to personally engage with Governor Huntsman and other leading problem solvers in this important national conversation is vital to our nation's renewal and recovery from the government shut down and related recent events."
