LOS ANGELES, Oct. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Meghan McCain announced today the launch of Citizen Cain Productions, with the mission to share female led stories and to highlight the rich tapestry of American life. 

For their first project Citizen Cain Productions will launch McCain's first hosting gig since her four-year stint on 'The View', "Meghan McCain Has Entered the Chat" on October 17.

"I could not be more thrilled to announce the start of Citizen Cain Productions and with it my podcast Meghan McCain Has Entered the Chat." said Meghan McCain. "Bringing women-led stories of all walks of life that are all too often dismissed has always been a dream of mine. I truly believe this opportunity will give a platform to those who haven't had the chance to share."

Dicopoulos shares her enthusiasm, "At Citizen Cain Productions, we are ready to adapt to current times, employ digital strategies, and we are not afraid to take risks. Whether we are creating formats around talent or developing out of the box ideas, we are actively looking for ways to break the mold of what is currently out in the marketplace." 

The podcast, Meghan McCain Has Entered the Chat, will premiere October 17th. The episodes can be found on all podcasting platforms.
