The relaunch will offer programming for a wide range of audiences, from small businesses to large corporate networks, and will remain true to its roots with interviews, insights, and Sheryl’s signature humor. “Now, finally, they’re getting their answer with the 2026 radio revival,” Underwood remarked about the anticipated return.
