(Black PR Wire) SAN FRANCISCO – Tubi (www.tubitv.com), Fox Corporation’s ad-supported streaming service, today announced a groundbreaking partnership with iHeartMedia to bring the widely popular nationally syndicated radio show and podcast “The Breakfast Club” to Tubi viewers. For the first time ever, “The Breakfast Club” will be available not only on-demand, but also as a dedicated FAST Channel that will include greatest moments from episodes and original shortform content from the show.  Featuring DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God, and Jess Hilarious, “The Breakfast Club” boasts a global reach of six million monthly listeners and a massive social media following.

As of today, fans can enjoy “best of” moments from “The Breakfast Club” on-demand, with a FAST Channel launching in February, where they can also catch the morning show’s greatest moments daily, along with curated clips and highlights, all completely free. This landmark deal marks Tubi as the first AVOD platform to offer “The Breakfast Club” and the first to add the FAST channel, capitalizing on the show’s immense popularity and dedicated fanbase to drive viewership and engagement.

“The Breakfast Club” has become the bullhorn for modern culture and is widely regarded as the most informative and entertaining top-rated contemporary Hip-Hop/R&B morning show today. The Breakfast Club is a must-stop destination for musicians, entertainers, and politicians alike with guests on the show ranging from former President Barack Obama, President Joe Biden, and VP Kamala Harris to Jay-Z, Cardi B, Kendrick Lamar, Kevin Hart, Snoop Dogg, Future, 50 Cent, Lizzo, Will Smith, and Alicia Keys. The morning program originates from iHeartMedia’s legendary Power 105.1/WWPR-FM in New York and is nationally syndicated by Premiere Networks on more than 100 stations nationwide, including markets such as Houston, Atlanta, Miami, and Detroit; and is also a leading iHeartPodcast available on iHeartRadio and everywhere podcasts are heard. The Radio Hall of Famers also host “Weekends with The Breakfast Club,” a three-hour weekly program featuring a countdown of the top 20 hits of the week.
