Sean Hannity, a well-known Fox News host, is starting a new monthly interview show on Fox Nation, a streaming service owned by Fox Corp. The show, simply titled "Sean, " will feature in-depth interviews with people from the worlds of sports, entertainment, and politics. Hannity is excited to share these conversations with viewers, as he's met many fascinating people throughout his career.

The second episode will have ESPN's Stephen A. Smith, and the third episode will feature fitness trainer Jillian Michaels. Interview shows like these have been popular on cable news before, with hosts like Larry King and Chris Wallace.

Fox Nation is trying to offer different types of programming compared to its cable network. While it has conservative opinion shows, it's also adding lifestyle and celebrity formats. Hannity has done streaming before, but this new show will require more of his time.

Fox News might think that having fewer episodes will help the show succeed. Chris Wallace had a similar weekly show on CNN, but it had some bumps in the road. Lauren Petterson, the president of Fox Nation, thinks Hannity's political commentary and long career make him a great fit for these kinds of interviews.
