SiriusXM and Fox News Media have launched a new streaming bundle that gives subscribers access to hundreds of streaming audio channels, on-demand podcasts and original television program from SiriusXM’s app and the streaming service Fox Nation at a single price point.

The SiriusXM-Fox Nation streaming bundle is priced at $12 per month, and includes a subscription to SiriusXM’s All Access plan for phones, tablets, computers, smart TVs and smart speakers, as well as the entire programming catalog of Fox Nation.

The monthly price represents a savings of 33 percent compared to the retail prices of Fox Nation ($6 per month) and SiriusXM All Access ($10 per month, streaming only).

“Fox News Media and SiriusXM are leaders in news and entertainment programming respectively, and we are delighted to bring to the market a bundle of our streaming services that offers exceptional consumer value,” said Dave Geary, the Senior Vice President of Business Development and Partnerships at SiriusXM. “Fox Nation’s library of original video programming and SiriusXM’s vast offering of music for every mood and moment, live sports from every major league, plus entertainment and news combine to make a highly attractive streaming audio and video bundle.”

SiriusXM and Fox News Media have enjoyed a long-standing, content-driven partnership for more than two decades, with Fox News Media’s two cable news channels — Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network — simulcast on SiriusXM’s satellite and streaming radio platforms. Fox News Media also programs an exclusive channel for SiriusXM, called Fox News Headlines 24/7, and the radio company distributes some Fox News Radio programming across its other channels.

Now, SiriusXM subscribers who take advantage of the streaming bundle will also be able to access Fox Nation programming like “What Did I Miss?”, the new game show from Greg Gutfeld; “Yellowstone to Yosemite,” a nature documentary hosted by Kevin Costner, and comedy specials from Rob Schneider, Roseanne Barr and others.

“We are excited to work with our partners at SiriusXM to bring fans of Fox News the opportunity to access extensive content offerings at a discounted price,” Jay Wallace, the President and Executive Editor at Fox News Media, said in a statement on Tuesday. “From Fox Nation’s on-demand original entertainment, lifestyle, and faith content to SiriusXM’s vast line up of music, sports, comedy and more, we are thrilled bundle subscribers will enjoy premier programming across all interests.”

Earlier this month, SiriusXM disclosed it had around 30 million satellite and streaming radio subscribers. Fox Nation does not regularly report its customer count, but executives recently confirmed the service has north of 2 million subscribers.

The SiriusXM-Fox Nation bundle is the latest streaming video pairing to involve SiriusXM in recent months. Last October, SiriusXM announced it would offer some of its satellite and streaming radio customers a six-month trial to the Walt Disney Company’s streaming sports platform ESPN Plus. Likewise, ESPN Plus subscribers were offered a six-month trial to SiriusXM’s streaming app.
