Few are as booked and busy as Kelly Ripa has been determined to be for most of her career, and now she is expanding her oeuvre even more so!
The star, who has hosted Live! With Kelly and Ryan for over twenty years, first joining Regis Philbin in 2001, has another show on her hands now, this time a podcast.
Deadline announced that through her other venture, Milojo Productions with her husband Mark Consuelos, she is launching a podcast in collaboration with SiriusXM.

She will host and produce the new show, aptly titled Let's Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa, which will see her do what she does best, have impactful conversations with celebrity guests, specialists and experts from varying industries, and more.
"After 23 years of interviewing celebrities, authors, musicians and experts on live TV, the big takeaway is that the most compelling and unfiltered conversations happen off camera," Kelly said in a statement.
