SiriusXM Vice President Dave Gorab said in a statement that Bannon had cultivated a "lasting bond" with his audience, one that would be resumed with his return. "During the 2016 campaign, Steve empowered SiriusXM Patriot listeners to have a voice and be part of the electoral process," Gorab said.
During his previous stint on SiriusXM, Bannon had featured guests like controversial former Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos, then-candidate Donald Trump, and then-Alabama senator Jeff Sessions.
