Howard first announced the bash on his Sirius XM show, where he told listeners:
“We are having a birthday blowout bash like the country has never seen before. [...] Sirius[XM] has put a tremendous amount of money into this production. We’re going to have it Friday night, Jan. 31, which is a little past my birthday. [...] Live radio, and it’s going to be one of these shows that I think is gonna be very special, and very special for the fans. [...] My dear friend and buddy Jimmy Kimmel will be hosting the show. [...] And the list of people who have already signed on for this--there are two or three people who I want to mention but I won’t. [...] We think it could be anywhere from two-and-a-half to four hours.”
