The Foxxhole, SIRIUS channel 106, launched May 17, and Foxx appeared on NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno May 18 to promote it.
Foxx will broadcast live on The Foxxhole from wherever he is in the world. Listeners can tune in to find out when he will be on the air, and like Foxx himself, the material he delivers will be unpredictable. From riffing through jokes to transforming into both well-known and just-invented characters, to playing music and hanging out with a variety of cool people, anything is possible.
Foxx's roots are in comedy and he has since branched out to award-winning music and acting projects: The Foxxhole ties all three of his worlds together. The channel features original comedy bits and sketches, as well as new comedic and musical talent never heard before. In addition, The Foxxhole features material from the comedy legends Foxx has listened to and admired his whole life. Foxx's friends from the music industry may even stop by to debut their new singles, albums, and material.
