Many Below Deck fans were upset when Kate Chastain announced her departure from the show. In contrast, there were a couple stews who were probably relieved.
No one can blame her for being done with those long hours and all of the cleaning. However, Kate does enjoy providing her commentary, which is something the viewers will miss. Recently, Kate teased that she will be back on TV soon. In the meantime, she has another project starting up.
A press release from SiriusXM announced that Kate will host a new “limited-run show” on Andy Cohen’s SiriusXM channel Radio Andy. Will the “limited run” lead to an opportunity for a permanent slot if the show does well?
The show is called Unapologetically Kate Chastain, which is very on brand for the outspoken reality TV star.

The first episode launches on April 14. Kate plans to share her “unfiltered point of view on pop culture, social commentary and everything in between.” I’m also expecting her to talk about the current Bravo shows. She loves to live tweet, so she might as well elaborate on her opinions with this new radio show.
The show is one hour long and Kate will take calls from listeners. Alright, Reality Tea readers, some of you need to call in with some juicy questions. Kate is open to questions about “various topics, from current TV obsessions, to travel, and hilarious observations from her daily life.” But, of course, we really want that Below Deck scoop.

Kate said, “I’m absolutely thrilled about this opportunity to join SiriusXM’s Radio Andy family! It is both an honor and a major check off on my ‘mental vision-board bucket-list’ to join the lineup.”
She added, “I like to consider myself a recreational sociologist, which is quite liberating because it means I’m not judging people, I’m basically a scientist-ish. I look forward to voicing my thoughts with Radio Andy listeners nationwide!”

Andy remarked, “Kate has the perfect sensibility for radio; she’s opinionated, funny, outspoken and addictive. I’m so excited to hear what she has to say.”
