Ramaswamy has signed a deal with Fox Nation to host a new series called Truths With Vivek Ramaswamy.

According to Fox Nation, the new show will focus on presenting “a positive alternative to the left’s vision for the future by presenting hard ‘truths’ that the American conservative movement must embrace.”

Ramaswamy shared, “Today, conservatives know what we’re against. But what exactly do we stand for? To answer that question, we need to talk to every American, not just those who agree with us.”

“That’s the subject of my new book Truths: The Future of America-First, and I enjoyed partnering with Fox Nation to host provocative dinner table conversations that we rarely have in our country anymore,” added Ramaswamy.

Per The Hollywood Reporter:

Vivek Ramaswamy is getting into business with Fox News.

The former Republican presidential hopeful has signed on to host a new series for the Fox Nation streaming service. The series, called Truths With Vivek Ramaswamy, will debut Sunday, Sept. 22, and will also run on Fox News that evening at 10 p.m.

Truths will see Ramaswamy present “a positive alternative to the left’s vision for the future by presenting hard ‘truths’ that the American conservative movement must embrace,” per Fox. The five episode series will include a roundtable-style format, with Ramaswamy joined during the series by a panel that includes his wife Apoorva Ramaswamy, journalist Matt Taibbi, American theoretical physicist Steven Koonin, Priovant Therapeutics CEO Ben Zimmer and Rabbi Shmully Hecht.

All five episodes of Truths will be available on Sept. 22. In addition, Fox Nation will run a town hall-style special called Just Ask on Sept. 20, with Fox & Friends Weekend host Pete Hegseth moderating.

“Today conservatives know what we’re against. But what exactly do we stand for? To answer that question, we need to talk to every American, not just those who agree with us,” Ramaswamy said in a statement. “That’s the subject of my new book Truths: The Future of America-First, and I enjoyed partnering with Fox Nation to host provocative dinner table conversations that we rarely have in our country anymore.”

Here’s what the Western Journal reported:

He’s been a popular name bandied about to fill a role in the potential future administration of GOP presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump.

But is Vivek Ramaswamy taking a page out of a different Trump playbook instead?

According to a Fox News release, Ramaswamy — a tech entrepreneur-turned-GOP presidential hopeful and staunch Trump ally — does indeed appear to be leaning more towards “The Apprentice” than POTUS.

For the unfamiliar, long before Trump was a political tour de force, he was a television star who enjoyed his own reality television series and appearances in WWE, among other notable roles.

“FOX Nation has tapped former Republican presidential candidate and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy to host a new series for the platform, announced Lauren Petterson, president of the streaming service,” the Monday Fox News release read.
