Ryan Seacrest Can't Quit Radio, Inks New iHeart Deal (Exclusive) “Parents tell us, ‘My daughter has cancer there’s not much she looks forward to when she’s in the hospital, but every day at 2 o’clock when they’re going to play bingo in the studio, she can’t wait to go do it, and it takes her mind off of the treatment she’s getting,’” says Seacrest, who recently signed a three-year deal with iHeartMedia to continue hosting and producing across its iHeartRadio platforms. The family run foundation led by Seacrest’s sister, Meredith Seacrest Leach, who serves as executive director and chief operating officer, opened its first studio inside Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta in 2010 as an outlet for pediatric patients to experiment with radio broadcasting and learn new media during their hospital stay.
Ryan Seacrest, through his nonprofit, the Ryan Seacrest Foundation, has opened his 14th Seacrest Studio inside Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City.
