<p>CNN CEO Chris Licht announced over the weekend that left-wing network is launching a new show featuring former NBA star Charles Barkley and CBS host Gayle King.</p>
<p>The new one-hour program will reportedly launch this fall on Wednesday nights and will continue through 2024.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am thrilled to share that CNN will be home to a new show featuring the extraordinary duo of Gayle King and Charles Barkley, aptly titled King Charles, which will air weekly in primetime beginning this fall and running into 2024,&#8221; Licht said in a statement. &#8220;This show will be an exciting new way we are delivering culturally relevant programming and unique perspectives to our audience, from two incredibly dynamic personalities.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We are excited that they are both able to join us in addition to their current respective roles with Gayle continuing to anchor CBS Mornings,&#8221; he added. &#8220;King Charles exemplifies the one-team, one-company mentality with Charles playing double duty at CNN and in his role at WBD Sports.&#8221;</p>
<p>Barkley, who currently works as an NBA analyst, sat down with King on TNT&#8217;s NBA Tip-Off to discuss the new show.</p>
<p>“I want the show to be nonpolitical,” Barkley <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/charles-barkley-gayle-king-host-021000729.html">said</a>. &#8220;We don’t want to say we’re a Liberal, Conservative, Republican, Democrat; that’s one of the things that’s already ruined television in general.”</p>
<p>“You know (Gayle King) is going to be a straight shooter,&#8221; he claimed. &#8220;I’m going to be a straight shooter. I know she’s going to be fair and honest and you know I’m going to do the same thing.”</p>
<p>King is a noted leftist who has <a href="https://pagesix.com/2017/04/20/old-school-journalists-pissed-about-gayle-kings-vacation-with-the-obamas/">vacationed</a> with the Obamas.</p>
<p>“I think that decorum and courtesy and kindness always work,” King said. “But everybody I know has an opinion on something. We just need to figure out a way to have a good conversation without tearing each other down. And I think we can do that.”</p>
