Fox Business Network announced on Wednesday that Brian Brenberg will join Dagen McDowell as the new co-host of its 6 p.m. ET program, The Bottom Line.
Brenberg begins his new assignment on Monday, December 8. He will continue his midday co-hosting duties on The Big Money Show, alongside McDowell, Jackie DeAngelis, and Taylor Riggs.
“It’s been great to work with Dagen on The Big Money Show, and I am excited to join her on The Bottom Line,” said Brenberg. He added that, in joining The Bottom Line, they can continue conversations “surrounding the biggest market movers and business drivers that are impacting Main Street, Wall Street, and everyday Americans.”
Brenberg was one of the original co-hosts of The Big Money Show when it launched in December 2022. Meanwhile, The Bottom Line debuted in January 2023 and has become the top business program in its timeslot, regularly topping CNBC’s Mad Money with Jim Cramer, according to Nielsen Media Research.
“Brian’s authentic approach to top financial news has made him a great addition to the network, and we’re thrilled to have him join The Bottom Line,” Ralph Giordano, FBN’s senior vice president of programming, said. “As co-host of The Big Money Show, he’s built a strong rapport with Dagen, and together their extensive knowledge of the financial industry and experience will add increased depth to our post-market coverage, the economy, and the financial industry.”
Brenberg fills the spot vacated by former co-host Sean Duffy, who relinquished his TV duties to join the Donald Trump administration as U.S. Secretary of Transportation in November 2024. Since Duffy’s departure from The Bottom Line, McDowell was joined by a rotating crew of co-hosts.
