Prior to this, Hannity was known for co-hosting Hannity & Colmes, alongside Alan Colmes, from 1996 to 2009. He is also known for hosting the talk radio show, The Sean Hannity Show.

Hannity Also Opened Up About The Situation On His Radio Show
Taking to X, Hannity initially shared this thanks to fans who expressed their concerns. He expressed, “Thanks to everyone who has checked in. I’ve already addressed this several times on my radio show. But while training, I developed a painful pinched nerve in my neck.”
The Fox News alum continued, connecting any changes expressed by fans to his medication. He continued, “My doctor put me on prednisone to reduce the inflammation, and while it’s helping, it led to laryngitis and some puffiness, which is normal for this medication. I’m fine, recovering well, and still training, but apparently a few weeks of prednisone has generated more social media commentary than 30 years of ratings success.”

Around this time, Hannity also talked about the situation on his radio show. As noted by Deadline, he shared, “I actually went to a doctor, and what he said is I had a bad sinus infection, which led to laryngitis, and I didn’t wanna take this crappy medicine called prednisone, and so he just said to ride it out, don’t worry about it, you’re not hurting your vocal cords at all.”
