Is current AT40 host Ryan Seacrest a member of the now on strike as of July 14, 2023 SAG-AFTRA guild?

If Ryan was on strike, I am sure there will be guest-hosted shows on a weekly basis until it's over.
At least I am happy many game shows are not affected.

The bigger question is: are radio productions such as AT40 even covered by the SAG-AFTRA strike?
From what I've seen and read, there are segments of productions that are not covered by those guilds strikes, such as TV/basic cable animated productions (they have a separate contract), however animated feature productions ARE covered.

I've not seen anything indicating Ryan to be part of the strike, though with his multiple gigs/interests it's possible something he does could be affected. AT40 may not be part of that, though; for example, there was a months-long SAG-AFTRA strike in 1980 and Casey continued to host it as usual.

AT40 back in the 1980 day was never affected by the 1980 SAG/AFTRA strike even Casey still did the show (and even still did NBC TV network promos) as well as the just launched "America's Top 10" TV show.
Even a 1988 WGA Writer's Strike had no effect on AT40 as Casey was about to be replaced by Shadoe Stevens in Summer 1988.

I know that it's likely if any actors were to be interviewed on AT40, they can't plug anything they're currently working on because the strike prohibits anyone who is striking from doing any promotion of current projects.

In fact, it was just after the writers' strike ended that Shadoe Stevens took over as host of AT40. |

Another segment not affected are the soap operas on network t.v. They are under a different contract that runs until next year. |
