Lino Rulli said today that by the end of the show (Sirius 159, XM 117 until 7 p.m. eastern), we'd know the results of his contract negotiation. Sounds like has a decision already made.

This is just speculation, but he did let the answer slip. Lino was talking about podcasting, and said that they'd have a podcast for The Catholic Guy soon. If he's leaving, if the show is going away, why would the show get a podcast in the near future?

We'll wait for the official announcement, but it sounds like Lino is here to stay, at least for another year.

UPDATE: Lino is waiting until Monday. Rip-off!
