Stephen Colbert - what's his plan?

I'm looking for rumors about what Stephen Colbert plans to do after The Late Show bites the dust.

There hasn't been much talk, other than what CBS will do with his timeslot. For a while we were speculating on DU that Colbert could have a success podcast if he decides to go that way. Has anyone heard anything?

I'm all ears .....
