Bill O'Reilly returns Monday night with free podcast

Bill O'Reilly is coming back.

The former Fox News host is set to appear Monday night with a new episode of his "No Spin News" podcast. The news was revealed in an update to O'Reilly's personal website Saturday night.

The podcast, available to premium subscribers of O'Reilly's website, would be the former cable news host's first time speaking publicly since his ouster at Fox News Wednesday following an investigation into allegations of sexual harassment. O'Reilly was previously the host of The O'Reilly Factor on the network, anchoring a steady ratings winner for the network for over two decades.

Fox News took The Factor off the air Friday night, with Greg Gutfeld filling in for the final broadcast.

O'Reilly is making the "No Spin News" podcast free this week, according to his website billoreilly.com. The podcast is scheduled to be available at 7 p.m. ET.

Starting May 1, the podcast will again be available only to premium members ($4.95 a month or $49.95 annually). All revenue O'Reilly makes on the site goes to charities including The Independence Fund, Haitian Health Foundation, Fisher House and Operation Shoebox.

The site has an archive of No Spin News entries that goes back to 2010. On O'Reilly's most recent podcast (April 11, lasting three minutes, 14 seconds), he talked about his upcoming vacation -- photos showed him in Vatican City shaking the hand of Pope Francis -- and plans to announce his latest book upon his return.
