Sirius + XM Merger

I can’t find any credible news source to back this information up so I hesitantly am putting in the “news” category, but please keep that in mind before getting too excited. This morning a Sirius employee told me, a Sirius customer, that regulatory approval of the Sirius + XM merger has been approved. It’s especially interesting how the discussion came up because it was totally unrelated to what the call was about.

You can hear our discussion below and to be clear I didn’t receive a vague confirmation, I received several confirmations of this being a fact during the call. Listen and judge for yourself. It is possible this is just one misinformed employee, especially since no news sources are carrying the news, but is it possible they know something internally that the rest of the world does not?

The call took place within the last hour and I informed Matthew the call was being recorded. Sirius also records calls with their customers so they have a record as well. I edited out the non-relevant portions of the call before and after the merger approval discussion in the audio below, but I do have a complete recording from beginning to end. I uploaded the edited recording to my Utterz account as well.

Note: not only does Sirius employee Matthew confirm the regulatory approval but provides additional details about the merger that I couldn’t find anywhere else including siriusmerger.com. Was Matthew just making this up, being overconfident, misinterpreting some internal Sirius information or is this true?
