The extremely outspoken former talk show host Rosie O’Donnell is going back to work. This time she will be heard and not seen. O’Donnell has landed herself a show on Sirius XM Radio.
With the encouragement of Sirius Radio show host Howard Stern, Rosie will have her own two-hour show called Rosie Radio.
Earlier in the year O’Donnell was on Stern’s show and after her guest appearance Howard spoke to Rosie about a new airwaves gig. Sirius then contacted her and she was able to broker a deal that will allow her to work from the comfort of her own home. She had this to say about her new opportunity:
“I think it will be good for me. I’ve been lucky. I’ve had seven years of early retirement. All my kids are in school now, so all day long I have nothing to do. This was the first year that they were all in school all day, and I found myself very bored. I was saying to Kelli, we either need to get another kid or I’ll have to go back to work.”
Work it is! The call in show will air Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. ET on SIRIUS channel 102 and XM channel 155 beginning this fall.
