Sirius XM Radio announced yesterday that former talk show host and explosive "View" co-host Rosie O'Donnell will be hosting her own daily morning show on satellite radio come this fall.

The show, called "Rosie Radio," will be a two-hour weekday talk show featuring Rosie's unique take on the world -- "an eclectic mix of humor, pop culture and serious conversation," the satellite radio network said.

"Rosie Radio" will also have "an ensemble feel" thanks to a variety of guests who will be sitting in to talk with Rosie, including celebrities and average Joes. We doubt that Rosie's former "View" co-hosts Elisabeth Hasselbeck or Barbara Walters will be among the guests who join in the fun, although that would make for great ratings.
