Kara DioGuardi has a new day job.

The American Idol judge and songwriter-producer is making like Ryan Seacrest and hitting the radio airwaves, launching her own Saturday show on Clear Channel's L.A.-based 104.3 MYfm.

"I am absolutely thrilled to be on air giving my take on some of the great music out there," she says.

Expect her take to include ample plays of Idol contestants and her own up-and-coming star, Jason Derulo.

DioGuardi's show will air Saturdays from 2 to 6 p.m.
