Al Roker: A Series of Happy Accidents

On this episode, Donny sits down with "America's weatherman” and co-anchor of the 3rd Hour of TODAY, NBC TODAY Show’s, Al Roker. With more than 40 years on TV and 14 Emmy Awards, Al is an institution. Together they take us through Al's career, how he got his foot in the door, and the advice he got from his mentor, Willard Scott. They also discuss what makes TODAY Show’s “secret sauce”, why you can't think "small" in the business of broadcasting, and Al's take on why we're so divided as a people. But first, Donny dives right into naming Mitch McConnell, Platonic Co-Parenting, Dolly Parton, and Jet Blue among many others as either rising up or major flops in his weekly Brands of the Week segment.
