'Today': Hoda Kotb, Savannah Guthrie Surprised By Similar Choice They Both Made In Their Youth
Sometimes you feel as though you have nothing in common with your co-workers. However, that's not the case for "Today" personalities Hoda Kotb, Savannah Guthrie, Al Roker, and Carson Daly due to an unexpected similarity the NBC stars realized they all share.
As seen in a clip below, the aforementioned anchors made the discovery during Monday's episode of the morning news show. During the broadcast, correspondent Craig Melvin reminisced about his time at his high school prom, which prompted weatherman Al Roker to reveal that he hadn't gone to his.
"I couldn't get a date," Roker said, adding. "So, there you go. Sad, but I'm over it."

After hearing about Roker's own experience, Kotb revealed that she too hadn't gone to hers. Following the pattern, Guthrie noted that a theme seemed to be appearing before both she and Daly said that they had also avoided the event in their younger days.
As for why the former "TRL" host hadn't gone to his, he shared that at the time he had "stayed home and watched '60 Minutes'" with his dad. Upon hearing what his NBC co-stars had to say, Daly then quipped, "The takeaway here, for those of you watching if you ever want to be a part of the 'Today' show. Prerequisite no. 1: Don't go to prom."

Later, before ending the segment, Guthrie added, "High school dorks can do better. There's hope, okay? Look at us—except for Craig. He was cool."
Aside from the aforementioned clip, "Today" has remained a topic of conversation in recent weeks for a variety of other reasons. Not only have Guthrie and Roker opted to fulfill their on-air appearances from home for a specific reason, but Kotb also elaborated on the "incredible" part of self-isolating amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Additionally, the NBC stars also discussed the recent passing of a colleague as a result of COVID-19 compilations.
