The father of two also patrick thunderbolt has an answer for everything where. Wow. Thats going to follow you. I like that name. Thats memorable. Thunderbolt. He was on with matt and meredith and came up with his porn name. Thats what it was. In case you are wondering. Im not going to ask you what yourself would be. Lilliana is back with a classic style making a big comeback this winter. That youre going to want to check out. Plus, the crack brothers what . Pronounce the t. Turn this studio into a real zoo. Were going to talk to them. By the way, happy birthday today. To us. It feels like another year has gone by since we started celebrating the 65 years. Actually, tomorrow is the day that the today show debuted. Weve been looking back all week. Weve been celebrating all morning. Its kind of fun to watch these old videos. Especially in black and white of what the today show is like. Theres pictures of Woodrow Wilson walking outside of the glass. Al roker is going to help us mark the anniversary. Were going to have some fun with that. That was what was going on in 1952. The average price of a new house is 9,000. You couldnt get a new kitchen for that. Only one of three homes had a television. Wow. Now every home has five in each house. A gallon of gas was 20 cents. The average age of a woman getting married . What do you think it was . 20. 20. The big shows were i love lucy. Still great. And the ed sullivan show. And a show called life with elizabeth that introduced a brand new actress. Look how lovely she was and still is. Betty white. Singing in the rain was in theaters in 1953. Debbie reynolds. And gene kelly. All of them. Hey, neil, thats when stars were stars, right, baby . Amazing. That movie is fantastic. I figured out your porn name. What is it . Cod be da ho. Do you like it . Its perfect. You could stop right there. All right. Yeah. That was good. All right. The first rollon deodorant was made that year. Mr. Potato head was popular. Elizabeth ii became queen after the death of her father. Boy is she lovely. She is. The letter to the first daughters, that was written by jenna and barbara bush to sasha and maliyah obama. Are we going to show that . Jenna and her sister were trying to figure out what they could leave to the daughters when they first arrived at the white house, and then barbara had showed them around. Anyway, they wrote a nice letter, but heres a piece of it. Now youre about to join another rarefied club. One of former first children. A position you didnt seek and one with no guidelines, but you have so much to look forward to. Youll be writing the story of your own lives beyond the shadows of your famous parents. Yet, you will always carry with you the experiences of the past eight years. Enjoy college. As most of the world knows we did. And you wont have the weight of the world on your young shoulders anymore. Explore your passions. Learn who you are. Make mistakes. Youre allowed to. You have lived through the unbelievable pressure of the white house. You have listened to Harsh Criticism of your parents by people who have never even met them. You stood by as your precious parents were reduced to headlines. Your parents who put you first and not only showed you but gave you the world. As always, they will be rooting for you as you begin this next chapter. Just couldnt have been better. You know . And so will we. Which is the very last line. Beautiful. Anyway, sasha was only. Maliyah was only 11. Do you think theyre excited . Im sure to just start living. Yeah, to start living their lives. Big news. I knew this a couple of tell, tell, tell. I have become friends with kimberly schlattman from little big town. The other day she and i were texting. She said i have a secret. She showed me the most beautiful picture. Its she and her husband steven have adopted a beautiful little baby girl. They announced it on instagram with this picture. Listen to her name. Dolly grace. Isnt that fabulous . She joins big sis daisy pearl who is 9. Shes one of the nicest people weve ever met, isnt she . The sweetest. Sweetest. Theyre all great. She is so great to see her growing family. Is this something any of us would do . I want you to think about it too. What are you doing now . What did you come up with . Shale. Shale. Thats not my porn name though, right . No, thats your porn name too. The clue is sedimentary rock. Would you squeeze in a workout at an airport . Say you had a twohour layover. I always think thats strange. In airport lounges they have showers. Have you ever showered at an airport lounge . That seems weird. People maybe theyre not showering. Theres actual gyms now at airports . Theyre thinking about trying to put them in. Theyre thinking if you have two hours to kill, theyll put in a gym. You can work out, shower, and get on the plane. Theyre going to have cardio equipment, stretching a space to stretch, weights, all that stuff. Kind of a cool idea. You think . Long flights youre sitting in a chair, sitting, sitting, sitting the whole time. Even to stretch and do some cardio. I think you could get a hair blowout. You could get your nails done. You can rent the workout clothes. Some people might not have time to shower if theyre late for their flight. Theyre like, oh or your sweaty clothes that you have. Not everyone is going to tie them up. Theyre going to be sitting in a bag. Theyre not going to be happy for you that you lost a pound. Exactly. They do say that they will seal your stinky clothes in some kind of a vacuum packed who knows . Its 40 for a day pass. Can we go on, please . Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. This is going to be fun because we like our wine. Everybody knows that. In other parts of the country, other parts of the world people have different ways of enjoying their wine. To start this anniversary off we thought we would try some new things with some favorite thing, wine. One is called wine coke. Its called a calamocco. I think we need a little help with this. Dont you . Tasting things . Yes. Were not so thirsty for those. I think we should bring out on her very last day joanne lamarka. Who shall remain nameless. Just to try some drinks for us, jojo. Zoo thats not wh thats not really what its all about. Our precious joanne for all these years, who is this is her last day with us temporarily. We were in denial that she were refusing that shes leaving. You have made us try a lot of this is how you thank me for all these wonderful years weve had together . So youre going to try some things with us. Its wine and coke. Let us know how it is. Do you remember the last time hoda made me try something on the air . Did you get sick . I got sick. Be careful. We dont want her to be sick on the last day. Take a baby sip. This was tammys idea. This is good. Is it . This is good. You know, reigna said she drinks this all the time. Its very popular in mexico, and its a very good new years drink. Its very good. Get used to that because now youre going to have a drink thats popular in spain. Wine and sprite. Thats probably good. Its a little like colonoscopy fluid. This is why were going to miss her. Thats really bad. This is wine with coffee. Its vodka, coffee, red wine, and simple syrup in a chilled wine glass. Russian wine. Does anybody have bread . Bread . Were going to torture you the entire show. Ah nasty . Ah you know what, tammy wine and milk. Okay. Popular in japan. Really . Just touch your lips.

We have been celebrating our girl joanne. Yesterday we had a little lunch for joanne at marys. Lets take a look.

Joanne has decided that shes going to take some time away from the job. Shes been our heart and soul of our show, and were going to miss her, but i agree with kath, i think shes coming back. Shes going to let us know, but she has a beautiful family and a little boy that you feel like youre just not im not there for. I need to be this is my favorite job, and that is my most important job, and hopefully it will be my favorite job too, but its time for me to have some fun with him. Okay. We love you. And your husband. Remember him . We love you, sweetie. Were probably going to be torturing a little as the day goes on. I i want to thank you for some of the best years of my life. We love you.

Neil Patrick Harris. Thunderbolt now neil is showing off his darker side and having a lot of fun playing the evil count oloff in the new netflix show a series of unfortunate eventeeve based on that bestselling series of childrens novels. Can you translate the latin phrase acting in the role of parent. Thats right. And thats me. You see, violet can get married if she has the permission of her legal guardian. And she does. In fact, she has more than permission. She has enthusiasm. Scary. You are creepy. How fun, though . How fun . Its really fun. I like technical acting. Thats sort of my thing, and so i choose different random skill sets and different random jobs, and this one ive never done the prosthetics thing before. Two and a half hours each day. Almost three hours. How much to get it off . That was about half hour, 40 minutes. And it wreaks havoc on your skin . I did a vote i filmed on the mirror. This was the first half. Thats just the prosthetics part. You have your eyes closed. Just on purpose. Do they ask you too . You dont want to see it until the end . Its because the prosthetic starts right underneath the eyebrow and went up. Does that change how you act when you get all that gear on . Does it make you i think it depends on the part, but i certainly am not myself when i look that way. Every time i see me, im always thinking about the character. This character changes a lot, right . Into different looks . Theres 13 books in the series, and they were just launched, and theres eight episodes covering the first four books. The olof that you are seeing here is in the first two episodes. The first book in full, and then he is sent away, and then he comes back in the second book, but in disguise. Im not a different character. Im olof playing a different character. Its a different look is what i mean. I get to talk like this. And then theres captain sham who is a salty sea captain. Then thats sham there. Then theres a woman named shirley st. Ives, and shes in the fourth book, and she has red hair, and shes an assistant. Shes a little christina hendricks, 1940s. It was really fun. I smell an emmy. Im sorry. Is that what smells . I thought it was you. The academy loves this stuff. Its netflix, which i have never done before, and they allow a creative freedom. They buy the creative content, and they agree to commit to it, and then they let you go make it. It was great. Its their first four quadrant show, which allows four different demographics. Were playing to multiple people. Everyone can watch it. It really legitimately is something that is quirky and odd and comicony enough for 20 somethings and children and parents. Can you stream them right now. What are you doing right now watching this when you could be watching that . What were you going to say . What are you watching this piece of this piece of Primetime Network awesomeness. But were going to go home and watch some of the episodes today. How fun. The kids see you in the mask. We filmed in vancouver, right . They live here in new york, and so we would facetime every day. I would get to see them and catch up with them. Sometimes i would be looking like baldheaded, and sometimes i would look like shirley. They were freaked out a little bit. How are the kids . Are they terrific . Theyre spectacular. Its a really good age. Theyre 6 and in kindergarten, and the age right now is theyre just starting to read, and, i mean, just starting to read. We were driving last night in a car to have dinner, and the windows were rolled down because it was warm last night, and they were reading the signs on the street, and it was thats like the best.
