How Al Roker Ended Up on GMA This Morning

Yes, it’s a small world, this industry.

On Good Morning America, ABC’s Deborah Roberts was cooking up some down home meals during a segment with Chris Cuomo. Roberts, who’d never before cooked on television, got a mid-segment phone call from her husband, Al Roker. Roker was given the simple chyron, Al.

The conversation began, and ended, with plenty of inter-network hazing…

Roker: “I took the day off from the Today show just to be able to bust you.”

Cuomo: “Al Roker, ladies and gentleman. CBS’s Al Roker is on the phone right now.”

…before all agreed that Roberts makes a mean potato salad.
