Today Show cohost Craig Melvin joins us for a conversation around being dad, hosting the Today Show, his brand new book "I'm Proud of You," and of course.....Hootie....and more! Oh, and sadly Ryan couldn't make this one. He was definitely missed! Just don't tell him that - he'll get a big head about it.

Other things you might (ok, actually WILL) hear on the podcast...

"You’ve left your mark; one might say, your stain."

"It’s like you’re eating a fruity cloud."

"I think a lot of the ills in society can be resolved with a little empathy and a little grace."

You can probably guess which one came from Craig.

Also, Alyssa shares some nutritional secrets and Jeremy somehow resists the temptation to joke about his dead dad. Aren't you proud?

Things you might (ok, actually WILL) hear on the podcast...

"For a number of years I thought lemon desserts were for old people. Turns out I'm a big, big fan."

"We'll give you $45 an hour in hugs."

"I went to the bathroom and everything changed."

Ryan talks about going to the bathroom (right?), Alyssa shares about her newly found love (here's a hint: it involves lemons) and Jeremy talks about Milli Vanilli (not really sure why though).

We also have segments again! "I wish...", "the Bible verse I've been jamming on is..." and "my favorite...."

Things you might (ok, actually WILL) hear on the podcast....

"I would like for Frosted Mini Wheats to not get soggy after 10 seconds. I wish that they made them differently so they could not taste like crap after 6 bites."

"Here’s what I wish. Bottom golf. Where you’re at the bottom of a big quarry and you have to be able to hit it out of the quarry."

"I'm gonna be the first council person to have 2 running mates."

Ryan shares his dream of a breakfast restaurant that's open at night (original, huh?), Alyssa shares her favorite coffee creamer flavor (slow news day), and Jeremy goes off about some area stoplights (first world problems).

We also have segments again! "I wish...," "the Bible verse I've been jamming on is...," and "my favorite....."
