The Today host appeared as a guest on The Kelly Clarkson Show alongside his wife, Deborah Roberts. He was also recently a guest on the podcast Your Mama’s Kitchen with Michele Norris.
Both appearances focused on the difficult time Al has had over the last year. In November 2022, he was hospitalized due to blood clots in his legs and lungs. He admitted in a conversation with Michele Norris that he almost died.
Now, his wife says that Al Roker is always looking forward. He is “ever the optimist, but it was a very, very difficult time, and we are so blessed to have him in full form and just great,” she told Kelly Clarkson.
Could the next thing Al is looking forward to be a new, exciting job?
Al Begs Scarlett Johansson For A New Job
Scarlett Johansson made a guest appearance on Today to talk about her new skincare line. She spoke with Savannah Guthrie about The Outset, the name of her new brand.
However, Johansson took the opportunity to have some fun on the set of Today while she was there too. The Marvel movie star gave directing the show a try from the Studio 1A control room.
Then she made her way over to Al Roker to help out with the weather report. Al gave her some direction throughout the report and the pair seemed to have fun together.

After they were done reporting the weather, the Today weatherman had a few questions for Scarlett Johansson. “Now that you’ve done weather, are you on your way to the Marvel set?” Al asked.
He made a few hints at Scarlett helping him land a new job at Marvel Studios.
“Wait a minute, I thought we talked about this prior, Al,” Scarlett laughed. “I need you to sign some paperwork before we talk, okay?”
Pretending to be exasperated, Scarlett Johansson exclaimed that he was asking all of the hard questions. “That’s what we do,” Al Roker replied, joking.
There aren’t any signs that Al Roker will be leaving Today any time soon though. So, fans will be able to continue enjoying his quips on the daily talk show.
