While she was there to promote the book, she also had to catch up with her old friend, Hoda Kotb. They haven’t regularly shared the stage in years, but the old friends didn’t seem to miss a beat during the interview.

Hoda and Kathie Lee were just chatting before their tease –– and they are already making us laugh!” the Today X account shared online, hyping up the audience for the upcoming segment. “Coming up next, Kathie Lee Gifford is sitting down with Hoda Kotb to talk about her latest project.”

Kathie Lee maintained that she no longer had much of an exciting life, but felt proud about her new book.

“Do you know what Regis would say to you about this book?” she asked, referencing her former cohost on Live! With Regis And Kathie Lee, “And yet another book, you’ll never read!”

The women continued bantering, with Kathie Lee thanking Hoda for reading “two pages” of the new book.

“I read three. You’re welcome!” Hoda quipped back.

The Former Today Hostess Recovers From A Serious Procedure

Amid her latest Today appearance, Kathie Lee Gifford is also recovering from surgery on her hips. Although the 70-year-old woman has enjoyed an incredibly active life so far, her body is having trouble keeping up.

“I walked, I climbed, I walked, and my doctor said, ‘Kathie, no. You have got to realize that this is serious,’” she told PEOPLE in a recent interview. “And I was off my walker in two days. I was off all my medications in three days, and then I did too much. I just did too much because that’s who I am.”

As Kathie Lee learns to slow down and take it easy, it’s entirely possible she will return to the Today set more often. Check out her full appearance here:
