Sheinelle said that she will always stand behind Al Roker regarding the work he puts in.

“I would say most of the anchors here on the Today show, they have a good time and they’re fun and they’re smiling because they’ve done the work. You know what I mean?” Jones said. She then turned her attention to Al. She admitted that he knows ” forecast in and out. He knows the weather patterns. He also knows good television.”

Sheinelle said that he always shows up prepped for his interviews and can sit down and have a good time while talking to guests. She said this is because he is always completely prepared. After this, Shinnelle delivered her mic drop.

“So if anyone thinks that he just gets up there and just kind of phones it in, they couldn’t be further from the truth,” she said. “That man works his hiney off.”
