Matt Rogers Shines as Guest Host on Jenna & Friends

NEW YORK, NY — Actor and comedian Matt Rogers is making waves as a guest host on NBC’s “Jenna & Friends” this week, captivating audiences alongside Jenna Bush Hager. Following the departure of Hoda Kotb earlier this year, the show has adopted a rotating series of co-hosts, but Rogers has quickly emerged as a standout choice.

Rogers, who is known for his work as the host of the “Las Culturistas” podcast, has earned acclaim throughout his career, including being named Comedy Central‘s “Comic to Watch” in 2016. Viewers tuning in this week have expressed their enthusiasm for Rogers, calling for him to receive a permanent spot on the show. Social media comments overflowed with praises like, “Simply beaming watching this duo,” and the playful demand, “GIVE HIM THE JOOOOOOB!”

Fans have responded positively to the chemistry shared between Rogers and Hager. “It’s like they are just meant to be hosting together,” said one viewer. Many appeared to agree, claiming they were “obsessed with this pairing,” emphasizing their hope for Rogers’ continued presence on the show.

This week marks a pivotal moment for Hager as she finds her rhythm post-Kotb. The seasoned anchor Kotb announced her departure earlier this year, describing her decision as a process of “repotting.” Kotb stated she is excited about new ventures, including plans for an app focused on wellness that aligns with her commitment to health.

As fans of “TODAY” watch these changes unfold, they remain hopeful that the charismatic duo of Hager and Rogers will define the future of the fourth hour of the beloved morning show.
