My mom just turned 60 and it looks like something she would wear in the summer? She's the most fun and interesting human I know and i can't imagine people telling her to dress like a boring nun because she's older and her knees or her arms are weird or whatever, she would just be like fuck that, LOL. But tbh the food stuff Mika talks about sounds really awful and crazy stressful. It's insane and ridiculous that something that should be happy like meals with your friends and family could be a cause of anxiety for some people...i honestly hope those who have this problem find a way to heal... I remember that Mika was criticized for calling her co author of that book fat. The co author acknowledged that she was over weight & apologized to Mika. It was very odd.

That makes sense. I recall that after the Matt Lauer scandal was revealed, Mika thanked Joe for warning her about Matt Lauer's behavior. Joe probably sent an email to NBC employees warning them that he was going steady with Mika & there would be negative consequences for trying to flirt with Mika. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/87160-the-hosts-thread-joe-and-mika-know-their-value/page/48/#findComment-6512046

It's a really weird picture of Mika on the cover of some magazine called Capitol File. The twisted hand pose is just off, and the fake tan is pretty bad, too. He also has a story on his Twitter about seeing Joe and Mika speak at an ambassador's house in DC. Joe and Mika talked about getting Mika's salary increased in negotiations and mentioned Know Your Value. I've lived in Washington, DC for almost two decades and I've never seen or heard of Capitol File until today. Edited to add, apparently the tweet about the magazine cover has been deleted. So here's a Facebook video of Meeks posing for the magazine. https://m.facebook.com/capitol.file/videos/560258137340239/ And here's Greg Kelly's tweet about the party.

Kemper January 6, 2021 Share January 6, 2021 Joe is very popular...and his show gets good ratings; this would be true even if Meeka was not present. If she and Joe ever split, his career would continue. But Meeka, without Joe, would probably not have a job on a major network. Maybe not her fault, but she comes across as dour and an opportunist. She seems bored with her job and it shows. And what a good many people can sense is how shallow and hypocritical her KYV schtick (and without Joe she would not have this) really is. So. It is not that I "hate" Meeka, even though I rant about her continuously. I just can't respect her; which, if it was anyone else, would be a job killer. But not if you are married to The Star. But as a woman I need to say ... I guess we do what we must if something is that important to us. I must admit she helps make the MJ discussion threads as fun (and smart) as they are.

Nine whole hours yay!! apparently Joe Mika and Willie are also doing parallel coverage at the same time, on Peacock. I honestly don't get this, why not give them an extra couple of hours on MSNBC instead, like 5 a.m. to 10 a.m. or something? They did this parallel online coverage thing on election day and I tried to be super loyal to everyone by watching both at the same time, but it was impossible!! And they said the thing on Peacock was a "special" but it was the same, they didnt' go into any studio or location or put Joe and Mika back together again or anything, it was basically like an ordinary day in the boring boxes, and Mika wasn't even there most of the time, it was mostly Joe, and there was no laughter or energy like there was with Rachel & Joy & Nicolle (and Michael Steele!!). Also Willie was at the board doing "electoral math" but it kinda looked like a person trying to speak a foreign language by having someone whisper into their ear what to say, soooo in the end I had to switch back to Kornacki who actually lives and breathes that stuff.... I would be legit excited about this if I believed the Peacock inauguration special was actually going to be a real special like in the old days, but I don't think it will be... But!!! one potentially exciting thing about the Peacock thing is they are giving some time to Ayman and Katy Tur together at 1 p.m. -- I remember them literally in the middle of the night doing election coverage with Ali Velshi - the three of them had this great chemistry and just went off on random, interesting tangents about health care and Dominos Pizza, and it was like a real unscripted conversation, and it was *sooo good*.

Actually reading the transcripts, versus just hearing him drone on and on everyday ("in one ear and out the other") is something. He's gone off the deep end with his rages. What value does he add?

Let's ask Mika, cowering in her little screen. I like the Newsbusters transcripts. It makes it easier to remember what he is saying. Joe is becoming very repetitive with his talking points. I also find him to struggle when discussing any economic issues with Steve Rattner. The show used to do a simulcast with CNBC at 8:30 a.m. Erin Burnett & Mark Haines would provide useful information for viewers & Joe stayed relatively quiet during the segments. I prefer watching CNBC in the morning now since the hosts are professional & know how to conduct interviews with politicians & business leaders better than Mika & Joe. Morning Joe was a much better to show to watch when everyone was in a studio together & the show allowed guests to have a differing opinion than Joe. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/87160-the-hosts-thread-joe-and-mika-know-their-value/page/48/#findComment-6643297

Glad to have some company over there, Oakville. Joe Kernan has been my crush for over 20 years! Often the same guest will show up on both shows, either the same day or during the same week and the difference in the interviews is striking. SO much more information from the CNBC Q and A's...and done in such a relaxed, non confrontational way. (I still miss Mark Haines.☹️) 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/87160-the-hosts-thread-joe-and-mika-know-their-value/page/48/#findComment-6643503

(I still miss Mark Haines.☹️) I used to watch CNBC on a regular basis in the 1990's in the morning. It was a great show but I got frustrated during the internet boom. They were hyping stocks like Pets.com which had no real value. Mark Haines was great & Erin Burnett was professional . I liked the "old timers" guests like Art Cashin who would come on & discuss investing fundamentals. Kernan likes to call himself "boomer" & loves to joke around with the millenials , Andrew Ross Sorkin & Becky Quick. They are polite with their guests & ask good questions. It's much more informative than Morning Joe. Sorkin is very intelligent. Morning Joe should try and get back Brian Sullivan who used to be a regular contributor to Morning Joe from 2017-2019. He has a good sense of humor & did a great job explaining he Texas power failure situation. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/87160-the-hosts-thread-joe-and-mika-know-their-value/page/48/#findComment-6644009

Yeah, got my fill of Tyco, Enron and Worldcom...never interested in those or any tech at that time. Remember the echoing "Qualcomm" whenever it was mentioned? Maria B. on the floor was exciting. Joe was snarky before snarky was invented! Erin sure made a big pivot going to CNN. I've never watched her there. Art is great. Did you read his New Year's poem? Clever. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/87160-the-hosts-thread-joe-and-mika-know-their-value/page/48/#findComment-6645428

plumbago blues March 6, 2021 Share March 6, 2021 (edited) Wow. Joe dropping the F bomb. Good thing Mika wasn't there. Joe looks much different to me in the wider angle shot vs. the tight shot on MJ. His face is so much fuller and he's getting a bit of a neck waddle...nothing bad or unusual as we're all aging, but seeing just his big face everyday doesn't show the real him. I am so over him talking about Trump all the time...even Maher questioned his constant focus on it. Boring, Joe. And how incredibly ironic is it that Joe went on Maher's show live and in person on the same day the old MJ set in NY "opened" back up? Wouldn't you think the Scarbro's would drop in on their own show first?

neona March 6, 2021 Share March 6, 2021 Tbh I don't understand why LA is possible when NY or DC isn't, not even for the election... I liked this clip, he actually seems like a much calmer and friendlier person when interacting face-to-face with another human... which makes the current Tucker-Carlson-monologue setup even more incomprehensible gaaaaah 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/87160-the-hosts-thread-joe-and-mika-know-their-value/page/48/#findComment-6645766

I think Joe is reluctant to return to NYC for the show because he may have to pay taxes to NYC & NYS for every show that he hosts from Rockfeller Center now that he is a resident of Florida. I am glad that Maher asked Joe about his focus on Trump. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/87160-the-hosts-thread-joe-and-mika-know-their-value/page/48/#findComment-6645783

Mika has the name of the plastic surgeon who looks after things like that. I mean, she confessed that that was what she had had done when they went to Florida and crashed Dump's New Year's Eve party and he twittered to the world that Mika's face was bleeding. You may have heard a little something about that kerfuffle on about a zillion telecasts. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/87160-the-hosts-thread-joe-and-mika-know-their-value/page/48/#findComment-6646310
