Dylan Dreyer was caught off guard during the May 22 instalment of the Today Show when guest musician Jack Antonoff from the rock band Bleachers jokingly questioned her hosting skills.
Following the meteorologist's weather report, Jack made a surprising comment about the show. "I like the weather stuff.I like when you mess up and it goes viral, you didn't do it," he said to Dylan.
"I did not mess up, I did not want that to go viral," replied Dylan. "She's a pro," added Dylan's co-star, Laura Jarrett.

Jack then asked Craig Melvin whether he had experienced many live on-air moments that later went viral on social media. "I have many, we should probably go to the weather," replied Craig, as he attempted to avoid the question.
Dylan, who typically presents the Third Hour of Today, stepped in for Carson Daly for the Second Hour of the show. She had to deliver the Pop Start roundup during the episode. "I'm going to talk for a few seconds so you can catch your breath and get ready for Pop Start," teased Craig. "She's been doing stretches," added Laura.

Aside from her regular role as a NBC anchor, Dylan hosts her own podcast, The Parent Chat with Dylan Dreyer, in conjunction with Today. The description for Dylan's podcast reads: "Hey Glass Half Full fans! As a bonus for you, we’re sharing the trailer for The Parent Chat with Dylan Dreyer – an all-new podcast series from TODAY.

But Dylan Dreyer is also a mom of 3 boys in New York City, trying to figure out the big stuff: how to raise kind, confident, resilient kids and keep her sanity along the way. And like every parent, sometimes she needs…HELP! On The Parent Chat, Dylan calls in reinforcements – from parenting experts with big advice to fellow working moms that can help all parents feel less alone. Because parenting doesn't come with a manual, but it can come with a group chat."
Meanwhile, Craig joined as a regular host on the Today Show following Hoda Kotb's departure in January 2025. He had been part of the team for years, but his permanent position was a huge move that elevated his career.
