Al usually stars on the radio program alongside his Today colleagues Dylan Dreyer and Sheinelle Jones.
But on March 21, the women were missing so Al chatted to their assistants.
Al said in a teaser clip: “What could possibly be better on ‘Off the Rails when Dylan and Sheinelle are not here than to have Dylan and Sheinelle’s assistant Jackie, my assistant Brianna, spilling the tea and sweeping some dirt around.”
He then proudly proclaimed: “It’s fantastic.”
Al urged listeners to check out the latest installment of “Off The Rails,” which can be streamed online at Sirius XM.
Encouraging fans to tune in, he joked that the episode is “insane.”
Off The Rails first aired in September 2021 and Al, Dylan, and Sheinelle often discuss Today segments, their families, and several other topics.
Viewers took to Instagram to say that they wished Dylan and Sheinelle took part in the segment alongside their assistants.
Meanwhile, other fans described the podcast as “very entertaining” and “fun to listen to.”
Al is known for entertaining viewers and listeners on the Today show and the Off the Rails podcast.
Last month, he joked that his radio show had truly “gone off the rails.”
In a preview clip, he introduced himself and Brianna, explaining that she was covering for Sheinelle.
He then encouraged listeners to download the SiriusXM, admitting that the show got “wild.”
Al said: “Because today, it truly goes off the rails.”
‘OFF THE RAILS’
The daytime television icon continued that the magic word of the day for the show was “leach,” and viewers had to watch to see why that was.
Al captioned the preview clip: “Oh yeah… we go pretty off the rails on this one…”
Hilariously, the clip also included a video of a train traveling along the tracks in the background.
The veteran anchor returned to presenting duties at the start of this year but sparked concern among fans when he revealed that he will be having a knee replacement soon.
Al was hospitalized in November 2022 after blood clots were discovered in his legs and lungs.
Due to his health issues, Al was absent from the morning show for two months.
It meant he was forced to miss festive events such as The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade and the lighting of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree.
Al opened up about his health battles on the show and revealed that he underwent a grueling seven-hour surgery.
