The Tuesday, June 17 edition of The Today Show presents a morning of sharp tonal shifts, bouncing from the excitement of Major League Baseball to a somber remembrance of a national tragedy. The broadcast begins at 7:00 AM ET on NBC, opening with a live appearance from members of the New York Yankees on the Plaza.
The 7-9 AM block also contains a segment dedicated to the 10-year remembrance of the Charleston church shooting, a moment of reflection amid the usual morning show energy. On the culinary front, Chef Buddha Lo will be featured, while Kerry Condon is slated for a “Catching Up With…” segment. Crossing over both morning blocks, Adrianna Brach will present the Shop TODAY Beauty Awards, highlighting top products for the season.
The 9-10 AM hour continues the food theme, with Phil Rosenthal stopping by to talk about the enduring appeal of his travel and food series, Somebody Feed Phil. Chef Aliya LeeKong will also be in the kitchen for a “TODAY Food” segment, preparing a signature dish. The varied programming—from sports stars and chefs to a serious news commemoration—is structured to hold a wide audience, moving briskly between very different topics. It is a clear example of the show’s broad-reaching approach to morning television, aiming to provide something for everyone.
