\nIn this heartfelt interview, Melvin and Guthrie sat down together to discuss their decades-long friendship, how Guthrie derailed Melvin\u2019s 2010 date with his future wife, their reactions to Hoda Kotb\u2019s resignation, Taylor Swift and more.<\/p>\n

\nRead the full interview here<\/a>. Video link here<\/a>. Notable quotes are below.<\/p>\n

How Savannah cut short Craig\u2019s date with future wife Lindsay Czarniak<\/b>: \u201cWhen [Lindsay and I] were dating, I remember vividly one time we went out to dinner,\u201d Melvin explains, adding that their nightcap had to be cut short due to Czarniak\u2019s appearance on The Daily Rundown<\/i>. \u201cI was like, ‘The show with Chuck [Todd] and Savannah?’ I [thought], ‘Screw Chuck and Savannah [for] taking you away early.\u2019 I remember the first time that I saw her on the show. She was wearing this yellow dress. Yellow is her favorite color. I just wanted to make sure she wasn’t trying to blow me off, so I woke up the next morning to actually watch, and there she was. So, it’s kind of full-circle.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cLindsay and my husband, Mike [Feldman], have all known each other for a thousand years. I’ve known Lindsay for longer [than Craig],\u201d says Guthrie. \u201cI thought she was amazing. We love her. And then I’m like, ‘Oh, my gosh, they’re dating.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Craig and Savannah on their longtime friendship<\/b>: Melvin and Guthrie first became acquainted around 2010 while both were living and working in Washington, D.C. Melvin was a weekend anchor for the local NBC TV news affiliate\u2014\u201cI immediately was like: That guy is good. He’s different. He’s an original,\u201d Guthrie recalls.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe’ve become legit friends. We’ve got kids that have hung out together, and we’ve hung out together, so we don’t have to fake it,\u201d Melvin says. \u201cThe audience can tell when the chemistry is manufactured, and we haven’t had to manufacture anything, which makes it even easier. I’m really excited to be on this adventure with my sister.\u201d<\/p>\n

Savannah on replacing Ann Curry as lead co-anchor in 2012<\/b>: \u201cI came at a time of a lot of controversy for the show, and it wasn\u2019t, I don’t think, a happy occasion, really\u2014for anyone, including me,\u201d Guthrie recalls. \u201cI was as terrified as I could possibly be because the bosses at the time had made a decision, and I quite literally was the last to know, and I was so afraid, and I was pretty sure that I wouldn’t last.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nAt the time, Guthrie had been the anchor of the 9 a.m. hour on TODAY<\/i>, as well as the show’s chief legal correspondent. \u201cAll my dreams had already come true,\u201d she says. \u201cIt didn’t need to get any better than that. When I was offered the job, I was in tears. And it wasn’t because I didn’t dream of this job like everyone else does. It was because I was sure that it wouldn’t last and that I’d be thrown by the wayside within a few weeks or months\u2026I’m so happy that I survived and I’m still here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Craig and Savannah on parenting<\/b>: \u201cOur kids are essentially the same age,\u201d says Melvin. \u201cSo when we bring our kids together, the boys tend to hang out, and the girls [do so], even though there’s an age difference.\u201d Guthrie and Melvin each started families of their own around the same time, and discussion of juggling their jobs and parenting is, says Melvin, \u201c80 percent of our conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe talk probably more about that stuff than we do about work,\u201d Guthrie adds. \u201cWe talk about our kids. We show each other pictures. He just got a puppy last year. We just got a puppy a month ago. We talk about the joys and pratfalls of puppy ownership.\u201d (\u201cPratfalls, that’s good,\u201d Melvin chimes in.)<\/p>\n

Why Craig missed Taylor Swift\u2019s concert<\/b>: In October, the families met up in Miami for dinner and a Taylor Swift concert, along with Kotb and her daughters. Melvin, however, ended up skipping the singer\u2019s iconic Eras Tour for dad duty. \u201cI didn’t go to the concert. I was open to it. My 10-year-old son was like, ‘Under no circumstances am I going to a Taylor Swift concert.\u2019\u201d (Father and son ended up playing laser tag.)<\/p>\n
