behind the scenes intel.

Okay.

Now the only part from a troublemaker named Amy from Alabama.

Oh, I love that alliteration.

Amy from Alabama.

The subject line, the only part when Hoda seemed to really cry in the Savannah interview.

All hail troublemaker in chief, Amy.

Thank you.

I have been a silent watcher slash listener since the beginning, she writes.

She also thanks us for sharing the adorable Teddy Van Halen.

How could I not?

The guy is a ham.

He is such a ham.

Regarding Hoda's interview, I could not help but notice the only tears that felt real

and were definitely the most substantive ones, not just grunts and sniffles, came at the end of the interview when they discussed ellipses, dot, dot, dot, Savannah's return to the Today Show.

So clever troublemaker, Amy, tells us everything.

Poor Hoda did not do a good imitation of caring about Savannah and this whole nightmare situation with her mother.

Plus, I read co-host Craig

was stunned at not getting the interview.

That is the reporting.
