America’s favorite weather man hooks us up with his Friday Fives. Well…seven technically.
When Al isn’t hosting the Today Show, he’s hard at work producing television and multi-media content via his company Al Roker Entertainment, much of which has been seen on The Food Network. If you ever watched his traveling documentary show Roker on the Road when it was airing, you know that the guy knows his food, and likes to eat.
Make sure to follow Al on Twitter for a daily dose of weather maps and probably some jokes – and check out his Friday Fives (plus two) below.
