Hoda is out serving jury duty so Kathie's mom (Joanie) stepped in as co-host. Regis Philbin even stopped by to say hello!
Today's Talk with Kathie and her mom Joanie Epstein
- Kathie hijacked Hoda's "iHoda Playlist" with her own version "iKathie Lee's Playlist". Kathie's song choice was Barbra Streisand's "Somewhere"... (Which playlist do you prefer?) I am pretty sure the answer is a unanimous, "iHoda"!!!
- Is it okay to discuss your children's love life? (In books or interviews) What do you think? Here is what Hoda said, "It is not okay. But here is my question...why would any parent want to talk about their kids sex lives?"
Regis Philbin stopped by the studio to visit his good friend and former co-host, Kathie Lee. Regis has a new book out called, "How I Got This Way". Buy Regis' Book Here
-Throughout the show Regis would ask where Hoda was, jokingly calling her Koda! Here is what he said, "Where is Koda? Shouldn't she be here to meet me?"
Wishing Joanie a very Happy 82nd Birthday tomorrow!
- The "Phone Stack" Game. When out to dinner with friends have everyone put their phones face down in the center of the table. The first person to pick up their phone during dinner will also have to pick up the check! Genius!
KLG and Hoda played this game during the show, see what happened below!
-As you saw in the video above, Hoda failed miserably. Don't worry girl. I would have too!!! My phone is attached to my hip. Are you as attached to your phones as Ms.Hoda and I ?
- Jason Wu is teaming up with Target and is putting out a fabulous line of dresses. They can be found online at Target from Feb.5 - March 6 and in varying Target stores. The dresses are priced very reasonably from $19.99 - $59.99. Click Here for more info!
- A dear friend reminds Hoda to "Be Here Now". Meaning, take time to enjoy what is happening now and stop living in the future.
-On tomorrow's show Hoda will be out serving her jury duty so filling in will be Kathie's mom, Joanie Epstein and Regis Philbin!
- If you've seen the videos on "Sh*t Girls Say", you will love this clip of "Sh*t People Never Say"...

Etiquette 101 with Amy Astly & Harriette Cole: Thank you notes!
- Close the circle! If you receive a gift, give a thank you note.
- A handwritten note is best. If e-mail is all you can do, that is okay.
-If you do not have the best handwriting, type your note on the computer.
-If you open a gift in person a "Thank You" in person is okay. Although...
- Thank you notes are always lovely to receive.
Golden Rule- Send a hand written note!

If you are one of those women who has a shoe size that you hate to reveal (like Hoda), shoe makers are now "vanity sizing" their shoes! If you happen to be a size 10 (cough* Hoda *cough) you can now ask for a size 9.5! It may not be a big deal to many but as Hoda says:"It feels so good!" (in reference to being able to ask for a 9.5) Love Hoda's attitude! Always positive!
