On the Today 3rd Hour installment on March 27, Al, Craig, and Dylan Dreyer sat down with Arianna Davis.

Arianna explained that Starbucks had a new scheme recommending drinks based on a person’s zodiac sign until April 20.

She then began handing out drinks to the hosts, and described Craig, 43, as a “reliable, dependable, focused Taurus,” and gave him an iced matcha latte.

Joking about the animal sign of the Taurus, 68-year-old Al shot out: “Well he is full of bull!”

Unfortunately, Craig didn’t seem too pleased with his green drink, and confirmed that he wasn’t a matcha fan.

Al then asked what Dylan’s zodiac drink was, to which Arianna responded that she, Al, and 41-year-old Dylan were all Leos.

She continued: “Apparently, because we are warm and captivating, we are strawberry frappuccino crème.”

Craig was next to fit in a boisterous joke, and exclaimed: “Did you just describe Dylan as warm?!”

Dylan gestured at the camera, and said: “America thinks I’m warm! Would you stop?”

HOT TEA

Starbucks drinks aside, Al promised that another beverage would be spilled in the latest episode of the podcast Off The Rails.

Al usually stars on the radio program alongside his Today colleagues Dylan and Sheinelle Jones.

On March 21 his co-hosts were absent, so Al chatted with their assistants instead.

Al said in a teaser clip: “What could possibly be better on Off the Rails when Dylan and Sheinelle are not here than to have Dylan and Sheinelle’s assistant Jackie, my assistant Brianna, spilling the tea and sweeping some dirt around.”

He then proudly proclaimed: “It’s fantastic.”

Al urged listeners to check out the latest installment of “Off The Rails,” which can be streamed online at SiriusXM.

Encouraging fans to tune in, he joked that the episode is “insane.”

RADIO STAR

Off The Rails first aired in September 2021 and Al, Dylan, and Sheinelle often discuss Today segments, their families, and several other topics.

Viewers took to Instagram to say that they wished Dylan and Sheinelle took part in the segment alongside their assistants.

Meanwhile, other fans described the podcast as “very entertaining” and “fun to listen to.”

Last month, Al joked that his radio show had truly “gone off the rails.”

In a preview clip, he introduced himself and Brianna, explaining that she was covering for Sheinelle.

He then encouraged listeners to download the show, admitting that it got “wild.”

Al confirmed: “Because today, it truly goes off the rails.”
