He doesn't even do a handoff at the end of his show. Rachel taped a handoff to use for her replay leading into First Look.

They’ve been talking to a lot of experts so I think he’s the person picked for that part. I haven’t been paying too much attention but I have MSNBC on pretty much all the time in the afternoons but every time I pay attention to what he says the subject is the pandemic.

I like him at 11:00 PM okay, but it is annoying to me that when they have something "big" happening, he seems to always take the lead, even with Rachel. Poor guy. Just a rolling stone.

Honesty, Tur is breath of fresh air. If she needs a partner, it shouldn't be a retread.
