All MSNBC Lineup Changes & Shakeup After Joy Reid's Exit
has undergone major lineup changes after Rebecca Kutler officially assumed the position of the network president earlier this month. This includes the cancellation of Joy Reid's 7 p.m. show The ReidOut and her departure from the network, a new trio as co-hosts for The Weekend, and the current co-hosts of the aforementioned shows moving to weekdays at 7:00 p.m.
Kutler unveiled the changes in the lineup to the MSNBC staff through a memo on Monday, February 24. 'I had hoped to share this with all of you directly and understand the frustration that you first learned about this over the weekend and not from me,' she explained, acknowledging the concerns of the network employees. Here is the list of new changes at MSNBC:
MSNBC canceled Joy Reid's The ReidOut, with the final episode airing on Monday. Kutler's memo also confirmed that Reid was leaving the network.
Alex Wagner Tonight, which aired on the network at 9:00 p.m. on Tuesdays-Fridays, also came to an end. However, Wagner will remain with the network as a political contributor.
Alicia Menendez, Michael Steele, and Symone Sanders Townsend, the current co-hosts of The Weekend, will now serve as the presenters of a new ensemble news program on weekdays at 7 p.m. The Monday edition of this program will be two hours long.
The live programming on the weekends will have an additional two hours. The new trio of co-hosts of The Weekend will include MSNBC host and The Washington Post contributor Jonathan Capehart. Further, MSNBC host Ayman Mohyeldin will be one of the anchors of a new evening edition of the program.
Jen Psaki will now host the 9:00 pm show from Tuesdays to Fridays.
The Rachel Maddow Show will once again air at the 9:00 pm slot on Mondays.
Ana Cabrera Reports will be expanded for an hour and will now air from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Moreover, Chris Jansing Reports will now air from 12:00 pm to 2 pm and Katy Tur Reports from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
Ali Velshi's program will now be three hours long on the weekends.
MSNBC will seek to consolidate its broadcasting in New York and Washington, D.C. with the network setting up a standalone Washington bureau. It also closed the curtains on shows produced in Miami, including José Díaz-Balart Reports and The Katie Phang Show. However, Díaz-Balart will continue to serve as an NBC anchor, while Phang will now work as a legal correspondent for MSNBC.
Kutler announced that all these changes will be implemented from late April 2025.

Singer-Songwriter Steps on AGT Stage—Not Prepared for America's Response
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A singer-songwriter has exploded in popularity overnight after acing an audition on the competition show America's Got Talent (AGT). Recording artist Mama Duke, 37, from Austin Texas, has been "making music and writing jingles for as far back as I remember," including making beats on pencil and paper aged 14, and performing her creations for her classmates. On June 17, she found herself on the stage of AGT, performing an original track for Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Sofía Vergara, and Mel B — and has become an instant viral hit. She called the AGT performance the "wildest mix of manifestation, hustle, and timing," having been performing and building her brand with the belief that "if I kept showing up as me, the right doors were bound to appear in front of me. "The moment the first audition opportunity landed in my lap, I knew that something must be brewing. Something as in some force or magic that was starting to surface. I could feel it." With plenty of songs under her belt, Duke decided on Feels So Good To Be You for her audition because she, like many who have since heard it, "knew I was sitting on a little bop." Her audition received four yeses and a standing ovation from both the judges and the thousands in the audience, with former Spice Girl Mel B declaring it was "already a hit." And commenters reacting to the clip on the America's Got Talent YouTube channel, viewed more than 580,000 times, agreed.

THIS IS A PERFORMANCE," one wrote, as another asked "how on earth is this not a golden buzzer moment?" referencing the shortcut judges can use to put contestants through to the next round regardless of other judges' verdicts. "If radio stations start playing this, it will become an instant hit. Very fresh, very catchy, amazing voice," one said, as another agreed Duke is the "complete package." Duke told Newsweek it "feels like I won the lottery," and that overnight it appears she received "a platform to talk about my ideas and dreams without sounding crazy. That's what things like this do for artists like me. Gives us leverage to push for the things we've always known we deserve." She revealed that musician and record producer Ester Dean, who has written hits for the likes of Rihanna and Beyoncé, "slid into my DMs to congratulate me," which has been incredible as Duke has "looked up to her pen game for a while." Mama Duke performs her original track Feels So Good To Be You, as judge Sofía Vergara gets into the music.

America's Got Talent/ NBC Ten days after her audition, Feels So Good To Be You has almost 700,000 streams—ten times the number of her second biggest song. While Duke brought the house down with her track, to the point many are predicting superstardom for her career, she admits that although she appeared "confident and present and very much settled into myself," she almost doesn't remember the experience. "It's the weirdest thing! It's a feeling that a lot of people won't be able to understand unless you're standing on that stage in front of 4,000 people—and four of those people being the most important folks you'll ever audition for in my life." "You don't know nerves like these nerves," she said, "but somehow I found my confidence on stage and settled in." "I'll be chasing that high for the rest of my life, that's for sure." AGT airs weekly on Tuesdays, and sees the contestants who made it through the auditions battle it out in live shows to stay in the competition, with the winner receiving a $1 million prize.

Parents Are Sharing The Most Embarrassing Things Their Kids Have Ever Said Or Done, And Honestly I'm Laughing My Butt Off
Recently, Reddit user FarmhouseRules posted to the popular ask subreddit to ask people, "What's the most embarrassing thing your kids have ever said or done?" She shared her own story first, writing, "Once I was shopping at the grocery with my 5-year-old son in the cart. As we were going down the aisle we passed a woman going the other way. Right after we passed her, my son said, 'Mom that's the ugliest man I've ever seen.' I was mortified." NBC Other people shared some pretty legendarily embarrassing stories, too, and I was honestly cackling. Here are some of the absolute best: 1."I was at checkout in K-Mart with my then 5-year-old daughter. I was buying her purple marshmallow Peeps. She told the cashier that purple was her favorite color. I said she had a new favorite color every week. This embarrassed my daughter, who said loudly, 'Mom, you have a new favorite boyfriend every week!'" "I was mortified and tried to assure everyone in line that I'd been with my boyfriend for three years." —u/tlk2mch 2."'MY MOM LOVES COCK PORN.' (He meant popcorn.)" ABC —u/milkandsalsa 3."My wife, my son, and I were at Disneyland. My son was 3 at this point. He had finished potty training just a few weeks prior to this. During potty training, we would use positive reinforcement, elling him that he was doing a good job, etc. etc. One of the things I told him was that he was pooping Iike a man now." "So anyway, my wife and I both had to poop at the same time. And we both really had to go. There was no waiting happening here. We couldn't leave my son alone, so I took him with me. I picked the big stall so we would both have some room. So I started to do my business, and my son loudly says, 'Ewww Daddy, that's a man poop daddy. That's a man poop.' I'm trying to get him to be quiet, but he just keeps going: 'Good job on the poop, Daddy. But Daddy, it smells. That sure is a man poop, Daddy.' Everyone in the bathroom was snickering, and I was sitting there mortified. It's hilarious now, but not so much at the time." —u/rodimus147 4."My 2-year-old son and I were in line at Kohl's and the woman behind me had vitiligo (a condition that causes the pigment in your skin to discolor, completely resulting in very blotchy skin). My son looked at her and gasped and said, 'Oh wow, I LOVE your polka dots!'" "Fortunately, she laughed and was so kind and said, 'Why THANK YOU!' She was so gracious and what could have been embarrassing became such a sweet moment. Hilarious though." —u/Donut_Interesting 5."We were at the zoo when my son was probably 5 or 6. He had run ahead to look at the zebras. He turned around and screamed, 'Mom, you won't believe how big this zebra's dick is!' I deeply considered walking past him with no acknowledgment." —u/raven_darkseid 6."Took my 3-year-old in to work with me on a Saturday when the office was closed. My coworker was there. I introduced him to my daughter. She recognized his name from me always complaining about him, looked him in the eye, and asked him, 'Are you the one who doesn't know what he is doing?'" "So embarrassing! He wouldn't talk to me for weeks." —u/CatsRock25 7."We were on a trail in the Smoky Mountains and a park ranger with an eye patch was talking to us about bears. Right when we finished the conversation and started walking away, my son said, 'Mommy, we just talked to a pirate!'" —u/sweetpea813 8."Not my kid, but it was said to me. I was riding the elevator up to the OB/GYN floor with a very pregnant woman and her about 3-year-old son. He looked at my belly and excitedly asked if I was going to have a baby, too. His mother was 14 shades of red with nowhere to hide! I told him no, I was just fat. He gave me a sad face and said, 'Well, next year.'" —u/PhoneboothLynn 9."When my oldest was about a year and a half old in the grocery store, he pointed to a baby and said 'ugly baby' clear as day and very loud." —u/Slag_Queen_Tsunade 10."My son told my daughter that her penis fell off and that's why he was a boy and she was a girl. She was upset for weeks." —u/Big-Kaleidoscope-192 11."When my son was little, we took him to mass with us. When the priest was consecrating the communion wafer, my son loudly and clearly said, 'Hey, I want one of those potato chips!'" Quim Llenas / Cover/Getty Images, Fox / Via —u/grannygogo 12."My son, bless his heart, waited until everyone had bowed their heads to pray but before the priest started the prayer, and in that moment of blessed silence, piped up 'I gotta poop!' as loud as he could." AMC —u/Imcbmc 13."I was waiting in the crowd for my number to be called at the deli counter with my 5-year-old. It was National Dairy Month, and the grocery store had a huge inflatable cow suspended from the ceiling above us. My daughter looked up and announced at the top of her lungs, 'Look, Mom, that cow has four penises!' The crowd roared." —u/VicePrincipalNero 14."My daughter announced to her whole class that girls get brains and boys get a penis. That was a whole parent/teacher conference." —u/SatanicWhoreofHell 15."I was the mortifying kid: in the middle of a Catholic mass, during one of the silent parts, I looked up at a man next to us. I looked back at my mom and loudly said, 'Mom, why does his forehead go back so far?'" HBO / Via "I'm sure I was a blast to raise. 💀" —u/Gold_Bug_4055 16."We were at my grandfather's funeral with my then 3-year-old son. We had told him that great-grandpa was really old and that's why he died. We met my grandparents' neighbor, who I knew growing up, and she is about 90. When she walked away, my son said, 'She's really nice. It's too bad she'll be dead soon.'" Disney Channel / Via —u/Historical-Stop5083 17."When my son was 3, we lived in a pretty rough neighborhood. His favorite thing was just riding his tricycle up and down the sidewalk, completely safe. One day I heard him greeting people in the manner that people greeted him when they walked by. He said, 'Hey, motherfucker!'" Warner Bros. —u/miseeker 18."Around Thanksgiving, we walked past a very old woman and the 5-year-old stopped to ask her about conditions on the Mayflower." NBC —u/Samiru27 19."This is about me at 5 years old in 1975. My mom used to tell this story. My dad at that time liked to listen to Deanna Durbin records on the living room stereo. Her picture was on the fronts of the albums, and he liked to tell me he was listening to his 'girlfriend' singing." "My mom took me shopping at a department store. We were in the elevator when a lady came in. I looked at her and said, 'You look just like my dad's girlfriend!' My mom said she was really embarrassed. The lady gave her a funny look." —u/Alman54 20."My kid was 5-ish and had started calling hot dogs weiners. At the grocery store, she said, very loudly, 'Mommy likes wieners!'" BBC —u/tallant13 21."Our oldest was about 3, my wife was pregnant with our second, and we were at dinner with friends who had a toddler in a high chair. Said toddler had food everywhere!" "My child looked at me and asked if our baby was going to be like that baby because 'this one makes me gag.' There is no way out of that awkwardness!" —u/st_nick5 22."About 20 years ago when our son was 2, we were having a small dinner party with friends at our home, and he went into our bedroom closet and found one of my wife's (adult) toys. He came running into the living room and started banging it against the coffee table." NBC / Via —u/Proper_Actuary8980 23."My kid, at 4, could burp like a truck driver. Sitting in a restaurant, she let out this massive burp, dove under the table to hide, and 25 strangers turned around to stare at me with mild disgust." Bon Appétit —u/Witty_Jello_8470 finally, "My lovely 3-year-old likes to yell 'HELP ME!!!' at the top of her lungs when she doesn't get her way, and she tends to not get her way and yell that in grocery stores and other public places." —u/CrockyCroc Okay, IDK about you, but I'm laughing my ass off at some of these.
