This is a really random question, but what’s the national morning show which features people turning 100? Anyone know?

It used to be the Today show, I remember Willard the weather guy wish many a happy 100th when I was a kid.

I’m not sure that they still do it, though.

They still do it on _Today_ from time to time.  
It’s a really good shoe…

I should have applied to have my grandmother’s name read on the air, but it’s probably too late now. She’ll be 100 on December 17th.
