Meet the Press | iHeart
NBC News’ Meet the Press is the longest-running television show in history. If it’s Sunday, it’s Meet the Press with Kristen Welker. Meet the Press NOW airs weekdays at 4PM ET on NBC News NOW.
www.iheart.comHere’s the latest I can share based on current public reporting:
- Kristen Welker remains the host of Meet the Press. She took over as moderator in September 2023, succeeding Chuck Todd, and has continued in that role into 2025 and 2026, including during her maternity-related leave in 2024 when Peter Alexander filled in temporarily.[1][3]
- In 2025–2026, Meet the Press continued its traditional Sunday airings with Welker as the flagship moderator, and NBC’s Meet the Press NOW airs on weekdays separately from the Sunday program.[3][4][1]
- There have been ongoing iterations and related NBC News coverage around the show, including the companion podcast and NBC News NOW segments that accompany Meet the Press programming.[6][8][3]
If you want, I can pull the very latest headlines from specific outlets (e.g., NBC News, Variety, or TheWrap) or point you to the most recent Meet the Press episodes and interview topics. Would you like me to fetch the newest headlines or confirm Welker’s current schedule and upcoming guests?
