And Friday was no different, as their latest debate saw their co-stars weigh in to give their opinion too, as they discussed the etiquette of texting.
Hoda made it clear that she preferred to call her friends rather than messaging on her phone, especially when it came to adding the abbreviation "Lol" - meaning laugh out loud.

"You are old school you love to talk on the phone," Jenna told her co-star. "I like to hear your voice. I can read what you're writing, 'Haha', 'LOL', I'm not laughing out loud. When's the last time you were laughing?" she asked Jenna.
Thinking very differently about the topic in hand, Jenna admitted: "I'm usually laughing out loud. I use my LOL very carefully," she said.

Sheinelle Jones wrote: "Oh I’m so guilty! I’m going to change starting now ! Lol." Savannah Guthrie also joined in, writing: "LOL".
Fans had their say too, with one writing: "Yes Hoda, phone calls always," while another wrote: "I agree with Hoda. Hate text unless it's to say running late. A voice on the phone is so much more personal." A third added: "I'd rather text, I can do things at the same time then," while a fourth agreed: "Texting is a lifeline when you are at work and can't use your phone."
