As of November 17, 2025, longtime Morning Joe co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are celebrating their nearly 20-year partnership, 8 of them as a married couple, and remain unfazed by MSNBC's recent rebrand to MS NOW.
The couple's unique bond and compatibility have been crucial in helping them navigate the network shift. Brzezinski, 58, and Scarborough, 62, have found a groove that works for them, with Brzezinski keeping Scarborough on schedule and Scarborough providing a counterbalance to Brzezinski's cable news obsession.
Despite the changes at their network, the core team of correspondents and crew that have been with Morning Joe for years remain the driving force behind the show's continued success. Scarborough and Brzezinski credit this tight-knit group as the reason the program has been able to adapt to various challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic.
As the duo looks ahead, they are excited to continue working with their longtime colleagues, such as Willie Geist, Mike Barnacle, and Jonathan Lemire, to tell stories and build a community with their viewers. Scarborough is also expanding his reach through a new daily newsletter, The Tea Spilled By Morning Joe, which he hopes will allow him to connect with the audience in new ways.
