MSNBC’s Thomas Roberts to start waking up “Way Too Early” beginning on January 13

Congratulations to MSNBC’s Thomas Roberts who today was named host of Way Too Early and a regular contributor to Morning Joe.

Thomas had been hosting MSNBC Live each weekday and it was perfect for West Coast fans of his since the 11 am show aired at 8 am here in LA.

Way Too Early is indeed way too early airing at 5:30 am in the East and 2:30 am on the West Coast!

It’s the lead-in to Morning Joe.

But sometimes I get insomnia so will catch Thomas plenty or on MSNBC.com.

Thomas said in a statement that he ‘can’t wait to get started.’

‘This is a very exciting opportunity and right in line with my career goals and aspirations,’ he said.
