Tamron Hall’s new, nationally-syndicated talk show premieres September 9 at 3 p.m. on WSB-TV. Hall, a former host with MSNBC and the ‘Today’ show for several years, spoke with AJC reporter Rodney Ho earlier this year about why she decided to go the talk show route, the journey she took to receive the daytime TV nod, and the challenges and opportunities ahead for the solo talk show.

Plus, host Shane Harrison discusses things to do in and around Atlanta over the next 10 days including the Yellow Daisy Festival and the Atlanta Horror Film Festival.
