On Wednesday, Jenna and Hoda discussed their then-upcoming trip to Quebec City. After Hoda asked her colleague if she’s a heavy or light packer, Jenna gauged herself at about “medium.” From there, Hoda further pressed, “Okay, let me ask you this. We’re going to be there for three days. How many pairs of underwear do you pack?” Jenna brought the conversation right back around to the time she revealed she doesn’t wear underpants.

“Zero,” Jenna confirmed. While this seems the perfect setup and response, Hoda, after busting out into laughter, admitted, “I forgot! I actually forgot,” before continuing to explain, “I think you can tell a lot about a person when you ask them how many pairs of underwear do you pack for a three-day trip.”
One has zero pairs of underwear, the other has extra
Opposite that, Hoda shared that she would be packing four pairs of underwear – three for each day and one just in case. At this, Jenna wanted to know, “Just in case you have an accident? Just in case you have a little accident?” Recently, while working out with Love Squad CEO Ally Love, Hoda saved Jenna from a near-accident by advising her against a certain exercise while Jenna was waring a dress and, potentially, “zero” underwear again.
