Advertise on Glass Half Full with Craig Melvin

What’s the moment that changed everything? Who was the one person who believed in you when no one else did?

In this series, Emmy Award-winning journalist and Today Show anchor Craig Melvin sits down with some of the biggest names in sports, entertainment, and leadership for honest, powerful conversations about the pivotal moments that shaped their lives.

From stories of resilience and breakthrough to reflections on faith, fatherhood, and the people who paved the way, the series offers a refreshing look at the human side of success—and the relationships that make it possible.

Each episode is a 35-45-minute conversational deep dive—sometimes recorded remotely, sometimes in person—with Craig often broadcasting from the cozy bar in his basement, whiskey in hand. It's thoughtful, inspiring, and always real.
Because behind every success story is someone who made a difference.
