While many TV viewers know Roker from his years spent forecasting weather for “Today” and other venues, fewer know that he has led a small TV-production company for more than two decades. The shop, Al Roker Entertainment, will this week launch three new “shows” that he will transmit via Meerkat, the mobile app that allows users to watch live streaming video. Each of the programs will last five to fifteen minutes, and Roker freely admits he’s experimenting, not necessarily banking on outsize success on his first few attempts.
