This is the same thing TWC has done for a long time with their new hires; they do just the Weekly Planner and maybe the :50 segment during the weekday afternoon for their first on-air duty. In recent memory, they did this with Kevin Robinson, Betty Davis, and Samantha Mohr. They also did the same thing with Dave Schwartz when he returned from cancer treatment, and they did it with Betty Davis the first day she came back from maternity leave.
