Maddow, who hosted The Rachel Maddow Show from home Monday due to COVID exposure, confirmed she'll be going on a hiatus for a "few weeks" after Friday's show. "There’s all the stuff that I have been working on that I want to work some more on," she said. "So, as you can tell, I’m nervous about all of this, it’s a change in my life. But it’s all for the good. I will be here this week, through Thursday of this week, and then the hiatus means and I’m just going to be off for a few weeks. Off from doing the show. I’m not really going anywhere. I’ll be back for the State of the Union and for other big news events in the meantime. I will also be back doing the show again before you’ll even miss me. I’ll be back in April."
