Some things are better left unsaid, but not by Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager!

The two are opening up about the risks taken when utilizing the locker rooms in employer-provided gyms, like accidentally getting caught without your clothes on by your esteemed colleagues.

In a clip from a recent episode of The Today Show uploaded to Instagram, Kotb explained that she looks around to ensure she's alone, before working to "get dressed as fast as [she] possibly can" to avoid someone she works with walking in on her in her birthday suit, utilizing a room with a protective curtain as often as possible.

Her paranoia got to her co-anchor, who said she didn’t realize that there was such a risk in using the network's gym. “I wasn’t aware I needed to be so worried about everything and pulling the curtain and hiding," she said, until Kotb let her in on a "shocking experience" where the mother of two had accidentally seen "a colleague in the buff."

"I realized I was actually probably harming some of our colleagues with all of this,” Bush Hager continued, gesturing to body as Hoda cracked up beside her. “And she shamed me!"

Just days later, she forgot to bring a towel into the shower with her. "I listened carefully because I had your voice in my head, ‘Don’t scar those people!’ So I listened, and I didn’t hear anybody, so I, wet feet, scampered, and there were three people in the room!"

The pair was inspired to open up about the mortifying incidents by a recent interview with Barry Keoghan, where the Saltburn actor opened up about enjoying dancing sans his clothes—that, however, happens in the privacy of his own home.

The television hosts, very politely, kept the identities of those scarred private, but it's certainly a risk you run when working out at work!
