'It looks like election headquarters back here with all these TV screens and everything,' he said, joking, 'I think I see some anchormen.'
'A lot of people are asking what behind he puzzleboard is like, so we'll give you a glimpse,' Maggie said.
Pat added, 'Well we can't show you a lot, because there are certain things that are highly classified.'
He then adds, 'Well show them my water stash,' as Maggie turned the camera on a stand with a small label on it that read, 'Pat's Water,' with five bottles of Fiji water.
'Look it says Pat's water right there, and I'm almost done with this one. They just gave me enough to last the rest of the season,' Pat said with a laugh.
After Pat fulfills his hosting duties, he will stay on board with the show for another three years as a consultant, according to Sony Pictures Television's executive vice president of game shows Suzanne Prete.
Ryan gushed about Vanna: 'Of course, being next to Vanna, she's a legend. She's an icon,' per E! News.
Adding: 'We spent a little shooting some promos for next season, and she's just so down to earth. She's exactly what you would expect.'

Ryan continued: 'It's just so exciting to think about being on that set. I've watched the show for so many decades. I'm a fan of the show, and the game is the star.'
On June 12, 2023, Pat announced he was leaving Wheel of Fortune after the 41st season of the show wrapped.
'Well the time has come. I've decided that our 41st season, which begins in September, will be my last,' Pat said.
'It's been a wonderful ride, and I'll have more to say in the coming months. Many thanks to you all,' he added.
