How do I properly rename some shows like Tucker Carlson tonight if they are recorded from DVR with weird formats?

I'm having a ton of trouble with this

I use playonTV to record DVR of some tv shows I watch and then I try to watch them via plex

But Tucker carlson tonight keeps recording with weird names with the day of the week rather than date. For example; "Tucker Carlson Tonight - Friday, November 10"

How can I use filebot to translate this to a proper date?

Do you have screenshots so we can see your problem? And example file names so we can try to do what you're doing?

If you prefer going the pre-processing route, then there's an example somewhat similar to your case here:

:idea: You'll probably need to modify it for your exact use case though.
