You interview big celebrities weekly on your show. Share 2 of your most memorable interviews, one that was unexpectedly awesome and the other that was somewhat awkward.

Gosh, unexpectedly awesome? Our show is daily now and I've interviewed so many people. Interviewing via zoom has opened up so many opportunities to interview celebrities that I never thought we would get this quickly. I always invite them and get them but I never thought it would be so quickly.

So interviewing Oprah was, you know, amazing! She just makes you feel so good. But that was expected. I knew Oprah was going to be awesome. I knew Dolly Parton would be awesome and she was. Jamie Lee Curtis was so much fun. Her energy was incredible. Of course we interviewed the people from Chicago Fire, Chicago Med, and Chicago PD. They're all great. Dan Ackroyd was great the first time we interviewed him.
