My toughest interview was with Joe Piscopo. He was a great guy & we really clicked. We were both clowning around... and they both had to be serious when we talked about the sub disaster. It didn't come naturally to either of us.

This makes me think of a scene from ‘The Simpsons’

When all the media trucks are rolling into town.

Homer: WOOHOO The circus!!

Lisa: A MEDIA circus.

Homer: WOOHOO I don’t know the difference!

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, I am unbelievably glad you weren’t on the sub when it failrc. In all likelihood, you and Denise would’ve been on it and,well….. we don’t need to think about that. You are SO much more than funny! 💛 Kind, genuine, honest, friendly, loving, encouraging, positive, generous, intelligent, friendly and enthusiastic!

I enjoyed watching you on ABC nightly news and if I remember correctly, Dateline ! Denise looked great and you were honest and not funny at all. Mission accomplished 😘
