Laurie Metcalf has had a career that most actors could only dream of. She's back as Aunt Jackie for season 3 of ABC's hit show "The Conners", but she has also shared her award-winning talent in movies, Broadway & animation over the past 40 years. I was beyond honored to have this emotional, heart-to-heart conversation with Laurie. I hope you'll stick around for a surprise that brought us both to tears and to see what Aunt Jackie would say about why we MUST vote!

I have dreamt of interviewing Vanessa Williams since starting "A Spoonful of Paolo". Well, the day finally arrived and it was everything I could have wanted. She has an adorable new children's book and song called "Bubble Kisses" that would be a great gift for any kid you know. I absolutely loved chatting with her about her incredible voice, what Wilhelmina Slater would be doing in quarantine and lots more. My favorite moment though is when she SINGS TO ME!!! I am so proud of this interview and I hope you all enjoy it!
