Here it is, folks - our 200th episode of #ASpoonfulOfPaolo with the one and only #GayleKing! I met Gayle for the first time 20 years ago when Oprah made my wildest dream come true. It was an honor and privilege to interview Gayle decades later at the #CBSMornings studio in Times Square - a true full circle moment. Gayle showed up to play and this special episode is filled with lots of fun, heartfelt and surprising moments. Patrick and I thank you for being a part of this amazing Spoonful journey and I hope my interview with Gayle inspires you to always dream BIG! 🥄🥄🥄 INSTAGRAM https://instagram.com/PaoloPresta THREADS https://www.threads.net/@paolopresta FACEBOOK http://www.facebook.com/spoonfulofpaolo TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@paolo.presta TWITTER https://twitter.com/PaoloPresta WATCH ALL OF OUR CELEBRITY INTERVIEWS AT http://www.aspoonfulofpaolo.com

Her nickname may be Scary, but she has a heart of GOLD! Here is my sit down interview with one of my dream guests - the one and only Mel B! She just released an update to her powerful memoir “Brutally Honest” where she opens up about her 10 year abusive marriage and how she was able to take her life back. In the true spirit of Girl Power, she is sharing her story to change the conversation around domestic violence and provide hope and healing to victims everywhere. We’re also celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Spice Girls in a very special way! Stay until the end for an emotional surprise that had everyone in the room in tears. This was one of my favorite interviews ever, so grab a cookie and enjoy my chat with Mel B!

The last time I talked with Valerie Bertinelli was 2 years ago, which was a pretty dark time in both of our lives. I can't tell you how JOYOUS it was to reunite in person and see just how much we both have been able to heal since then (after putting in lots of hard work, of course). We had such a meaningful and fun conversation about her new cookbook “Indulge”, how she deals with grief, and how Valerie got to a place where she truly loves herself. I can’t tell you how much I loved this episode and I know you will too. Oh and I promise you that after this interview, you’ll want to order her fantastic cookbook #Indulge. I can’t stop making recipes from it and, let me tell you, her dishes are easy & delicious! 😋🥄❤️ INSTAGRAM https://instagram.com/PaoloPresta THREADS https://www.threads.net/@paolopresta FACEBOOK http://www.facebook.com/spoonfulofpaolo TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@paolo.presta TWITTER https://twitter.com/PaoloPresta WATCH ALL OF OUR CELEBRITY INTERVIEWS AT http://www.aspoonfulofpaolo.com #valeriebertinelli

Stop what you're doing because my interview with the legendary Brooke Shields is here! We talked about her new Netflix movie #MotherOfTheBride, her incredible career and her truly one-of-a-kind life. Stay til the end for super fun game that had us all spinning and a special surprise that left Brooke (and us) in awe. I've been so honored to sit down with some of Hollywood biggest legends, and my interview with Brooke Shields is right up there at the top. I will treasure my time with her forever and her inspiring story will remind you to always persevere & dream BIG! 🥄🥄🥄 INSTAGRAM https://instagram.com/PaoloPresta THREADS https://www.threads.net/@paolopresta FACEBOOK http://www.facebook.com/spoonfulofpaolo TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@paolo.presta TWITTER https://twitter.com/PaoloPresta WATCH ALL OF OUR CELEBRITY INTERVIEWS AT http://www.aspoonfulofpaolo.com

Ending season 13 of #aspoonfulofpaolo with the super-talented Mandy Moore reminds me that dreams do come true when you do the work and never give up. For the past 25 years, #MandyMoore has been a perfect example of that. I can't tell you what an honor and privilege it was to speak with her. A huge part of my life was spent listening to Mandy’s music, watching her movies & being mesmerized by her brilliant performance on the Emmy award-winning show “This Is Us". Mandy and her two #ThisIsUs co-stars, Sterling K. Brown and Chris Sullivan have a new fantastic podcast called “That Was Us” where they go back and revisit each episode of the iconic series. I truly loved this conversation with Mandy. We laughed, we cried, and I gave her a VERY special surprise that left her speechless. It was a first for our show and a first for Mandy Moore! I hope you all love this episode and may you never stop dreaming BIG!

SEASON 14 of #ASpoonfulOfPaolo has arrived and we are kicking things off with the amazing, Tony Award-Nominated Micaela Diamond! Micaela is currently starring in Ryan Murphy's new hit series #Grotesquerie as the scene-stealing fan favorite Sister Megan. We met up with Micaela in NYC where she opened up about her meteoric journey from growing up in Margate, New Jersey to seeing her name in lights on Broadway, and what's it like working on a Ryan Murphy show alongside the incredible Niecy Nash. I truly loved my conversation with Micaela, and I hope her story of dreaming big inspires you to never give up on your dreams! Enjoy and thanks for watching! 🥄🥄🥄❤️❤️❤️ #micaeladiamond #sistermegan #niecynash INSTAGRAM https://instagram.com/PaoloPresta THREADS https://www.threads.net/@paolopresta FACEBOOK http://www.facebook.com/spoonfulofpaolo TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@paolo.presta TWITTER https://twitter.com/PaoloPresta WATCH ALL OF OUR CELEBRITY INTERVIEWS AT http://www.aspoonfulofpaolo.com
