Tina Fey
Tina Fey glasses! 👓 Yes!!! Place my order🤪
Wow!
It’s great that Carol Burnett enjoyed the interview because I did too. What a thrill for the interviewer when she told him that.
She is so wonderful, as an entertainer as well as a human being, and she has been right from the start. Always kind, funny, smart, and so humble...well it’s amazing and an inspiration.
I’m nearly 63 years old and like everyone else my age, she’s always seemed like a beloved member of the family and nothing’s changed with the passing of the years.
Incredible interview with an incredible woman. This podcast is added to my list of follows.
Reruns
Way to many reruns that are alluded to being new. This also goes for the Sunday today show. I hate being given the feeling of Deja vu when it’s very fake. Need to start letting people know when you re air them on tv. Also don’t bother reuploading the pods. It’s pointless. Put out a new sode or none at all.
