The most real and honest view of the world

Lisa is the smartest person. I know. I would know… she is my sister! I get all my news from her show everyday so I sound intelligent in the world! As a judge, lawyer and mother there is not much she doesn’t have an opinion on and you want to hear it. Trust me! Xo Jill
