    Remembering ANTHONY GEARY

    My heart broke this week when I heard about the passing of General Hospital icon Anthony Geary. So many of us remember where we were when his character, Luke, married Laura. I grew up watching this show with my mom and sister, and I still watch it every night with my husband Patrick. We had the honor of interviewing Anthony Geary back in May of 2015 when he was retiring from the show. When we released the episode, Anthony sent me a text thanking me. As you’ll hear in the intro, it’s something I hold dear to my heart and will never forget. I will always treasure this intimate, honest and beautiful conversation with one of the greats. We will all miss you, Anthony and my deepest condolences to Anthony’s husband, Claudio.  To see the video version of this interview or any of our other interviews, head over to aspoonfulofpaolo.com or our YouTube channel.

    Discretion advised: This episode contains adult language. My interview with comedian, actor, and NYT bestselling author Leslie Jones is out today! This is truly one I will never forget. In this conversation, Leslie opens up about her new comedy special (which was taped the DAY after the election), how her big dreams took her to SNL, and her extraordinary grief journey with so much honesty and heart. I’m forever grateful for her vulnerability, her strength, and the beautiful energy she brought to this interview.  To see the video version of this interview or any of our other interviews, head over to aspoonfulofpaolo.com or our YouTube channel.

    10 years ago, my husband and I went to see the incredible Danielle Brooks in Broadway’s The Color Purple. We were mesmerized by her performance and we have been following her remarkable journey as a Grammy Winner and Oscar, Tony and Emmy nominated actor ever since. I've dreamed of this moment for a long time and today that dream comes alive. I am so proud to say we are kicking off our 15th season of A Spoonful of Paolo with the one and only Danielle Brooks! This interview is filled with love, dreams, inspiration and, of course, a surprise moment that had us all screaming! I hope Danielle’s story inspires you to believe in yourself, to never give up on your dreams, and to always pay it forward. Enjoy!

    MICHELLE BUTEAU

    My super fun, super special, and super heartfelt interview with the queen of surviving and thriving Michelle Buteau is out today! Michelle's story is beyond inspiring, and this small clip shows you how she did more than just manifest her dreams...she took charge of her life and ignored all the nay sayers. This A Spoonful of Paolo episode is bursting joy and love and a few surprises. I had so much fun talking with Michelle about her Oprah & Julia Child-inspired childhood to her stand up comedy to her hit Netflix show Survival of the Thickest! This will be an episode I will never forget because I walked away with a big boost of confidence and love for myself, and I hope you will too!
