Summary

If there’s one thing Cedric the Entertainer has been missing this past year, it’s performing for a live audience. Bob and Cedric talk about the nerves that come with returning to the stage and wonder if they’ll just have to return to lives of adjusting auto claims and cutting deli meat. While looking back on his career, Cedric talks about the social responsibility that comes with being in the public eye, his experience filming CBS’s The Neighborhood, and the fond memories he holds from the making of the movie “Barbershop”.

0:00.0	A gift to find jewelry holds so much meaning. It can really mark a moment. That's why I love
0:05.6	being a jewelry consultant at Shane Company. I get so much joy helping our customers find something
0:11.1	special for the people they love. Like the customer in the military who wanted to propose to his
0:16.6	girlfriend before he was deployed, we rushed to get the engagement ring ready for him,
0:21.8	and he was overwhelmed with gratitude. Or the customer who survived cancer. The whole time she
0:27.9	was in treatment, her grown daughter was by her side taking care of her. She told us her daughter
0:33.5	had a heart of gold. And to show her appreciation, she gave her a 14 karat gold heart necklace.
0:40.4	Another customer came in to get his wife a gift to celebrate their growing family. They were
