The booking to end all bookings, Queen of EVERYTHING, Oprah graces the podcast with her presence and wisdom. After 25 years, Oprah shares the moment she knew it was time to step away from her show, and gives Kelly some career advice. She tells Kelly about the love of her life, if she ever has FOMO, coping with losing a dog, and what she really thought about her bestie Gayle King going to space. Kelly finally gets to ask Oprah if she would have liked her hostess gift...and spoiler she would REGIFT! PLUS, Oprah tells a never before shared story about her royally famous neighbors, The Sussexes (aka Harry and Meghan). And you don't want to miss hearing what Oprah's currently obsessed with and why she decided to do her new podcast, The Oprah Podcast!
