All right, it is Tuesday, June 9th, and I am here with the lovely, the talented, very, very funny.

Cheryl Lentonwood, welcome back.

Well, thank you for having me back.

You know, when I was here last time, I knew the view was big, right?

But I didn't know that appearing on a view was going to change my life.

There's no place.

I was walking down Times Square right after we did it live.

People were walking up, talking to me, when are you coming back?

And I have to tell people, I just want to be able to, I want to be like a rotating guest host.

You know, when somebody's working on another project or something, that's what I want to do. I want to be part of the family. Well, you're always welcome. And I have to say, people really responded to you when you were guest hosting. We were going through a lot of different guest hosts and everyone brought different things. But I heard from a lot of fans that really loved you. I'm sure part of that is missing you from being on the talk for all that time.

Because even though the shows were kind of competitors, you could watch both because we were on

different times of days and I think a lot of people did.

Is the view experience very different sitting at our table versus the talk experience?

I think, I wouldn't say so different. It's more, it's a different type of fun.

Okay, so what's your favorite food? What do you love? I like Italian. Italian food. Okay. So

would you eat Italian food every day if you could? Probably. Okay. But then you eat different types of

Italian food. Yes, I need a little variety. That's right.

That's, and one thing about the talk, I remember when I first got there, they said, well, we don't do politics. Right. And as I kept listening to the topics that were selected, I said, you do politics, you just don't do it the way they do it. Mm-hmm. Right. And I think that being here, the fun of the difference is the camaraderie, the sisterhood, the friendship, the family atmosphere that even the guests enjoy, no matter who you're talking to, their guests in your home.

So it changed my life.

And I want to thank everybody to put their fingers to a keyboard and all of the

social media and all of the radio stations and TV stations that said, hey, we're glad to see

you back in daytime. How about that? It's so interesting. And I'm appreciative of it. And I hear that
