Steph is back from yet ANOTHER "Aloha" vacation...and we couldn't be happier.  It was great to hear her sweet voice mixed with Mr. Chipper himself, Stan Comeau.

Enjoy another GREAT episode of the Friday Show, brought to you each week by Kokopelli Grill in Port Angeles!

We made it.  We made it to Wednesday.  All three of the Scramblers got sleep last night...or so it would seem.  Open borders, open marriages and cheese are some of the topics you'll hear today.  Make it a good one!

Mr. Michael Pare is an actor who has had women swooning since the 80's when he first showed up on TV in The Greatest American Hero.  I got to chat with him about his new movie that is out now, "Hollow Point". Look for it streaming and also in theaters.  Also, I may have accidentally flirted with him....it's fine. :)

If ever an in person interview would have been preferred...this would be that. :)

In a brand new limited series, twenty-two of the most iconic, boldest, and fiercest Challenge All Stars from the original The Real World and Road Rules return for a second chance at the ultimate competition as they vie for their shot at the $500,000 grand prize. Hosted by TJ Lavin, the nine-episode season will follow competitors as they face unprecedented, over-the-top challenges set in the Andes Mountains of Argentina. The Paramount+ original series welcomes back many of the greatest reality titans the franchise has ever seen, including some who haven't competed in more than two decades.

I had a BLAST talking with "The Marge".  She is funny, real, and hopefully, my new BFF. :)  I hope you enjoy our chat.  And seriously...go get her book...it's fantastic!

Margaret is grateful to be able to use her platform to bring awareness to causes that are close to her heart. Margaret featured her partnership with Brave Gowns by creating the "Hospital Heroes" gala raising funds for Northwell Health & Cohen Children's Hospital which was on season 9 of Real Housewives. She was honored at the 2019 Pride celebration by receiving the keys to the City of Englewood from Mayor Michael Wildes for her continued support of the LGBTQ community. In addition to riding the Bravo Word Pride float in the 50th annual Pride Parade Margaret is an avid supporter of Live Out Loud, which inspires and empowers LGBTQ youth. Another important theme to Margaret is that of women's empowerment. As an FIT graduate entering the garment center in the 90's Margaret was no stranger to forging her way as a strong woman in typically a man's world. After having her child she realized she didn't want to go back to a career that would take away from time with her family and didn't support her being a mom so she launched her own company. Margaret has never compromised her identity even when she was told she had to in order to succeed and today she has been featured on Fox Business News proudly wearing her pigtails. To this day Margaret runs her company, of all women, to empower her team and help them achieve a work/life balance where the women can bring children to the office and be themselves, pigtails and all.

Margaret is a lifestyle expert and can be seen regularly on network TV sharing her tips and picks for organizing, accessorizing and glamorizing!

Things got off to a little rocky start this morning, but quickly turned around to some jocularity and shenanigans.

Richard Thompson is an icon in the music industry.  I got to chat with him about his new book, "Beeswing: Losing My Way and Finding My Voice".  A charming man, I very much enjoyed chatting with him, and listening to his fantastic accent.

Cheese.  Really, it's the perfect topic...especially for a SCRAMBLE that is usually CHEESY anyway.
