If you have spent any time listening in to my show or podcast over the past six years you know that I reference my cardboard cutout of Harry Connick Jr as "my perfect co-host" I have shared many pictures of me with the cutout of HCJ as well as in-studio guest love snapping selfies with Harry. The aforementioned cutout is also part of numerous pranks.Over the years he has shown up unexpectedly in a coworker's office or in a bathroom stall to surprise coworkers who were not expecting to see those piercing blue eyes staring them down. We even dress him like"Ol Santa Claus" or "The Happy Elf" at Christmas time.I was overjoyed when I was approached about interviewing him about his new single "Stars Still Shine". I shot a text to my Brand Manager Supa Dave Jackson, that I was going to move Harry to my home studio for the time being. However, when I went to bring Harry home, he was MIA, either he was taken, hidden, or pulled a Flat Stanley on me. I am counting out the "Flat Stanley" angle because I have yet to receive one letter from him. I did receive something better, I got an interview with The Harry Connick Jr. He came onto The Diva's Dish to talk about a song he wrote and performed and which was the finale on the recent CBS two-hour special he hosted "Stars Still Shine" "United We Sing: A Grammy Tribute To The Unsung Heroes". All proceeds from will benefit the Ellis Marsalis Center for Music in New Orleans. The center“Stars Still Shine” was co-founded by Harry Connick, Jr. and Branford Marsalis. Located in the 9th ward, the Ellis Marsalis Center for Music broadens opportunities for underserved children, youth and musicians by providing a safe, positive environment where children and youth develop musically, academically and socially through instruction in music and the arts, academic support, computer coding, basic food security & mental health support.Download the single today, you will be doing a great thing to support a great organization.

I had a great time talking about setting goals and intentions with none other than Coach Sonia Zarbatany. She gives us insight on how to make it through the quarantine with setting our own goals and plans in motion as well as taking care of what we need to do for our families and ourselves.
