[@wg5788]

Great journalist and unpretentious. And Kimmel does his usual best of bringing out the funny stories of all his guests, even the ones you wouldn’t expect to generate much laughs. That is Jimmy’s gift. He is unparalleled in that regard and how he will be remembered when it’s all said and done.

I just love 🥰 Anderson Cooper. When I first started watching him 18 years ago he seemed like he would be such a stuff shirt when you see how serious he does the news ( of course news is serious ) but then when he’s not doing his thing he is the most laid back, down to earth, funniest guy ever. I always enjoy watching him outside of the news desk. Can’t wait to watch Jeopardy!! And yes I just adore his laugh 🤣☺️!

Panchang 810-It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Anderson had conversations with his Mom before she passed away about him wanting to be a father via surrogacy! Makes sense to me! Anderson’s Mom passed away shortly before (maybe 2 years or so) before he announced he was a new Dad! Anderson’s Mom may have known of his plans before she passed away, but very sad knowing as you mentioned, that she never had the chance to meet and love on her only grandchild! 💔
