Clay Chastain is still fighting to get his name on the ballot for Kansas City mayor even though he lives in Virginia. He said “elect me and I’ll get this city going with light rail, by crackie”. Which is worse: the fact he’d be a part time mayor or he uses phrases like “by crackie”? Does anyone under the age of 100 say that? I actually had to google the spelling!

Here are some highlights of my sister Sharon’s retirement from the Pentagon this past January, after 42 years of service. Secretary Of Defense, William Gates gave a stirring speech on her behalf. What an honor to be invited, and needless to say, I couldn’t be more proud!! Sharon has served through eight Presidential Administrations.

Tanna talked with the host of “Dinner: Impossible” about his new show “Chopped All Stars” and, after our wine chat, he revealed the secret ingredient in his famous apple pie. I bet your grandma never made it that way.

A new study finds that women make 75% of all household decisions, including what they eat, where they live and when to go to bed. Who rules your roost? Angela called my show and said she likes that her husband is the “boss” of her because she enjoys being taken care of.

Tanna talked with the founding member of the Peas about the two women who made him who he is and it wasn’t Fergie, although they did shake it up at the Superbowl!
