Trish chats it up with the owner and Executive Chef of Mother's Bistro Bar in Portland, Oregon.

After several years of being in an abusive marriage, she got out and started creating a life for herself. Lisa kept coming back to cooking, doing catering on the side, and said it all started to take shape when she went to culinary school.

David tells stories from his former news days, the moment he got burned out, and what he decided to do next.

She talks about growing up in the south, going to culinary school, and moving to Los Angeles with her husband. Tanous says she was pregnant in the city, didn't know anyone, but says one night of going to a dinner party that she didn't want to go to changed everything. That's where she met Ferguson, who also was reluctant to go and the two hit it off immediately.

He was a frequent flier on CBS News during and after the 2020 presidential election. He calls it one of the most secure elections and that it worked better than any other election. He says what's frustrating, is the continued lack of distrust in the results and the threats that still exist to poll workers.

Trish talks to Ellen Bennett, the founder of Hedley & Bennett, a company she started that makes aprons and kitchen gear.
