    I mean...do we even need a description here? My sit down with the legendary news icon Katie Couric. We talked all about Parkinson's and a million other things that I can't even really remember because I am pretty sure I blacked out for most of this conversation. What I do know is that she is hysterical and generous and I am lucky to know her.
