Blanche is a world traveler. She is easy, adventurous, curious and never says no. We have since I was a little boy been all over the planet - many times over. Recently at age 80 something she arrives in Los Angeles for the first time and explains "What a Marvelous place - let's explore it all" or on our trip to Tokyo she learnt that yes at a certain age even a lady should be luxuriating in sneakers. She hangs out with all my friends, even in their NYC hotel rooms when they're getting hair cuts. She naps anywhere and speaks to everyone. Here are some of our adventures together.

Now we have been friends for over 15 years, so to me it's just lovely Bob. But in fact Bob Guccione Jr is a legend in the publishing business - he started SPIN magazine and more recently Wonderlust Travel. He knows a lot about a lot, and I always marvel at his wit, creative mind and soulfulness. We sit down for a long long chat, which I think you will enjoy very much. He says it like it is, as you know I like to do myself.

In today's episode, we're spending time with the French born chef Dominique Crenn. She is the only female chef in the United States to attain three Michelin stars for her restaurant, Atelier Crenn, in San Francisco We hung out and talked about love, life, travel, food, the menus she’s doing for the Belmond riverboats in France, and even her kids. I've been in love with Dominique since the moment we met, because not only did I think that she was witty and very smart, she also had this deep wisdom… and a little twinkle in her eye.
