Amanda Kloots is an actor, dancer, writer, fitness entrepreneur, and co-host of the CBS show “The Talk.” She and Tig have lots of laughs talking about how she came up with her children’s book idea, giving advice to a mom who wants to make exercise fun for her ten-year-old daughter, counseling a listener whose friend owes her money, and helping a fan name her walking cane. Amanda also explains how she stays so upbeat even while grieving her late husband, Nick Cordero, and offers strategies to help others facing adversity.
