  • ZOE MOON INTERVIEW
    Ohio born Zoe Moon originally moved to Los Angeles to pursue music. She signed a publishing deal with BMG Music and recorded for the legendary Clive Davis' Arista Records, touring across two continents. She headlined her own shows and opened for many personal favorites, including David Bowie, Sir Elton John, Beck, and Hole. Having been initiated into the esoteric world at a very young age, it was natural for Zoe to read astrological charts for those she met on the road, in the studio, on set, or at her concerts.
    The technical director on "Will and Grace" approached her to shoot a reality show titled "The Adventures of the Abductees," featuring her band, which aired nationally on cable television for a year. Zoe next came aboard on an independent film company to write, direct, and star in spiritually edgy projects she and her partners would develop.
    "Zoe" means "Circle of Life," and is the root word for "zodiac." As her name implies, she began to come full circle when the film industry began pursuing her to read for them. She has spent several years as a much sought-after counselor in private readings for top directors, producers, actors, and writers, and other insiders who are trying to time their premieres, shoot dates, auditions, casting calls, contracts, and to find the right chemistry between actors.
    Zoe's popularity crosses all lines, as is evidenced by her loyal following on "The Zoe Moon Astrology Show," a live one-hour radio show every Thursday night on CBS radio's "The New Sky Radio," at 5 pm PT/8 pm ET. She also makes frequent appearances as a favorite guest on several other shows.

"MerrieWay's" youth anchors participated in the Presidential summit with every living president and Oprah Winfrey. Ms. Ross' brainchild, "Stand For Children" rallied 300,000 people at the Lincoln Memorial.
    Currently she is producing "The Bully," in tandem with "Peace Smarts" for anti-bullying, and her transformational book, "Bounce Off The Walls: Land on Your Feet...How to Morph Havoc and Hassles into Harmony and Happiness" is recently released.

  • ART OF LIVING: CHEF JON ASHTON
    Like the "Beatles," Chef Jon Ashton began his story in the cold, gray port city of Liverpool, England. From the time he was a young boy, he learned about the joy of cooking in his Granny Ashton's warm cottage kitchen, where he created recipes with her before he took home economic classes at school, furthering his interest in the art of cooking. In spite of being bullied by schoolmates for being one of the few boys in the class, he persisted, quickly realizing cooking was his passion.
    Jon graduated college in Great Britain and worked at several restaurants, leading to appearances on British television. It wasn't long before America discovered him, and he answered the call from America, leaving everything he had known behind him and traveling to America, arriving in Florida with two thousand dollars in his pocket.
    Jon quickly began producing and starring in his own local access television show soon after taking a position as the regular midday chef at Orlando's FOX affiliate station, landing him on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" within a year.
    Having been an obese child, Jon fully understands the struggles and challenges of being overweight, and is committed to improving the eating choices of young people in America. He has regular appearances on "The Today Show," and is currently the food correspondent on the nationally syndicated "The Daily Buzz." He is also the Executive Chef for Relish Magazine, inspiring 62 million readers monthly with simple and seasonal recipes.
    Jon has worked with many A-List celebrities and culinary icons, including Vince Vaughn, Seth Green, Andy Garcia, Rachael Ray, Paula Deen, Emeril Lagasse, Martha Stewart, Giada De Laurentis, and many others.

  • MIKE ISABELLA INTERVIEW
    Mike took ill and will be rescheduled. Todd Kliman and callers on the show tonight.
    Chef Mike Isabella, who competed in Season 6 of Bravo's "Top Chef," and subsequently, "Top Chef All Stars," recently, coming in as runner-up to winner Richard Blais, is set to open his first restaurant, "Graffiato," in Washington, DC within a matter of weeks.  The 120-seat Italian-inspired spot will feature snacks, small plates, and artisanal pizzas with seasonal ingredients influenced by the food Chef Isabella grew up eating in New Jersey, prepared by his Italian grandmother.
    Chef Isabella's formal training began at The Restaurant School in New York, where he took classes and cooked his way through some of New York City's finest establishments.
    After honing his skills in The Big Apple, he traveled down the coast to Philadelphia, first working as a sous chef for James Beard award winner, Douglas Rodriguez, at "Alma de Cuba," then a host of other Stephen Starr restaurants. At El Vez, Mike learned the true craft of Latin cuisine under the direction of Jose Garces, and as Executive Sous Chef of Marcus Samuelsson's "Washington Square," he educated himself on the strenuous, yet exciting task of opening a fine dining establishment.
    Relocating to Atlanta, Mike became Chef de Cuisine at a top Greek restaurant, "Kyma," immersing himself in the traditions of one of the world's oldest cuisines. Traveling through Greece and the Middle East, Chef Isabella learned the nuances of these cuisines, which helped form a base for his culinary imagination.
    Chef Isabella's first cookbook, "Flavors From a Jersey Italian," is due in Fall of 2012.
