and feeling the warmth from the blanket and the cold from the outside air. So I guess I'm just making more of a statement. But tonight on Therapist, we have Leah Michelle. I grew up being the biggest Gleek in the entire world, and I never got to see Glee live in concert. So this was extremely full circle for me. And Really important to me. It was one of my favorite interviews I have ever done. During the interview, I honestly couldn't believe that I was doing it because I kept thinking about how excited I would be as a 10-year-old if you told me that this would be my life today. So I'm just very grateful to Leah and everyone. It was incredible. It was incredible and I'm so excited for you guys to hear it.

I feel like you have so many amazing fans and so many great supporters. But I really feel like I was at the beginning.
You were at the beginning?
I was at the beginning. And I wrote you. And I was sending your videos to everyone I knew. This is the funniest person I have seen in years. There are certain people who tickle my funny bone and make me laugh. It's like... Will Ferrell, Kristen Wiig, and you. Stop. Whatever you do. I was trying to think of my top three. I remember when you did Baby Moses going down on the stream.
Yes, it was raining in LA.
It was raining? Yes. That was unbelievable. It's like true genius. It's like you are... I think all people who are funny, like, are geniuses. And you have to be, like, you have to be so smart. And you're so smart and funny together. And, like, oh, my God. Like, you brought me such joy.
What is Lea Michele's experience with Glee?

And then I'm going to do some songs from my albums also. But yes, I have like a big Glee section. Because it was such an important part of my life. And we did such great music on the show. And I think that a lot of people... Now also it's like Glee always is recycling through new generations and there is such a pull towards Glee and people really want to hear those songs and reminisce and kind of go back to the feeling that they felt of when they watched the show.
It was the first, yeah, it was the first show I ever watched live on TV.
Oh, really?
Yeah, it was, like, what, every Wednesday night?
Like, what's that like?
It was, like, I would sit down and I would be, like, it's Glee time because everyone at school was watching Glee.
Yeah.
And it was, like, it was such a cultural moment, I feel like. I mean, every morning after, all the songs from Glee would be on the iTunes chart.
Oh, my God.
Do you was there like one that you were? Well, because the the real I mean, everyone says like the Glee song is like, don't stop believing. But for me, the Glee song that I remember, like changing the course of like everything.
