Yay, you're here. I'm Lisa Whittle and welcome to the Jesus Over Everything interview show,

affectionately known as Joe's Friday friend, where everyone I sit down and talk with is either

an old or a new friend of mine. So many people today's show could be for Survivor fans,

parents, and really anyone who needs

to give their fears and worries over to God. My incredible guest, Emmy-winning talk show TV host,

New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Hasselbeck is here on Joe. And let me tell you something.

She is one of the dearest souls I've had the privilege to meet on this show.

True Story.

We talk all about her new children's book, Flashlight Night, which is a must get for every single parent, I'm telling you.

And so much more.

How vocal she has always been about her faith, encouragement if someone is struggling to find their place right now.

And, of course, yes, as a Survivor fan myself,

I had to ask her about her experience on Survivor.

This interview is high on my list of ones I have enjoyed more than I can say.

Elizabeth Hasselbeck is the delight that you hope she will be and then some.

Thank you, my new friend, for coming on jail.

Okay, first off, my name is obviously Lisa, but get this, my birth name, my name on, like,

legal documents, is actually Elizabeth. And it is spelled with an S. Yay. So we're

practically twins. We're twinning. We're twin casting today. That's what's happening. I just love it.

Because it's rare to find an Elizabeth with an S, don't you think? I think it is. That is true.

I mean, I think I spent the majority of my childhood trying to find snacks and trying to explain to people, I was Elizabeth with an S.

Like that's just, that was what I said most days, hanging out of the snack machine and explaining to teachers that my name was with an S.
