I can remember vividly watching the Democratic National Convention in July of 2004 and seeing Illinois state Sen. Barack Obama for the first time — well, I knew about him, but seeing him speak for the first time. The Democratic presidential nominee at the time pegged Obama to give the keynote. Many said, “Who?” But when he appeared and spoke, it was spellbinding.

After 20 years, and after tonight, Obama will no longer be the Democrats' top star

[Note: Unless otherwise indicated, the commentary and quotes in this article are from the author's interview with those mentioned.]. Elizabeth Montgomery was one of the most popular actors from the 1950s to her unfortunate passing from cancer in 1995. Before, during, and after her benchmark Emmy-nominated role as twitch-witch Samantha Stephens on TV's Bewitched (ABC, 1964-1972), Montgomery made over 200 additional appearances in other weekly shows, TV-movies, and feature films.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Meghan Markle's venture into the lifestyle space has not been met with universal acclaim, particularly from one well-known figure: Martha Stewart. Earlier this year, in March, Meghan unveiled her new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. The brand immediately drew comparisons to other celebrity wellness empires, particularly that of culinary icon Martha Stewart. However, these comparisons have reportedly struck a nerve with Stewart, who finds them both "irritating and insulting."

Ben delivers a monologue live from the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, drawing on his years of experience at political conventions. He notes a difference between what he is hearing from delegates that initially had expected this to be a convention nominating President Biden, compared to the heavily produced product broadcasted on television.   Plus, Ben emphasizes how scarily radical the views of some DNC protestors have been and how this convention will affect the race for the White House.
