“Whatever Ed and Donna laid down in their household that these two guys are so in touch with their emotions and comfortable sharing, it should be bottled up and you know taught and shown if necessary to any parents you know. And obviously, I relate; I’ve probably done more crying on this set than you know anybody,” said Eisen.

He added, “I have no problem showing my emotions on the air, none, full… whenever I can. I don’t I don’t mind it I get choked up, I think it is a sign of strength and um uh emotional normalcy if that’s such a thing to share it.”
