There are two women in Eric Paulsen's life that he sees more than any other: Sally-Ann Roberts, his co-anchor for nearly 15 years and his wife, Bethany, whom he has been happily married to for a year and half.
Well, I had an interesting thought: if I asked Eric a set of questions, who know him better? The results are interesting. Eric - I'm sorry if I got you in trouble. This was too much fun to pass up.

Question #9 - What color are Eric's eyes?

Question #10 - What was Eric's most memorable moment on the morning show?
Bethany: Eric has had many memorable moments through the years and I know he has a favorite from the David Bernard days that stands above the rest. Although I don't know that it was a high point in morning show history that the audience needs to be reminded of. You'll have to see if Sally's willing to share that one.
Sally-Ann: Eric was startled by Rob while holding a snake. Eric then chased Rob around with the snake.
Eric: The time Sally asked David Bernard and me on live television, "have you ever had a Sugar daddy"? David and I burst out laughing... said no... then asked Sally if she'd like one. She said yes. We told her we'd work on it. During the commercial break we explained the meaning of "Sugar daddy". When we came back she apologized. You gotta love Sally.
Bethany Correct = 9
Sally-Ann Correct = 5

Well, there you have it! The person who has chosen to be with Eric knows him better than the person who is stuck working with him. And I guess that makes sense. Eric - I guess you're not sleeping on the couch tonight.
