5 Things You Need to Know About Robert Geller
Which three celebrities would he sit down to dinner with? What TV show would he love a to have a cameo on? Get to know the voice of Woodbine thoroughbred racing, @WoodbineGeller. 

You get to travel anywhere in the world. Where is it and why?
 
Spain. I would start with Madrid and Barcelona then venture off. Any country that believes in an afternoon siesta is my type of place. Better get there before that changes. Love sun, architecture, good food, that romantic accent and their hot cultured look.”
 
What’s the one group/singer that you’re most embarrassed to admit you love listening to?
 
“I love sappy love songs by The Carpenters and the Bee Gees, but am not embarrassed to say it. To like Puff Daddy, especially his music videos more than his actual music, now that could be a tad embarrassing.
 
You get front row seats to any major awards show. Which one do you choose?
 
“If I'm going to go to a major awards show, it may as well be the big kahuna, the Oscars. But I will need Will (Mr. Will Wong, @mrwillw) to come along with me.
 
You get to sit down with any three celebrities for dinner and conversation. Who are they and what’s on the menu?
 
“Joan Rivers. How dare she die on me! Dame Judi Dench, Kunal Nayyar (Raj, in The Big Bang Theory) and Cher.
Greek salad to start, for the main, warm smoked trout on a bed of wild mushroom rice, served with baby roast potatoes, asparagus and butternut squash, then chocolate soufflé for dessert.

You get a guest cameo on any TV show, past or present. Which show is it and why?

“The Mary Tyler Moore Show because I loved watching it. Who wouldn't want to be in a scene with such a phenomenal cast? I would love to have played the boss, but am probably more suited to the role of Ted Knight. His lines were way more fun anyway.”
