Former Young & Restless Star Daniel Goddard Says His Time on the Show ‘Amounted to Nothing'
Daniel Goddard is well-known among The Young and the Restless fans for his roles as Cane Ashby and Caleb Atkinson. Recently, the actor made a shocking revelation years after leaving the show, stating that his time there brought him nothing.
Here is everything you need to know about Goddard's latest statement regarding the popular soap opera.
Daniel Goddard, a former star of The Young and the Restless, recently began portraying Professor Henry Dalton on General Hospital. In a recent interview with Woman's World, Goddard discussed his new role and reflected on his time on The Young and the Restless. He mentioned that he had stepped away from acting but was invited to audition for the role of Jack Brennan on General Hospital. However, at the time, he was focused on his business ventures.
The 53-year-old also shared that it was difficult for him to get back to auditioning after stepping away from acting. He said, 'I had a lot of hesitation because I had a lot of fear. Fear of not being good, of failing, of letting down a fanbase.' Goddard added how 'those 12 years or so on Y&R amounted to nothing, because I was back to auditioning.'
However, Goddard managed to overpower his fear and had a great time auditioning. He shared, 'When I left, I thought, 'Geez, I missed that!' Because I hadn't auditioned in four years. I had no intention of going back to acting, but it was a moment of awakening for me.'
Daniel Goddard discussed the differences between working on both shows. He explained that in The Young and the Restless, actors receive the entire script, which allows them to see what other characters are saying about them. 'I was also always going into the writers' room to read scripts four weeks ahead, so I'd know where the character was going,' he said. On the other hand, in General Hospital, he only receives the pages that include his own character.

Fancy Swiss Chocolatier Läderach Is Bringing ‘FrischSchoggi' to Washington State
Seattle-area malls are going to be upgrading their chocolate offerings this summer, as the Swiss brand Läderach is set to open two stores, one in Westfield Southcenter next month, and one in Bellevue Square in August. These will be the first Läderach locations in Washington State; the chain already has locations across the country, including a flagship store in New York. So, what's Läderach? The thing the brand is most famous for, according to the press release we got, is 'FrischSchoggi,' a.k.a. fresh chocolate. You order at the counter by weight, and a Läderach chocolatier breaks pieces of chocolate off of slabs. The stores will also have the kinds of thing you'd expect at a chocolate shop, including truffles, bars, popcorn, and so on. Everything comes from Läderach's production facilities in Switzerland. Now on to more news you should know: Rainier Beer may not be brewed in Seattle anymore, but the brand is still trying to keep a foot on the ground here with R-Day, a free music festival in Georgetown that serves as a 'thank you letter' to Seattle, according to the brand. This year R-Day lands on September 6, and will be headlined by Mudhoney. There will also be food courtesy of the Dubsea Fish Sticks truck, plus (of course) Rainier Beer and cocktails using Rainier gin. Go here for more info.

Popular fast-food burger chain aims major comeback amid closures
Nothing is worse than staying up late and getting hungry in the middle of the night, but having nearly no options available. Luckily, many fast-food restaurants are open late or even 24 hours, and most have value meals that make buying food too tempting to pass up. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter However, not many have an entire menu dedicated to late-night munchies. Jack in the Box introduced the first Munchie Meal in 2013 as part of its late-night menu expansion. This offering provided customers with more options packed into a value meal for an affordable price. Related: McDonald's brings back unexpected breakfast item after 6 years This addition also encouraged customers to purchase late-night meals at their local Jack in the Box rather than with the competition, aiming to increase sales during extended hours. Since its debut, the fast-food chain has launched multiple versions of the Munchie Meal and collaborations with top celebrities, including Ice Cube and Snoop Dogg. Jack in the Box (JACK) has partnered with musical artist T-Pain to launch the latest Munchie Meal collaboration. The new T-Pain Munchie Meal includes a Burg-R-Tater Melt or Chick-N-Tater Melt, a taco, medium seasoned curly fries, a Stuffed Cookie, and a small drink. This latest addition also comes with an exclusive collector's edition T-Pain air freshener. If none of the selected items appeal to your taste buds, customers can customize their own with the Build Your Own Munchie Meal, where they can choose any entrée, two sides, and a drink. The T-Pain Munchie Meal is available until July 27 at all Jack in the Box restaurants nationwide and can be ordered via the Jack app or online through the Jack in the Box website.

Jack in the Box and T-Pain are rolling out "Jack Zone Wars," a Fortnite gaming experience exclusively made for this collaboration and dedicated to all gamers. Players who order a Munchie Meal on the Jack app can unlock special weapons that will give them an advantage in the game. T-Pain will also host a live-streamed Fortnite event on June 26 to join players. Jack in the Box unveiled its multi-faceted "Jack on Track" plan in April to improve its long-term financial performance by closing around 150 to 200 underperforming restaurants. "Our actions today focus on three main areas: addressing our balance sheet to accelerate cash flow and pay down debt, while preserving growth-oriented capital investments related to technology and restaurant reimage; closing underperforming restaurants to position ourselves for consistent net unit growth and competitive unit economics; and, an overall return to simplicity for the Jack in the Box business model and investor story," said Jack in the Box CEO Lance Tucker in the announcement.

Jack in the Box is doing everything it can to return the business to growth, and launching a Munchie Meal that encourages customer engagement is a step closer to helping it regain its lost market share.
