You know us on screen — but what about off? 

I thought it’d be fun to check in with some of your favorite Fox personalities (plus a few surprise appearances!) to learn more about who they are behind the scenes. 

And who’s on the docket this week? 

It’s none other than Bret Baier, chief political anchor, anchor and executive editor of "Special Report with Bret Baier."

Hope you get a kick out of our Q&A below. 

And stay tuned for more — I'll have many more revealing pieces in the days and weeks ahead.

Dana Perino Bret Baier

Dana Perino Bret Baier (Fox News)

BB: Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan (five with me).

BB: The fireworks red, white, and blue pants. And yes, they do. Because if I am hitting it bad, people still yell out, "Hey, nice pants!"

BB: I want to go to the Seychelles and chill with the family sometime (the string of islands in the Indian Ocean between Madagascar and Kenya). 

BB: Yes — 100%. Experience of a lifetime.

BB: I would like to make the cut at a Senior PGA Tour event. I would like to take a few months to take my family around the world. And I would like to get a pilot’s license.

BB: I mowed lawns early. Then I had a bunch of lawns and some other kids working with me. Then I took that money, got a moped and became a cart room guy at a golf club.

BB: "Do you want to work hard? If you knew that working hard would bump you up the chain quickly, would you do it?"

BB: All the time. Charles Krauthammer, as brilliant as he was, always told me it happened to him. L'esprit de l'escalier — staircase wit. Figuring out the perfect thing to say too late. I try to dream about the big interviews the night before to try to cut down on regret.

BB: President Reagan could have been pretty pithy and funny on Twitter. And I bet President Lyndon Johnson may have had some choice tweets, too.  

BB: Success to me is dreaming your wildest dreams and waking up to see that they have happened — and having to set goals multiple times because you are reaching them. And bottom line, happiness and finding what that means to you. 

BB: My greatest joy is dying laughing with my family about something on a family trip — where we are focused on each other and having a good time. If on that same trip I could play 18 holes under par, then that’s pure joy.
