to be so hot that schools were sending out, like, warnings to parents about that chip. >> that death chip. yeah i can't remember what it was called. right. yeah. >> just make it seem deadly or lethal. and the kids, they just want them. my kids all over it. so true. >> every teenager will want it. >> yeah. >> all right. more restaurants are introducing membership and subscription options. and it can help you save on dining out at applebee's, a $200 meal pass includes $30 worth of food and drink. once a week for a year at red lobster, you can buy one entree and get another for six extra dollars. red robin also offers unlimited refills on more than 30 items? what do you think, amma? i feel like since you would probably spend more than 30 each time you go, they probably make good money off that because you're like dropping 60 or 70. you know? that's true. >> that's a good point. i mean, if the math works out, i'm sitting here because i prefer not to do math, then i say all about it, if it's going to work for you, i will say i completely

forgot about red robin. they are so awesome. i haven't eaten there in ages. yeah, but yeah, you always have the bottomless fries and you know, it's pretty cool. but i think you're right. >> i mean, it's like so many of those. any kind of business that can lure you in with a membership of some kind, they know if you're going to spend more than that. yeah, it's worth it in the end to them. interesting. all right. well the 90s are apparently back first wide leg jeans. now george costanza the yankees are celebrating the seinfeld sidekick with a bobblehead night. you might remember the character worked for the yankees for a while. the giveaway happens on july fifth, exactly 35 years after seinfeld. originally debuted. in case you're wondering, seinfeld went off the air in 1998, 26 years ago, which is hard to believe, but sandy is still in syndication, and you can see it every night somewhere. >> yeah, and you know what, dan? i mean, i didn't watch seinfeld all the time, but there were there was a huge following, obviously. so i can see how this would be a draw. yeah. >> and he was it was a classic

character. and his quote unquote work with the yankees was was very funny, interestingly, i have seen every episode of science felled many, many times, but i never watched it once when it was in production. wasn't not one. one episode because, you know, we're working at night. it was on a different network that makes sense. didn't see it, but in syndication, i've seen it. i met him once here. jason alexander, very nice guy, was leaving the station doing a taping. very nice guy, but a clever marketing idea for the yankees. >> yeah, definitely. i will say i'm one of the very few who does not like seinfeld. i don't know, i tried to watch it once and i was like, seriously, that's okay . >> can i just confess i didn't like friends? can we just all confess like a show? we didn't like that everybody else loved seinfeld. >> i didn't watch friends much. i didn't dislike it, but i didn't really watch it a lot. >> yeah, i didn't watch friends much, but i didn't dislike it. like dan. yeah. >> everybody has, you know, different sets of tastes. but i did like i said, i never watched it a single time when it was in

production. okay. >> what bobblehead would you want? dan? oh, you're in seinfeld or in general, or any tv show that you liked. and you think that character would be great for? >> here's the weird one, probably one of my favorite shows of all time. just takes me back a little bit. rockford files i'd love a jim rockford. oh, i just sentimental. >> i'd say x-files, remember? >> oh, that'd be a good one. that would be a great one. >> doo doo doo doo doo doo. okay i'll go for, like, jack t

a honey baked ham that's been slow smoked, hand glazed, and spiral sliced. or, a kelly baked ham.

nobody wants a kelly baked meal, not even kelly. every bite is a celebration with the honey baked ham company.

last year, the maui chapter was created to provide disaster relief relief after the lahaina wildfires, which were so devastating. as you know, volunteers there help distribute food supplies, even hugs >> one of the main goals of global empowerment mission is to provide the most amount of aid to the most amount of the people at the quickest possible time. there's always been a connection between us and other communities. people have always felt a connection to maui, but especially coming, say, from the bay area. we find that a lot of our volunteers here at the west side distribution center are, in fact from california, from areas that have gone through some sort of tragedy and they want to give back. it's a sense of fellowship , a sense of connection with people that have been through something the same

empowerment mission is a global humanitarian and disaster aid organization that creates local chapters in all of the places it goes to, that are staffed and operated entirely by locals. so here, gem hawaii was created in response to the lahaina wildfires. our main goal right now is responding to the immediate and the long terme needs of disaster recovery. here in maui. >> we've definitely seen a huge volunteer reach out from visitors, which is wonderful, and i feel like is not only helping them understand what is actually occurring here, but the genuine setting, a precedence of how to be as a person to help other people that are in need, which is a very, very beautiful thing. and then so at our west side distribution center, we package boxes about 20 to 25 pound boxes of food donated to

us by the maui food bank and distribute them to impacted families. >> here at our height, we were doing about 2000 boxes a week. we're down to about 600 or so a week, which is great. so not just the food. we also have things like feminine products, diapers, baby food, things that not every family needs. the families don't have to get out of their cars. it preserves some sense of privacy and discretion. >> but firefighters from our asian firefighters association came out here and helped for a number of weeks. so my buddy stan lee, who's a president of the firefighters association, i asked him, can we help? he goes, yeah, he put me in contact with skye, who i called a couple weeks ago, and he goes, we love to have you guys. so i brought my wife and two daughters over here. so rather than land on the beach, we're here helping out. and. so awesome. this whole setup is really great. >> on february 8th was six months since the fires. i think most people that have been through a traumatic experience can attest that it feels both

like it was just yesterday, but also years ago, sort of that relativity of time and what we've seen is that we've formed new bonds. we've forged new relationships. that's something that i hope we never lose. >> it's still a very fresh wound . it still hurts a lot of people. and a lot of times, even through the drive through or just speaking with someone in person, they might break down and begin to cry. and sometimes they just need a minute and sometimes they just need a hug and not just a box of food or a case of water, but also a little bit of love and acceptance as to we're all going through this together and it's going to be okay. >> and new data shows the ocean's hot temperatures broke records every day for more than a year. that is, according to a study from the national oceanic and atmospheric administration and climate analyzer scientist warned that the ocean's heat

could destroy coral. which of course carries the most diverse underwater ecosystems. they also say it can lead to extreme weather and heavily impact marine life. so this is all very worrisome. it is. >> it's directly tied to our quality of life here on earth, obviously. but in the meantime, we do have some fabulous weather. >> yeah. very pleasant right, sandy? i soak it up. >> absolutely. enjoy while it lasts because later on this week it's going to cool off. let's take a look at live doppler seven right now kristen and dan and you will notice that there's a little finger of fog right near the coastline that will expand while you're sleeping, and tomorrow we will see some lingering fog near the coast. otherwise sunshine. upper 50s to the mid 70s for your high temperatures. but on wednesday those numbers start to come down a little bit more. thursday is a holding pattern, but look at friday. we're in the 50s and 60s. it is noticeably cooler. and that's when the rain begins to move in friday afternoon. continuing into sunday off and on. and we are looking at snow up in the mountains. kirkwood 25in, expecting about 4/10 of an
