it cheaper to pay off your credit card debt or take out a new car or home loan. at its meeting this afternoon the fed is expected to keep borrowing costs on hold at a 23 year high, but with inflation improving and the jobs market cooling, fed chair jerome powell could signal that that long awaited interest rate cut is on the horizon, possibly as soon as september. mortgage rates have already been dipping in anticipation of fed rate cut. the average rate on a 30 year fixed rate is down from 7.2% at the beginning of may to 6.8% today. that can make a big difference in your monthly payments. for a $400,000 home loan it will save you about $120 every month. but keep in mind that lower interest rates do mean you're earning less money on your savings in the bank. if you are considering putting funds into a certificate of deposit or cd, which has a 5% interest rate right now, some analysts say now is the time to lock that rate in. rebecca. >> rebecca: lock it down. if you have a banking app it should only take you a few

8:31 am
>> thank you. >> george: this sounds like such a fun movie. tell us about it. >> basically all we were thinking about while we were making it, we were trying to make the funniest movie we could make. it's fast. it's like a 90-minute ride. casey affleck co-stars. he co-wrote the movie and sent it to my wife and me. we loved it so much we tried to figure out a way to get it done. >> robin: you've worked with casey, his brother ben. what's the different dynamic with the two brothers? >> i mean, they're very different guys, but i think they're similar in a lot of ways. i have been in their lives for 43 years. we all grew up together. we lived in all these various stages from adolescents to being struggling actors out in l.a. marriage and fatherhood and all that stuff. we have this huge kind of common experience and shared
8:32 am
experience. so i think that's why we end up working together so much. they're similar in that way. they're both insanely talented and really smart and creatively tenacious. ed >> george: did you know it then when you were just little kids? >> it's weird. ben and i talked about it. it's a very odd thing. we didn't have family in the entertainment business. we didn't come from an entertainment city. we came from cambridge, massachusetts. but we were obsessed. i think fed on each other's obsession. that's kind of what ground our friendship. it wasn't weird to us that at 14 and 16 we were taking the but to new york and auditioning for things. seemed totally normal. >> lara: so great that you had each other to do it with, a buddy. >> yeah, that definitely turbo charged everything. then when we became well known for writing a movie together, that happened to us. >> lara: that old thing? [ laughter ] >> but we went through that together. do you know what i mean? it's been a real, you know, help for all of us to kind of --
8:33 am
>> lara: so nice to have each other through the ups and downs. way more ups. this is a real upper. the plot is funny. two bad guys on the run and a therapist? >> my psychiatrist, yeah, yeah. it's like casey and i did the oceans movies together. these two guys could never make it into that crew. they're the work t heist people you would ever want. my character has never committed a crime, but he's desperate. he needs money. so he gets enlisted to do this heist. doesn't know what he's doing. casey's character is kind of a career petty criminal but not a very good one. basically just wants a friend. it's the story of these two guys. the heist goes kind of as poorly as you would imagine, then the two are on the run together. we enlist the help of my psychiatrist. [ laughter ] >> george: let's take a look at a clip. >> and i'm your hostage? we're clear. >> great. right. >> no, you have to say it. >> you are my hostage. >> say i will kill you if you
8:34 am
don't help me. >> i don't have a choice? >> you have a choice. you're making a choice. you are a grown man accountable for your decisions. >> fine. i will kill you if you don't help me. >> good. [ laughter ] >> george: brilliant. >> yeah, yeah. we had a lot of fun shooting it, obviously. we improvised a lot. casey is incapable of saying the same thing the same way twice even though he wrote it. we had a lot of laughs. >> george: you also reunited with your bourne director. up for another bourne? >> i would do another one. it's always been if there's a good story. now a days people make these franchise movies, they start the first one and they've already got the fifth one planned and the whole architecture built. we never did that. we always went one at a time. we always assumed we wouldn't be lucky enough to make another one. it means each time you finish you got to go totally back to the drawing board and reinvent the story a little bit.
8:35 am
if someone can do that, i would love to. >> robin: you're all so refreshing, your attitude toward everything. gronk made a cameo in this latest film? >> he did. >> robin: what was it like having him on set? >> great. it was a cameo. i think he wanted a bigger part. gronk, you have one line. how much bigger did you expect it to be? [ laughter ] for movie people work, you know how it is. every day. it's rare when somebody lights up the room. he walked in and it was just like, everybody on the set was like, oh my gosh. >> lara: big giant teddy bear. >> robin: did he do a ping pong challenge? >> we had a ping pong table. we invited gronk to play. he was pretty good. [ laughter ] got a good wing span. >> lara: yeah. i would imagine that.
8:36 am
on a personal note, you're in the club of another little birdie leaving the nest, i hear. >> yeah. >> lara: how are you dealing with that? >> how are you doing with that? [ laughter ] >> lara: it's hard. >> yeah, yeah. it's a lot. you know? i mean, it's bitter sweet, right? it's how it's supposed to go. >> george: is this the first to go? >> no. we have a 26-year-old who has already been through that experience. we've been through it once. this is our second time going through it. >> robin: it goes so fast. doesn't it? >> it's just remarkable, like, time as you get older. >> lara: it just goes faster and faster. this might be the fastest summer on record. you can all agree, right? >> yeah. i know. >> lara: we wish you the best. >> george: thanks for coming in. >> thanks for having me. >> lara: so good to see you. >> good luck with everything. >> lara: as with you. >> george: it premieres globally august 9th. coming up new book about

8:40 am
good morning to you, robert. >> hi, lara. how are you? >> lara: i'm very well. nice to see you. thank you for being with us on "good morning america." this book has a lot of people talking because she's so loved. she is just so loved. what is it about her that has us all to captivated? >> well, i think actually she was a bit of an enigma before to a lot of people. they're trying to spell her life story from when she was a little kid. all the way through. she's just a very warm and likable person. that's what comes across in the book. she's somebody who is also smart and resilient, too. with what's happened with this, her illness, and we all wish her the best, of course. it's made a lot of people realize just how important she is to the monarchy and the future of the royal family going forward. she wasn't born into royalty. she went to work on a red double decker bus in london. she's somebody who can connect with the people.
8:41 am
it's very important now for the royal family going forward. >> lara: absolutely. you said a couple things there that really struck me. the first is that she was not born into a royal family. we forget that because she's so poised. she's also so resilient. as we watch her going through this deeply personal battle with her illness. what have you learned about that? about how she's doing. about when she might -- when we might see her again in public more? >> well, i think we will see a bit more from her in the fall. we can't know exactly what's wrong, in terms of how she's going. we've had a few glimpses of seeing her in public. one at wimbeldon, of course, where she was in front of the world media there. also the king's official birthday. she looked terrific at both. we mustn't -- we've got to realize it takes a lot out of you when you're having this treatment. everything has to be on a daily
8:42 am
basis. what comes across in the book is how much her family really means to her. she's going to spend a lot more time with her children, young family. she'll eventually get back into official duties. she will be guided by herself and the way that she feels as to when she's appearing in public. >> lara: she's shown that. she is her own woman. family, of course, her number one priority. she's shown that time and again. she and prince william now married 13 years. would you say, robert, after all of your research and all of your time studying the royal, would you say that she's the glue in the royal family? >> yeah, lara, she really is at the moment. her relationship with the king is very strong. they both share this moment when they were being treated for cancer. but the fact is i think that he sees her as the daughter that he never had. he's had happy moments. when he's had moments of
8:43 am
friction with his sons, she can solve the problem. she rises above the noise, the drama. and i think that anybody can tell you that's been living with an illness like this, or being treated, you don't do drama any more. you just forget about that. you live your life day to day. that's something she's experienced. when william heard his father and wife were both gonna be diagnosed, he was pretty crestfallen. both have helped him rise to the occasion. i think you're seeing somebody i think who's shown a real stoic and strong personality, prince william, in all that he's been dealing with. >> lara: she doesn't do drama. but there was drama in the early days of their relationship. your book has a lot of juicy revelations. one is about a breakup on the phone? >> yeah, i think that that -- william soon regretted it, soon as he put down the phone, that he had done that.
8:44 am
at the time he was fairly young, mid 20s. she was, too. they probably were the right couple at the wrong time. he felt he didn't really want to get married at that time. but i think soon after when she was seen out enjoying herself, enjoying dates and enjoying life and he was stuck in an army barracks he soon realized he'd made a big error and had to woo her back. >> lara: he sure did. he sure did. thank you so much, robert. always so great to talk to you. the new book, katherine princess of wales hits bookstores next week. so many people looking forward to that, so we thank you for your time. now back to ginger. >> ginger: thank you very much, lara. we're going to look at the severe thunderstorm damage in putnam county, tennessee. 60 mile per hour winds can take those trees into homes. we're going to see more of that, but anybody that doesn't have power from all the storms yesterday gonna heat up. we could see records for the next couple days in nashville. there's heat alerts from washington state over to new jersey and then back into the center of the nation. that heat just sticks around and it has been here. think about how many days i have
8:45 am
shown you the excessive heat warnings. nashville will feel close to 107 plus for the next three days. let's get a check closer to ho >> rebecca: coming up the bookcase with kate and charlie gibson. they show us how the king of popups robert sabuda, brings his
8:46 am
8:47 am
it's piled high with tender beef that's slow cooked and smothered in tangy memphis style barbecue sauce. it's no fuss, no muss. just tons of flavor. the best barbecue beef is only a togo's. try one today. >> rebecca: we are back with kate and charlie gibson. they host the bookcase podcast. they just spoke with author robert sabuda considered to be the pioneer of popup books. about how he turns so many blank paeupbls into works of art and stories that ignite our imagination. >> when we started the podcast
8:48 am
two years ago -- remind me what is it again? >> it is the bookcase with kate and charlie. and that is a shameless plug. >> we knew we were going to be limited to just having audio, but we wanted to be able to show things, too, on occasion. >> so we have appearances every year on "good morning america" where we can introduce a visual element. >> that brings us to one of our favorite authors/artists/paper engineer, robert sabuda. now, if you don't have a robert sabuda in your bookcase, then your bookcase is not complete. >> the robert sabuda popup books, there's nothing comparable to what he's able to do. this is from his book "alice in wonderland." my favorite is this, the cards. >> this is the "wizard of oz." this is the twister. it really twists. how did he do that? >> to get an answer to that question, we visited robert's farm in upstate new york. you may recognize it from his horse barn.
8:49 am
inside is robert's studio. for somebody who is so often published, i'm struck at how small your studio is. [ laughter ] >> the magic can happen in small spaces. >> big ideas come to life with a stack of paper and an exacto knife. >> you have no idea how many of these i used. >> it made him the pioneer of popup books. >> i think of books like little worlds. i wanted little worlds to come alive and open up in a completely full 3d-way. >> when i open this and i see this, what reaction do you want from me? >> we call this the wow reaction. we live in a very fractured world of young people's time. if you can get that time with a book, you're winning. >> from fairy tale classics like "beauty and the beast" to sharks, dinosaurs, even holiday themes, robert's books have sold millions of copies worldwide. >> wow!
8:50 am
this is cool. >> each one designed to help children's imaginations soar. >> roar! >> your books are really very much 360-degree experiences. was that a goal of yours? >> the magician hides his secrets. i wanted you to be able to turn them all around. it doesn't have to so much pop up, but pop shut. >> it has to do it again and again. >> and again. >> robert's own story began at 8 years old with that wizard of oz twister. >> what did you put in it? what elements did it have? >> i did not push it as far as this. [ laughter ] i did not do this. in fact, i couldn't get the tornado to spin when i made that little popup and so i nearly gave up. i guess the kernel stayed in my mind. >> it's so picture based. it is so visual. but you also have to include copy. how do you get in the limited amount the whole story, for instance, of alice in
8:51 am
wonderland. >> that's tricky. lot of popup books are for reluctant readers. they may be hesitant to read to others or read out loud. so the editing is taken into consideration for the words, to keep it simple for them, keep it short, so they don't feel overwhelmed by an entire book. >> his intricate process starts with a basic black and white prototype. >> so to get from here, i like to start small. so i'll start very small. no color, no art, nothing at it. i just want the basic movement of what i want the finished popup to be. so after i get this going, i'll say to myself, okay. now let's make it a little bit bigger until i'm very satisfied with this. it will go to a finish, we'll get more toward the finish. again, just in white. i have to make sure everything is working properly. >> from there it goes to a manufacturer who will mass produce the book.
8:52 am
>> do you have to show them how each piece will go together? >> i am happy to say i do not do that because they're such professionals. >> robert isn't interested in keeping his designs proprietary information. >> you are a teacher as welsh right? you teach people how to do this. >> yes. i decided early on that if anybody came to me, i would say, yes, join in. i'll show you how to do it. come work in my
