[laughter] charlie: and fun. once we humiliate you, we're then going to replay it -- dye bye the next day. charlie: -- further humiliation. guy: you have to do it and live through it and then you have to watch yourself doing it the next day. rachel: well, somebody who is zumbaing through the election -- charlie: good transition -- rachel: -- is donald trump. he's got the moves. guy: we love zumba. rachel: he probably would just do this. learning he's busy.

he's got all these world leaders clamoring to meet him at mar-a-lago, and the latest was giorgia meloni who appeared there with donald trump at the white house. she's an important leader in europe. and she definitely wanted to be -- she's met with elon musk many italy. i've seen that before, but now she's at mar-a-lago -- charlie: and they met again at notre dame for the opening of the cathedral. rachel: elon musk -- charlie: yeah. rachel: some people thought there was a little bit of love, some -- with elon and meloney. charlie: and it looked like president-elect trump was playing match maker a little bit. rachel: oh, was he? really? i love this! how did i miss that -- i only saw video of meloni and elon musk together in italy, and i was, like, there's a connection. charlie: yeah. it looked like sparks were

flying. guy: you're take your match making to international levels now, heads of state -- [laughter] major business titan it is. the thing that's interesting about this is mar hag go has become almost -- mar-a-lago has become almost like this de facto white house over the last couple of weeks where you have these foreign dignitaries and leaders showing up to talk to the person who in some ways feels like is are already president. how had the president of argentina, the prime minister of canada and now the prime minister of lit -- italy as well. trump and his team setting the table for a new administration with days to go until he's actually inaugurated. charlie: it's the white house in exile just waiting to come back. and you know my if favorite thing about trump serving two terms at two different points? you know the little breakfast mats you get for your kids so that they can remember all the presidents? rachel: oh, sure. charlie: donald trump's face is going to be on that twice --

guy: of course you would think of that. you're going to buy one for yourself, aren't you? you're going to have a romantic -- charlie: are you kidding me in i'm going to buy, like, dozens of them. guy: for yourself. charlie: well, for me, but i'm going to give it to my grandchildren, to all of their friends. rachel: do you know what else you're going to have to buy with your kids? perhaps a new map of the united states -- charlie: with the great state of canada and if greenland. rachel: that's right. listen, this is what donald trump tweeted out or posted on x back on december 22nd. he said for purposes of national security and freedom throughout the world, the united states of america feels that the ownership and control of greenland is an absolute necessity. meanwhile, greenland's prime minister, his name is -- [inaudible] is that a how you say it? rachel: i don't know. guy: i'm going to be the one person on the couch not to attempt.

let's just call him the prime minister. rachel: this is what he said. the opportunity for independence has been adopted through the provisions of the self-government act thereby creating a legal basis for how independence can be achieved, a draft constitution for our country has also been prepared. work has already begun with regard to creating the framework for greenland as an independent state within the possibilities and provisions of the self-government act. so donald trump sends out this tweet at the same time green lan has been talking about independence if from denmark. and one of the things that they've done to sort of push this forward is to put in an airport so that you can come correctly to green lan without having to pass through -- greenland without having to pass through the denmark. they've done that part. prime minister said, sorry, we don't want to be part of the united states with. and if what is really behind this with donald trump? charlie: the important point there is that even they are not satisfied with being governed by denmark, which is kind of an important thing. rachel: yeah. charlie: i don't know 'em.

rachel: do we want greenland -- guy if bye i'm not really sure, and this is a great question for your next interview with trump. i'm not sure it's necessarily about u.s. sovereignty over greenland, but i think u.s. influence in the arctic is extremely important. this is strategy. this is major, high-level, geopolitical strategy. you look at what our enemies are up to, look at the chinese, look at the russians together, that alliance or axis of the chinese and the russians, they are really aggressive in the arctic. and the free world has to, like, wake up and pay a lot of attention to that. and i think that's what trump is getting at here, saying, hey, we would like to have more influence on this land mass. rachel: yeah. charlie: and who do you think can defend greenland from russia or china, more importantly, better? the danes? or america? rachel: america. phi guy if the danes want to make the case for themselves, then they can put their money where their mouth is, right? in and we can encourage people

in the west to step up on defense and military spending and that sort of thing, all the better, to help share the weight, share the burden. rachel: yeah. that's interesting. similar to what he was doing in the panama canal if -- can. guy: 100%. rachel: -- saying, hey, you've got to choose whether your ally is china or the united states. so he's making very interesting moves ahead of his inauguration. guy: so we know that that there'll be a very new team in place at the white house very soon. a member of the outgoing team is karine jean-pierre, the press secretary for president biden. she posted this on social media -- charlie's beside himself already. [laughter] here's to the best team in the business. i couldn't do do it without you. sort of wonder how she would be without them. rachel: wow. charlie: exactly are. no, she couldn't. guy: and, look, in fairness, when you're doing a tough job, and she has one, and you have that camaraderie, you want to pay tribute to the people you work with. but this sort of has the same vibe as someone on the chicago

white sox putting out a team photo and and being, like, what an amazing group -- they lost 121 games in chicago this past season. that's the baseball equivalent of this press if shop. i understand that president biden didn't give them much to work with, right? it's very hard to speak on his behalf and defend him. but with all respect, she is uniquely bad at this job. charlie: and she has the entire press corps almost exclusively behind her. they're doing her work for her, and she still is a complete disaster. rachel: that's why i thought mollie hemingway had one with of the best tweets out there on this. she said there is not an easier job in the universe than being press take -- secretary for a democrats and yet somehow y'all still failed. [laughter] so let's look, let's get a little bit of a lookback at some of the highlights -- phi guy do we have to? rachel: who some people call binder, karine jean-pierre.

>> title 432 the is going to be lifted -- 42 -- yes, it will, but we are going the move to title viii. the border is not open. enter is there any possibility that the president would end up pardoning his son? >> no. i just said no. i just answered. go ahead. instead of republicans, you know, focusing on the president's performance in office and what he's been able to accomplish, his actual record, they do these cheap fakes. >> is there a real alarm happening behind the scenes that the president is simply too old to stick around another four years? >> no, there's no alarm happening behind the scenes. i would put the president's stamina, the president's wisdom, ability to to get this done on behalf of the american people against anyone. rachel: well -- guy: she did say at one point as well that she and some of the staffers just could scarcely keep up with joe biden -- [laughter] his pace and his energy. and it's justing, like, i think

laughing, unfortunately, is the right response, right? it's a joke. it was gaslighting at the time. cheap a fakes. one of the creepiest things that's happened in our politics in the last year was karine jean-pierre if spew if being out that word cheap fakes which no one had heard before, and then most of the mainstream media picking it up overnight through osmosis. within hours, oh, this is a thing we say now and, obvious, it wasn't cheap, it wasn't fake. it was real, and the lie she told to our colleague, mark meredith, about the pardon, for example, it's just one greatest hit after another from this crew starring in many cases her because he, the principal, rarely spoke. charlie: and sadly, it proves you can tell any lie. you can just tell it, keep telling it and keep telling it, there's a portion of the people that believe it, and they fall in line. and then we wind up, you know, months, years later, oh, it turns out all the speculation about his mental incapacity --

rachel: all it took was an op-ed from george championny, and then they all switched over. it's crazy. all right. well, we're going to turn to some of your headlines starting with a fox news alert. a vigil being held last night for the victims of the or horrific new year's day terror attack as all 14 have now been identified. one of those 14 is the stepson of prince william's childhood nanny. that's so interesting. the prince reacting over the weekend saying he's, quote,, shocked and saddened and the royal family is offering prayers to all who are impacted by the attacks. president biden will reportedly be delivering two major speeches, the first expected to focus on foreign policy and his plan for the next sunday -- is planned for next sunday when the president returns from his trip to italy. his farewell address is also expected to happen. the brightness of your phone could be bad for your health.

a new study finds scrolling for too long could leave people at higher risk of severe migraines. experts advising people who are frequently on their phone to experiment with the brightness of their screens expect if text size while also saying you should monitor your screen time and take regular breaks away from your device. those are your headlines. people also buy those blue screen gases -- glasses that you can get online. supposedly, that's supposed to protect you from that light. who knows? guy: i'm so bad about the screen time. and my phone tells me, i just ignore if it. i don't want to know. charlie: i've turned it off so it can't tell me. and, actually, i don't spend that -- well, yeah, i do. rachel: i want to talk to you about this new article that came out. it's so a fascinating. it's data that reveals how tinder has replaced traditional romance. so this is how, this is tracking

how people are meeting each other versus how they met each other in the past romantically speaking. so in, between 1960-1964, 34% of people, almost 35%, met through friends. 28 through family. and in 2004-14 that dropped to 26% by friends, apparently no family, and online, 21%. then in 2022, look at this shift, almost 60% by online meeting. so that's fascinating. charlie: yeah. and they have, like, a fever chart or whatever, a graph that you can look literally year by year and see competing ways that people meet. and it is shocking how quickly the normal way of meeting people drops off and the online thing explodes. guy: it's not normal anymore. what you call normal is

abnormal. charlie: and i understand that. i understand if you are looking to meet somebody, you will try anything, and that's great. rachel: oh, no. charlie: but the problem with it is if it completely destroys your ability to walk up to a girl in a bar and say, hey, how's it going, you know, that'n important -- rachel: that's what's happening. and you can see this in the numbers. i do think that online dating in some cases is necessary. but the fact that it's replaced it on this level, you're seeing people just get lazy about it. they can just scroll in their sweats on their couch, and they don't have to get out there and try. and as you said, push themselves, especially young mea shower, put some nice clothes on. rachel: look at this, this is how many men were married in their 30s in the 1980s. so 50% of men were married in the 1980s who were under 30. now 63% of men under 30 describe themselves as single.

and i think the other stat, you guys, we can't ignore -- guy: people are getting married later, i think that's definitely true. i got married in my 30s. but one of the arguments you would make, and i'd say their argument, is it's probably beneficial to a lot of people to get married if earlier, start having kids earlier when it's easier to do so. rachel: when you're fertile. yeah. [laughter] guy: that would be your high advice, right? rachel: yeah, i mean, listen, my main add rice is young people need to prioritize their love life. there's a lot of emphasis on getting so, you know, focused on your career and people tend to the forget or put off their love life. and nothing is going to make you happier than finding that person for the rest of your life. of so that should be a very top priority. charlie: and nothing is healthier than, you know, you check each other too. rachel: that's absolutely right. and you see the other -- charlie: when i get fat, my wife is, like, you're fat.

rachel: that's important. guy: do more zumba. rachel: men who are married are healthier, actually, for that exact reason, they have wives on their case about it, help them get healthier. they also make more money. it seems counterintuitive. you'd think i'm single, i have more time the work out -- charlie: yeah. because the pressure's good. rachel: right. and then they make more money because they have the pressure to support a family. guy: so a lot of people watching right now nod being along, some people may be saying we met online, it's really a great experience. nothing wrong with it. question is how did you meet your spouse or significant other? if send us an e-mail, friends@foxnews.com. we would love to know. rachel: again, i'm not if anti-meeting online, i think you got that do what you gotta do, but in person is always better -- guy: because people look different -- charlie: and if you're going to do it online, take a shower, put some nice clothes on and do it, like, in a, like, you know, bring your best game.

rachel: let's bring back courtship in 2025. how about that? charlie: there you go. still ahead, the trump administration on a mission if to make america healthy again. why one top chef says r rfk jr. is the only one able to put america's food system on notice. ♪ if. ♪ if ♪ ♪ (♪) (♪) bounce back fast from heartburn with tums gummy bites, and love food back.

charlie: a military appeals court reruling defense secretary lloyd austin cannot if rescind the the plea deals of suspects responsible for the 9/11 attacks. those plea deals would have them plead guilty in exchange for being spared the possibility of the death penalty. here to discuss is president of 9/11 if justice whose father died on 9/11, brett eagleson. brett, thank you for joining us. just real quick, so your father, bruce, was killed in the trade centers on 9/11 when you were 15, as i recall? >> that's right, yeah. thank you for having me this morning. charlie: it's good to see you with. now, you know, on in this this story it's kind of amazing, you know, i would argue that the

only reason that secretary austin decided to rescind this plea deal in the first place was because the administration if got caught out on it, and you and others exposed them, and then they kind of ran around trying to undo it. is that a fair assessment? >> that's right. it was a politically motivated decision to rescind it. we think that they knew all along that there was no way to do it, but mt. heat of the election -- mt. in the heat of the election in the leadup to november, they were utterly called out on the carpet for a horrific decision. look, i haven't heard from a single 9/11 family member that thinks this is a good idea. and the here is that everything about -- the reality here is that everything about 9/11, this 23 the-year national night if mare that we've had to -- nightmare that we've had to con tend with has been a hour terrific -- horrific travesty. working with saudi arabia to cover up their role to the time

we sent a 5,000 or 6,000 of our troops to be slaughtered in iraq for no reason to the very fact that congress just denied the benefits for the first responders to now this, to where we're giving these terrorists sweetheart, cupcake deals. we've been kicked in the gut time and time again, and we are sick of it. and we are is hopeful that we finally have a president who's going to do the right thing here. and, you know, one thing i want to point out is that on 9/11 this year when vp harris and biden sat behind the red rope at the 9/11 world trade center memorial, president trump was in a a new york city firehouse. he was there with me. and i got a chance to talk to him. and we said to him, mr. president, you were right in 2016 when you said it was saudi arabia that knocked down those towers. he said it on this very show, on

"fox & friends." we said, mr. president, we had to get the information not from the u.s. government about saudi arabia's role, we had to get it from the british government. we said, mr. president, the same people who tried to the take you down in the russia, russia, russia, bob mueller and the deep state of this country, are the same people who have blocked justice for us. they're the same people who came up with these horrible plea deals. would you do something to help us. and he committed to us that day in a new york city if firehouse on 9/11 that if he were elected president, he was going to do the right thing. he said he could deal with saudi arabia, and he was going to bring us final justice and closure. and we're going to hold him to account on that, and we're very hopeful. this is a new start for america. we have a republican-controlled congress, we have a president who puts america first, so let's hope that he really, truly does that. charlie: i think you just gave one of the the best encapsulations that our government has made since 9/11, and i'm grateful to you for that. i'm also grateful to you for

keeping strong and keep toking on the government and exposing all of this. thank you, brett eagleson. >> absolutely. thank you. charlie: fox weather alert, a monstrous winter storm threatens nearly 60 million across 27 the states. the heavy snow, brutal wind and shrubbing ice that could be headed your way. plus, critics blasting biden for awarding far-left donor george soros and hillary clinton with the nation's high honor. leo terrell weighs in. something tells me he has something to say. unlock member perks from the palm of your hand. with every purchase, all members earn point toward mylowes's money. get free gifts to bring home, member deals to get more projects done and free standard shipping. start earning for free with mylowe's rewards today. sore throat got your tongue? mucinex instasoothe sore throat medicated drops, uniquely formulated for rapid relief that lasts and lasts. that's my babyyy! try our new sugar-free cough drops.

rachel: we're back with a fox fox weather alert. a monstrous winter storm dumping snow over the midwest as nearly 60 million people across 27 states face threats of heavy

snow, ice and freezing cold. s. let's turn now to our friend and chief meteorologist rick reichmuth for our fox weather forecast. rick, what do you have for us? rick: we haven't had a storm like this really in a couple of years for so many people. take a look at the maps. want to show you what we're talking about. it's a storm that's going to impact areas from kansas all the way towards the eastern seaboard, and it's really got its act going yesterday afternoon, into the overnight hours bringing ice already. now we have blizzard warnings in effect across much of kansas, missouri, nebraska, anywhere you see that orange there. it is going to be very windy with the snow, and it's going to be whiteout conditions. icing is going to be a big problem. where you see darker colors, that's potentially over an inch of ice. it's going to cause widespread power outages into kansas and missouri as well. we're going to watch for that. by the time we get in towards tonight, all of the storm will move towards the eastern seaboard. winter storm warnings in effect for west virginia, delmarva and

parts of southern jersey, and we will be seeing some spots here maybe over a foot of snow. we haven't seen snow like this in a few years. so between boston -- excuse me, baltimore, down towards d.c., that i-95 corridor is going to be a mess if starting your monday morning commute. guy, back to you inside. guy: rick, thanks very much. stay safe out there, everyone. stay warm. meanwhile, outrage growing in some quarters after president biden issued the presidential medal of freedom to, among others, hillary clinton and billionaire if george soros whose son son accepted the award on behalf of his dad. watch this. [cheers and applause] guy: a big standing o there for hillary clinton.

if george soros, the elder, has notoriously backed far-left candidates across the country especially at that d.a. position leading to so much of the crime that we've seen in our cities. soros is hinged to at least -- linked to at least $70 million in democratic contributions just from the last two elections alone. here to discuss is civil rights attorney and fox news contributor leo terrell. leo, good to see you this morning. let's start with soros are. i thought the democrats hated the influence of money and politics from billionaires. i guess there are exceptions and asterisks. >> you're right. and thanks for having me, guy. basically, what you saw yesterday was joe biden devaluing this medal of freedom. i mean, he handed it out like halloween candy. george soros did everything possible to destroy cities by basically financing soft-on-crime prosecutors. i hiv in california. look at oakland -- i live in

california. look at oakland, look at san francisco. the criminals love george soros. look at chicago. looked at new york. soft-on-crime prosecutors destroy law and order. they turn their backs on law enforcement, and that is the the goal of getting out this award, to destroy democrat cities? that's what george soros accomplishedded, guy. guy: you know, leo, i've heard some people point out maybe this award was already devalued. joe biden himself won it under the obama administration. you saw a big cheer in that room in the clip we just played for hillary clinton, former secretary of state, of course, former first lady. not necessarily a stunning choice all things considered. but what's your reaction to hillary, especially given some of things that she's said through the years, getting this award in. >> well, thank you for that question because i listened to the summary of her accomplishments, but they left out a few things. how about benghazi? how about the four americans, including the ambassador, that were murdered? and her failure to handle that

situation. how about her private server where she had classified documents in her custody, control and possession? how about the summary given by james comey regarding her reck less conduct? i didn't hear that this. and you often the medal which is the highest award given to a civilian? she called half of the country deplorables. just recently she called us a cult if you sport donald trump. that's the -- support support donald trump. that's the standard, guy, for a person to receive the highest civilian award? they have devalued it, they have made it worthless, and if joe biden is the last person given his track record for the last four years to give out this award and stand there representing the best expect brightest of america. guy: you mentioned that classified material on her e-mail server notorious toly, she lied about it incessantly. the guy who put the medal around her neck had classified material in his garage. so the blind leading the blind. lionel messi, one of the best

soccer player froms ever, he was given this award although he didn't hoe up to receive it and apparently, reportedly, didn't send anyone on his behalf to take it. that's kind of interesting, isn't it? the. >> i think so. and it also probably sends a message. like i said, again, i mean, he's handing these awards out, guy, like candy. and, basically, the highest award given to an american or a civilian for doing the best and the brightest for this country? if soros and hillary clinton? i think messi's message was very clear, he didn't want to be a part of this. guy: all right, leo terrell, thanks so much for your time this morning. appreciate it. >> thank you, guy. thank you very much. guy: now to this, america's food industry put on notice. donald trump, rfk jr., they say they're going to overhaul the system if they can. our next guest wants the talk about why top chefs like himself support this overall mission to make america healthy again.

producers and processers, and they're distributing food that's really repackaged. it's the same junk that's repackaged. it's not as nutritious, the vegetables aren't as good. but then the meat, the poultry, the proteins is all imported or many in and of itself full of chemicals. 80% of the seafood we're getting now is imported. we've got such an amazing bounty of fresh seafood here in the united states, and yet we can't access any of it. we distribute it overseas. but from the perspective of information on chemicals, restaurants get these rebates and information programs jammed down their treat -- throats, and most of it is propaganda paid for by one of these two or three manufacturers, and the products we're offered to sell to consumers is the same junk that's on the shelves or as the government with hikes to call it, fun food, that are on the grocery store shelves. rachel: chef, i love you pulling back the curtain on that and letting you know what happens in the food industry. fascinating. you say that rfk can make three

changes, this is the advice you would give him, the three changes he could make to improve if our food quality in our food system. why don't you walk us through those three changes that you think. i've put them up on the screen there, but maybe you can expand on them more. >> definitely. number one, it's about the information. so i don't think the government should be banning things or telling everyone what they should or shouldn't eat, especially the federal government. they need to get out of that game of information, because that information is captured, right? so a lot of that money that's provided from the private corporations or the big corporations to the advisory boards and then to the federal government to scram down things like the the food pyramid to us, that's money, right in follow the money. that's not good information. get them out of the information game and, if anything, let's just allow objective information to flow through freely to the consumer so they can make the decisions themselves. government should not be involved in making the decisions for what we eat. we also need to deregulate certain industries so these small and medium-sized farmers

can produce and provide food for our customers. that's the key right there. but the biggest picture here and then the chemicals, obviously. we need to assess the chemicals in our food system because as the government has gotten bigger through the f if da and ultimately the hhs, we've gotten sicker. and we rook at the chemicals in our food and say, oh, my gosh, these aren'ting with told around the world -- aren't being sold around the world. so get those out. but the government should not be involved in any of this, that's the key. we've not to downsize it. rachel: downsize it, go more local, save our local fisheries, save our small farms and ranches. the article's really good. it's in the federalist. people should read it if they care about this subject, and we all should because health care is the largest percentage of our federal budget. and so if we have healthy food, we'll get healthy people, and we'll be able to lower our health care costs and just live better lives and eat better food, chef. thanks for joining us. we hope to have you back.

this is such an important topic and such an important opportunity for this administration to really get us out of this rut that we're in when it comes to our food supply and our food system. chef gruel, you're awesome. thanks for joining us. >> thank you. guy: so i've got some headlines. i will just plug chef gruel, he's so good on exert. great x follow if you're -- on twitter. the israeli military reportedly on high alert for, quote, extreme iranian steps against their country in the coming days. it comes as violence and the unrest in that region continues especially in lebanon and syria, adding to pressure on iran's regime. the iranians also reportedly concerned for their future ahead of president-elect trump's inauguration later this month as well they should be. the u.s. chamber of commerce if now joining up with a top oil group to sue the state of vermont over a law requiring companies to pay for what they call climate change damage. the law was passed last year

[laughter] i am ready for an office makeover. this was way too big of a task for me to handle alone, so we gavialson from -- allison to reorganize and feminize my office. oh, my goodness. i cannot believe how this looks. it really is amazing. honestly, every time i walk in, i'm happy. [laughter] guy: allison wall is back to show us some decluttering major. health talk the -- let's talk about the infamous junk drawer. >> everybody's got one, and the thing the about clutter is it's the very overwhelming. i always tell my clients, start small. literally. with a drawer. don't go to the closet first and, certainly, don't pick a whole room because it takes somehow a year to get through an entire house. so we're starting with drawer. there are a few rules when you start to declutter. the first thing is that you have to take everything out.

so we're going to start taking everything out. and because of timing, i've already measured the drawer. so i bought these little bins. you don't have to spend much. i happen to know that this fits right inside. guy: just like a container store? >> everywhere. rachel: amazon -- >> amazon, target. you've already passed the test. [inaudible conversations] all the sharpies and pens. they just find a little home. everything needs a home. that's another rule. okay? why to do we have three tape measures? is that necessary? charlie: yes. >> not. we only need one. [laughter] guy: wrong answer. charlie: so which one -- all right. >> i like the pink one. what else do we have? rachel: we have these paper clips. >> clips? okay, let's put them in there. guy: a big part of it is throwing stuff out, right? >> you have to put -- you can't craft the life you want unless you get rid of everything you don't. rachel: oh, that's deep. that's deep.

charlie: very deep. >> so many people collect stuff, and a lot of times it's because somebody gave it to them, so there's that guilt. rachel: my mom always said, i might need it. >> right. but with, you know, if you have multiples of things, chances are you don't. or if you haven't used it in a a year, get rid of it. you're probably not going to use it. really, do we all -- do any of us -- charlie: you would not recognize my house. we keep things for generations. >> one stapler? i don't think so. rachel: part of it is the just getting the right container thes to put things in so they can be organized. >> correct. and it's important to measure your space first. also i didn't do do this, but wean things out. it's amazing -- charlie: but, what, how can you trust someone who winds up with a junk drawer like that, someone like rachel -- the. [laughter] to keep it organized after you leave? >> okay. i'm so glad you asked me, because the truth is every

single bit of this requires maintenance. you have to stay on top of it. charlie: you're like a therapist who can never go away. [laughter] once you get hired -- guy: job security. >> well, my job is actually to empower you to do it. charlie: i don't think there's -- the -- >> yes. let me show you a few of my favorite -- rachel: we have two seconds. >> once everything is beautiful and contained the, then label it. if you just label it, everybody knows -- rachel: where to put it. >> yes. and this is another one of my favorite things. this is a drawer divider. look, just stick it in and automatically you have a better looking space -- guy: it's therapeutic. charlie: i feel better already. >> i'm so glad. thank you for having me. rachel: allison will make everyone's life better. >> chaos stands for can't have anyone over -- [laughter] rachel: i love it. your web site? >> rocket to mars organizing. rachel: rocket to mars
