but first, one man's search.for twenty years. something is wrong with our healthcare system and it needs to be fixed. then, it was about health reform and getting eight million kids covered. now, it's about stopping republicans from repealing obamacare, and taking on insurance companies to bring down drug prices. i'm not going to let any family be deprived of healthcare. i'm not going to let the republicans rip up obamacare and throw it away.

>> osgood: when someone is record missing there's no guarantee they will ever be found. much depends on the determination of the people mind the search. our cover story is reported by susan spencer of "48 hours." >> tampa bay times writer andrew meacham is in the storytelling business. but one story from his own past haunts him. that of his childhood friend, stuart fletcher currin. when did you first meet him? >> in the fifth grade. he wasn't going to be a jock. he wasn't going to be a movie star but he could be the smartest kid in the room. >> fletcher's early brilliance seemed to promise a bright future. >> that's him.

>> shortly after that picture of taken his behavior became increasingly strange. >> i remember hearing about fletcher believing that the fbi, law enforcement were attacking him, with high intensity beams of magnetic light. his mother finally got him to see a psychiatrist. and he accused the psychiatrist of being in on the plot. >> diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, fletcher began leading a transient life. he fell out with his family then seemed to fall off the earth. the last time you actually saw him was when? >> late august 1999. i had a sense that the future was shifting and not in a good way. >> the last time anyone saw

sleeping on this roadside bench in seminole, florida, at the time he was 44. >> and to be here and just disappear is not something anybody expected. >> meacham admits that finding fletcher soon became an obsession. >> it took years. i looked for people on the street. >> you'd see somebody on the streets say, i wonder if that could be flipper? >> yes. somebody with brown hair. >> he even worked with a detective. >> not a trace no. contact with law enforcement. not showing up as receiving any benefits. no one's heard from him. how does somebody fall through the cracks like this? >> sadly it's not all that hard. in this country at any given moment there are roughly 84,000 people classified as missing.

every single empty seat here at the cavernous at&t stadium in lar ring ton, texas, home of the dallas cowboys. >> there is no such thick as disposable person. everyone of these people matters. >> b.j. is a director at namus, the national missing and uni'd person system. based at the university of north texas health science center in fort worth. there's something about seeing the picture that makes it different. >> it makes it real. >> namus is the only federally funded database of the missing and unidentified open to the public. >> missing persons run the gamut from your stranger abducted child is your run away juvenile to your adult who goes missing and we fear that foul play has occurred. >> like fletcher, adults do disappear but laws are more geared towards finding kids. >> there is a federal mandate

law enforcement agency will immediately take a report from family, there is not a federal requirement related to missing adults. >> which may be why no missing persons report ever was filed for fletcher. this is astonishing, you've been through all of this, basically you still until now have no answers. >> exactly. >> out of other options, andrew meacham scoured the namus reports on unidentified remains. >> when you can't find him alive you have to start wondering if he's somewhere dead. >> he hit on namus case number 991145. an unidentified man found dead of heart attack on this bench five days after fletcher was last seen. and just five miles away. but meacham was unconvinced.

accompanying this entry on the namus database doesn't look an lot like him. >> he compared that image, an artist rendering of what the unidentified man looked like when alive to fletcher's state identification photo. he still wasn't sure. >> i think he was frustrated because he couldn't quite tell if that was his friend or not. >> bill heads up investigations for the medical examiner's office where the unidentified remains were housed. >> this here is all of our unidentified case files. >> the office is a high success rate in finding the missing. but in fletcher's case, there was little to work with. no fingerprints, no obvious way to get d.n.a. >> his friends and immediate family had all died and so obtaining d.n.a. from family members to compare to our unidentified person was not possible.

letter fletcher had written to him almost two decades ago. the days when people still licked envelopes. >> there is postmark. >> would it be possible to extract d.n.a. from saliva under the envelope's seal. >> i've never heard of making an identification using an envelope. >> i was expecting they would say it's too corroded, too old. >> but after weeks of work the d.n.a. team astonished everyone. >> they took and opened the flap cut out section of the seal and that's where they were able to extract d.n.a. from that. >> wow. all the d.n.a. they are using came out of this little one inch strip. >> that's it. >> from 20 years ago. >> yes. amazing. >> that is truly amazing. >> they had fletcher's d.n.a. but was it a match? whatever answer you get it's not

going to be good. >> that's right. but at least it's an answer. >> we talked to andrew meacham a day before he would find out. what does your heart tell you? >> my heart tells me -- i don't think it's him. >> you don't think it's him. >> no. straight on down, last door. >> the next day -- at's the envelope. >> in pell almost's office the long awaited news. >> based on that full profile from the envelope your search for fletcher is over. >> first came shock. then grief. but also relief.

away. weeks later on a warm morning in olivia, north carolina, he joined a small gathering to bury the remains. >> the lord shall preserve thy coming out from this time forward. even forever more. >> 16 years after stuart fletcher currin died alone and unnamed on a roadside bench, his childhood pal was able and last to say goodbye. you have turned out to be an amazing friend. >> i think i turned out just to be a friend. this is what friends do. you don't let each other just disappear and i'm sorry i waited

>> osgood: next. >> he turns on a terrific -- >> osgood: when army plays navy. today is the day. hellmann's and holiday leftovers become irresistibly creamy turkey casserole. real delicious hellmann's. bring out the hellmann's.

(all) no. that's why i'm reminding people if you had chickenpox then the shingles virus is already inside you. (all) oooh. who's had chickenpox? scoot over. and look that nasty rash can pop up anywhere and the pain can be even worse than it looks. talk to your doctor or pharmacist. about a vaccine that can help prevent shingles. >> osgood: now r now a page from our sunday morning almanac. 125 years ago today. the day army hosted navy at west point in their very first

navy beat army 44-0 that day. army came back the next year with 32-16 win. rivalry almost died an early death when both acadamies were forbidden to play anything but home games. but following an appeal by assistant secretary of the navy, theodore roosevelt the game was reinstated in 1899. just a few interruption it's been game on ever since. >> army makes its entrance. here comes the navy squad. >> osgood: in presuper bowl era army-navy was considered to be the game. usually played on neutral ground in philadelphia, the game has been magnet for presidents, harry truman was a frequent fan. john f. kennedy attended in 1962. in the period of mourning

next year, it was jacqueline kennedy who urged that the game go on. navy won 21-15. featuring very first instant replay a cbs sports innovation as it happened. we can't replay that replay for you now, it was erased long ago. after 115 games, navy currently leads the series with 59 wins to army's 49. there were seven ties. this year's game, number 116 is to be played saturday december 12th right here on cbs. instant replays and all.

>> osgood: our tale of the squirrel is just a thing for anyone tired of turkey

luke burbank serves it up. >> weekend cooking competitions are a pretty common sight south of the mason dixon line but there was something very uncommon about the one held on a recent saturday in bentonville, arkansas. the food itself. >> welcome to the 2015 world champion squirrel cook off. >> that's right, squirrel. whether you find them adorable or think of them as rats with cuter tails you probably never considered eating them. that is unless you're from the south. >> get to cookin'! >> don't have to promote that it's organic, grass fed, anything that have nature. it just is. this is tree to table. >> joe wilson is the guy behind the cook off, he says cooking squirrel is a tradition that goes back generations. >> it's extremely important that we hold on to the culture and the heritage of our community.

years ago to promote the sustainable use of wild game as a dinner, as a table fare. >> in the cook off, 36 colorfully named teamed had two hours to produce a dish and a side dish. all the squirrel being served had to be caught by the chefs themselves or their friends, since buying or selling wild game meat is actually illegal. contest favorites, brothers blaine and brandon estes have won the competition twice in its five year history. this year they were competing with squirrel sliders and a squirrel bisque. >> sounds like we know what we're talking about. >> don't usually hear those words in the same sentence. >> here is the thing about cooking squirrel, though. even if you're a two-time world champion you're going to get some pushback.

but even as kids she wouldn't cook squirrel. if you shoot it, you have to eat it. you have to cook it, too. >> that seems to be a big part of the messaging here. that this is an example of good animal stewardship of eating what you hunt even if it's a rodent. we've now arrived at the part of the story where we are legally obligated to ask the question on the minds of those still watching the program. how does squirrel taste? >> wonderful. >> is it seasoned. >> just plain boiled. >> that's good. >> my first taste of squirrel but not my last. i had agreed to serve as one of the contest judges. decision i was beginning to regret. 80% of the meat inside the dish should be squirrel. >> i'm allergic to squirrel is that a problem? >> once the judging was underway

dishes tasted really good. and showed amazing creativity. >> wow. look at the place mat like i'm in a moroccan restaurant. >> of course, 20 or so dishes later, i was the one starting to feel squirrely. as these iron chefs tested minot so iron stomach, there was one silver lining. >> this year we were pretty light on squirrel desserts. in the past we've had squirrel ice cream, squirrel brains with cream cheese and puff pay tree. >> i'm happy this was a light year for that. the dessert category can be fairly rough. >> the day's winning dish turned out to be squirrel empanadas. it seems fitting for a contest. that the winning dish was empanada, something that wasn't

yet couldn't have been more uniquely american. >> osgood: still to come. around the world with 88 keys.

of the town.'s called a rigged economy, and this is how it works. most new wealth flows to the top 1%. it's a system held in place by corrupt politics where wall street banks and billionaires buy elections. my campaign is powered by over a million small contributions, people like you who want to fight back. the truth is you can't change a corrupt system by taking its money. i'm bernie sanders. i approve this message.

>> osgood: david remnick, editor of "the new yorker." this morning he's talking with erin moriarty of "48 hours." >> i've never been the editor of anything. i did the whole newspaper on my kitchen table it came out twice a year. i don't think that really was adequate preparation. >> sings his high school days in new jersey, david remnick has come a long way. for 167 years he's been at the helm of the "new yorker" which marked it's 90th anniversary this year. >> sandy frazier's piece is ready with art. >> remnick is only the fifth editor of the weekly magazine and perhaps one of its most

influential. it's side r said that what he's thinking right now you'll be talking about next week. >> that looks fantastic. >> he personally chooses the magazine's artistic and topical covers. occasionally so controversial they spark an outcry. take remnick's satirical cover in july 2008, then presidential candidate barack obama seen wearing a turban and robes and fist bumping his wife. >> can i tell you how many people have said to me, davidf they wouldn't have known this was on the cover of "the new yorker" seen this cartoon been asked, which magazine has this on their cover almost everyone would have said neonazi magazine. >> oh, come on. >> i found such a question appalling just dumb. >> you couldn't consider that maybe you went a little too far? >> well, i think satire is often

if you're not going too far sometimes you're playing it awfully safe. >> did you lose any subscribers? considerable number? >> here is what happened. people call, cancel my subscription, my silent answer is, you cancel your own damn superscription. >> he seems less fire brand more good humored brainiac. >> a certain kind of street wise. i can't wait to -- >> the magazine seems to reflect his broad interests. news-breaking articles mixed with fiction. and of course, its legendary cartoons like this one about airport scanner that reveals perhaps too much. he's expanded the reach with a new radio show and nearly live event. >> i'm david remnick.

>> "the new yorker" festival which attracts news makers and celebrities like larry david. >> my mother wanted me to be a mailman. that was her dream. >> with the festival selling out and the magazine reaching younger readers on their electronic devices, remnick became the editor who could turn red ink to black in age when many magazines are struggling. >> i knew at some level that the impact that i could make was infinitely moref i could be a good editor of "the new yorker" than as a writer. i don't think i'm a terrible writer or journalist, i'm not bad. >> not bad indeed. remnick won the pulitzer prize in 1994 for his book "lennon's tomb." by any measure, he's led a writer's dream life. he wanted to be a newsman and started at the "washington

he did features, even covered sports. >> i covered whatever i was told to including hockey which i had to keep somebody on the phone to explain the game to me. i didn't know what the hell was going on. >> then his life was changed by two events. >> all of a sudden there was a job notice that went up to go to moscow and nobody really wanted to go because it's cold. >> he became the post's correspondent in moscow and he married esther fein a reporter at the "new york times." >> we literally got married in october of 1987 and to moscow. it was the beginning of our marriage. >> in 1992, after returning to the u.s., remnick was hired as a staff writer at "the new yorker" by the editor at that time, tina brown. why look at becoming the editor of the magazine. >> yes, darling, why?

tina brown suddenly decided to leave "the new yorker" and start another magazine called "talk." >> remnick a thoughtful writer was not the obvious choice that filled the heels of the more flamboyant tina brown. >> i used to tease him. i was sort of like joe torre coming after billy martin. >> a new yorker staff writer who has worked for four editors there says that remnick brought stability to the magazine when brown left. >> you know, that after a brilliant but very high pressure kind of leader, you want somebody who is equally authoritative but in a much more generous and easy going way. >> david's great gift is for identifying talent and using it and creating a circumstance which talented people feel happy. >> the baby-sitter can come early. >> the couple says their

household is also run with that same spirit of collaboration. >> we have a complicated family. we have two grown, healthy sons. we have 15-year-old daughter who as autism. and that, as any parent with special needs kid knows is an enormous challenge. it's not a mild case. so, we have to depend on each other in innumerable ways that i can't even begin to calculate. >> i would assume that most of the burden of that, the cities, the dealing with it, has been on your shoulders because his job only become more and more complicated over the years. >> the pragmatics of it is in my hands but stress is equally shared. >> the remnick, the worries at home have put the stress of work in perspective.

at the same time, you know what real suffering can be. the work is frustrating, it's complicated, it's difficult, but it's not shoveling coal, it's not suffering. >> does he read everything that goes in, every single week? >> as far as i know, every senn then goes in the magazine he passes his eyes over one point or another in the course of assembling it. >> recommend in this case not afraid to make tough calls. >> i remember in the week after 9/11, for instance, and david said, you know, i'm going to take all the cartoons out of the magazine which is something we had never done in our history. >> is that his decision? >> that was totally his decision. i thought that it was a mistake, because i thought our readers are looking to us for continuity. that turned out to be exactly the right thing to do and put together an extraordinary issue. >> as editor remnick brings a cool perspective to everything

but he is acutely aware of the responsibility he carries. having achieved all that he has, there's one title david remnick does not want. >> i know that you have told people you don't want to be the last editor of the magazine. >> i don't. why would i?

about dunkin' donuts k-cups are available here at the grocery store. and people seem to be really excited about it.

have a good one. new dunkin' donuts k-cup pods are here, available where you buy groceries. >> osgood: are we spending too much time looking at these? the question for contributor

paula poundstone. >> almost everyone in our country is addicted to electronics and riddled with denial. when i talk to people about it they get defensive they say it's not addiction just something they enjoy. really? i love to play ping-pong, i love to practice the drums, i love to tap dance, but i have never even once tried to figure out how to do any one of those things while driving in such a ways that the cops couldn't see. because i am not addicted to those activities i just enjoy them. there's a huge difference. screen devices wreak havoc with the brain's frontal lobe, diagnosis of adhd have taken a steep rise. yet even when presented with that information parents often won't hear of protecting their kids from the harmful effects of screen devices. kids love 'em, they say. yes, they do. some kids would love heroin if we gave it to them. i'm told after initial vomiting stage it can be a hoot.

we didn't know this when we first brought these shiny new toys. now we do know. still adults aren't doing anything about it y.? because we're addicted. addiction hampers judgment, you see it. everywhere you look people are staring at their flat things. we're terrified of being bored, no one drifts or wonders. if robert frost had lived today he would have written, whose woods are these i think i'll google it. screens are tearing away our real connections, ads for family cars shows every family member on a different device. restaurants are putting tablets on their tables. these restaurants claim they're providing tablets just to make ordering easier. gee, if saying, may i please have chicken fingers is too difficult, wouldn't we want to work on that. the tech industry has profited from the every child must have a laptop in the classroom push, but education hasn't. research shows that the brain retains information better read from paper than from a screen.

and students who take notes by hand are more successful on tests than those who type those on a computer yet art, music, sports, play, healthy meals and green space, things we know help the developing brain are on the chopping block of school districts' budgets annually. even knowing this at the suggestion that we get screen devices out of our classrooms and away from our children children, people gasp, but they will need them for the world of the future. our children will need fully functioning brains for the world of the future. let's put that first. >> you can't stop us all. >> osgood: ahead.

profile. >> osgood: carey mulligan played daisy buchanan opposite leonardo dicaprio in "the great gatsby" which is just the way she likes it. ben tracy has our sunday profile. >> is all of this made entirely from your own imagination? >> whether she is dancing with the great gatsby. >> you have no idea how boring everything was before i met you. >> being seduced by a con man. >> you can't stop us all. >> or fighting for equal rights. the one thing carey mulligan does not want to you see on screen is carey mulligan. >> we live in a time where so many people seem so desperate to be famous.

>> growing up i wanted to be an actress, i wanted to pretend to be other people for people to believe that i was other people. i don't want people to watch me on screen and think about who i'm married to or where i live or what restaurant they see me coming out of i want to struck people. i think they shouldn't know a lot about you nor do they need to. >> the hollywood reporter just declared mulligan one of the eight great actresses working today. despite that she is still one of the least recognizable. you change your look quite a bit is that part of it? >> yeah. if i see look identical from film to film i find that harder to buy. >> she's transformed herself once again in her latest film, "suffragette." she plays a woman who loses custody of her son in violent

>> said they're making a film about suffragette. cool. mary poppins and drinking tea. then i read the script, it just completely changed everything. i was just so shocked. >> we burn things. only language many listen to. you betrayed us, nothing else left. >> so shocking that we had never told the story. but sort of shocking to remember that this is still the case with so many women now. 62 million girls in the world can't to go school. one in three women experience sexual violence. so it never felt like we were making historical drama. it felt like we were sort of saluting these women for the sacrifices that they made but also trying to look at where we are now. and bring it back around to the modern day. >> this also happens at a time

where there is this discussion about the wage disparity in hollywood between actors and actresses. >> there's a wage gap in most jobs, in most positions i think, it particularly right in hollywood. it has been for a long time. >> it is my intention to astonish you all. >> it's no coincidence that her desire to play strong female characters. >> i'm paralyzed with happiness. >> has led to many film projects adapted from classic works of literature. >> they just the strongest roles. there's a reason that great literature is adapted time and time again it has these brilliant characters. >> mulligan knows her film choices may have given her a certain reputation. are you a serious person? >> no.

i think i'm drawn to serious material because i find it difficult and that's exciting and challenging. but i'm not a serious person in my own life. and i don't do serious things. in my own -- i don't go home and read nietzsche and i'm pretty laxed. the material that i'm drawn to is often quite serious. >> the acting bug bit her early. she was born in london from about the age of six, mulligan was in every school play that would have her. and her first love is still the stage. >> the first time i was here was when i was 14 years old it. >> was during trip to new york as a teenager that she realized exactly what she was going to be when she grew up. >> i saw kevin bay son doing one-man show. i can't remember what it was about. >> just a few years later she would find herself back on

broadway. only this time starring as nina in checkov's "the seagull." >> there's a line where my charactera young actress she wants to be on stage, everyone needs the stage she looks out across this lake says, i'm dreaming. i remember the first night when i came on stage i shade line, it felt just a complete dream come true. >> mulligan's dream got even bigger in 2009 when hollywood sat up and took notice. she starred in the british coming of age film "an education" which earned her an oscar nomination and comparison to audrey hepburn. >> what if i got married. >> married? >> she played the 16-year-old girl dutifully living up to her parents' expectations until love leads her astray. in mulligan's own life it was acting that almost came between

>> when you told your parents, i want to be an actress. what was the response? >> they wanted me to go to university and then pursue acting once i had a degree. i went off did auditions and lied about where i was going. ever been. probably the biggest fight i've ever had with my parents when they found out. >> you paint a picture of being a very good child. rebellious phase? >> when i was 16, i asked to have a party and i've never had a party before. i had a super heroes party at my house and it was complete disaster. the police came twice. there were cigarette burns in the carpet. it was carnage. my parents were so disappointed in me. >> i have to ask, what super hero were you? >> i was a teenage mutant ninja turtle. it was my costume of choice. >> heros on a half shell.

>> so, rebellion was not her strong suit but determination was. by 2011, mulligan was on a fast track to stardom. one of her early hollywood projects was the film "drive" played the love interest of actor ryan gosling. during filming she lived at this hotel. >> i could see the hollywood sign from my window. i remember taking photo, i can see the hollywood sign. i'm really here. >> now, at age 30, carey mulligan has taken on a new role. she and her husband, marcus mumford the lead singer of the band, recently became first time parents. how is being a mom changed you? >> i think i'm more relaxed. >> that's great. because i don't think relaxed is a word first time mothers usually use. >> i know. >> even with talk of another oscar nomination for her role in

"suffragette" mulligan says she can now put it all in perspective. >> i love doing my job and i really like talking about it and all the great things are wonderful. at the end of the day i take off that hat, it's another life. >> osgood: next -- anchors

for twenty years. something is wrong with our healthcare system and it needs to be fixed. then, it was about health reform and getting eight million kids covered.

obamacare, and taking on insurance companies to bring down drug prices. i'm not going to let any family be deprived of healthcare. i'm not going to let the republicans rip up obamacare and throw it away. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. >> osgood: the naval history of world war ii is very real and very personal for two boys our steve hartman has visited. >> it all began here in raleigh, north carolina. with a flurry of plastic bomb shells. >> you sunk my battleship. >> a few years ago 11-year-old twins, carter and jack hanson got really into the game battleship. that got them interested in naval warfare in general.

vacation to see the york towna retired aircraft carrier in charleston, south carolina. >> my mom was just blown. like blew. >> the kids say the yorktown changed their lives. >> i just realized how amazing history can be. >> and it was about to get even better. on that same trip the boys learned about a world war ii vet named robert harding, who actually served on the yorktown. they got his e-mail address. started corresponding daily and became really enamored. the boys now keep his picture by their beds. if you ever go to the yorktown with them as we did they will chew your ear off about mr. harding and what he did on board as a plane handler. >> when the plane is ready to launch, he could go unstrap this and plane would go flying that direction. >> the folks who run the yorktown say lot of kids love the ship. but no kid has ever fallen for a sailor who served here like these two boys have fallen for

mr. harding. which is why, for this trip, the yorktown made special arrangements for a surprise visitor. >> you're march harding? >> that's right. hugging an old salt never felt so sweet. >> you are a good boy. >> it was hard to tell who enjoyed it more. or who needed it more. >> i guess i need somebody to talk to about it. surprising. >> since we first told this story in april, mr. harding and the boys have stayed in touch and last month got together again at the york town. this time, for entire weekend the boys get to spend the night on the ship. and even better they got to attend a reunion full of sailors

who served on the yorktown. sailors who gave jack and carter certificates naming them honorary members of the yorktown crew. >> this is going in my room. >> i don't know what to say. this was just awesome. i mean, official member of yorktown. it's been my dream. >> whoever said history is irrelevant obviously never fell in love with it. >> we don't know about how we've changed his life, but we know that he obviously changed ours. >> osgood: still to come. travels with the piano guys.

movies? >> osgood: are striking a chord with devoted audiences. lee cowan shows us how they do

it. >> there's no easy way to describe what you're about to see and hear. there's no point in trying to label it, either, no musical genre really quite fits. >> i like to say that it's familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. >> there's no rule book. there's no specific music theory that we stick to. >> we just know when it feels right, you know? >> they're called the piano guys. if you haven't heard of them you

their music videos are more like travelogues they have been viewed well over half a billion times. that's billion with a "b." and yet as internet sensations go, the piano guys consider themselves a little less than hip. >> we're not rock stars. it. nobody is putting pictures of jon schmidt and steven sharp nelson on their wall. >> in their lockers? >> right. and enshrining us. because we're old. we're dads. we're not good looking. i mean, come on, let's be honest. >> besides steven sharp nelson on the cello. and john schmidt on piano. the piano guys consist two of others, their producer al van der beek and cinematographer

the man behind those extraordinary youtube videos. >> you have to do something different that people haven't seen in order for them to want to share it. >> and for them being different is all about piano placement. like hoisting one on top of a thousand foot cliff in utah. >> we basically wrapped it in these cables and shrink wrapped it. >> we had no idea what we were doing. >> you can't go to home depot and ask for helicopter to piano tether cables. >> we made it. >> managed a mini concert at iguaz ozo falls in brazil. and moved a piano, by hand, along the great wall of china. >> basically they built some kind of contraption where they could rest sticks on their shoulders they were all around it, they went up probably about 200 stairs. >> carrying a piano. >> crazy.

>> those kind of stunts have earned them a hefty internet following. they have nearly 4.3 million youtube subscribers and counting. how many new subscribers every day? >> about 5,000. >> every day. >> could fluctuate. >> saying it, i don't want to sound than which land like whole can certificate hall. >> yes, they do play live, too, like when we caught up with them at the smith center for the performing arts recently in las vegas. they have release several albums. most recently a live album out this month. their fans are as hard to categorize as their music, they're young, they're old, male and female, rockers and not so much. >> we can't pretend like we've made our career. they have made our career.

even to a small extent pay them back for all of the support that they have given us. >> we remind each other, don't let this go to the heads. >> i don't ever want to get used to the feeling, the miracle that brought us together. >> we're so thankful for this opportunity -- >> not a day passes that they don't give thanks for it all. faith and family matter most. they're all devout mormons. they record not in l.a., new york or nashville. but in the basement of a modest home in salt lake city. >> latter day saints or church of jesus christ of latter day saints you feel like lot of people misunderstand you. that causes a lot of frustration. we're mormons, we don't have horns or multiple wives. we're not crazy. we just -- >> that's debatable.

>> some of us aren't crazy. >> they have a sense of humor about it. they joke they don't collect wives, but children. they have 16 between the four of them. >> i smile a lot in my videos and people ask me why i do. it's because my wife and kids i'm thinking about and how much i love them, how much they do for me. so, no matter where i go and how amazing the world is out there it's never as amazing as inside the home. >> that's when sony music came calling with a big recording contract, these four dads, were more worried than excited. >> we were just like, no, thank you we said no six or seven times. >> they wanted to make it but not at the expense of their personal lives. sony compromised. agreeing to distribute their music worldwide and let them book their tours around their faith and family's schedules. >> there is understanding that family will always come first.

we're dads first and foremost, that's been important for us, it's kept us alive. kept us doing what we're doing. >> makes your music better. just feel like everything is in balance. >> we were amazed as what they accomplish in that small basement studio. >> we just try to get all the different kind of sounds, different kinds of textures and piece it all together. >> how about one of these? >> steven has some 20 cellos. and he can make each one sound like just about anything. we watched as he laid down a buzzing sound. then something that sounded like a seagull. then a bang. mix in a few brushes.

then top it all off with john's signature touch on the piano. they are painfully aware the internet is fickle. which is why they say they trust not just in their talents, but in something larger. >> how far do you think this can go? >> i think it can go for a long time. for now, the piano guys are on a roll. creating that wonderful sound amidst nature's wonders. >> good idea to keep coming. we'll just rely on that. if they don't then there's something else for us. >> osgood: next, picture perfect.inside me to reach my goals.

>> osgood: a short take from daniel jones a photographer who has worked is almost always picture perfect. >> i knew when i left the house this morning it was going to be this incredible fog. just glow over everything. it's so quiet down here you can hear your heart beat. camera. it's kind of like my old friend. i'm daniel jones and i'm a photographer. when i work in this environment and on day like today i don't really think. now it's very automatic. this blocks out the light. you look into the back of the camera which is the ground glass, the image is upside down and backwards. but that's not the way it works. eventually your brain corrects for it.

it actually aids in composition. check my light. is the boulder behind me is popular for kids to climb up on and jump off. i come visit it every so often and lighting is always different. the boulder appears to be different. i've been to this boat many times and sometimes i didn't even take a picture i just looked at it. this one morning it was perfect. the boat is pointing out to the unknown. you don't know what is out there. you could go through the vail of fog and it could be sunny day. i live and work mostly in long island now. this is where i was born. when i was growing up i thought i would be an illustrate for. i probably started drawing in second grade and i have the proof right here. this is ten years later. this is college. this is done with an airbrush. after college i needed to start

working so i got a job in a photo studio. everybody takes pictures, but i thought i could make art with photography. i learned by doing. this is just fascinating here. as the waves crash over the rock during high tide, the ice slowly builds up. and then it starts to melt and you get these icicles hanging off. i sell my work at galleries and also sell at art fares. color work is newer work. this is a lot different than gallery situation in that i get to meet the people that buy my work. this is done by panning the camera very fast. they're irises. it's the connection with the person who is buying your work that is worth a million dollars really. they're kind of dream like. it's there, but it's not there. like the ripples on the wave as it breaks.

my photographs are in a way, they're like my children. and when someone is willing to purchase one, i feel like, i wonder if it's going to a good home. i don't have people in my photographs. i find it distracting. i want the viewer of my images to feel like they're there. they're there by themselves. but i have a picture of my daughter, kate, it's in the forest. she's a little, tiny figure in the picture. she's on a path that kind of winds back into the distance. really that image was a metaphor for her long journey, because she comes from china. she's adopted. when i'm not taking photographs i love watching kate play the violin. i also like watching her do gymnastics, she's very determined and a beautiful

this image behind me is called family tree" it has a real connection to me because an image i shot the day my father passed away. he was in the hospital but i needed a break. i got home and i got a phone call that my father had passed away. i have since gone back to visit this tree. in an odd way it feels like i'm visiting with him. this is not the eastiest way to make a living. i can't even afford to buy my own work. luckily i can just make one. >> i've been fighting my own life. it's not a choice for me.

screen gems. announcement: this storm promises to be the biggest of the decade. with total accumulation of up to three feet. roads will be shut down indefinitely. and schools are closed. campbell's soups go great with a cold and a nice red.

>> osgood: 'tis the season for the kind of plaintiff vees hollywood often considers it's best. our critic david edelstein has been to see three of them. >> the cusp of december, holiday movie season begins. what to seek out? what to salivate overseeing, besides star wars, which i'm already sick of. to see now, "creed." >> i've been fighting my whole life. it's not a choice for me. >> you got to work hard. i swear to god if you're not

going to do it i'm out. >> it's not quite rocky vii, sylvester stallone is very poignant, a tad shameless but on the sidelines. >> here is what i want you to do. >> the spotlight's on a young african american boxer son of the late apollo creed played by michael b. jordan. two years back director ryan coogler collaborated with jordan on the devastating "fruit vail station" depicting the senseless death of 22-year-old oscar grant. that's one kind of vital story. >> you know nothing about me. >> "creed" is another it focuses on pride, hard work, forging one's own identity. yeah, it's hollywood corn but it has the texture of real life. there's a long, long single shot boxing match that is a knock

to seek out "room." it opened small last month and it's going wider. the story of a mom and 5-year-old son in a room he thinks is the whole world. a place of magic and fantasy. what she doesn't tell him is it's a prison fashioned by a sexual psychopath. >> i'm scared. >> i know. >> such evil is flabbergasting but the good is somehow more mysterious, the capacity of a child when guarded by a loving parent to project kindness on to the most malevolent environment. i can't praise the acting of them enough. raw nerve stuff. to look forward to, "the big short." >> guy who gets his hair cut at

greenspan. >> do you do you make exuberant comedy about the financial apocalypse of tuwaitha also elucidates the labyrinth fraud at the heart of the economy? director adam mckay leaps to the occasion working for michael lewis' book on the collapse of the subprime mortgage market. it's part goofy comedy, part thriller, part documentary that leaves you with actual knowledge. >> fueled by stupidity. >> that's fraud. >> tell me the difference. >> you root for maverick bankers and hedge funders, played by amuck others, steve carrel, ryan gosling, christian bale and brad pitt to be proven right in betting against the market built on corrupt loans. you say, yes, when they are. then realize their win was your
