going because the weather in large parts of the country is brutal. >> that's right. and we begin with that post-christmas weather nightmare playing out for millions of americans in what is turning out to be a tough trip home from the holiday. a major storm targeting the r u morning. rob, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this was a potent pacific storm just a couple of days ago getting through the mountains and we had snow across i-80 up and over donner pass getting to lake tahoe. chains required there and that is going to be the case today as it emerges into the plains where we have a serious amount of winter weather advisories that stretch not just from the canadian border, but all the way down through the border of mexico as well. so, some serious cold air with this. it will draw in some moisture from the gulf of mexico. we have the threat for severe weather today on top of the northern fringe which could bring blizzard conditions. austin to san antonio, and later on today and tonight,

could see a threat for tornadoes, dallas is also in the slight risk area, not just an area that will see severe weather today but a huge hub for airport travelers. for that marcus moore is live for us in dallas this morning. good morning, marcus. >> reporter: hey, rob, good morning to you. this is the day most people will be traveling to return to their homes. in fact, 2.5 million people are expected to fly today on one of the busiest travel days of the holiday season and so far here at dallas' love field we have seen no significant delays or cancellations, just a lot of people ready to travel. rob, as you mentioned, nasty weather could impact thousands of flights as people head home as this storm system moves to the east. expected to dump more ice and snow to the north and bring heavy rain and the threat of severe weather to dallas and to the south. we've already seen how this storm has packed a punch. take a look at this video of a snowy and icy christmas day car pileup that involved at least a dozen cars and it forced officials to shut down an entire section of the 15 freeway in

california. ten people had to be transported to hospitals with injuries. as that system moves to the east with ice, snow and heavy rain expected it could mean potentially more bad news for the millions who will brave the traffic and hop into their cars and head to various destinations today. experts suggesting that if you can hold off another day you might be able to find lighter traffic on the redways and here at the airports. certainly, as we know, mother nature could certainly put a spin on things today. >> thank you, marcus. whit? turning to that tragedy at the border. for the second time this month, a child has died. an 8-year-old boy. matt gutman joins us from los angeles with the latest. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. officials say the boy seemed to have flu-like symptoms but it's unclear what role, if any, the

jail-like conditions at the customs and border patrol stations had in his death. but last night i spoke with a devastated border patrol commissioner who said their facilities are simply not designed to accommodate children and is launching an internal review. a christmas tragedy. the death of a second child in border patrol custody in less than three weeks. according to u.s. officials, the boy was identified as felipe alonzo-gomez, he had been detained six days earlier, alongside his father, and displayed flu-like symptoms christmas eve. officials say father and son were immediately transported to this hospital in new mexico. at 1:20 p.m. the hospital determined he had a temperature of 103, but 90 minutes later, released him back to cbp custody with antibiotics. that evening the boy's condition worsened and he was rushed back to the hospital where he died

just before midnight. >> i reached out to customs and border protection to find out what happened and find out what we can do to be helpful to the family. >> reporter: overnight, the cbp calling this a tragic loss announcing it will conduct secondary medical checks on all children in its care with a focus on children under 10. earlier this month, a 7-year-old girl from guatemala died in a texas hospital also while in the custody of u.s. border patrol. the little girl's body was returned to her home village earlier this week. jakelin among an all-time record number of children trying to cross arrived ill, says cbp, but her death leading to outrage and calls for independent investigations. last week, a congressional delegation visited the station where jakelin was held hours before her death. >> i don't know how to describe it. it smelled. it was uncomfortable. it was inhumane. >> what circumstances, what

policies may have contributed to her death? >> reporter: now, because of the concern of a flu outbreak, the cdc has also been notified. the commissioner told me that one of the major issues is the record number of families trying to cross into the u.s. among them, about 24,000 children just this month alone and an all-time record, a humanitarian crisis, the agency doesn't have the resources to handle it right now. whit? >> all right, matt gutman in los angeles. thanks so much. amy? well, now for the third day in a row almost 200 migrants were released from i.c.e custody and dropped off near an el paso bus station christmas day. many were children. the amount of people has been overwhelming but representative beto o'rourke's call for help in the el paso area was answered. he tweeted grateful to everyone who has donated so far, and to all of those on the ground here in el paso who are helping with temporary shelter, food and and other help for these families. heartwarming to see people pitching in.

this issue of america's border is also at the heart of the partial government shutdown now heading into its fifth day with no end in sight. president trump insisting he will sign no deal that does not fund his border wall with mexico. let's go to white house correspondent tara palmeri. tara, good morning to you. >> good morning, dan. today is the first full business day since the government shut down on saturday. federal workers will start to of feel the disruption. >> hello, and merry christmas. >> reporter: moments after his christmas wish to troops, president trump griping about his political issues at home. >> it's a disgrace what's happening in our country but other than that i wish everybody a very merry christmas. >> reporter: trump still fuming about the border wall and giving no indication about when the government shutdown might end. >> i can't tell you when the government is going to be open. i can tell you it's not going to be open until we have a wall, a fence, whatever they'd like to call it. >> reporter: as the government remains partially closed for a

fifth day, the president claiming without any proof that 400,000 federal employees working temporarily without pay over the holidays support his position. >> what is your message to federal workers who have been impacted by the shut down? >> i think they understand what's happening. they want border security. many of those workers have said to me and communicated stay out until you get the funding for the wall. these federal workers want the wall. >> reporter: but some are skeptical. we spoke to one of those federal employees, a government contractor with an 8-month-old son, facing uncertainty about his next paycheck instead urging for an end to the shut down. >> border security is great but basically it feels like extortion when he's holding our jobs hostage. if america is your first priority, you should certainly let us get back to work. >> reporter: after a quiet holiday negotiations between the white house and congressional

leaders could pick up, congress comes back to session tomorrow, but we're still at least 24 hours from a vote to re-open the government. dan? >> lots more to come on this story. amy, over to you. the uncertainty about the government adding fuel to the freefall on wall street. the dow taking another plunge dropping nearly 12% on the year, rebecca jarvis has more. good morning. >> good morning, amy, that's right. this is typically the time of year where we see a santa claus rally where stocks see a boost between christmas and just after new year's. this has been a brutal month for december. in fact, i's the worst december on record since the great depression in 1931. there are a number of factors that have contributed to this selloff that we have seen. interest rates are raising, the uncertainty with sigh that over

the trade deal. finally, a global slowdown in the world economy. add to that, the political uncertainty. with the government shutdown, president trump continuing to lash out by the federal reserve and efforts by treasury trying to soothe things down instead creating uneasy with investors. >> a lot of people want to know this, there are many who believe this slump will continue into the new year. >> if you look at the current economy, things are looking decent. we just wrapped up one of the best holiday seasons in years, a record number of dallas spent between november 1st and december 24th, according to mastercard. all of those things look good.

the sun certainty lies ahead. that's where investors look and say, things may not be getting better. we switch gears to that tsunami over in indonesia. the death toll climbing even higher. more than 400 people dead now. survivors homeless. now survivors may be at risk for another tsunami. ian pannell is on the ground. good morning to you. >> good morning, dan. just look at the destruction that was brought this huge tsunami on saturday, punching a hole in this solid brick building. at first, the government said it was a wave of just three feet high. locals say there were three distinct waves, the last one they describe at a 15-foot monster. this morning, search teams in a desperate race against time. it's now four days since the tsunami struck. local pop group 17 performing on the beach when the wave hit. and what began as a major rescue

ly a recovery operation. over the last three days they alone just their team on this stretch of coastline have pulled out 42 bodies from some of the rubble and also from the sea. over 400 are confirmed dead, but with more than 150 still missing, that's likely to go up. >> before there were houses here. >> reporter: all this was houses? >> yes. houses. >> reporter: and it's all gone? >> all gone. >> reporter: 16,000 have been displaced with hundreds of homes destroyed. joaquin had just got home from work when he heard the tsunami roar to shore. >> what did it sound like? >> like a train. >> like a train? >> yeah. >> reporter: he told me he grabbed his wife and child and they ran. when you saw the bodies -- you don't want to think about it. >> no. >> reporter: he's too

traumatized to talk about what he saw when he came back home with bodies and destruction all around. meanwhile, the volcano that triggered the tsunami continues to erupt and it has been every single day since june. we keep seeing lightning and eruptions. hearing eruptions from the volcano out at sea. the government warning there could be another tsunami and they're telling people to stay three-quarters of a mile away from this coastline. dan? >> ian, thank you. stay safe. they're not out of the woods yet. >> the country having one a few months ago. still recovering from that. now to the latest on the fallout after the video that caused instant outrage. the sight of a teenage athlete being forced to cut his hair at the insistence of a referee or face forfeiting a match. a new jersey school board calling an emergency meeting today after video of the incident went viral. abc's adrienne bankert abc's adrienne bankert here with

the details. >> the image of andrew johnson having his dreadlocks have been viewed millions and millions of time and this morning we're hearing from johnson's parents through a statement from their lawyer. they are deeply moved by the outpouring for their son and also saying, the referee was late to meet and missed weigh-ins. he failed to raise any issues about his hair until 90 seconds before the match. that's when he was given the ultimatum. now, the statement further says the johnsons do not blame their son's coaches or trainers but it was the fault of the referee and his superiors for this allowing to happen at all. this is as the board of education announced the school meeting would be held today to discuss personnel matters though they said it may go quickly into executive session. in other words, this meeting is closed to the public. not clear if it is in connection with the cutting incident or any sort of action can come from it?

>> a lot of people watching this closely, a lot of anger around this. we do have happier news from new jersey that involves a guy who quite literally played his cards right in atlantic city and it paid off big time. look at him. he won a million dollars on a $5 poker bet. the odds less than 20 million to 1 and he plans to give most of his winnings to his kids. meanwhile, many americans went looking for a christmas miracle by way of a mega jackpot. gio benitez has more on that story. >> reporter: they were looking for that christmas miracle of $321 million. so sorry to say it didn't happen and now looking at nine weeks without a single winner. there has not been a single mega millions top winner since that record-breaking $1.5 billion drawing back in october. let's look at those winning numbers right now. someone in america has a ticket

worth a million dollars, $3 million if they bought that multiplier. make sure you check your tickets this morning. with no winner, the jackpot keeps rolling up and the next drawing this friday night for an estimated $348 million. $210 if you take the lump sum cash option, just enough to start the new year off right, dan. >> just enough. that's arguable. >> i won some lottery money. >> yeah. >> so i gave lottery tickets to my kids in their stockings and we won $11. >> 11 bucks, there you go. >> it paid for all the lottery tickets i bought. now to rob with that storm affecting post holiday travel. >> clean up some of the mess that the scratch-offs can make. a mess across parts of texas. severe weather threat into parts of louisiana and white up there. as a matter of fact, a flash flood watch just posted and it's going to be raining heavily friday across parts of the east. northern part of this system, could see over a foot of snow with potentially blizzard

the mercedes-benz winter event is back. lease the glc 300 for $459 a month at your local mercedes-benz dealer. mercedes-benz. the best or nothing. we are all parents on the anchor desk and like anybody with kids we're dealing with the issue of limiting screen time. this battle can become espcially intense over the holidays when many kids receive new devices. there is preliminary evidence that children who spend more than two hours a day on screens get lower scores on thinking and language tests. how do you set limits? becky worley is here to help. hey, becky, good morning. >> good morning, dan. so many new gaming consoles, phones, laptops, tablets handed out yesterday. i say give it 20 days and parents will lose their mind with screen time battles dominating families. enter new devices that give parents a way to implore time limits, filters and remote kill switches for kids' devices.

>> reporter: the sargents, like almost every family in america, are trying to manage screen time. >> we're constantly trying to engage them, let's go here but they are so addicted to them they don't know how to come off them. >> reporter: they limit their usage but this summer we asked them to do an experiment. if the kids could have unlimited time on their devices, how much time would the kids choose? after a week of binging -- >> what time are you planning to go to bed? >> whatever time i fall asleep. >> reporter: and finishing out with an average of about five hours a day, the entire family knew they needed help regulating their screen time. so they turned to circle with disney. a $99 device and app that keeps tabs on usage across all of the kids' devices, tablets, computers and gaming consoles. and it can disable access once they hit their allotted time. circle has a licensing deal with our parent company disney. >> we're here to check in. >> reporter: once summer ended, we asked them to keep a diary of how these automatically imposed limits work. >> we have decreased the kids'

time limits to an hour and a half. >> reporter: while 4-year-old lily didn't seem to mind the new restrictions, the older boys -- >> what do you think? >> it's horrible. >> why? >> i don't like it. >> because it limits you? >> reporter: but dr. victoria dunckley who worked with the family setting limits, says screen time matters. >> kids with less than two hours a day have better grades and read more. >> reporter: but henry and carly there were fewer arguments with the kids because circle act like an automatic kill switch. >> since the new limits too i find the kids doing other things like crafts, wesley was at the counter reading his book. and asking me to shop for more for more books. >> reporter: after a few months of using the device we check in. tell me about the experiment. how's it gone? the sargents have limited screen time even more. they're down to 30 minutes a day and restrict usage before school.

less conflict and less management of all the timers? >> absolutely. the best part is i'd say before the circle device we would remind them, i'd be cooking dinner, grayson, you have five minutes left for 30 minutes, but now it just shuts down their computer. so you don't have to do any reminding. >> reporter: dr. dunckley agrees. she says the battle can wear parents down to the point they just stopped regulating screen time at all. >> it's very exhausting and then the kids get irritated as well. >> to have a tool like that, it really helps you with something that a lot of people really struggle with was extremely helpful. >> the beauty of circle and some other devices and apps like it, each kid's time is tracked across multiple devices. so, say, they get an hour of screen time, once they hit that on a combination of the xbox, their ipad and the laptop, it's game over. now, speaking of games, consoles were big gifts yesterday and

there are pretty robust parental controls built into those consoles if that's all your kid is doing so we have an article at our website, goodmorningamerica.com, that details how to get those parental controls in for the xbox, ps4 and nintendo switch. amy, i know console gaming is ot before. >> it's not allowed in our house because it's so addictive. game over, i love that. >> i heard a story about the dad saying she needs to turn off the ipad and she tried to swipe him. >> swipe him away. >> it's called the teenage years. they're joyful. coming up, 'tis the season for returning. we have the secret to making your exchanges worthwhile when we come back. your exchanges worthwhile when we come back. aging power grids, ...aging everything. we also have the age-old problem of bias in the workplace. really... never heard of it. the question is... who's going to fix all of this? an actor? probably not. but you know who can solve it?

sleepwalking, or allergic and skin reactions which can be life-threatening. stop chantix and get help right away if you have any of these. tell your healthcare provider if you've had depression or other mental health problems. decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. use caution when driving or operating machinery. the most common side effect is nausea. for me chantix worked.boom. end of story. talk to your doctor about chantix. save on thousands of clearance itemsave 50% on apparel.et. up to 50% on home. and up to 50% on beauty and more. only at target. they work together doing important stuff. the hitch? like you, your cells get hungry. feed them... with centrum® micronutrients. restoring your awesome...

greeted the royal family. and the queen herself as they arrived at church on christmas day. prince harry and meghan were all smiles celebrating their first christmas as a couple and the last one before having kids looking relaxed and happy walking alongside william and kate. after the service a quick curtsy as the queen drove away. and then both couples mingled with the christmas crowds. this marks the first time the four have appeared in public together since meghan and harry announced they were moving from kensington palace to windsor sparking unconfirmed rumors of a royal rift. >> no coincidence we saw them walking side by side in face of all the critics who said there were tensions and feuding. >> reporter: the royal season marked by two different holiday cards from the young couples and you may ask what does santa leave under the tree in a royal

household? >> the gift exchanges, you have to stick within a small budget and it has to be something that makes each other laugh. >> closer to home it has been a busy year for my family. ♪ ♪ god save the queen >> reporter: during the message she touched on the busy year it's been for the royal family, two weddings and not to mention -- >> another child expected soon kepts to keep a grandmother well occupied. >> reporter: now, royal christmases are, of course, always full of tradition. there's opening of presents on christmas eve and then there's mass followed by a festive lunch with all of the cripplings christmas day and today on boxing day a traditional pheasant shoot. one might expect animal loving meghan to sit that one out. >> julia macfarlane in london. thanks. 'tis the season for giving and, of course, returning. two-thirds of holiday shoppers return at least one item this holiday season and becky worley

is back with the best deals for all of your exchanges. you say the return process actually should start at home. why is that? >> whit, whether it was bought in store or online, the best case is they give you free shipping. now, if that doesn't work you may need to make a phone call, customer support, yeah, it's not pretty today. it was 20 minutes of wait time and that was like two weeks ago so it's going to be interesting today, tough. >> i used human human h beings. talking about amazon and has unique return options this year. explain. >> lots of options on how and but they all start at amazon.com/returns so you can return in person at staffed amazon locations so the close of the one to me is at the

university near my house. those walk-ins are shown on the return page and amazon lockers by the seven-11. amazon knows where i live and direct me to the closest location so let's move over to the shipping options. you can go to u.p.s. stores or the post office, also another shutter, u.p.s. will also pick up if you're willing to pay extra and come to your doorstep. i checked on a small package. it was $6 extra. totally worth it to avoid the post office. >> what about time limits? >> yeah, some tech, some toys have very short windows or can't be returned if the box is open the at all. "consumer reports" listed the stores with the tightest return window, app 14, best days and then sears, kmart,

gamestop, forever 21, 30-day return window then you're toast. we talked about returns. what about gift cards? how do we make sure we get the most out of them? >> reporter: you recipients, if it's at a retailer where you have a digital account or or video game site, even starbucks, log in and redeem the card getting it tied to your account today. that way it can't be drained by a hacker if they have the number somehow or you lose the physical card, to big deal. if you plan to shop, consolidate purchases and kill the entire balance. when you leave $2.37, i forget about it and i lose the card. it's like giving the multibillion dollar company a hand youth. finally if you don't think you'll use it, sell it today.

online. there are sites like raise, cardpool or gift card granny i love them. ale's take a small percentage and sell it. if you don't it'll die in your desk drawer or wherever you jam stuff like that. >> clothing is, is now the time to get that clothing? >> i've been telling you to wait for the sales. release the hounds and use those gift card, gap, 50% off in store, abercrombie, 40% to 50% off, macy's and nordstrom have big sales going on. >> thanks so much. appreciate it as always. a check for the forecast and rob marciano. good morning once again, rob. >> wouldn't it be great if we can ask santa to make some of these. come christmas day he is off and some go swimming in an aquarium and down under everything is

upside down. some saints got together to do handstands and off time for our series "hack your happiness." science-based ways to live happener in and healthier. may think of how to up our game at work. here is a counter. intuitive piece of advice.

research suggests becoming a smart giver is one route to success. can you do it through something called the five-minute favor. check it out. we are at the elite wharton school of business where these high-power mba students are neither crunching numbers. they are instead requesting favors writing them down then walking around and signing up for other favors they can help with. which one was yours? >> mine was over there and involved helping my parents get more expose with their nonprofit. >> i signed that one. >> yes. >> i actually signed that. >> nice. >> reporter: the organizer is professor adam grant author of "give and take." his research says being a giver can make you the most successful person in the office an happier in life. when you have a choice of who to work with, you ask for them and you trust them to be your subordinate or boss and end up

with better reputations. >> is it possible to be a failed giver? you're constantly giving you will burn out fast. >> i've heard over and heard again as people who are generous, i was tering at saying no first and now i recognize every no is a chance to say yes when it matters more. in the process of writing his book he found an understated giver, adam rifkin listed as fortune's most successful networker. through the--minute favor and make an inproceedduction or give feedback on somebody's work. >> the more you help people the more later in life they may be inclined to step you too. >> reporter: this is called givitas. how much personal happen that is you can create for yourself. like with james whose friends

want to get him on abc's "the bachelor." i happen to know the producer. >> i'm a big fan of chris harrison. >> very awkward. >> i really love his work. >> reporter: adam had a connection with jenny who wanted to spend time with superchef david chang. let's see -- >> hi, dave. how are you? >> i didn't call adam. i called to talk to you. so, listen, so you want to shadow for a day. >> yes. >> oh, my god. >> reporter: with some planning by david's team and "gma" jenny's favorite was granted. they met at one of his momofuku noodle bar. >> what can i help you out with. >> it was time to follow through

on the favors i volunteered for. including "the bachelor." i met somebody the other day who might be a good candidate for "the bachelor." i heard back in moments and gave james the good news. >> you seem like a mixture of thrilled and embarrassed. >> scared. wow. >> it feels great, seeing hi big his smile was was absolutely worth it. absolutely worth it. [ applause ] >> okay. one quick thing to say, that givitas exercise that adam does was created by husband and wife cheryl and wayne baker. if you want to hear more of my chat with adam check out the 10% happier podcast available wherever you get your podcast. >> i love it. so imayb is james going on "the bachelor." >> i connected them. they've been talking thus far. no concrete developments.

adam has had some second thoughts but he still wants to meet chris harrison. >> i think he should. >> we're rooting for him. >> chance now. >> coming up next christian bale. stay with us.

good morning, north bay. let's get up and get going. >> this is abc 7 mornings. >> good morning. i'm alexis smith from abc 7 mornings. a stanislaus county police officer has been shot and killed and the suspect is still on the loose. the shooting happened around 1:00 this morning in the town of newman. 33-year-old officer, roniel sing was man when he got calls of shots fired. he was taken to the hospital, where he later died. the suspect is believed to be driving a gray extended dodge ram pickup. surveillance manage to catch the suspect's face. he is considered dangerous. let's check in with sue hall now with a look at traffic. >> and we have bad news, as you can see, sky 7 is up. its on its way over toward highway 85. it's over moffett naval air station right now, because we have word of atali it's northbound 85 --, southbound 85, just north of

fremo fremont, and it is off to the side of the roadway, so we're not seeing a lot of slowing, so once the emergency crews get on scene, that could be a different

no weather worries for your commute today. temperatures are going top out in the upper 50s to near 60. a dry cold front will drop our temperatures the rest of the week. >> all right, thank you, mike. we'll have another abc 7 news update in about 30 minutes.

hey, welcome back to "gma." award season is just around the corner and the movie "vice" is shaping up to be a major contender. it stars a completely transformed christian bale as dick cheney and adrienne, you got to sit down with him. >> it almost defies description. at times it's poignant, it's comic and tragic all inspired by dick cheney's life and time in office. bale totally transforming himself and in his words "vice" is a masterpiece. >> it's the hottest film, the controversial story of the most powerful vice president in modern history with an utterly unrecognizable christian bale playing the role of dick cheney. >> the vice president's job is mostly symbolic. >> everybody asked you about the

transformation. what did your kids think? >> moo i kids, they don't blink. it's funny. they seem to look in my eyes and, you know, i'm a boy -- i always bald and no eyebrows and big tummy and just loved jumping up and down on my tummy. >> obviously your wife is accustomed to it. >> the bigger i got, the smaller she looks. >> can you feel it, half the room wants to be us, the other half fears us. >> reporter: his on screen wife and driving force behind his political rise is played by amy adams. you and amy had this wonderful chemistry. >> you wouldn't have a dick cheney if you didn't have his wife lynne cheney. he went from having a dui to 11 years later being the youngest white house chief of staff ever. >> amy had to do prosthetics to

make her look older and maybe wasn't complaining but saying how do you do it? i know you're in the chair longer than me and your answer was. >> i just said you don't think about it. i'm very good at doing that. i'm good at blanking my brain, just tumbleweeds. >> i want to show the world the true power of the american presidency. >> reporter: although he seems to seamlessly transform it was not a role he immediately jumped at. but writer/director adam mckay lured him in. >> i knew adam was going to make a film about cheney but i assume he wanted me to talk about a supporting role. he's a fly fisherman and i think he knew he would get me on a hook and lure me in. he was so secretive. >> you had t coura to become someone or i'm gone. >> i love you, lynne. >> then prove it. >> you've worked with amy before and adam. you've worked with steve carell

before. did that help in creating this natural chemistry or was it the challenge of these roles something like we're doing a brand-new thing, let's wipe the slate. >> we think every single film is a brand-new thing. i think, oh, man, i can't do this. i don't know what i'm doing. everyone thinks i'm a method actor. i'm not, i just wing it. >> what? are you kiding? >> i go, let's see what happens now. do you have a shorthand when you work with people you've worked with before. >> you cannot say that you wing it. you who takes yourself and pours yourself into these roles and gains 60 pounds or becomes this muscle bound -- >> i wing it over a long period of time but that's to give myself the confidence and i learn things very slowly so takes me a long time to get there. >> federal overreach. >> you're already getting of gold on globe nomination. impending oscar nominations. >> let's not get ahead of ourself. >> are we going to do this thing

or what. >> i believe we can make this work. [ applause ] >> there's nobody like him. there's absolutely nobody like him. another thing he said his arm had to be twisted because he really did not want to have to work so hard. he worked so hard and did so much research and the movie "vice" is in theaters now. >> for a guy that is winging it -- >> i wasn't buying that for one second. he is really a dedicated actor. you have to see it. there's nothing like it. >> great interview. coming up what comes after the holiday feast, the post holiday workout. how a 20-minute
