7:03 am
of 2018. steph curry did not make a three-pointer in that game last night but they still won but his streak is over. we'll get much more on the nba -- this is why you stay up. you miss history, kind of. >> or look at the clips when you wake up. >> i'm not going on this one, guys. >> we'll get into that. ginger is tracking what you have noticed out there, a lot of folks, extreme heat, record high temperatures, 100 degrees reported in st. louis. yesterday much more on this scorcher across the country coming up. george? we begin with mounting concerns about the economy. rising inflation is hitting american families hard and sparked a sell-off in the financial markets monday. stocks are down more than 20% since january, a bear market, and that's one sign that a correonn may be coming. good mning, rebecca. it george. stocks opened slightly higher this morning, but they have a long way to go to recover what they lost so far this year. the s&p 500, which is what's in
7:04 am
most 401(k)s is down almost 22%. the major culprit is inflation. the average american family paying roughly $350 more a month o the same goods and services as they did a year ago and the federal reserve's reaction to all that. they're trying to cool inflation by hiking interest rates. typically they would hike rates slow and steady. this time around so much more. we're expecting another rake hike to come tomorrow. >> what does that mean for mean for families? >> reporter: the cost of borrowing gets higher, credit cards are more expensive, mortgages. mortgages started the year on average about 3% today, now about 6%. it's more expensive to buy a
7:05 am
home using credit. it's also an environment where more and more economists are calling for a recession. that can spell job losses and bankruptcies. george? >> rebecca jarvis, thanks very much. amy? george, now to the high-stakes hearings on the january 6th attack on the capitol. the house committee presenting testimony by former president trump's inner circle about urging him not to declare victory in the election. our congressional correspondent rachel scott is on capitol hill with all the latest for us. good morning, rachel. >> reporter: amy, good morning. this was searing and stark testimony. a view inside the trump white house after the 2020 election and the blistering words from trump's most inner circle describing a president detached from reality. this morning, a window into the white house on election night 2020 as trump's most inner circle told him he should not declare victory. >> ballots are still going to be counted for days and it was far too early to be making anything like that. >> reporter: trump rejected the advice of his campaign manager, bill stepien.
7:06 am
>> he thought i was wrong. he told me so. he was going to go in a different direction. >> reporter: and instead turned to the attorney that started to embrace wild conspiracy theories and false claims of election fraud, rudy giuliani. >> spoke to the president several times that night. >> reporter: senior trump strategist jason miller says giuliani was intoxicated at the white house, a claim he denies. >> the mayor was definitely intoxicated, but i do not know his level of intoxication when he spoke with the president, for example. mayor giuliani was saying, we won it. they're stealing it from us. where did all the votes come from? we need to go say that we won. >> reporter: one by one people closest to trump said they tried to convince him otherwise. his daughter ivanka trump -- >> the results were still being counted. it was becoming clear that the race would not be called on election night. >> reporter: to his son-in-law
7:07 am
jared kushner, who said he warned trump about giuliani's claims telling the former president -- >> not the approach i would take if i was you. >> reporter: trump ignored it all. his claims only growing more outlandish. >> the claims of fraud were [ bleep ]. i thought, boy, if he really believes this stuff, he has lost contact with -- he's become detached from reality. >> reporter: nearly all the witnesses who testified monday were republicans, detailing how the president pressed on with his false claims even as his election losses piled up. >> in no instance did a court find that the charges of fraud were real. [ crowd chanting ] >> reporter: and many trump supporters believed he was right anyway, marching to the capitol on january 6th. >> i don't want to say that what we're doing is right, but if the election is being stolen, what is it going to take? >> reporter: the committee also made the case that trump's big lie was also a big rip-off detailing how $250 million
7:08 am
poured into trump's fund-raising machine. almost none of it went to challenging the election results. as for the former president he released a lengthy 12-page statement. he called the committee a distraction, still pushing those false claims about a stolen election. t.j.? >> all right, rachel, thank you as always. we turn to the weather. yes, it's summertime and it gets hot. what we're talking about is record-breaking heat in some parts of the country. ginger is in philadelphia for us. ginger, we're talking some 100 million americans now on alert for dangerous conditions. >> reporter: yes, and that, of course, fuels severe storms. we had, t.j., more than 500,000 customers lose power. a lot of folks waking up this morning without power. you can see why. images from chicago, there were more than 300 storm reports. many damaging winds, but this was a supercell that traveled more than 100 miles. that is hard to do. those are the types that often have circulation or tornado warnings on them. that blew through the east side lake. then you see the trees down in
7:09 am
maywood, illinois, power outages and trees down around pittsburgh. this morning you can see why. that's the warm front. a little action happening just west of us here in philadelphia. and from washington, d.c., to wilmington, north carolina, you've got a shot this morning and early afternoon of seeing damaging winds and even a little twist. there were a couple of pockets back in the plains, but again that heat, this is what impacts everyone. everyone is touched by this. if anybody is outdoors or works outside, extended time out there, george, places like detroit, cincinnati, even minneapolis in an excessive heat warning. look at those numbers. it will feel even hotter than it is. george? >> boy, they are really something. ginger, thanks very much. as that heat is spreading heavy floods and rockslides have closed down yellowstone national park. will carr is in montana with that story. good morning, will. >> reporter: good morning, george. the rain has stopped, but the floodwaters have continued to go up overnight and we are talking about a record amount of rain. i want to show you the damage that's come with it. in the distance you can see the truck is submerged.
7:10 am
this entire neighborhood is swamped and this is the road that leads to yellowstone national park. as you get closer to the park, it is cut off leaving both tourists and towns trapped by water. this morning, homes washing away after unprecedented rain pounding yellowstone national park. >> that is insane. >> reporter: the storms mixing with rapidly melting snowpacks triggering mudslides washing away roads and watch this bridge. toppled, then swept away by the raging yellowstone river. authorities shutting down summer vacations at the iconic park. all entrances temporarily closed. with intense flooding and treacherous rockslides tourists told to evacuate. the saturated soil so brittle that home's shed collapsing into the current washing away downstream. just an hour south of billings, montana, drone video capturing the magnitude of the floodwaters inundating homes and washing out roads. residents told to shelter in place.
7:11 am
and in parts of the state drinking tap water is not safe. first responders conducting swift water rescues in at least two airlift, both residents and travellers trapped. >> we checked out of our hotel this morning and we're going to head into yellowstone and some man said, have you not heard the news yet? he said, you're not leaving any time soon. >> reporter: the only way to get to that town right now is by air. we know yellowstone national park is going to be closed at least until wednesday and the northern part of the park is going to be closed a lot longer than that. amy? >> all right, will carr, we appreciate it. thank you so much. we turn to the terrifying moments when a gunman opened fire at a texas summer camp with some 250 kids in attendance. staffers sprang into action to protect the children and police were on the scene within just minutes. marcus moore has the latest. >> we went in the room and then we heard shooting. then we got scared and everybody started crying.
7:12 am
>> reporter: this morning, another texas town reeling after a gunman opened fire at this summer camp program. >> my immediate emotion was to panic. >> reporter: children from 4 to 14 were inside the duncanville fieldhouse when police say a man armed with a handgun burst in and began firing. >> what we know is the suspect entered through the main lobby doors with a handgun. that was the initial gunfire. the initial shot that the people inside the location heard. >> reporter: camp counselors trained for these scenarios acting quickly rushing kids to classrooms and locking the doors. >> i was praying to god nothing bad would happen. >> reporter: there were no officers at the facility when the shots rang out, but police arrived two minutes after receiving calls, shooting and killing the suspect within minutes. >> there was no hesitation. no hesitation whatsoever. we're thankful for their training, that they do exactly what they're trained to do. >> reporter: right now police are unaware of a motive. it's also unclear if the gunman
7:13 am
was targeting someone inside this building. but, t.j., officials this morning say quick actions saved lives. >> scary, scary scene. all right, thank you so much for that, marcus. we want to turn to the investigation after a group of men disrupted a pride month celebration at a california library and this was caught on camera. our chief national correspondent matt gutman with the latest here. >> did you guys call the cops? >> reporter: this morning, police say members of the extremist far right group the proud boys disrupting the drag queen story hour event at a san francisco area library which was being held to celebrate pride. a safe space for kids' story time turning into the latest battlefield in the war over lgbtq culture. >> eight to ten proud boys marched in with their cameras blazing pointed at me. >> reporter: law enforcement now investigating the incident as a hate crime. the executive director of the drag queen story hour writing, as many of the books that we read to children make perfectly
7:14 am
clear, words and actions have consequences. it is unfathomable that adults would terrorize children and our drag performers at story hours. for her safety, dulce had to be escorted out of the building by security. >> they were successful in scaring us, but they weren't successful in their ultimate goal which is to make us go away because of their own discomfort with the diversity of our world. they failed in that. >> reporter: that incident following an even more disturbing one over the weekend ahead of a pride event in idaho. 31 people allegedly members of the hate group the patriot front arrested after they were found packed into a u-haul truck with shields and masks looking like a little army. police say they were planning to riot at saturday's coeur d'alene pride event. >> we're not going back to the days. we are past that. >> reporter: now, all 31 of those arrested were charged with conspiracy to riot. all 31 were released on bail and the police chief in that community saying they've
7:15 am
received dozens of hate calls including death threats against him and that rising level of hate is one reason the department of justice formed a new domestic terrorism unit that is focused on what it calls the persistent and evolving threat of violent national extremism. g guys? >> all right, matt, thank you as always. we want to turn to the nba finals. you may have heard us all enthusiastically discussing it at the top of the show. golden state now one win away from a title, beat boston last night. will reeve was at the game in san francisco. and this was an un-steph-like night but they won anyway. >> reporter: hey, good morning, sunshine. no need to sleep at the nba finals. you do that when the games are over. as far as steph goes, wasn't his best game, wasn't his worse, maybe his weirdest. he didn't make a three-point shot in the whole game and you have to go back over 1,300 calendar days to find the last time that that happened. overall, though, a dramatic game. highlight reel moments including one from right around here, jordan poole banking in a three
7:16 am
at the third quarter buzzer and now we head back to boston where the warriors could win it all. this morning, the golden state warriors are one win away from an nba title. in front of a fired up home crowd the warriors jumped out to an early lead in game five of the nba finals and looked poised to blow out the boston celtics who hadn't lost two games in a row all playoffs, but boston came roaring back. >> a 16-point lead has disappeared. >> reporter: the comeback thanks in part to an uncharacteristic even unprecedented off night from superstar finals mvp front-runner and best three-point shooter of all time, steph curry, who didn't make a single three-pointer for the first time in 233 games. >> i don't think i've ever been happier after 0 for whatever type of night. track record says shoot the ball better next game, and looking forward to that bounceback. >> reporter: some huge buckets
7:17 am
from klay thompson. a clutch performance from former number one pick andrew wiggins. >> wiggins drives and finishes! >> reporter: and jordan poole doing this -- >> oh, he banks it in. he banks it in! >> reporter: overwhelmed jayson tatum and the celtics who head back to boston on the brink of defeat. >> obviously we're all frustrated with tonight a little bit, and so our message is take it one at a time. we've been here before and did it against milwaukee and let's bring it back out to the bay. >> reporter: i've been hitting you with stats all series long. here's one that will excite warriors' fans. of teams that lead the nba finals 3-2 they go on to win the title, 80% of the time. the warriors have a chance to win their fourth title in eight years thursday night. guys? >> thursday night, guys. 9:00 eastern. see you here friday morning? >> fresh and just ready to go on friday morning. >> of course, i'm always ready to go. >> give me a full update when you come into work. >> yes, it is on abc. thursday night 9:00 eastern.

7:32 am
with the former wife of hunter biden. she spoke with kathleen buhle who's out with a new memoir. >> hunter biden has attracted a great deal of attention over his troubled personal life. through it all his former wife has remained in the shadows, but now in her new memoir, "if we break: a memoir of marriage, addiction, and healing," she's now breaking her silence. she was married to hunter biden for 24 years and this morning for the first time kathleen buhle is opening up in an abc news exclusive about her new memoir, "if we break." >> the process of writing the book was incredibly cathartic. i came to own some of the decisions and choices i made which was hard. >> reporter: now divorced from the president's son for five years, buhle detailing everything from watching her husband struggle with drug and alcohol addiction -- >> at what point in your marriage did you realize that hunter had a drinking problem? >> with addiction especially there's so much shame surrounding it that it becomes
7:33 am
something that we don't talk about. >> we've seen images of hunter, the ones that were on his laptop looking dishevelled. was that the husband you knew in moments at times? >> not at all. he was struggling under a massive drug addiction and that's heartbreaking and painful and that wasn't who i was married to. >> reporter: -- to her decision to let him control their finances. . >> you say you weren't really involved in the finances at all? >> this was one of the harder parts for me to write and to acknowledge, it's embarrassing to say that i ceded all financial control to my husband. >> do you know why you did that? >> i liked the nice things and i didn't want to think about the cost at which they were coming. writing this book really helped me to understand how unfair that
7:34 am
was to hunter and how unhealthy that was for me. >> it was in 2003 when hunter returned from rehab the first time and he tells you something about the tax situation. what did he tell you? >> that we owed money in taxes but that he had set up a payment plan and he wasn't worried. >> reporter: in the last several years hunter biden's finances have come under intense public scrutiny. biden announced in december 2020 that federal investigators had been probing his tax affairs and foreign business dealings. sources telling abc news part of the investigation includes hunter biden's work with the natural gas firm based in ukraine called burisma where he served on the board from 2014 to 2019. the investigation is ongoing. biden has not been charged with a crime. >> if you were called to testify would you have anything to say? >> no. i have buried my head in the sand. i really hope that's a lesson
7:35 am
that women hear. understand your finances. take responsibility for them. >> when i sat down with hunter back in 2019, i asked specifically whether or not he would have been asked to be on that burisma board if his last name hasn't been biden and he said to me, i don't know, probably not. idon't think there's a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn't biden. would you agree with that? >> not entirely. trying to get someone to parse out what parts of their life, you know, came from their parents is in my mind not a healthy exercise. so i think he has always acknowledged the benefit and advantage of coming from a prominent family. >> did he deliberately curry favor or seek profit based on who his father was? that's the question people ask. in your experience as his wife
7:36 am
did you see that? >> i saw someone who loved his father, respected his parents and was proud to be their son. it was here that i walk with my girlfriends. >> reporter: buhle also recounts the day she learned of biden's relationship with her late brother-in-law's widow after beau passed away, but while she and hunter were still married. she says one of her daughters found text messages between her father and their aunt on his phone and called their therapist to talk to kathleen. >> did joe biden talk to you? i don't know how that made you feel saying they supported the relationship between hunter and hayley. >> the one thing i've never ever qustioned was joe and jill's love and attention to my three daughters. divorce was hard on all of us because we were very close but we come together out of a shared love for my daughters. >> reporter: after their
7:37 am
divorce, another battle. buhle learning she had stage 3 colon cancer. >> nobody in my family had colon cancer. i'm a runner, relatively healthy. so when she said that i had cancer within minutes i thought can't believe i was that upset about divorce. >> reporter: she says she is now looking ahead to the next chapter of her life. >> why did you decide to go back to your maiden name? >> because i think the biden name was so much a part of my identity. i mean, the idea that i was a 49-year-old college-educated woman with a community of support, you know, relatively smart, i really felt like i couldn't make it on my own. that's crazy. it was frightening, but i did it and it felt empowering. i wrote, this is not a story about who is right and who is wrong. i really tried to keep it to
7:38 am
what was my relationship to hunter's addiction, where was i in my marriage in the choices i made. this is my story, the story of kathleen buhle. >> as for what's next for kathleen she has co-founded a new women's club, the house of 29. she says it's a way to give back to the community that helped her, supported her through those tough times. abc news reached out to the white house and hunter biden for comment. they have not responded. kathleen said when she told hunter she was writing this book, he said it sounds like it was cathartic to her, which it was. her memoir "if we break" is available now. >> she did go through some tough times. >> yes, she did. >> thank you, amy. coming up, high temperatures leading to soaring energy bills. the expert tips to keep you cool and also save some cash. rt tipsl and also save some cash. moderate to severe bute rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis, enbrel can help you say i'm in for what's next.

costs to get worse. as the temperatures climb -- >> it's hot. i can't breathe. i can barely talk. >> reporter: -- so do utility bills. >> having to watch the way that the gas and the groceries went skyrocketing, i'm really nervous to see what the air-conditioning costs are going to be. not being able to plan for that is scary. >> reporter: and according to the u.s. energy information administration, many regions across the country are seeing price hikes. >> you're seeing overall inflation rampant across the country and seeing strong demand across the board in energy. >> reporter: experts like scott fisher says there are ways to save money this summer. fisher's biggest tip -- perform an energy audit where you or a technician examines the entire home for energy inefficiencies. >> that audit will provide you with a list of recommendations, things that are specific and unique to your home that you can go ahead install or upgrade. >> reporter: according to the department of energy, you can save as much as 10% a year on cooling by simply turning your thermostat up seven to ten
7:44 am
degrees for eight hours a day. other little things that can add up, unplug devices you aren't using. let your dishes air dry instead of using the drying cycle on your dishwasher. lower the temperature on your hot water heater and if you use a window cooling unit, fisher says isolate areas you want to keep cool. >> you could potentially section off different areas of your home and keep them at different temperatures. >> here are a few more tips. if you're going away for the summer, don't turn the ac completely off. you don't want the house to get too hot. my husband and i are guilty of doing that. set it around 80 if you're gone for a long period of time and close all the curtains and blinds. also, something as simple as turning on a fan can help air circulate better and make it feel a lot cooler. >> makes a lot of sense. >> any more confessions you and your husband do? >> he's guilty of it too. >> thank you so much. coming up here, our "play of the day." it is a practice that every

8:06 am
really improve at least the testing results on these 20-meter shuttles. >> okay, what are we talking about when we say vigorous? >> that's the key. if you really look at what they used in their study criteria, we know that vigorous testing, you should not be able to carry on a conversation or actually speak in full sentences while you're exercising, i like to use something a little more objective, something called heart rate zone, so that's a clculation, you can look it up online, it's based on your heart rate. zone four or five is vigorous activity, moderate, you can talk during exercise, you're at heart rate zones, two or three. i do want to mention even in the young age group, teenagers with sickle cell anemia, any history of heart problems should talk to their pediatrician before starting a vigorous physical activity program. but, listen, you guys can carry on full conversations while you're running ten miles so there's hope for anyone. >> well, we appreciate that. >> but i don't like to.

8:21 am

8:31 am
>> no, no. if i just sat with myself, i find it in myself, there wouldn't be -- no, i think it's kind of a frankenstein of many different behaviors that i have seen during my career. of course, everything is a little bit exaggerated. we put a magnifying glass, not only the ego of the character that i play but there are different ways to express ego and vanity and pretentiousness. he has his own personality and the crash that is produced by this, you know, personality is what makes the movie very funny and actually very interesting to watch because there's some truth going on in that. >> penelope cruz and you have been friends. you met in new york in the '90s. now you're getting to co-star with her finally. what's that like? >> it was beautiful because we have been friends for a long time. i mean -- when i met her i was

8:34 am
i never had to cut scenes in the middle of shooting them except in this movie because my co-stars were so funny. it was impossible sometimes just to shoot and we got the giggles. it was impossible. we did a lot of times, believe me, because some of the situations are very close to reality. >> seems like it. >> and vanity and ego is part not only of the, you know, show business, if we go to politics, wow. [ laughter ] you're going to find much more funny or not. >> maybe you can have a sequel. >> why not? >> george, want to take the politics follow-up there? you talk about the movies you have done, a first there in having to cut scenes like that, but your career spans now 30 years in hollywood.

8:43 am
>> reporter: thank you, amy. a ray , here but, boy, was it not where those babies were just born. kansas city was in a heat advisory. they felt as hot as 105. look at cincinnati this mornini which extends back to chicago. so this is real heat talking about when you take time outdoors or work outside this can go from, boy, that's uncomfortable to dangerous heat. even minneapolis finds themselves in excessive heat warnings. >> sunshine, warmer temperatures, 70's 80's around the shoreline, warmest day tomorrow, cooling by the end of the week. so, yes, everyone, ginger is in philadelphia this morning. she is kicking off our "gma's" closer to home tour traveling around the country all summer long checking out the beautiful blooms and bountiful gardens and finding ways to make them good for the planet. ginger, i know you met up with
8:44 am
the experts at the philadelphia flower show. you're learning how to garden for the greater good. also want to point out love the themed jacket you're wearing. >> reporter: thank you, yes. if you don't wear flowers to the flower show i don't know who you are. but, of course, we had storms kicking off our closer to home tour and, you know, coming here and talking sustainability, that is my jam. so americans use 9 billion gallons of water a day just for our lawns. now imagine if that went to making food or wildlife habitat. they're telling us here at the philadelphia flower show that not everything green in our gardens is good for the planet but you can change that. our garden is an extension of us. >> your garden is part of a broader whole. as your garden grows in health you're actually helping the environment. >> reporter: now, that's if you follow some simple rules. at the philadelphia flower show we got three tips to garden for good. number one, buy from local nurseries and choose native plants.
8:45 am
>> so native plants also then often need or require no extra water. >> no -- yeah, no chemicals, no extra water. they're suited to climate. they can take the sunlight. it's just a far better choice, less maintenance for you also. >> reporter: number two, reduce your lawn. make your space productive. >> why have grass when you can have food and this thing that is doing things for other elements. >> instead of a white picket fence with a just green grass lawn it's now a pollinator garden. >> yes. >> reporter: number three, share and conserve. don't let that rainwater go. >> so if we've got rain barrels, they can be beautiful and you're also enhancing the good that you do because you're holding that rainwater before you just sort of send it off to the next spot. >> a lot of people watching right now are like, i live in the city, i can't do this. >> you can. totally. you can garden anywhere. tabletop piece is a great way to start. >> reporter: and even tabletop composting. i'm a big composter and it's so much easier than people think. it also if all of us started
8:46 am
composting would be the equivalent of taking 7.8 million cars off the roads. now i compost in something called keyhole composting. it's inside the raised beds i have. it holds on to 2 1/2 times the water and what you're seeing in the pictures, a happy surprise. some of our compost grew into plants. like i wasn't even planting honeydew, but we'll have honeydew, pumpkin, squash, all happy surprises, and it's great for the soil and great for the environment around it. amy, i got to come clean. this isn't my jacket. i'm sharing, not just sharing but this is samantha's. she brought it. >> even that's green, right? >> reporter: sustainable, yes. >> yay. thank you very much, ginger. we appreciate it. coming up, our friend keke palmer is joining us live to talk about all about her new movie "lightyear." stay with us. ♪
8:48 am
8:49 am
we are so excited to welcome our next guest. she is absolutely a friend of our show here, one of our absolute favorites, and she's now heading to infinity and beyond, disney pixar's "lightyear," she's starring in it and live from london, there she is, everybody, keke palmer with that smiling face. it is so good to see you. >> how you doing, t.j.? >> of all you've done now, keke, in your career and all that you got coming in your career, you are now an action figure that's right next to you. how big of a deal is that? >> oh. oh, my gosh, it's a huge deal. obviously i grew up on "toy story" and i love buzz lightyear and so to be part of "lightyear" and have an action figure is pretty insane. i'm so thankful. >> to that point you were essentially a baby when "toy story," the first one came out. what is it? it's one thing to have a role but to have a role that played a role in your life, put that in some kind of perspective for me. >> i mean, it's just so awesome. i grew up with it. i know the impact it had on me
8:50 am
growing up as a kid so to get the opportunity to be a part of this story, this time around and know that other little girls are going to be able to not only see this and hopefully it impacts them but see somebody that represents them like the character izzy hawthorne and it makes me feel awesome. let's take a look at a clip and i'll ask you about it on the other side. >> thought i heard one. >> a robot? >> yeah. >> impressed. >> well, i'm a hawthorne. >> you sure are. you know your grandma and i could practically finish each other's sentences. if you're anything like -- >> going to make some robots cry. >> to your point about the representation there, we see a young, black, strong space cadet essentially in this movie. you know, this is more than just a character. this is meaningful to see this.
8:51 am
>> yes, it is. and essentially "lightyear" is the movie that andy watched that made him fall in love with the character buzz. so really this is the prequel and saying that characters like izzy have always been a part of the story. they've always been heroes and leaders in their own right and now that's going to be showcased in "lightyear." >> tell folks who are thinking about -- and i guess is it the right way to set this up, a buzz lightyear -- it's not necessarily an origin story, it's a backstory. how would you describe it? >> well, you know, when you think about "toy story" andy had a toy that he really loved named buzz lightyear but he loved it because he saw a movie and that movie was "lightyear" and we got the opportunity to be a prequel to the origin story of the character buzz and we get to introduce you to all the characters that made that world possible and izzy's grandmother who kind of helped, you know, buzz create to infinity an ou go to space if you >>owhold on now. i mean, i need people to like tell me they've done it a couple
8:52 am
times before i put myself out there. i'm not going to be the guinea pig. >> you need a few more test flights is what i'm hearing before you get on board. >> yes. >> i got you. something else and so much is coming your way and so much we'll be seeing you incoming up. there's a new trailer for a movie you're starring in, of course, we're talking about jordan poole's "nope." this second trailer looks so much different from the first one we saw. it seems to have a different tone to it. tell us how you excited you are for people to see this next month. >> i'm very excited. it's very hard to hold secrets. i'm not really a secret holder but this is just again another one of jordan's great works and i'm excited to see what people take from it, because it's adventure and horror and a lot going on and excited for it to be out in the stratosphere. >> there is a whole lot going on. you have so much going on. keke, we're always, always love having you here and love rooting for you and congratulations. i'm sure we'll see you really
