scandals and why he calls his church a dysfunctional family. it's tuesday, october 29th, 2019. here's today's "eye opener," your world in 90 seconds. >> if you're in the mandatory evacuation zone and you're still there watching this, you're an idiot. get the hell out. >> reporter: california launches an investigation into pg&e. >> california's utility company is planning to cut more power again. >> it was really scary because the fire could catch on our house, and i could literally see the flames up in the sky. >> reporter: the house will vote this week to affirm the impeachment inquiry. today investigators hear testimony from a current white house official. >> reporter: president trump made his first official visit to chicago. the president criticized the city's crime rate. >> it's embarrassing to us as a nation. afghanistan is a safe place by comparison. >> reporter: a man suspected of opening fire at an off-campus college party in texas killing two people has been arrested. >> we believe one person was targeted.

>> reporter: at least six people killed when a magnitude 6.6 earthquake struck the philippines. the mission that killed the leader of isis. man's best friend helped to corner the most wanted terrorist. all that -- >> the steelers rally back with 27 unanswered points. [ cheers ] >> what an effort! and all that matters -- >> lebron james among those forced to evacuate their homes due to the wildfires. he tweeted that he was looking for a place for his family to stay. >> i feel like lebron could have knocked on any door in l.a. and been like, yeah, sure, stay for taco tuesday. on "cbs this morning." >> grabbed our family, grabbed our belongings and evacuated our house. i was thinking, these firefighters, these men and women, they've left their families in their houses and they're driving toward the fire. and i -- i want to take this moment to say the biggest thank you to the brave men and women out there right now fighting those fires on our behalf.

you are absolute heroes to us, and we cannot thank you enough. >> this morning's "eye opener" is presented by toyota -- let's go places. >> bravo to james corden. that's an excellent point. we don't always think about that. while we're all running out, they're running in. >> those pictures are terrifying. >> yes. very nice to give them a shout out. very important. we're going to get to more on the fires in a minute. we're going to begin with this -- for the first time the house impeachment investigators are hearing testimony from someone who was actually on the call between president trump and ukraine's president. his name is lieutenant colonel alexander vindman. the white house's top national security expert on ukraine. he will testify to lawmakers that he told his superiors twice that military aid was being improperly tied to politics. >> this morning's interview comes two days before house speaker nancy pelosi plans to hold the first formal vote on the impeachment inquiry. nancy cordes is on capitol hill.

why is vindman's testimony so significant? >> reporter: well, because he is the first current white house official to testify and because he is saying in his opening statement that he found the president's actions improper, and that he even went to white house lawyers this summer to warn that mr. trump had asked his ukrainian counterpart to investigate a campaign rival. alexander vindman is an iraq war veteran who oversees ukraine policy at the national security council. he'll tell congressional investigators today that he grew concerned after listening in on the president's july phone call. "i did not think it was proper to demand that a foreign government investigate a u.s. citizen." the request to investigate biden and his son had nothing to do with national security, he says. adding that he warned nsc's lead counsel that such a partisan play would undoubtedly result in ukraine losing the bipartisan

support it has thus far maintained. this would all undermine u.s. national security. >> there was no anything. there was no pressure put on him. no anything. >> reporter: the president continues to deny that he withheld military aid and a coveted meeting in an attempt to extract those promises. but the evidence to the contrary is piling up. house democrats will introduce a resolution this week laying out procedures for public hearings and outlining due process rights for the president and his counsel. >> the resolution will set forth procedures that the committee will use. >> reporter: republicans who had pushed for such a vote slammed the decision. >> i strongly oppose any attempt to legitimize this soviet-style impeachment process. >> reporter: the white house says it may not cooperate even if the resolution passes. >> just proves our point that this -- this was illegitimate and ill conceived from the beginning. >> nancy, house speaker nancy

pelosi sent a letter to her democratic colleagues announcing this new resolution. what's behind that move? >> reporter: well, she says that this is just meant to lay out procedures for the next phase in this impeachment inquiry, and that she's not bowing to gop pressure to hold a vote. at the same time, anthony, here's how she describes the vote. she says, quote, it should eliminate any doubt as to whether the trump administration may withhold documents, prevent witness testimony, or continue obstructing the house of representatives. the white house demanded this vote, but now aides tell us they are not going to decide whether to cooperate until they get to see whether the president is granted all the due process rights that they've been demanding, including the right to call and cross examine their own witnesses. >> nancy cordes at the capitol. thanks. let's get to the fires in california where powerful new winds could bring more devastation to parts of the state already ravaged by wildfires. crews battling the massive

kincade fire in northern california's wine country fear the wind could fan the flames. it has burned an area more than twice the size of san francisco and destroyed nearly 60 homes. jonathan vigliotti is in healdsburg, california. good morning. many people are living without power? >> reporter: yeah, that's correct. good morning. even with the power cut off, i want to show you what some homes face. the flames ripping through. this one and many others. this is the outside of it. through there you could see what we believe was the living room. about 500,000 people at this hour are still in the dark. many more evacuated. don't even know the fate of their homes. as this state faces a climate crisis, pg&e says their only option has been to turn off this power. now the state is investigating the utility's strategy and the threat it poses to the people caught in the middle of it. california's largest utility,

pg&e, now says two fires that broke out sunday, less than 20 miles northeast of san francisco, in lafayette, including one that destroyed this tennis club, may have been caused by its own electrical malfunctions. despite cutting power to more than 2.5 million people, the electricity was not turned off in the area because it wasn't designated as high risk. >> if we did go into a mode where we wanted to prevent everything from happening, then we'd have to shut the whole system down, and that's not acceptable. >> reporter: the utility also says it failed to notify 23,000 customers, including 500 with medical conditions, before shutting off their power. >> we're going to investigate all of this. and we're going to make a determination as to culpability. >> reporter: six days after the kincade fire first ignited, firefighters are scrambling to put out hot spots in hopes of getting an upper hand before wind gusts reaching as high as 50 miles an hour kick up again.

>> the winds will carry burning materials sometimes miles ahead of the fire. we're having to go around and one by one deal with those and mitigate those dangers as they pop up which is always a difficulty. it being dynamic and not just a set fire line. >> reporter: and in southern california where high winds fueled the getty fire monday, authorities are manning their fire lines with additional personnel. their concern, predicted gusts of up to 80 miles an hour. >> i've asked my command staff to do everything possible to ensure that the line is as cold as possible before those winds kick up. >> reporter: with the wind expected to pick up later today, pg&e is already warning they could conduct their third power cut in less than one week. gayle, that means nearly four million people could be in the dark. >> boy, jonathan, those pictures are unbelievable. we look at you standing there in the quiet and the darkness, and you see the flames, and you think people are fighting the fires, what they have to breathe and the smoke and the heat. it's terrifying really to watch it.

thank you very much. a powerful and deadly earthquake rocked the southern philippines overnight. the 6.6-magnitude quake shook buildings. at least six people were killed. more than 100 others were hurt. the quake disrupted the area's power supply. seismic activity is common in the philippines. it lies in the so-called ring of fire. that's a ring of faults around the pacific ocean where most of the world's earthquakes occur. the pentagon is declassifying video and photos of the raid that killed isis leader abu bakr al baghdadi. they could be released by tomorrow. meanwhile, president trump is praising the dog that cornered al baghdadi at his hideout in northwestern syria. david martin is at the pentagon. david, good morning. what more do we know today about this mission? >> reporter: well, we know that after further dna testing to confirm his identity, al baghdadi's remains were buried at sea. al baghdadi may be dead, but isis is not.

and the mission now is to use the intelligence collected in saturday's raid to go after the rest of the network. his death marks a devastating blow for the remnants of isis. >> reporter: the delta force that led the raid spent about two hours at al baghdadi's compound. >> they executed the raid brilliantly. >> reporter: the u.s. came away with cell phones and laptops which potentially can point the delta force in the direction of other isis hideouts. how much material did you take away? >> there was material taken away. i don't want to characterize exactly what or how much yet until it gets exploited properly. >> reporter: this is the delta dog which chased al baghdadi down a dead-end tunnel where he set off his suicide vest killing himself and three children with him. five other people were killed in the compound by the delta force. two were captured. >> there were two adult males taken off the objective alive. they're in our custody.

>> reporter: those lieutenants may be able to shed light on what happened to kayla mueller. a young aid worker that had been captured and brutalized. the raid was named after kayla. her parents spoke on monday. >> until we have her home we truly don't know what happened to her. >> the lieutenants have been captured. who else would know what happened to kayla but these people close to him. >> reporter: we're also learning more about how the u.s. found al baghdadi. general mazloum said the kurds had an inform answer within baghdadi's innerer kell. the informant reportedly tracked down baghdadi for months and provided a floor plan of his hideout including the number of guards and location of tunnels. president trump says al baghdadi was the only isis leader he cared about getting because his was the only name people recognized. but the day after the raid, a cia drone strike killed the

chief spokesman for isis, a man once considered a potential successor to al baghdadi. >> david, thank you. this morning, boeing's ceo faces questions from congress for the first time about the company's grounded 737 max planes. in an opinion piece, the head of the faa said the agency is committed to addressing recommendations on when, whether, the 737 max will return to service. two 737 max crashes killed 346 people in the past year. kris van cleave is on capitol hill. what can boeing's ceo expect from lawmakers? >> reporter: well, good morning. we expect tough questions. this is the one year anniversary of the first 737 max crash. and we understand that muilenburg will begin his testimony offering his deepe eet

civ sympathies and also expected to express confidence in the changes practice. after months of demanding answers from boeing, more than hay dozen family members who lost loved ones in the 737 max crashes are expected to attend the hearings. >> while all your lives moved on, for the last six months my life has not moved an inch. >> reporter: lawmakers will grill boeing's ceo over the course of two days. house transportation chair peter defazio -- do you expect it to be a tense hearing. >> i don't see how it would be anything other than tense. this is an extraordinary failure, and how did the system fail this badly? how did boeing, a great company, fail this badly? >> reporter: the max has been grounded since march as boeing finishes software updates and awaits faa approval to resume flying. costing u.s. airlines over $1 billion so far.

united's ceo, oscar munoz -- >> people are going to be concerned because a regulator or manufacturer says it's safe, they have to be convinced themselves. our job is to convince them. >> reporter: united, american airlines, and southwest are standing by the plane, pending new training requirements and faa approval. they are hoping to return it to service early next year. in june, about 80% of flyers surveyed said they'd look to avoid the max. >> let somebody else be the guinea pig. pretty safe.a certifies it, it's >> reporter: boeing fired the president of the commercial airline division and ceo dennis muilenburg has been stripped of his chairman title. >> i think they need new leadership. >> reporter: you chk think muilenburg needs to go? >> yeah. i don't think big -- big penalty, he's removed as chairman of the board and ceo of the company. i doubt that impacts his compensation very much, and he's still on the board. that doesn't seem to me like some real accountability.

>> reporter: the senate today, we expect some of them to focus on an exchange between two boeing test pilots that appeared to show concerns about the max nearly two years before that lion air crash. boeing was aware of that document for months before it was handed over to lawmakers. something that has raised anger on the hill. >> all this on the one-year anniversary of the first crash. thank you so much. prosecutors want a former student from korea to return to the u.s. to face an involuntary manslaughter charge after her college boyfriend died by suicide. they allege inyoung you encouraged him to take his own life. alexander urtula died on his graduation day back in may. the case focuses texts his girlfriend sent him, and it's drawing comparisons to another upsetting case in massachusetts. mola lenghi is at boston

college, that's where the couple went to school. good morning. what else do we know? >> reporter: good morning. prosecutors say that this is a case of domestic violence. they claim that miss you engaged in a, quote, utter attack on her boyfriend's will, conscience, and psyche, and did so mostly over text message. they say that she was even tracking his movements on her phone and that she was there when he died. >> miss you was physically, verbally, and psychologically abusive toward mr. urtula during their 18-month-long relationship. >> reporter: suffolk county district attorney rachel rollins claims the 21-year-old encouraged her boyfriend to kill himself thousands of times. >> abuse became more frequent and more powerful in the days and hours leading up to mr. urtula's untimely death. >> reporter: according to prosecutors, the boston college

students exchanged 75,000 text messages in the two months leading up to urtula's death. 47,000 came from you and included messages like "go kill yourself" and "go die." >> many of the messages clearly display the power dynamic in the relationship. >> reporter: the district attorney's office says you was aware of urtula's spiraling depression and suicidal thoughts brought on by her abuse. she's now facing one charge of involuntary manslaughter. it's the same charge in the same state that sent michelle carter to jail after she was found guilty for the 2014 suicide of her friend conrad roy. massachusetts prosecutors alleged carter relentlessly encouraged the teen to kill himself over text. her attorneys are appealing her conviction to the u.s. supreme court. >> this indictment would not have been filed if it were not for the michelle carter case. >> reporter: cbs news legal analyst rikki klieman says this case is different because of its international scope. >> the fact that the defendant

is in south korea is going to make this case much more complicated. if she wants to go through the process of contesting extradition, it could take years to get her here. >> reporter: the district attorney's office here says that she is cautiously optimistic that you will voluntarily return from south korea back here to the united states to face that involuntary manslaughter charge. if she does not, they say they will seek extradition. cbs news has been unsuccessful in tracking down you's attorney in south korea. anthony? >> such a disturbing story. thank you. a grandfather faces charges in the death of a toddler who fell from a cruise ship window. ahead, why the little girl's family believes the charge is unfair. well it is a hazy smokey start to the day. also chilly as we head through the afternoon looking at that hazy sunshine. seasonal daytime highs. the winds will start to pick up this afternoon and especially

there's a new government whistleblower targeting the trump administration. this time at the cdc. a top scientist there tells cbs news the agency backed away from its fight against climate change and even talked about using different terminology over fears of antagonizing the administration. the whistleblower was the head of the cdc's climate and health program until last year when he was reassigned. mark strassmann spoke to him and is at cdc headquarters in atlanta.

who is this whistleblower? >> reporter: good morning. his name is dr. george luver, and he's worked at the cdc for 17 years. the agency made him its public face of climate science and its effect on diseases until the day his bosses wanted him gone. george luber was such a celebrated scientist he hung out with other stars like matt damon. they flew around los angeles in the showtime special "talking about rising temperatures." >> it's a small field, but i'm one of the -- the world's experts. i wrote what i like to think of as definitive textbook on the subject. >> reporter: in late 2016, luber was organizing a cdc climate change conference. al gore wasto be the keynote speaker. right after donald trump was elected president, luber's boss called him in. >> i was told the optics are not good and that i needed to cancel it. >> reporter: did he explain what

the optics issue was? >> the meeting was happening three weeks after the inauguration. >> reporter: the white house would be unhappy? >> yeah. >> reporter: america's new president had a dim view of luber's science. >> global warming and -- a lot of it's a hoax. >> reporter: luber says his boss wanted something else. >> just don't say climate change. can you call it extreme weather? can you call it -- something else? >> reporter: you're saying that the centers for disease control was afraid to use the term climate change? >> yeah. absolutely. i was told to use a different term. >> reporter: in march, 2018, the cdc revoked luber's badge, phone, and credentials. he was escorted off the property. the cdc moved to fire him. luber faced more than 30 troubling allegations from falsifying time cards to seeming hung over. he refuted all but one charge and was allowed to stay. luber says the cdc dismantled his climate and health program which the agency denies.

>> the program has not changed. the embargo is the same. it was -- the program was the same. it was placed in a different administrative unit. >> reporter: at the cdc dr. patrick bricey is luber's boss, the manager who ordered him to scuttle the science conference. >> it wasn't canceled. we post pope phoostponed it. >> reporter: you didn't feel pressure? >> not politically no. >> reporter: that conference happened but without cdc sponsorship. were any cdc employees told "stop using that phrase climate change"? >> not to my knowledge, but we did discuss it. >> reporter: you changed from climate change to extreme weather because -- because climate change was more radioactive. >> we never made that change. we talked about possibly making the change, but we never made the change. >> reporter: what's unchanged, bricey insists, is the cdc's commitment to studying climate science but without its star, george luber. i asked bricey why. >> i can't talk about personnel matters. i'm sorry, mark. >> reporter: has he been banned from the campus?

>> so that's a personnel matter that i don't discuss. >> reporter: is the cdc retaliating against him? >> i -- i'm not going to comment on that. >> reporter: luber still works at the cdc, but potentially faces up to a four-month suspension. he has to work from home where he reviews scientific papers unrelated to climate change. >> i do not want media attention, i never did with this. and i -- let me do my work. >> reporter: luber's whistleblower complaint is still under review. it also alleges the cdc illegally misspent $10 million that congress had set aside for climate change research. the agency denies that. >> meanwhile the science remains the science, mark. thank you so much. vladimir duthiers is looking at the stories you'll be talking about today. what have you got? >> the ncaa might soon allow college athletes to make money off their fame. we'll show you the possible rule changes being discussed today. and we talk about this every

lawyers for the family of harry dunn are targeting the white house in the death of the 19-year-old in england. the family tells cbs news they are pursuing a civil suit against the trump administration as well as anne sacoolas. she is the wife of an american

official and was involved in that car crash that killed dunn. we have been following the case. why has the family chosen to do this? >> good morning. it's a step harry dunn's family says they hoped they would never have to take. nearly three months after he was killed in a head-on collision that anne sacoolas admits to causing, they're suing not only her but also the trump administration. here's what harry's stepsister told cbs news about why they're taking this to court -- >> in simple words, get her back on the plane to the u.k. donald trump has the authority to do that, and i can't understand why they're not. you know, she's a mum of three children. what example is this setting to her three children, a mum. a mum to a 5-year-old, how do you explain, you know, what's going on to them, and why is she hiding? it seems wrong. i don't understand why when something seems so simple to us.

>> reporter: sacoolas' immunity is of course an extremely complex issue, one that reached the highest levels of government here in the u.k. and that led harry dunn's parents all the way to the white house where they say they were shocked when president trump asked them to meet with anne sacoolas who was in an adjoining room. they declined that meeting saying they'd only meet with her in the u.k. and in the presence of counselors. that, of course, still hasn't happened. and so the family is now pursuing a civil case in the u.s. where they will accuse the administration of, and i quote here, lawless misconduct and will also be seeking damages. now we've reached out to sacoolas' lawyers and are still waiting for a reply. the legal battle is really just the latest chapter in what can only be described as an extraordinary campaign led by harry dunn's parents, a campaign for justice that isn't over. gayle? >> certainly continuing. i remember when they were here. thank you so much. when they were here at the table, they said if there had just been an apology from the very beginning this would not have turned into an international incident.

they said in the beginning, they didn't -- i don't know what they want now, but they weren't asking for prison time. they said she's a mother, they don't want to take a mother from her children. they wanted face to face to know she was sorry. >> quite a step. >> taking it to another level. more americans than ever say they are not religious. cardinal timothy dolan has heard that. he's in our toyota green room ready to tell us why faith, he says, there he is talking to david chang, ye of little faith -- still important. we'll talk about the issues that have turned people away. you are watching -- hello, cardinal dolan -- you are watching "cbs this morning." we'll be right back. ou're watching "cbs this morning." we'll be right back. a double. but dad, you've got allstate. with accident forgiveness they guarantee your rates won't go up just because of an accident. smart kid. indeed. are you in good hands? too many after-parties. new neutrogena® bright boost with dullness-fighting neoglucosamine.

religious beliefs in america are changing. a recent pew research center survey found 65% of american adults describe themselves as christians, but that is down 12% over just the past decade. 26% identify as atheists, agnostic, or nothing in particular.

that's up from just 17% in 2009. cardinal timothy doland is the roman catholic archbishop of new york, and his book is "who do you say i am: daily reflections on the bible, the saints, and the answer that is christ." he writes about the importance of god and faith in our everyday lives. cardinal dolan joins us first on "cbs this morning." cardinal -- >> hello to you. >> appreciate the invitation. >> welcome. >> thank you. you got me good because i'm usually here at christmas. i'm in the spirit already. thanks. >> very good. getting in the spirit for this segment, i looked at the devotional for this very day. and it is -- the first line is becoming more and more clear that our society is looking down on religion. and on that point, i think indisputably one of the reasons why is people look at these sex abuse scandals that the catholic church has been plunged into, and they wonder -- i say this as somebody who has three generations of catholics in new york, stopped with my

generation, i ask as a journalist but also as somebody with that lineage, how could this have happened and why the catholic church and not judaism, why did this engulf your religion in particular? >> sometimes we wonder that ourselves because it has engulfed all faiths, all levels of society and culture. it's a cultural societal problem. it's laser beamed on us because people expect more of the church. when the church creates this nauseating sin it's going to bring more attention to it, and it should. not only are -- have we in the past committed these sins, we're hypocritical because we're the ones who preached against it. and it upsets people that the very ones that are preaching against it have been guilty of it. >> you said at one point your mother was embarrassed to be a catholic. >> my lord. my own mom in a beautiful assisted living in missouri, she said, i'm not going down to the dining room. most of the time she said, oh, i like going because they're asking about you, your son who's the priest.

>> what did you say to your mother? >> i said, mom, i'm embarrassed, too. we're all embarrassed. out of this embarrassment, i trust is going to come renewal, hope, and reform. and i think it is. >> cardinal, i mean, this is decades long. there is a reckoning society -- you're right about that. and at all levels, all layers, all industries. at the same time, the catholic church is a decades' long scandal, thousands of victims, billions of dollars. >> yeah. >> in payments. is it not categorically different? it's set aside and apart? and what changes were made to fix what the problems were so that people who are still interested thinking about the next generation will come back? >> thanks for reminding us that there have been changes. and those changes started in 2002 with what we call the dallas charter which you all have been -- journalists have done a good job of reporting on. there was a tsunami shift in 2002 that the church said, hey, you know what, we've been an example of what not to do in the past. now we need to be an example of what to do. and the past 17, 18 years, there

would be tangible, verifiable data that we are ahead of this and that we cleaned up our act. you reported on it that what about three weeks ago, judge barbara jones acclaimed federal judge that i had asked a year ago, would you please, my people still don't seem to believe us that we have reformed and cleaned this up. would you do a scrupulous study of all the procedures that we've done in the archdiocese of new york? here's the key, no records are barred, and report back in a year. she did. she said, i give the archdiocese of new york an a. they have kept their promises. so boy, it was bad in the past. but i think now, i hope we're a sign of reform and the way to handle this. >> you got an a, but monsignor john paddock in your archdiocese was accused of molesting at least five boys for more than a decade. the allegations continued. he stepped down but was allowed to continue working, why?

what can you tell us about him? >> sure. thanks for asking. that was about ten years ago, an accusation came in against monsignor paddock. that's probably the one you meant, gayle. he was allowed to stay in. so by what the charter tells us to do, we hand it over to the police. they -- >> this year he was accused of molesting at least five boys for more than a decade. he denies the allegations. >> that's recent. the first one we looked -- the d.a. looked into forensic outside investigators looked into, and it went to the lay review board to say this charge is not credible. he was allowed back in. you're right, of late, other accusations came in. but there's a lot of people accused, but we look for -- there has to be some type of substantiation. that having been said, we finally said, john, this is not good. there's accusations coming in. yes, we have to look for substantiation. in the meantime, you need to step aside. what we've promised is that no priest against whom there's been a substantiated allegation can ever again serve in ministry. and that -- >> are you still supporting

paddock financially? >> yes, we are. yeah. yeah. he's still innocent until proven guilty. >> since the statute of limitations has been lifted, how many more lawsuits have been filed? >> oh, there's a -- we had already entered into the independent reconciliation and compensation program. that's four years old, that has been praised by victims and the public alike. and in that, there were about 350 victims that came forward and reported a sense of resolution and finality, and we're grateful to the church. >> we're getting -- i'm concerned about the time because i'm curious to get your thoughts on the group of catholic bishops that decided or advocating for men -- >> at the synod. yeah. >> what do you think about that? >> look, you know, this was what we call a synod -- >> yes -- >> an anything-goes roundtable and conversation. there's been synods since the mid '60s every three years. pope francis has sort of opened them up a bit. this was a regional synod in the amazon because he's worried about the environmental, the poverty -- >> do you think it's a good idea for priests to have the option

of marrying? >> i -- i'm glad they brought it up. i'm glad they talked about it. we act like it's a big secret, but heck, my barber asks me why priests can't get married. >> how do you feel? >> would you want -- would you like there to be a mrs. dolan? >> i would -- i -- >> be careful -- >> what are you doing tonight? >> look, i would love to be married and have kids. but you know what, pope paul vi said you shouldn't be a celibate if you don't want to be married and have kids. celibates are different than bachelors. celibates want to be a father and want to be a spouse, and they transfer it to their allegiance to the church which is their family. so a desire for -- to be a father and a husband is a healthy, normal, beautiful thing. and i've got it. but do i regret not being married? i might miss it, but right now, celibacy i find to be extraordinarily rewarding and liberating. >> all right. cardinal -- >> does that help? >> thank you. >> that does help. >> say the name of the book,

will you. >> the name of the book is "who do you say i am" -- >> a reflection for every day of the year. >> yes. daily reflections on the bible, the saints, and the answ -- >> right. i'm meteorologist mary lee. tracking hazy skies and offshore winds that will increase as we go through the day. hazy sunshine this afternoon. seasonal daytime highs. strong offshore winds will return as we head through the afternoon. especially up in the higher elevations with peak winds tonight. so an extreme fire danger. especially up in the north bay mountains. so the mountain gusts up to 65 valleys up to 35. and so really watching the north bay mountains with the wind advisory from today at noon. above a thousand feet. as we go through the day.

your premise is through three meals, what happens? >> we have good conversation, and explore the city. it's a sense of discovery about the guest or myself or the foods that we're eating. >> you pick a guest, they get to pick the city? >> uh-huh. >> how long does it take to shoot? you're with them all day long. >> we try to do it all within a day. sometimes it carries over the next day. but it's a long one day. but it's a good day. there's at least three meals for sure. >> it's amazing how many moments eating creates in conversation. >> yes. >> the best icebreaker there is. yeah. eating delicious food is -- like everyone can understand what that might feel like or taste like. >> your late friend anthony bourdain paved the way for a lot of shows like this. how did he influence -- how did his show and what he did influence what you're doing with your last show and now this one? >> well, tony's show, all the shows that he did, i think, influenced anyone that did food or travel or food and culture. it just set the bar for everyone.

so whatever we tried to do, to do it differently was to still pay homage to what he did for all of us. >> i was struck by something you said in the conversation with kate mckinnon in the show. you say i fundamentally don't believe i'm talented at anything because i have to work so much more than anyone else. like cooking doesn't come naturally to me. >> true. >> that was a surprise to me. >> you don't think of yourself as talented at anything? >> i think i'm a really good cook, but there are other people that started out who are better than i am. i just had to work like -- tortoise wins the race in my opinion, right. cooking is the one thing that a lack of natural talent doesn't have anything to do with where you're going to wind up if you just work very hard and are committed to it. i think i'm a result of that. >> you don't think you have a certain excitement for food or a palate or just a kind of big bear openness to the world? something that makes it magical? >> i think maybe i'm curious because i wasn't so good at it. >> does that connect then -- you said mamafuco is -- you know, as acclaimed as it is, you said almost everything we've done has been a failure from the get-go.

>> this is also true. >> you're a loser, david -- >> so interesting. >> true. >> failure doesn't intimidate you. >> i think you can't learn anything truly without messing things up. and experiencing some pain and suffering and trying not to make that same mistake twice. and to really push yourself, at least for myself, to -- to get to another level, i have to experience something that is sometimes scary and frightening, and to work through that. >> was it scary and frightening to be with seth rogen who you said rolls the best marijuana joints ever? and so we see you smoking marijuana and driving. i was worried about that. how did that work? you guys were really smoking it, too. >> my mom is going to be so mad. it was a fun day, but it was set up so there was nothing to be worried about in terms of how we were driving. i can't explain the technical -- >> the car was hitched to another vehicle.

>> it was -- my point is you get to learn a lot about the people who you're going -- who you are experiencing things with. you and chrissy teigen, you're in morocco. somebody says, hey, jackie khan. you laugh and say, see, people can still be racist all around the world. you make everything a delight with you. >> well, i think that's the best way to travel is to just experience things, be out of your comfort zone. and then just see another place and see the people there. and it doesn't mean that -- maybe they haven't seen an asian man before. >> right. >> yeah. >> it's interesting you said in 2030 you hope you reached the point -- >> go ahead and ask it. i love this question -- >> a lot of people at the table, you know they want to be remembered for all time. they want to be immortal. you told the "washington post" recently you hope by 2030 people say "david who?" want to be forgotten. why? >> it's incredibly foolish to want to be remembered when you die. it doesn't matter. like i think if -- if i do my job, however it may be, if it's good enough, then it becomes commonplace. it's not remembered anymore.

and that is through food, i think, and being an asian american in this country, i think if i can help open doors in a way where other people can do it, like it's a good thing. my job is successful if people don't remember me. >> well, it's a great show. david chang, thank you so much for being here. >> we can call him hugo's dad. >> yes. >> i want people to remember me. very nice. >> "breakfast, lunch, and dinner" is streaming on netflix. acclaimed singer/songwriter allison moore tells us about recovering from a childhood marked by tragedy. fi
