spectacular. >> is this a super-duper moon? >> this is the supermoon. it is the closest it's been since 1948. the earth's -- the moon's orbit is like an elliptical. it is like it is balancing right there on the arch. >> look at these photographs! >> brian and i went out about 6:30 last night with a camera to took us forever to find the moon. we finally saw it really high up in the sky so it didn't have that wow factor. what is the best time to see it. >> >> depends where you are and your sky conditions. >> we're in the city. >> clearly. >> buildings shine brighter. is that times square or the supermoon? >> it is going to appear 14% bigger. 30% brighter.

from the earth is about 238,000 miles. >> if i'm ever on a game show and i get a lifeline, one call. listen. you can say to me, any name in the book -- al roker. his line's busy? call him again. >> that show's from the '90s. >> i don't care. it is incredible. your ability to retain things. >> it is an event, you're going to look stuff up. >> but you remembered it. >> the next time this isn't going to be will be 2034. >> that's only 15 years away. so i'm 46. how old -- >> 15 years away, you'll be 61. >> it is not that far away. which is crazy. but december has one. that's not as super.

the moon, what were you doing? >> i was doing absolutely nothing. >> i thought you were bringing the tree in. >> i did bring the tree in. but before that i was doing nothing. >> what was brian doing? >> brian told me to put my feet up and just sit and let him take care of the chores. brian's vacuuming. he likes to make up songs when he does it. >> doing a little "risky business" there. >> he vacuumed t about 16 times. but still it was great entertainment. >> i see a new challenge coming on. >> forget the juju on the beat. we, ladies and gentlemen, have the brian challenge. >> the weird thing was i posted that on instagram. so many people were commenting on his footwear. they were like, is he wearing your slippers? what's on his feet? they're just socks. yeah. so i was -- those are my feet on the table. so i was doing absolutely nothing as he was entertaining

>> that's pretty cool. >> that's basically what happens on a daily basis. we did bring the tree in. saturday morning which is unusual for it to be on a saturday. veterans day was friday. we brought in the tree. they wouldn't let me actually ride the tree. the tree is 16 feet taller than last year. it i >> when we saw it at the home, that trees looks enormous. >> it powered over the family's home. >> what floor is that in this building? i think that's near my office. i can jump out. >> i'm going to dress like buddy the elf.

as you can get. shape is great. 84th rockefeller center christmas tree lighting ceremony takes place on wednesday, november 30th. it is a little earlier. why? >> because thanksgiving is a little earlier. i think it is because of leap year. matt, savannah, myself and hoda kotb lighting it up. and then at 9:00, we get lit. >> he l >> tree gets lit at 8:55, 9:00 p.m. we all get lit. join us, we'll have a drinking game. >> i want to play. what did i do this weekend? >> i went out -- i said, al, i wanted to go somewhere, i wanted to drive two hours away from the

you suggested this beautiful place called the wheatley. it is in lenox, massachusetts. we drove up there. i've been taking photography classes online. then i get advice. >> this is the class. have somebody take a picture of you. >> you're holding a camera. >> that's my picture. i went through and looked a they are of someone taking pictures of me and i did not take very many pictures. so i -- my name is tamron, as you know. >> yes. got that. >> a popular lens is the tamron. spelled exactly like my name. it is a japanese camera company. i was born in texas. and it was around the same time that someone at this camera lens

>> had gone to texas -- >> saw my name. >> let's name a lens after her. >> i felt like it was only right for tamron to own a tamron lens. >> but tamron should take pictures with the tamron lens. >> the problem is it is a very complex lens. i'm still learning. i'm working on it but i am going to i am going to take the "today's take" holiday pictures. >> donald trump made his first picks for chief of staff. rnc chair reince priebus and chief strategist is steve bannon, former head of the conservative news site, breitbart. >> which is highly controversial. highly controversial decision made there.

think of valley jarrett, she was president obama's senior advisor. that's what his role essentially at this point is described as. last night on "60 minutes," donald trump in his first tv interview since becoming president-elect, with leslie stahl, one of the best in the business. talking about the racial slurs that continue to divide this country. here's what he had to say about those allegations. >> i am very surprised to hear that. i hate to hear tha >> but you do hear it. >> i don't hear it. i saw one or two instances. >> on social media? >> it is a very small amount. again, i think -- >> do you want to say anything to those people? >> i would say don't do it. that's terrible. because i'm going to bring this country together. >> they're harassing latinos, muslims. >> i am so saddened to hear that. and i say stop it. if it -- if it helps, i will say this -- i'll say it right to the

topics, including the enormity of becoming president of the greatest country. here's what he said. >> i think so. it is enormous. i've done a lot of big things. i've never done anything like this. it is so big. it is so enormous. >> kind of just took your breath away. couldn't talk. >> a little bit. a little bit. and i think i realize that this is a whole different life for me now. tweeting and whatever you're upset about, just put out there? >> so -- >> when you're president? >> it is a modern form of communication between facebook and twitter, and i guess instagram. i have 28 million people. >> so you are going to keep it up. >> i'm going to do very restrained, if i use it at all. i'm going to do very restrained. i find it tremendous -- it is a modern form of communication. there should be nothing you

the office, obviously voters wanted an outsider, that was the number one plea. there is is a report now because donald trump is such an outsider, he did not know you have to staff the west wing. like he does not know the mechanics of it. because he never ran for office and is the ultimate outsider. >> i think one interesting thing this be he is not going to take the $400,000 annual salary. he's going to take $1 a year. but i think the enormity of it was kind of obvious. when he came after that out of the obama. i think he seemed almost humbled by what he is about to step into. >> if he did not have that feeling, i know people have said is he a narcissist and all these things about him. but whatever extreme ego you may have, walking into capitol hill, looking out and knowing that now you are making decisions that will impact not just the 330 million people in this country, you impact the world.

when you color your hair with preference, it's a love thing. in each luminous shade. preference is uniquely blended to be dimensional and fade defying up to 8 weeks. superior preference from l'or?al hair colorist/paris i'm hall of famer jerry west and my life is basketball. but that doesn't stop my afib from leaving me at a higher risk of stroke. that'd be devastating. i took warfarin for over 15 years until i learned more about once-daily xarelto... a latest generation blood thinner.

heart valve problem. it has similar effectiveness to warfarin. warfarin interferes with vitamin k and at least six blood clotting factors. xarelto? is selective targeting one critical factor of your body's natural clotting function. for people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. like all blood thinners, don't stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto can cause serious, and in rare cases fatal bleeding. get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto

to help protect yourself from a stroke, ask your doctor about xarelto. there's more to know. xarelto. we're back now with more of "today's take." >> we only have two minutes. >> let's just hit it. here's what happened. jo and lela planned to find out whether they were having a they had one of those popular gender reveal parties. this is what happened. >> went to the local party store. look what happened. >> you're having a puppy! >> the store apparently got it wrong. >> they searched the box. they find a sealed card. they used balloons the couple
