[laughter] so, again, craig thompson said you can think about a multicellular or nhl, it's almost like an agreement to eat only when they're told to eat. it's kind of a remarkable thing because all our cells have the ability to take up nutrients, but they don't. and we have this food distribution system which is regulated by hormones. and, you know, first and foremost, the hormone insulin which sort of tells which cells to take up nutrients and how to store them as fuel in our body. so to understand cancer as, you know, this permutation of overeating glucose, you have this question, well, what makes our cells take up glucose. and first and foremost, it's this hormone insulin. so if a cell is overeating glucose, you have that. the cell has too much insulin could that be a part of this story. could that be driving this, you know, what they call the warburg effect, the warburg metabolism. and sure enough, there is a remarkable body of evidence that insulin is plague a huge role in human -- playing a huge role in human cancers. it's a growth hormone that tells cells to eat and to divide an

you know, it really hit home for me when i saw a famous cancer scientist, craig thompson, president and ceo of memorial sloan kettering. he puts up a piece of bread and shows mold growing over it and it says this is everybody's cancer experiment. everybody's done this. this is what cancer does. that's sort of the rediscovery, and then the question that i was interested in is, okay, so cells -- cancer cells are getting more glucose than they should and they're proliferating, well, how does that -- you know, you always want to go one step, how does that happen? what does it have to do with our diet? for some cancer scientists, they're not interested in a diet. they're just interested in okay, this is what's happening. let's create a drug that can somehow block this. that's extremely important. and there are some amazing new drugs that have come out of this return to warburg. but, you know, i was interested in naturally, you know, well if a cancer cell is overeating, does that in any way affect how -- does our eating in any way affect that? >> yep. >> you know, what's really interesting to

different ways to think about cancer, it really hit home when i saw the famous cancer scientist craig thompson who is the president and ceo memorial and a piece of bread and he shows mold growing over a piece of bread and hean said ths is everybody's cancer experiment everybody has done this, this is what cancer does. so that is the rediscovery and the question i waste intereste in, cancer cells are getting more glucose than they should in the proliferating, you always want to go one step, how does that happen and what does have to do with her diet, for some c cancer scientist they are not interested in diets there interested in this is what set happening and we can create a drug and that is extremely important and amazing new drugs that have come out of this and return to warburg. i was interested in the cancer cells overeating in many ways and it affects that. what is really interesting to me as it comes together in the late 1990s because at the same time these cancer scientists are rediscovering that a cancer cell overeat glucose and that's fundamental to cancer and so fundamental but if yo

craig? >> thank you, mr. roker. >>> now to the stunning down fall of new york governor andrew cuomo over sexual harassment accusations. allegations. and it means the state will soon have its first female governor anne thompsonig. the sense of relief here is coupled with uncertainty over just what's going to happen with those impeachment proceedings, as new york's once powerful governor, andrew cuomo, prepares to leave office. with few options left, new york governor andrew cuomo this morning acknowledging a grim political reality that once seemed unthinkable >> and i think that given the circumstances, the best way i can help now is if i step aside. >> reporter: the third time democrat originally defiant in the wake of a bombshell report that he allegedly sexually harassed 11 women, now saying he's sorry to his accusers >> i deeply, deeply apologize. >> reporter: but still insisting he did nothing wrong >> in my mind, i've never crossed the line with anyone but i didn't realize the extent to which the line has been redrawn. there are generational and cultural shifts that i just didn't fully appreciate. >> reporter: brittany comisso, who accused the governor of groping her breast, says it's not enough >> he

thompson. suzanne craig, who was also bureau chief for the times.olitical analyst susan del percio who worked for governor cuomo. before taking the governor's oath, she announced she was naming two women to take high ringing positions in the executive branch in albany, setting a tone, giving reasons for which cuomo had to leave. what's the reaction on the ground, what's the mood entering a new administration? >> i would say if you sum it up in one phrase, chris, it would be a new day. two weeks in coming. plenty of notice. there's a palpable sense of relief that the scandals of andrew cuomo were moved aside, people can get on with the business of governing new york state. there's plenty to do, starting with covid and uncertain economy and getting kids back to school and back to school safely in the middle of what seems to be an unending pandemic. kathy hochul takes the office of governor well prepared. she has been in local politics all her life. comes from buffalo area and says she is ready to lead. this afternoon, we will hear just exactly what he

. >> nbc's anne thompson is covering this, barbara mcquade, now a law professor at the university of michigan and suzanne craig, investigative reporter for "the new york times" who spent several years covering the governor as the albany bureau chief. what happens now? he's got two weeks? what's he doing? packing up? >> well, there is a practical question the governor has to answer and that is where is he going to live once he resign. he's currently in public housing and to the best of our knowledge does not own a house anywhere else. but the big question is, why is it going to take 14 days? why does there need to be a period of two weeks? we expect to get some answers this afternoon, stephanie from kathy hochul who will succeed andrew cuomo on august 24th and become new york's first female governor. now, hochul has never been part of andrew cuomo's inner circle and we are anxious to hear exactly what she knows about that 14-day period and who decided it was going to be 14 days and what will happen. one of the big unanswered questions here in albany is will the impeachment process go forward? just because cuomo

the way that ben thompson put it is that the only thing holding apple back from scanning for anything in the future is their own policy that's why craigd, our policy is gatekeepers. in a world where managing changes, financial pressures change, pressures from governments change, that that policy could now change as well. >> i think that is the real concern here apple has tried to have a pretty pure line. as people point out, they haven't in china to do business in china is to agree to government concessions. it's not entirely new. they said to the fbi, we're not going to create special software to help you break into phones. i think there is a concern that they are creating software i do think there's nuance here that is worthy i wrote about this today i do think what haapple has done that we should take as a positive is they are not building one mass system that cracks open everything and says, from the server side, we can look at everything they created this system where they have part of the system running on the cloud, part of it running on the device so that apple doesn't gain a lot of knowledge. apple likes to not know a lot abo
