eric holder said no u.s. attorney would have charged this case given the underlying facts after a five-year investigation. discovered only made that clear. had his name been joe smith it would have been more famil -- fairly pardon warranted. barbarmcquade said the pardon of hunter biden is the bt interest of justice based on the fact most federal osecutors would have declined to charge him. a guilty plea and sentce of diversion. the former deputy chief of the crimal division sd as the deputy chief i was responsible for approving charges and nonprosecution requests. i don't believe he would have approvedf his last name was not biden. i don't believe he would have been charged. his pardon is justifd. i will pull out his statement. toour question. this plays into what i just read which i just read. there was a deal on the table. i carefully negotiated pledeal agreed to by the department of justice unraveled in the courtroom where the -- this is the president's voice -- with the numbers of political opponents in

he said, i'll say this one time. he said, i'm for hillary. he said. and he said was for you. and i was even for 2008, when you ran against then-senator obama because he said, i am the proud grandson of luther of hope, arkansas and any proceeded tell me a story about grandfather being the store one day and my grandfather looking at him long as he stared the food and he said, look, sir, you need to feed the kids and you don't have money. do. and he said, no more scarcity up. i work every week, but i don't get paid every week and keep in mind there were no food stamps and there were no none of that. and so told them that plate of food he needed for his family and signed for it and he said my grandfather said he didn't just do that for me he that for everybody and he didn't have much more money than we did. but he did have the food and he said you have to be for governor clinton because if he's just half the man, his grandfather, he be a great president. and that. it stayed with me my whole life. and so there i and hillary's getting guy's vote 66 years after. her then four year o

i said. and she said. and then i heard the teacher say to the students, take out your books and read, we're going to read with the president as the students were reaching under their desks to get their books. that's when i walked up to the president and i leaned down and ispered into his ear, a second plane hit, the second tower, america is under attack. i then stood back from him because i did not want him to talk with me. so i took two steps back. i saw his head bobbing up and down. he kind of glanced right, but never turned around. and i was very pleased with how he reacted, because he did nothing to scare those graders. he did nothing to demonstrate fear to. the media that would have translated for the terrorists to be. instead, i think the president actually focused on what real job was. i don't want to say that's when he became president. he became president when he took the oath of office and then delivered his inaugural address. on this, i think he realized what his real job as presid

here is what he said. to handling certain scandals. here is what he said.— is what he said. to put the needs of others _ is what he said. to put the needs of others first, - is what he said. to put the | needs of others first, those who are cold and hungry this christmas. those who are victims of abuse and exploitation, as well as those, who like the holy family, had to flee oppression and seek refuge in a foreign land. president zelensky has condemned russia's large—scale missile attacks across ukraine on christmas day as inhmane. he said russia had launched over 70 missiles and 100 drones at ukraine's energy system in what he called a conscious choice to launch the attacks at christmas. ukraine's air force says it downed 59 of the missiles and more than half of the drones. the mayor of kharkiv, in the northeast of the country, said at least three people were injured and that civilian infrastructure had been damaged. in recent months, russia has been intensifying its attacks on ukraine's energy system, and has accelerated its advance across the east of the country. from kyi

because this is what the president said. ben said, go in to peggy.e it to me, and i became the center of the address. it all got done. it was all under -- under pressure and pain. that address, and you could see it. you saw the pain on reagan's face. the president -- i think he was a little disappointed somehow. there were no words that were going to be equal to that moment, and there were no words that could help, period. you could only do your best. so he wasn't feeling so great about it when it was over. i could tell the way he looked on tv, and i went home that night not feeling so good, but by the next morning -- by the next morning, i didn't come into the office early. i wasn't one of those people in at 7:00 i love those people. i'm so impressed by them,but i like to breeze in about 9:15 and i breezed in, and there were messages from people like the speaker of the house, and the secretary of state, people i'd never met or talked to. i called them back and they just said, we heard you worked with him on that. good work. you did what needed to be

and i said, why? he said, i'm going to be a father and a husband, and that's not appropriate to have a truck and i'm gonna have them. keith morrison: so the pretty girl and the handsome boy got married. big wedding too, even though they were just kids. and very soon, parents also to a son, john jackson. and they fought, made up, fought again. babies having babies is no easy thing. barbara britton: we were just too young. it was difficult for him and it was difficult for me. so who was the first person to say you gotta get a divorce? my dad. how'd david take it? he was kind of like, ok, let's just find somebody, some lawyers, and, you know, see what we have to do. and that was it. keith morrison: the two divorced in 1985. david arranged weekend visits with john. how were they together? judy carlson: oh, wonderful. johnny just clung to him. they loved each other. keith morrison: they all moved on. a couple of years later, barbara married again. michael wolfe, an ex-military man like her dad. about the s

they said you're not siding those, i said i a.m.. i remember going out, larry childers was extremely helpful. he was the lead architect at a major design firm in new york and washington -- no, not washington, chicago. just a good human being and terrific architect and shortly after 9/11, i think it was april of 2002, i asked david childs to come in there to design the new world trade center. last building to go down, but the first to go up. at the base of the world trade center, they know longer had a substation to provide electricity. i got a call from the chairman of congress and he said we have a terrible problem, we are providing electricity with emergency generators and we need to get the substation back in order, we need to rebuild it quickly. got to get this done. i said ok, we might as well go over the steel and build the building, put it back. it became the first building to go up after 9/11. david childs did a superb design. what would be your reaction if i asked you to design all the buildings? he said it would be the most

said, i picture, ah, he said this. in fact, i picture sweet young amy wearing thigh high boots, leather a and a cap, and she's the and i said, that is the most thing i've heard. and then kathy wisely said well, we could always sing something sweet like bye bye. and i realized that you know this is about being really and that you'll see if you come to the show it's they're really they are really bad and need a lot of discipline then and it turns out that's become my signature song. oh that's supposed to be a surprise so you don't know that you come to the show you say singing in public is akin to public execution is what you said in this book. yes, i did. yes, you did. it's been a long time. yeah, we had we had a really good compliment. i remember bruce springsteen. do you remember that? and we were at the rock roll hall of fame and and somebody said to me to freak me, nancy sinatra is in the audience, and i really did. she wasn't. but bruce springsteen said that that later he was in the back and he said, you guys are n

bryan said. yes, the bible said so. i accept the bible. absolutely, he said. darrow. turn to the story of no the flood. when did it occur? bryan said it wasn't his concern adding i do not think about the things. i don't think about. darrow do you think about the things you do about he was sarcastic the spectators outdoor sitting on bleachers were laughing. when did the flood take place? darrow again. he then pointed out that there were civilizations whose. existence could be traced back at least 5000 years. bryan said he had no evidence of that and he would not the opinions of anyone against the inspired word of god, which was written in the bible, reading the bible, literally let make this clear, darrow said. whatever human beings, including all the tribes, inherent habitat, the world, and had to have the world, all the animals have come on to the earth since the flood. yes, bryan replied bryan cited. the computations of a bishop who said that the world was only five 6000 years old. do you know a scientific man on the of the earth that believes such a thing darrow as

aliyev said said that russia must acknowledge its guilt.esponsible must be punished, brought tojustice and compensation must be paid to the azerbaijani state. as we hearfrom president aliyev, these are azerbaijan's conditions. now we see in the news that putin initiated another phone call today and had a conversation with president aliyev again about the plane crash. this is the second call since yesterday. we don't know the details yet as they have not been made public. so what do you think all of this means in political terms for relations between the two countries and the two leaders? well, yeah, azerbaijan is one of the strongest countries in the former soviet union. some commented...commentators say, and it has never trusted russia 100%, although it always maintained good relations, which may be some with some ups and downs, and has been an ally, as the leaders would like to put this, the government always have pursued balanced foreign policy in azerbaijan. it maintains friendly ties with russia while strengthening ties with turkey, th

i said what's going on? they said, well, 12:30 is the official time. no one shows up until after 1:00. so there's senate time and real time. you've got to get adjusted to that. the pace is maybe a little different when you come from the field of being a scrappy entrepreneur. the only other senator that did the same thing was of course a guy named rick scott, you know, who ran a business, ran the state of florida. we didn't make that mistake another time. was able to host a lunch and i'm in the logistics business. and you've got to come up with something that's unique to your community. we're probably the most german catholic community in the state of indiana. we wanted to have schnitzel and brats. the plan was drive them from indiana to d.c. i actually had a volunteer do that because believe it or not, it was the only way that was practical and least expensive to host a lunch. here is one of the most unusual moments. we all get involved in media, probably far too much of it but part of this job is having the pulpit to say -- the middle of covid. can't

so, as you said. _ think will happen next? so, as you said, there _ think will happen next?l happen next? so, as you said, there is very - think will happen next? so, as you said, there is very much i you said, there is very much uncertainty at the moment and it is not only about politics but also about the economy as well. because of that reason, many people came to the straight. and today it was quite surprising that the supporters of the president mr yoon was out in the streets as well. it looks like people still have some support for the leading party. it is not only about president yoon. because of the issue and the internal political rivalry, we now have some uncertainty in the economy as well and also next month president trump will be there and that will be another factor that the korean economy will see in the future as a dangerous moment, to see trade and other tax issues. so it is not only about the politics but also about most of the issues around korea at the moment. what is the state of the korean economy at the moment? at what is the state of the korean econom

johnson: i said, i know it's complete fiction.' i said, i know it's fraud.'loan document, steven's father's signature didn't match. classic sign of a con job, said the prosecutor. morrison: even the idea that there had been any sort of relationship between morrow and steven williams' father is nonsense, right? bogus. couldn't have possibly been. mr. mckinney: couldn't have possibly been morrison: (voiceover) now he was ready for the new trial. how harvey drained steven's accounts, all 1.7 million in just three years to dress up a boat that was never going to sail anywhere. mr. mckinney: the boat was properly outfitted for a trip around the world. (voiceover) in fact, it was outfitted in such a way that suggested that it was just going to be a show piece. it was going to be part of his con, part of the image that he liked to sell to people. morrison: (voiceover) then the prosecutor took the jury through the gps and cellphone records and explained how that evidence put steven and harvey together on the far side of catalina island, after which steven vanished, a

keith morrison: just said "schreiber," that's all it said.voiceover): but where would he find this schreiber? dove went back to sandra's interview and unearthed one more clue. when asked by detective wyatt about tom's friend, sandra said the boys were once work buddies. so detective dove criss-crossed southern california, searching through the employment records of every target store for a guy named schreiber. but nobody had ever heard of him. tom dove: and we were starting to come to the end of our rope. we were getting to a dead end there. keith morrison (voiceover): that was about the time jack's daughter chere began getting strange packages in the mail, from sandra, who said they were keepsakes jack wanted his girls to have. like what? like little boxes of like ashtrays, his bowling ball bag, just a bunch of junk. and it was just weird stuff that just kept coming. keith morrison (voiceover): which seemed designed to provoke exactly the reaction the sisters felt. oh. hatred. more than i had before. keith morrison (voiceover): sandra seemed

they said one of the very big radical left members said the most consequential election in the last 129. i said couldn't they have made it longer? that is pretty good. but we won. we won the popular vote by millions and millions. i heard the first one we won and did great and they always would say well he didn't win the popular vote. he won electoral college. but we actually did very well then but we did really well the second time and this time we said the hell with it we have to blow them away and we did. so we won all seven swing states. we did well in the early voting so we didn't have to win too much. but they said he only has to win two but we won all seven. can you believe it? we carried the great state of arizona, something not easy for a republican but it was easy for us to do. and we had more than a 6-point landslides. that is a landslide here. we took back the u.s. senate and won the large he is popular vote for house republicans in a presidential year since 1928. that is a pretty good thing. i want to express my tremendous graduate to charlie kirk. he is really an amazing gu

you said no. -- pardon yourself. you said no. now that president biden has pardoned his son hunter, are you reconsidering, might you pardon yourself? >> i didn't do anything wrong. i was given the option, and the lawyers told me specifically, i don't have to go into who, but high up in the administration said, sir, if you pardon yourself you're going to look guilty, and you did nothing wrong. oh, i had that option. i could have saved myself a lot of legal fees. but it turned out that i was right. look at what's gone on. everything's being dropped. i still have a fani willis, fani. a total hoax, that's a total hoax. all being dropped. >> i also asked the president-elect about nbc news' reporting that president biden is considering preemptive pardons for some of the people who have clasheded with mr. trump, including senator-elect adam schiff, dr. anthony fauci, and former congresswoman liz cheney. as part of his response, mr. trump lashed out at the january 6th committee, accusing of it unfairly targeting him and even of destroyin

so i said, yes, ok. be one of my biggest regrets because that's not where the money was going to come from. at the time you were cashing the checks, did you have any clue that it was coming from a place where it wasn't supposed to come, that it was stolen money? not at first. at first, it was just she-- you know, she would say, how much do you need this month? and i'd say, you know, oh, we need this and this. and she'd be like, ok, i'll put it in your account next week. and she would just make a deposit. and then after a month or two, she said, you know, it's-- it's kind of a pain to have to, like, run to the bank and, you know, make the deposit. so it'd be really easier for me if i could just set you up on, like, an automated system. how much was she paying you this way? i think the set amount was like $800 a month. and then one day she sent me a text message. and it said, they want me to hire an assistant for work that doesn't need to be done. they-- they think that i work too much. so i want to hire y

they said, how to take the pressure of the smoke i said, i never felt a bit of pressure. i didn't change who i was. i have been voting the way i have been voting for 42 years. if it made sense and i could go home and explain it, i voted. i didn't worry about these people supported you, they want you to vote this way -- it didn't make any sense. somebody had a fundraiser, they want you to do this -- i thought you were investing in government. i didn't know you invest in your own personal senator or congressperson. if you got the wrong congressperson. it never bothered me. i never cared about getting any feedback. host: perhaps the most impactful or publicized of your votes, that swing vote, the 20 today to the inflation reduction act. sen. manchin: ira. it was not my vote. i was the author. host: but it was very close. sen. manchin: now, the bad thing about this the worst thing about the ira, my republican friends couldn't vote for it. that was the worst thing. because of how they did it. it was done with reconciliation. that means one side only. to be used for financial c

syria's president al-assad said the u.s.nd an offensive that reignited the country's civil war. he claims washington and its allies want to redraw the map of the middle east. syria and russia are bombarding positions, this was the aftermath of a russian strike on a hospital. the syrian army says it's killed hundreds of rebels while rebel groups and independent observers say many of the dead are civilians. rebel groups seized alepp poe, syria's -- aleppo, syria's second city, in a surprise attack last week. kurdish troops are reportedly moving out of aleppo along with kurdish civilians. here's our international editor, jeremy bowen. disblat the weekend only a couple of days after starting their offensive, rebel fighters were posing and celebrating at aleppo's ancient citadel. during years war the sit del was an impression national regime fortress. these men took it almost without a fight. back in january, 2017, i was in aleppo in the days after the assad regime recaptured the east of the city from rebels who had held it since

but i said it. -- lightheartedly but i said it. he is going to be indicted and a few months later he got indicted. i would certainly look at it. >> can i ask you a question about the drones? >> [indiscernible] we had 5000 troops along the border and i asked a couple of generals so we have an army of 250,000 in syria and you have an army of 400,000, turkey is a major force by the way and erdogan is someone i got along with great. he has a major military force. his has not been worn out with war. he has built a very strong , powerful army. and so we have 5000 soldiers in between 5 million person army and a 250,000 person army and i asked the general, what do you think of that situation? he said they will be wiped out immediately. and i move them out because and i took a lot of heat and you know what happened, nothing. nothing. i saved a lot of lives. now we have 900. they put some back. 900 if you're talking about one of the sides has been essentially wiped out. nobody knows who the other side is, but i do. you know who it is, turkey

he said, yeah, that's it. but i think i think we kind of accomplish it with max einstein because max is pretty entertaining and kids do get some feeling for einstein's theories. i wanted to write about mohammed ali's youth in a car and in because i knew it was kind of misunderstood and i but i was approached by muhammad ali's estate and in particular his widow, who, like myself, went to vanderbilt and once again we kind of hit it off and then i reached out to bombay. alexie and her, who i'd done a couple of speaking agents with, and we wrote, i think, a pretty amazing book because it's half. i wrote the prose and he wrote the poetry and we tell the story going back and forth and the poetry is particularly relevant when you talk about muhammad ali, because poetry, rhyme, etc. was so important in terms of his rise as a personality. you know, mr. patterson, how did you meet your coauthor on american heroes? matt eversmann. i had done nonfiction with a friend of matt tim malloy. i done, as i mentioned, the book ab

and i said, i'm doing this weird thing. he said, okay. and he allowed me to do it. and so it was really freeing. and i that i could not. i had to allow them to have own voices too, because i could have written about them from a distance. but what better way to give a woman who was enslaved than allow her to stand up and tell her own story. which extra important? i think the key to the context of the land, the actual place appalachia feels extra important for that, especially so much erasure of black people in. the area i get really inspired by your ability to claim the land claim is the wrong word but to really acknowledge your deep relationship with the land and how it has gone back to the 19th century further back even and i know that that's not we tend to talk about black people being in appalachia how important was that re narration in your writing this well, we know that appalachia is in the news lately, right? where we have her right in the news. but so but even before this, like i've always like there are some people who who question whether or not black shou

and he's said that recently. you have got someone who has some serious allegations, and yet you have in joni ernst, who i respect, you have someone who's been a leader on the issue of sexual assault. so my guess is here that she and many of my other colleagues are going to be at the hearings, they're going to ask question, and certainly democrats have every right to ask question, and we're going to try to get out the truth and elaborate on some of these statements like you just saw from kash patel. and hearings can make a difference. you yourself know democrat, republican nominees, they have made a difference to people, because it's our job to listen and make a decision as an independent senator for the state that we represent. >> you know what, i feel in the age of trump we have to remind people about how this once was. i mean, there have been so many nominees that presidents have advanced for their cabinet who instantaneously had public unanimous support. 100 votes in the senate, unanimously right away. very co

now — direct contact, he said.ng because the us, as do several other countries, still designates it as a terrorist organisation, and it was in specifically to do with the fate of a missing american journalist, austin tice, who i think has been missing since 2012. and there's been hope that with the removal of president assad, there might be a possibility, if he's still alive, of finding him. and so the us has contacted — it's made it a priority of what it wants to do in syria and has contacted hts to discuss that. but he also said that the us had set out its principles, the ones we're talking about, the ones they talked about again today injordan, to hts to say, you know, this is what we believe is the way forward. sebastian usher there. let's go to the _ sebastian usher there. let's go to the caucasus now. a former professional football player has been elected in president of georgia in a vote in the country's parliament, despite condemnation from the incumbent president and the pro—eu opposition. they say the ele

you just said it? >> i said the attorney general of louisiana and texas. i believe this referred to specifically lawsuits brought and arguments made in court at the arrival of haitians. senator kennedy: i am out of time >> thank you very much, senator. i appreciate your questions. senator kennedy: the attorney general of louisiana had his eyes not knives out. >> senator hirono senator heronna: thank you, mr. chairman. we have a broken immigration system. this was acknowledged over a decade ago when first arrived in the united states senate. we actually in 2013, we had a bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform bill that addressed the issues of all of the immigrants who are working in various large sectors of our economy, i.e., in the ag sector, where the chamber of commerce are concerned about what we are doing with immigration policy where we dealt with the undocumented immigrants who are working and paying taxes for which they get absolutely -- they are paying the social security, medicare, they don't get those benefits at all. we have a broken immigr

i said, ben on two phones. and i said, ben, you're going to have to change the state of the union tonight, whatever happens. but i'm going write either a speech or an insert because something's going to have to be done with this cannot not be talked about. and i just settled myself down, started to do my work. president reagan, when the shuttle blew up, had been meeting with network anchors to give them a preview of the state of the union. so i was having lunch with a bunch of network anchors. he was called away from the lunch and told mr. president he then went to the tv and watched it. there's a wonderful picture of him just with his face wash with concern as he looks down at the tv set. that is clearly showing you the explosion. reagan then went back so courteous he never had to go back to the lunch with the anchors down, the hall, but he would never anybody just leave in a crisis, he would say goodbye to them. so he met with them and he said, we've just had a terrible moment. we're not sure of everything th

he said you talking about? i said that time you met the kennedys and i never did. he said, we did not meet the kennedys. dad told us to say we met the kennedys. so i've been telling a lie on top of a lie for 18 years or so. >> i still carry on about the kennedys. >> when it comes to family secrets and thinking about the secrets that we keep from ourselves and the way, i was very struck in your book about the way that lie, they're all the same really, the same version of, when we live we are not really being ourselves, there's something in there that has to do with changing the narrative or shifting it. you grew up in a house that was pulsing with secrets, different kinds of secrets. that could not have been something you are conscious of. what did that feel like in those years? before you go to new york, there are so many layers of it that came over time. back then, what did it feel like? our childhoods, for all of us, wherever you are no matter how outsized or what's going on, that's all we know. >> you are right, you are not conscious of it. as we were growing up

and i said what he said, yes is really important in good good about three or four minutes later i said, do you know about china and yes i will try to good. and then about ten minutes later i said, is everything going to china. so that was my answer okay and know what is happening now. still china and is very important. there's a war the middle east and there is a war in europe as well. now, i was really interested to talk about this episode. but i want to say is now we want to talk about this again. there is a lot going on forhe iy worried about it because i still think that china is the most important thing that we have. there is a lot going on in the rest of the world. so i am really worried about that. and i thought that it was done i thought that it was done. it was not done it all. >> let me ask you a bit on that actually it was a planning on it but you say that the most important thing in the moment in times of the news coverage in the headlines that everybody is seeing as certainly try as there is certainly all understand the long-term strategic applications. >> everybody knows

he said that: "from the day i took office, "i said i would not interfere "with thejustice department's decision—making and i kept my "word, even as i have watched my son being selectively, "and unfairly, prosecuted." he went on to say that, "no reasonable person who looks at the facts of hunter's case can reach any other conclusion "than hunter was singled out only because he is my son — "and that is wrong." he also said "i hope americans will understand why "a father and a president would come to this decision." the president described the prosecution of his son as unfair, and a result of pressure from his political opponents. hunter biden said mistakes he made in his darkest days of addiction had been exploited to humiliate his family. donald trump has called the pardon an abuse and a miscarriage ofjustice. daniel lippman is politico's white house reporter — he explained why president biden took this decision the white house and biden himself had been insistent for years that he would never intervene. but his kind of duties as a father has out—ridden that and he did not want his son

as a caller said. what the caller said is exactly one of the problems. donald trump can now do whatever he wants. host: dallas, let me give you johnny on the democratic line from cincinnati. johnny, go ahead. caller: yes. this is john. i'm just trying to understand why, you know, at these dinner tables, people, these smart people you got, you got to smart guys up there now, throughout the campaign, you all have never really looked or tried to connect the dots. the republican party came on the scene and said it's wide open. every republican always said the border was wide open. because joe biden was there. and then once they got here, they said joe biden won't let them in here. that's crazy. host: dallas? guest: a couple of things i want to say about the biden administration, the entire reason for the biden candidacy was to put an end to trump and trumpism. he ran the office in this clandestine way. trump is stronger than he's ever been. the biggest force in american politics by far, the biggest force in politics in the world. i agree with my brother that

he said he's going to. and i wouldn't be surprised if he did. >> and thomas jefferson, was he the first president? the third president. but the first to pardon? >> no. george washington pardoned the participants in the end of the whiskey rebellion. and john adams granted a few pardons. i can't tell you off the top of my head how many. there weren't that many because there weren't that many prosecutions. >> sam in baltimore, a democrat. good morning. >> good morning. here's my point. i think that president biden changed his idea because he has seen what trump is talking about with his vengeful attacks. he's going to use the department of justice to go after people repeatedly. so i think, didn't biden have a plea deal? but they don't care about that. they want to keep him in the parents, they want to keep him in the press. they want to keep continually attacking him. so i understand why they deal abroad. because trump is vindictive and vengeful and wants to hurt people that have wronged him. could you please

the i've said in a book, you know, they have said in these yet they have said in mind that they have said in a give me a call. not really we, i'm me do i, we have come here for a short time to clean up the mess that has been with us. we have come here to clean up the mess that the friend shop board with create that we have come here to ensure that being said, don't see, which is on the side by the french in the book enough for us. so which is sponsored by them in molly, which is phone set by them in asia, which is phone set by them in the net cannot create that this inside just states will eliminate the and really introduce a new a system of governors which will not allow the people of the country to participate in the governors without being controlled from factory. yeah. say that we have been published for too long. we on now the gaining uh why independence and this revolution is revolution, which is unique, is that evolution which is being defined on refined by on last within who's agenda is the spirit of pa northbrook. and is this the aly under pollution? is that evolution? which

and he said, by email. and i said, well, do you know it's him?here's just things in the email that would-- that would-- no one else would know. so i asked him if i could take a look at those emails. keith morrison (voiceover): he started poring over all of chris's communications from his globe-trotting voyage. it's kind of like a travelogue, right? islands we've sailed around are amazing. yes. just docked in port of argentina. keith morrison (voiceover): the emails were like picture postcards in prose, from all around the world. but dalu thought something didn't smell right. what intrigued you about them? i remember one of the things that struck me odd was that the writer was trying too hard to make the receiver believe that this is me, this is chris. keith morrison (voiceover): take this email from october 2010. chris wrote to his dad, it was almost like, well, his dad knows where he grew up. his dad knows where this is. you wouldn't say "to your hometown." yeah, i think the normal thing that somebody would say would be, hey, let's-- i want to g
