Nbc senior Legal Correspondent Laura Jarrett is here. Laura, good morning. This is the first part of the case. We didnt have court friday, we didnt have it yesterday. Where are we . Where do things stand. There are some witnesses that are here to tell a story for the prosecution and some witnesses that are just there because you have to get the documents in. Theres no other way to get the in evidence. Well hear from gary farrow at the bank that Michael Cohen used when we talk about the hush money payment that gets made. Its a payment that Michael Cohen makes to Stormy Daniels prosecutors say to try to keep her quiet. We have to hear from the banker who processed that payment. Youll sort of see this happen throughout the trial where it seems like why do they have to bring this guy in. They dont get the evidence in any other way. Prosecutors want to start and end strong. Theres a lot of these people the middle. Building blocks they hope to wrap together by the end. The gag order, the judge held a hearing on it for violations of the gag order by the former president. But has yet to issue a ruling. Yeah. Its really curious. I think its safe to at least see it in the context of that he understands this is somebody who is running for president. This has never happened before. I think hes trying to be careful. He doesnt want to do anything to go too far, get overruled on appeal. He also sees that the former president is using all of this, right . Hes fundraising off of it. Hes attacking the judge left and right. The judge is trying to be careful but also comes to a certain point if hes not going to enforce the rules, why does he have these orders . The prosecution said in Court Last Week they the former president is angling to be incarcerated, try to goat the judge to put him in jail. The judge doesnt want to take the bait. If he doesnt enforce the rules, then it looks like hes powerless and will hold another hearing on it. And guys, this is why this case is also taking so long. Right . He has to take time out of what would be a witness day to hold a twohour hearing on a gag order. All right, laura, youre going to court today. Well talk to you tomorrow. Yep. Thank you. 7 14.

It is a term used to broadly address changes in mood and attitude that some people say they feel after being on those medications. Nbcs correspondent vicky nguyen is here with a look. Good morning. Good morning. As with any medication, people can expect some side effects. But when youre talking about drugs that can lead to drastic weight loss through appetite suppression, users are also dealing with changes in their habits, how they socialize and their appearance. Its all leading some to worry that the medicines are changing who they are. My anxiety is through the freakin roof. Reporter its the latest side effect thats giving some patients pause. I absolutely for months now have been feeling depressed. Reporter they say popular diabetes drugs also used for weight loss such as ozempic and mounjaro are leading to mood changes and depression in whats been dubbed ozempic personality. Some users say they dont feel like themselves. Their joy dulled. I used to be positive, bubbly, sunshine person. And over the last year and a half ive kind of lost that. Reporter since being prescribed ozempic, Sidney Foster lost 90 pounds. She says its her Mental Health thats now weighing her down. Is this making you rethink your relationship with the drugs for weight loss . It has been. I know i dont want to have the same mindset forever. If it means staying skinny, thats not what i want. Reporter they use semaglutide. Its effect on mood needs more research. There has not been any link directly with the drug to any known personality disorder or any known psychiatric condition, but it would not be impossible to see a range of responses, including a change in personality. Reporter after receiving 175 reports from ozempic and wegovy patients experiencing suicidal thoughts, an fda study found no link between the drugs and suicide. Though the administration added, it could not rule out that a small risk may exist and its continuing to study the issue. Whats more, while wegovy lists depression as a possible side effect. Used for weight loss. Ozempic used to treat type two diabetes does not. Novo nordisk says it collaborates closely with the fda to monitor the safety of all its medicine. The maker of both medicines. This latest complaint adding to a growing list of some patients. My biggest side effect was nausea. Reporter they will have a dedicated section of items that may help address more common side effects like products that help gi health, muscle mass and bone density and nutrition. While doctors say the relationship between mood changes and the drugs needs to be studied, theyre hopeful their benefits out weigh potential hazards. I am not worried about it when i weigh the risks against obesity, diabetes and all the other Health Conditions against the use of this drug. So many people are on these drugs now. If you are feeling some of these feelings, what do doctors suggest you do . Yeah. Millions of people are on these drugs, craig. Dr. Patel says it makes sense they would have a wide range of responses. If you feel any changes in your mood, you are not feeling yourself, go talk to a therapist, go talk to a counselor right away and see a doctor about potentially changing the medication that you are on. That could help you as well. She says dont hesitate to seek help. We should mention we did reach out to eli lilly, the maker of mounjaro. They did not respond to our request. Its interesting because even if its not the medication thats causing these feelings, a huge life change like that, losing a bunch of weight, its an emotional change, its not just a physical change. And how people treat you and respond to you in your social circles can be another factor that can be isolating. If you are the only one making these Lifestyle Changes and the friends you go out with arent respectful or not into it, that can also make you feel lonely. Yeah. Reach out. Absolutely. Youre not alone. Thank you. Thank you. Mr. Roker . We have temperature changes coming. For example, weve got this beautiful warm weather through the southeast.

We talked about it since the opening pitch of spring training, the controversy surrounding the brand new uniforms in Major League Baseball. After months of pushback from fans and players, it finally looks like changes are on the way. Kaylee hartung has the details on that. Good morning. Good morning. So the boys of summer are throwing serious heat at nike after changes to the uniforms left them sweat stained and ripped down the seams at times. The Players Association is now saying that the sports giant was innovating something that didnt need to be innovated and laying out plans to fix the flaws. Reporter after months of backlash, changes may be on deck for uniforms that have been anything but a home run. He rips his pants. The Major League Baseball Players Association telling the leagues players in a memo obtained by nbc news that nike is expected to address frustrations with its new mlbunis no later than the start of next season. The association writes nike was innovating something that doesnt need to be innovated. Nike has not responded to nbc news request for comment but said in the past they will continue to work to address player uniforms. Among the apparent solutions outlined, addressing the on going sweat stain issues sweeping through the premier jersey, returning to larger lettering on the backs of jerseys and bringing back tailering options for pants and pass stitching standards to prevent blowouts. I think were seeing here that enough outrage can make a company like nike say, okay, were getting blasted for this. Reporter while the initial reaction to the new uniform wasnt all negative somehow this feels more authentic than the ones we were wearing. There were plenty of critics. Phillies star trea turner telling the associated press, i know everyone hates them. We all liked what we had. The jerseys are different. Theyre designed to be performance wear as opposed to what has traditionally been worn. Reporter as the Players Association now writes this has been entirely a nike issue. Theyre standing by the fanatics, manufacturer, the sports ware giant has been making the uniforms for the last eight years without issue. Theyre messing with something that probably didnt need to be changed. If the players like them, cool. If they dont like them, then change them. Reporter fans of americas favorite past time and what a catch reporter hoping any tweaks wind up being a huge hit. Its a drive into deep right field we reached out to fanatics and the Players Association. No one is offering comments on the memo. Keep in mind, guys, nike is four years into a tenyear 1 billion deal to be the leagues official uniform supplier. It is clear these frustrations have been heard. Now it is up to nike to address them.

A new Study Suggests that in all 50 of the largest metro areas in this country, its more affordable to rent a home than to buy one you can get. With housing prices at record highs now, a new Study Suggests that in all 50 of the largest metro areas in this country, its more affordable to rent a home than to buy one. According to the analysis from bankrate, nationwide, the typical home costs nearly 37 more to buy than to rent on a monthly basis. Nbcs Senior Business correspondent Christine Romans is here with more. So, christine, we know a lot depends on sort of where you live in america. But 37 , thats pretty substantial. Are there parts of the country where it is more pronounced than others . Yeah, absolutely. The typical rent is 1,900. Almost 1979. The typical mortgage is 2,700. Thats that 37 gap. That is meaningful. Rent there about 3,000. Ding a lot of people back from being able to afford a home. You go out west, San Francisco rent there about 3,000. Mortgage payment 8,500. Salt lake city, seattle, austin, san jose, a real doozy in texas there as well. These are the places where it is a big difference in cost between what you are paying for rent and a mortgage. We all know why. Mortgage rates are up. Home prices are up. People are locked into their low Mortgage Rates and they arent moving. So there is not a lot of inventory. It is crazy because there is not, as i understand it, any city where it is more affordable to buy than rent. Do you have examples of where it is closer, at least . I do. I think its really important to remember that the American Dream for 4 out of 5 americans is still owning a home. If you are in detroit or buffalo or cleveland, some of these places, philadelphia, pittsburgh, those are places where the difference between renting and buying is a little narrower. Save your money. Pay for you know, get a 20 down payment if you can. You can also shop around for va, usda, fha loans that have a very small, small Mortgage Rate if you qualify. So those are some places where i think you should start to think about building that equity, building that wealth if it makes sense for your family. There is also an Affordable Housing crisis in this country. Yes. A lot going on there. Thank you, christine. All right. The winners of the 1. 3 billion Powerball Jackpot earlier this month have been revealed. Charlie safeon of portland is an immigrant from laos. He has been fighting cancer for years.

Just ahead here, shes done it again on popstart carson will take us inside the new Music History that taylor swift just made thanks to that new album. But first, a today exclusive tied to an issue thats top of miebd for so many parents, care givers, kids and screen time. A first look at new guidance out this morning from pediatricians and what all parents should ask themselves before handing over that tablet or smartphone right after this. And allergists, that helps heal your childs skin from within. Serious allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. Tell your doctor about new or worsening eye problems such as eye pain or vision changes, including blurred vision, joint aches and pain, or a parasitic infection. Dont change or stop asthma medicines without talking to your doctor. Ask your childs eczema specialist about dupixent. woman purina one true instinct unlocked her true instincts.

If you have Chronic Kidney Disease you can reduce the risk of kidney failure with farxiga. Because there are places youd like to be. Farxiga can cause serious side effects, including ketoacidosis that may be fatal, dehydration, urinary tract, or genital yeast infections, and low blood sugar. A rare, lifethreatening bacterial infection in the skin of the perineum could occur. We are back. Our special series on screen time, a topic we are very passionate about around here. We were raging during the commercial. All right. It is an ongoing issue going on in so many households. Here is the thing, about half of all children in the u. S. Now get their first smartphone by the age of 11. Kids and teens receive an average of, get this, 237 notifications every single day. And nearly 70 of parents now say that screens and tech are, of course, distracting from family time. So what can parents do about it . A lot of us are really beleaguered. The American Academy of pediatrics has new guidance. Its offering ways to manage screen times for kids. It poses five essential questions and calls them the five cs. The first c is for child. Who is your child . How do they react to digital media. Then content, what is worth the attention of your child. Heres another big one. Calm. How do kids manage their emotions, especially around bedtime. Next up, crowding out. What does social media get in the way of. And the final c, communication. How can you talk to your kids and build healthier relationships with their devices. A pediatrician for the center of excellent in social media and youth Mental Health here to explain the guidance. Doctor, good morning. Hi. So this is not hard and fast rules. These are subjects of discussion, i guess, that pediatricians should have with their parents and with their patients. Yeah. This is a frame work. We were asked by pediatricians and families to come up with easy to remember guidance thats informed by the research evidence, but is more nuanced than the old twohour rule, which is our old way of thinking about screen time. So we distilled this guidance. Were funded by samsa. They wanted us to create resources that families can use. They wanted to read this and say, oh, i know how to implement that in my day. How does it work . I got to tell you, when i looked at those five i understand those are all five issues. I dont understand how that translates to my kid who is you know, i only let screen time on the weekends, but theyre begging me for it all the time. Which is most kids, right. Lets talk about that begging or negotiations were all experiencing with our kids. So if we think about the first c, child. Some kids are pretty chill about their media use. Others have that drive. Like they just want it. Its so hard for them to shift away from it. It is hard for them to put it down. If you have a kid like that or who might be anxious, might have adhd, you want to be more intentional about your guidance and boundaries around media use or just use media that doesnt have all that sticky properties that want them to keep going and going and going. Thats where content comes in. If you find you are battling more over kids watching youtube or video games that are just filled with rewards or a social media feed making them feel bad about themselves. Then switch the content to something more positive where maybe you watch together and learn more from that. I feel like most of it is not good. Cigarettes. Like you can only half a puff i feel like sometimes we liken it to we talked about it being like cigarettes. Like you can only half a puff and thats not going to hurt you, so i will give you a little bit here and there. When you hear kids are getting phones by 11 and you see whats happening to kids, its out there. You see whats happening to their brains, their confidence, their anxiety levels, all of these things seem to be ratcheting up. If you could waive a magic wand and say, this is what i would do with social media, what would you do . I would make it designed around the way kids live and think, right . What does that mean . Right now, it is designed to increase profits and ad views. Right . So that means to be clear, it is designed to addict. It is designed to keep you on longer and have you coming back again and again. So thats what parents are really up against right now. If i could waive that magic wand, i know there is parents out there that say i need a phone to communicate with my kids or pickups or when they are at their other parents house. We need more starter phones that just have texting, talking, maybe gps and maps. There are some of those out there now, yeah. So thats what we should go to. We need those to be affordable, so that families arent just handing down a smartphone and everything it contains. They have to be more affordable than a 1,500 smartphone. Right . And teens tell us that smart phone, that first smart phone they get is like a pandoras box. They didnt realize all that was in there if it doesnt have some restrictions on it. If you do have a smartphone your kid is using, look at the apple or Android Settings and find ways to really kind of filter out who they can contact, what times of day. What advice would you give . Certainly during the pandemic, i hear this from mom friends that have kids that are older, said, look, during the pandemic, we had no choice. School was online. We gave in. We caved. Now the younger kid is like, this one got it at 11, so i do too. Right. How do you message to your kid, i know its not fair, but we know more now. Right. One thing is that during pandemic times, we were all super, super stressed. We didnt have a lot of options. Now if you are a parent with more options and you have a community you can talk to and say, hey, can we put the brakes on this a bit and talk about when we want that smartphone to be introduced and what our boundaries will be around it, thats one thing because the peer pressure that kids feel is really, really hard. The second thing, if you are a family that feels like, i let loose during the pandemic, and i cannot reel it back in, thats where crowding out really matters. Because this is a strengths base approach. If we just say, put your phones down, what are you going to fill that time with . You need to have things your family loves to do that you want to crowd back in. A lot of families say, oh, its sleep. A parent up on tiktok, they need that sleep back. Thats what you want to crowd back in. You may love cooking together, walking your dog or other silly games you love to play. But as a family, you need to think about what those things are and say im making time for that. This is me taking control, rather than feeling like that device is just taking up every minute of down time. Its a huge challenge, too. Lets be honest, its harder to do that. Its so much harder. It is a lot of work. Thats what i want parents to hear. This is really hard right now. We need regulations and better childcentered design so this isnt like pushing a boulder up a hill. We need the schools to help us. Get some backbone. Schools, government, tech industry. As the Surgeon General said, this is a multistake holder thing. This isnt just parents. Who have this on their shoulders. I want parents to see these new guidelines as not a new checklist they need to do. Raising kids isnt like working in a factory, right . It is more about riding the waves with kids and teaching them how to deal with ups and downs. If you have a framework that helps you make those decisions, what does my kid need right now . Who are they . How do i help them become the best person they are. Take it away. Yeah. Or just say no mas. We get it. Its true. To say no to your kid is so much harder than just saying yes. I know. Yes goes fast, and no takes 30 minutes as they fight. But no is an investment. In the longer term wellbeing. Yes. Al is like, i had a weather forecast. Is there any time left for you . No, no, no. Are you into it . With my kids, i always started with no. You can always work to yes. But if you start with yes, you got nowhere to go. Start with no. No the power of no, thats right. All right. Were looking at heavy rain up into parts of northern new england. Wet weather along the eastern sea board later today. Severe storms midplains. The best west the best. Plenty of sunshine. Mountain snows in the Pacific Northwest and the western plains. Thats whats going on around the country. Heres whats ha thats your latest weather. Best time of the morning, popstart.

Website Talker Research recently polled 2,000 movie goers and found the best average run time, 92 minutes. A tight 92. That was the winner. So can you think of some cinematic greats crushing those numbers. Lord of the rings was long, cleopatra, gone with the wind, killers of the flower moon all surpassing three hours. Geez. Which movies come in at the sweet spot, 92 minutes . How about this one youve got to learn the five ds of dodge ball. Dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge. If you master the five ds, no amount of balls on earth can hit you. Shouldnt we learn by dodging balls that are thrown at us. Thats what this sack of wrenches is for. If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball. What . Oh we just watched half the movie. In addition to dodge ball kung fu panda, beetlejuice, toy story 2, all at 92 minutes. Whats the perfect number . Three hours is getting ridiculous. I agree with 92. 92. 1 45 the most. The fugitive to me is the perfect movie. I dont know how long that was.

So this will be a spot where people and friends come to hang out, have a taco and just relax. Good. Lets get started, chef. What are we going to make today . Simple taco. We have the tasting crew over there devouring the guacamole and margaritas. What do you do with the chilis first . So were using here pacilla and guallio. Its a quintessential mexico city taco. The original recipe is some garlic. They put some orange juice normally or even orange soda in it. We decided not to because were using pork loin. Got it. If you are using the leg, you need the acid to break up a little bit. But not the loin. You dont need the orange. Also, if you are using the leg, you have to chop up. What do you do with the onions and the garlic . How do we do this . Just throw them in. You have to rehydrate the chilis in warm water, so do that for an hour. Once theyre soft, what you do is you put them here in the yeah, drop them in. Saute them. Okay. You have a little bit of chipotle. You have some water. Yeah. So you add the water. How are the tacos, guys . Beyond. Its so good. Lets go. And then put the chipotle inside. Let that simmer, cook for an hour, and then you make it into the paste. All right. You got the pork loin down. It will marinate in that. Yeah. It will marenate in that. Craig wants to know if he can use chicken thighs. Of course. What kind of dumb question is that, craig . I didnt ask it. You know that came from al. Does this need to marinate, chef, or you can pour it and go . It needs to stay for at least a couple hours. Since it doesnt have acid, you can leave it overnight. If it had the orange juice, dont do more than two to three hours. Perfect. Then you basically dry it out. You dont want to leave a lot of marinade to put it on the pan. In mexico, what you do is put the we call it trampo, which is layered or stacked and put it into the kabob and then slice it. Your spot opens this weekend in brooklyn, cinco de mayo, what are you expecting a mob scene. The weather is now perfect. The weather is great. Youll be packed. These pork loins are thin.
