Lets start with our top story. A lot of developments on the russian subway bombing. A suspect has been identified. And the white house says President Trump has reached out to russian president Vladimir Putin. Nbc chief correspondent bill neely is in st. Petersburg for us this morning. Bill, good morning. What can you tell us . Reporter good morning, savannah. A rising death toll from a an attack that has been confirmed as a suicide bombing. An attack thats led to a conversation about terrorism between President Trump and russias president putin. But the carnage here could have been so much worse because what was planned was a doublebombing. Investigators say the bomb on the metro carriage was packed with nails and ball bearings. It tore through metal and people. The injured treated on a station platform. Authorities in neighboring kyrgystan named the suspect as a 22yearold russian citizen with links to islamist militants. Amid the smoke, clues. Investigators are examining debris and residue, Security Camera footage and a second bomb. The bomb at this metro station was meant to be even more powerful. Disguised as a fire extinguisher, it was found and disarmed. It will be a gold mine of forensic information. Its still not clear if one man was behind both bombs. No group has claimed the attack. It came midafternoon. The timing significant because russias president Vladimir Putin was in st. Petersburg, his home city. After the attack, he laid flowers at the station and later talked by phone to President Trump, who offered condolences and condemnation. Terrible thing happening all over the world. Absolutely terrible thing. Reporter the attack comes amid russias ongoing bombing of syria thats brought threats of revenge from isis. The Terror Group Supporters posting this just days ago. Promising we will burn russia. Putin said bombing syria would stop terrorism reaching russia. It hasnt. This morning, more flowers for the victims. More prayers, after this citys fist underground terror attack. And the flowers are still being laid at this metro station. The white house says president s trump and putin agree that terrorism must be defeated decisively and quickly. Not so simple here. 7,000 russians went to syria to fight for isis. Many are back. Russia, now, is on high alert. Matt, savannah . Bill neely in st. Petersburg, thank you. Speaking of russia, were learning more about russian interference in the president ial election. It includes the targeting of a trump associate by russian spies. It comes during a fight for Supreme Court nominee neil gorsuch. We have two reports this morning. Beginning with chief Foreign Affairs correspondent andrea mitchell. Good morning to you. Reporter the reports by target of russian intelligence intelligence of russell page, later aide to donald trump, adding fuel to the controversy of possible connections to trump associates. Page is not aware at the time that the man was a russian spy. This morning, a new hi released payment, carter page, met with and gave documents to a russian spy in new york city in 2013. An Energy Industry consultant, he is the unnamed man identified in the federal complaint, who met with a russian agent, posing as a Bank Executive four years ago. Page is not a defendant in the complaint, and was unaware the man was a spy, was identified by buzzfeed. And said he gave only basic, immaterial information and publicly available documents. The revelation of pages connection to russian intelligence three years before trump, is the most clearly documented contact to date, between russian spies and someone in trumps circle. In an interview with abc news, page called allegations he had secret talks with russian officials on trumps behalf nonsense. I think its a political stunt from the getgo. Reporter all this comes amid a new report that top Trump Campaign contributor erik prince, giant of the defense contractor formerly called blackwater, a meeting with an associate of Vladimir Putins. The meeting was held in the luxurious estate owned by united erats royalty in the Seychelles Islands and was designed to set up a back channel between putin and trump. It was reportedly created in december, during an unannounced trip to new york. He met with mike flynn and jared kushner. Erik princes ties to donald trump are impeccable. A Major Political donor, he visited trump tower during the transition, and his sister is betsy devos, the major donor and now in the trump cabinet, the secretary of education. And prince is close to steve bannon, now the chief strategist, a frequent guest on breitbart radio show. Erik prince, the founder of blackwater. Thank you for taking time away today. I know you are busy, to join us here on breitbart news. Reporter prince is also controversial. Four guards from his former company were convicted in the 2007 death of iraqi civilians during the iraq war. Overnight, the white house said, were not aware of any meetings and erik prince had no role in the transition. U. S. Officials told the Washington Post, the fbi has been looking at this latest meeting as part of its brooder investigation into trump contacts with russia and moscows attempts to influence the u. S. Election. A spokesperson for prince said the meeting was not about trump. Secretly, former National Security Officials Say there was nothing about susan rice requesting the identity of people picked up in surveillance of foreign officials despite the white house saying it was political spying. Matt and savannah . Andrea mitchell, thank you. Trump is expressing a new willingness to compromise to reach a deal on health care. Thats one of the topics discussed oneonone with Kristen Welker. Reporter good morning to you. This was an impromptu meeting in the oval office that lasted a few minutes. But during the conversation, President Trump told me hes serious about reviving Health Care Reform. Hes also disputed reports hes not engaged in the details. When i asked if he can work with democrats, mr. Trump says he thinks his republican colleague holds the best chance for compromise, citing the raw relations over his Supreme Court nominee, judge neil gorsuch. About an hour after our conversation, the Vice President and chief of staff all met with members of the Freedom Caucus, the same group that rejected the offer for repeal and replace obamacare. Mark meadows, liam leader of the Freedom Caucus spoke to reporters. We remain openminded and willing to look in detail at the details of the plan. And so, were hopeful that well get the legislative text within the next 24 hours. Reporter meanwhile, there are mounting tensions over neil gorsuch. On monday the Senate Judiciary Committee Approved him, sending his confirmation to the full senate for a vote. Democrats are vowing to block gorsuch with a filibuster. Republicans have the majority and say theyre prepared to go nuclear. That would mean theyll change the senate rules and push gorsuch through without democrats. It would be the first partisan filibuster of a Supreme Court judge in history. This white house wants a win, though, after a rocky few weeks, and the president has indicated he fully supports the effort to go nuclear. Savannah .

They called the allegations disturbing and added in a statement, we dont feel this is a Good Environment in which to advertise our products right now. Responding online to the New York Times report, oreilly said in part, just like other prominent and controversial people, im vulnerable to lawsuits from individuals who want me to pay them to avoid negative publicity. As a father, he says he acted quickly when accused, quote, to put to rest any controversies to spare my children. On monday, another oreilly accuser went in front of the cameras. Dr. Wendy walsh, a former guest who made frequent appearances on his show. From los angeles, psychologist dr. Weekendy walsh.

The complaint says ailes insisted on a kiss hello and frequently asked her why she was not married and what she was looking for in a man. Even according to the filing suggesting she should engage in sexual relationships with older married conservative men. In april 2015, the suit also alleges he asked her again for a meeting to discuss the five and suggested a drink in his office. Since being seen in public together would get us into trouble. The lawsuit claims she rejected his advances and the professional opportunities disappeared. In a statement an attorney for roger ailes says he denies the allegations, calling her description of events hogwash and total nonsense. Slamming her allegations as a massive character assassination in order to achieve what she did not accomplish on the merits. When the allegations first surfaces, fox news instituted new policies and conducted an investigation using an outside law firm, on monday, employees were reminded to report any Workplace Behavior issues to human resources.

Its really good to be here. As i understand it, you came pretty close. I had what they called a widowmaker. And it was a 6 survival rate. And the fact that there were doctors in the gym when i had the heart attack saved my life. I want to talk to you about those moments and the days afterwards. First of all, how are you doing . You look fantastic. Thank you. How do you feel . I feel good. I have been doing my cardiac rehab monday, wednesday, friday. Its been hugely beneficial for me. Theyve taken good care of me. Im feeling good. Im taking it one day at a time. Im doing exactly what the doctors tell me to do. I know youre a good patient. I am. Tell me about that day. You were working out. Not a surprise. Thats something you do a lot. What did you feel and when did you know that something was going on . I dont remember that day at all. Really . I was told, i went to the gym like i always to. It was sunday morning. I was working out with friends of mine. At the end of the workout, i went down to the ground. If youve done cross fit, you know a lot of people two to the ground. But it wasnt until a minute or so later that people realized that something was going on. And the coach went into full damage control found there was an event going on at the gym. And found two doctors that were there. I was so lucky. Thank god they were. They revived you or did a defibrillation of you . They started performing cpr on me. They pulled out the aeds and used that on me twice before the paramedics got there. You had a heart attack. You went into cardiac arrest. I was in full cardiac arrest. My heart stopped. Not to be dramatic. I was dead. On that ground dead. When you woke up in the hospital a few days later because you went into a coma, what went through your mind . How did you even grasp this reality . It was superscary for me. I woke up and i was so confused. My friends and family that were all there, they i had this i was like dory from finding nemo because i had shortterm memory. I was reliving the heart attack over and over. Why am i here . What happened to me . And ten minutes later, i was asking the same thing. My friends were so great. They were like, it was really so sad but kind of funny, too, because they were reliving it over and over again. So, you obviously are the very picture of health. Youre someone we hold up as somebody who is in excellent physical shape. And yet, you had a heart attack at the age of 51. That must have been shocking to you. What have you learned about yourself that led to this . It was hugely shocking for me. Ive learned alearned that gene play a part of this. And its so important to know your health. Im a guy that lives a very healthy lifestyle. Very regimented. I work out all the time. But there were things going on inside of my body that i needed to be more aware of. And i strongly encourage anyone who is listening right now to go to the doctor, get your cholesterol checked and see whats going on on the inside, so you dont it opportunity happen to you what happened to me. You think, did i push myself too hard . Of course. I think about so many things now. I think about before the heart attack, i was having busy spells. And uh thought maybe i should have really taken that more seriously. But, man, its been a huge wakeup call for me. So much to go through to really become to get that close to death. So, when i ask you the next question, i asked about your heart. But now, im asking about your heart. How is dealing with this emotionally been . Its been hard. I am going through im going through some depression. I am, like, facing you face your mortality. And im understanding whats important and whats really important in life. And let me tell you, i am not sweating the small things and im not sweating the big things anymore. I care about my friends. I care about my family. I care about my dog. Im going the appreciate every, single day that im here. I guess so emotional talk about it because i havent talked about it. Its a beautiful life. Were glad to have you sitting here.

Heres nbcs joe fryer. Ended w 900 people. Heres nbcs joe fryer. Jonestown was supposed to be a paradise in the south american jungle. It was anything but. The saddest part about this tragedy is that good, decent people died, who were wellintentioned. Reporter the story begins in america during the 1970s, when jim jones created a religious movement called peoples temple. He fought for civil rights and had a multiracial family. It was the original rainbow family. Reporter including his adopted son, jim jones jr. Did his message resonate with you . No isms. Reporter the road to jonestown showed how jones started to change. He has convinced himself that he is some sort of superhuman martyr. Reporter jones persuaded nearly 1,000 followers to move to a remote jungle in guyana. The concept was to build a new world. Reporter a utopia. Jonestown was described as a paradise. And it was not. Reporter Leslie Wagner wilson said followers were overworked and underfed. As time went on, i realized theres no future in jones town. Jim became increasingly paranoid. Reporter jones was obsessed with revolutionary suicide. He felt followers should be prepared to die for their cause, having them drink fruit punch he claimed was poisoned. Only after they drank, he would tell them, im just te testing you. Reporter a concerned congressman flew to guyana to investigate. Accompanied by nbc news. While some followers praised jonestown, others wanted out. Your wish today . To be back home. Where is home . The u. S. Reporter as the congressman left, he took 15 defectors with him, angering jones. People play games, friend. They lie. They lie. What can i do about liars . Youre going to leave us. I beg you, please leave us. Reporter he ordered gunmen to follow the group to the nearby airstrip. Get on the plane. Reporter where they opened fire. Five were killed, including congressman ryan. Nbc correspondent, don harris and cameraman bob brown. The sound engineer and the field producer escaped, as did ryan aide and future congresswoman jackie speier. At the commune, jones gathered his followers were for a final sermon. Lets just be done with it. Lets be done with the agony of it. Reporter this time, jones served a punch spiked with cyanide. More than 900 died. 300 of them children. Jones shot himself. We know from autopsies conducted later that a considerable number of people were held and forcibly injected with the poison. Reporter in the end, how many relatives did you lose . I lost 11 relatives. Reporter Wagner Wilson and her 3yearold lived because they were part of a group that escaped that morning, hiking through 30 miles of dense jungle to safety. How scared were you to try to escape . I was terrified. I was waiting for a bullet to hit at any moment. I was ur prepared to die on that day. I dont know how i can describe it in words. Reporter jim jones jr. At the time lost his wife. He lived because he was in georgetown, as part of his relations work for the temple. The milliondollar question is, would i have done it . I cant say i would. But i cant say i wouldnt have. Reporter that shows how much power jones had. Part of it is because we all are looking for a place to fit into the world. Were looking for love. Were looking for acceptance. And jim jones provided that. Reporter today, a memorial in oakland serves as a remembrance for those who died. Predominantly africanamericans and the elderly, whose jones initial message resonated with. I think the message of jonestown is to go within so you dont have to go without. Its better to live for a cause than die for it. Reporter despite what happened, the ministers son still goes by the name jim jones jr. Im proud of the upbringing and the education i was given. Thats a lot to be proud of. I have to accept the horrific tragedy that my father caused. But he caused me, not me. Reporter for today, joe fryer, nbc news. Looking back, i remember the headlines around that time. And it was you almost couldnt even get your arms around the idea of what had happened there. Its unfathomable.

David schwimmer is best known as ross from friends, of course. And also his role on the people versus o. J. Simpson. This morning, hes here to talk about a new series of psas that hes produced to raise awareness about Sexual Harassment. Schwimmer stars in one of them. Youre amazing. Youre very sweet. I want to know, i really believe in you. You know . These are cool. Did you david schwimmer, good morning. Good morning. I just was thinking, we know you in so many different ways. And it feels unusual, a project that we wouldnt necessarily expect. But then again, why not . You produced six videos. Why was it important to you . The six short films with felt i really did them with a bunch of friends. Because we felt given the current climate where women and advocates are fighting for basic human civil rights, we just felt like we needed to put a face on what Sexual Harassment actually is. So, these are six different forms of Sexual Harassment that we felt would help empower people to really understand what it is. And to recognize it. And then, to speak out against it. I watched them. It struck me. The camera never blinks. And you just sit there and you watch these scenarios unfold. And theres no cuts. Its just a scene. Youre kind of like a fly on the wall. Yeah. And youre right. It doesnt allow you to blink or look away. Or get away from the discomfort. Next scene. Youre sitting there soaking in it. Was that the point to make people feel that discomfort . Absolutely. Well, the point really is to move people. And for people to understand and to recognize, men and women, no matter what their religious or political beliefs, this is not a partisan issue. This is all women in this country. And we want to put a face on it and kind of explicitly state that its not acceptable. And in order to do that, you have to know what it is. You have to recognize it when you yourself are being harassed or when your friend is or a coworker. You have to be able to recognize it and be able to speak out against it. These are just coming out. Youre starting to get reaction. I know you had shown them to a few people. And there was an interesting distinction between what female viewers of these videos, what they took away from it, versus some of your male colleagues or guy friends who saw it. I think men and women what did you notice . I think men and women will have a different experience watching the films. Women, from what weve seen and heard so far, a lot of women watch these and realize, oh, my god, when i had that one doctor exam with a doctor i didnt know, i was being harassed in that moment. And so, in fact, my own mom, i grew up, my mom was a young lawyer in california in the 70s, 80s and 90s. And i grew up with countless stories of her being harassed. But i sent her these films. And that was the first time she had told me she had been harassed by her doctor. And told me that my sister as a young girl was sexually harassed by her doctor. And also told me that my sister as a young girl was also sexually harassed. Anyway, its not im not saying all doctors are bad. The opposite. Hopefully these films will really we want to inspire discussion, really. I thought it was interesting. I read that when you talked to our producer, some male friends of yours would say, i dont know. I know im going back in my history. Did i do some of this stuff, really, not thinking much of it . I think men will have that experience. They will think back or theyll think about their current behavior in the workplace. A buddy of mine in one of the films. Hes one of the good guys. Hes bpretty aware. But he realized that on set, on a tv set, hell maybe give a hug to, you know, one of the women on the crew or in the Wardrobe Department or makeup. Hey, as a hug goodbye or good work. He doesnt do that to the guys. So, he suddenly realized maybe i shouldnt be doing that. Maybe i should just say thank you. You know, and good work. And not do the hug because its also about power and because hes a star and theyre, you know, below the line, theres often, as we find, this is about the dynamic of power. An employer employee. And theres a lot of fear of speaking up or retaliation as were aware of. Its a good way to have a springboard for conversation and reflection. Thank you so much. How can people see the videos if they want to see them . They can go to our official Facebook Page thatsharassment. Thats one way.

Married without kids, they say 11yearold golden retriever rena is their baby. And good moments matter more now in her golden years. The hardest part about having a pet. Having a dog, is saying goodbye at the end. They hope a new drug will delay that. It would be a good time to see if we could extend her life. Reporter rena is one of two dozen older dogs in the dog aging project, a new study looking at rapamycin, an immuno depre depressant for people after organ transplants. I know its early and youre being cautious. Are you tremendously excited about this possibility . Its hard not to be excited. Reporter matt is the studys codirector. He says research already shows rapamycin boosts longevity in nice by 25 . This study mouse, the equivalent of 140 years old. Not only is life span extended. But all of the diseases of aging and all of the declines and function with aging are delayed. Reporter in his new study published monday, each dog took one pill three times a week for ten weeks. The results, better heart function with owners reporting increased energy and mobility in their dogs. We saw changes in the dogs that look much like the changes that have been seen in nice. Reporter it was a dramatic difference . Absolutely. Reporter this study participant says rapamycin transformed her bulldog, mac, from slow and sleepy to spritely. Looking a little more antsy like, lets go play. Reporter she wants mack in phase two of the study, expected to start next month. It will look at longterm affects of rapamycin. Thats for someone that has a dog that expects 12 years and gets 15. Especially if the three or four years are spent in good health. Reporter for dog owners they give you unconditional love. Reporter nothing is more precious than the gift of time. We can keep her around for another couple years, so we dont have to go through the sad goodbye, i think thats priceless. Researchers say it will take three to five years to complete the study before the drug could be available publicly for dogs. If its successful, the antiaging effects could be studied in people next. Guys . How long is that going to take . I know. Im ready. Thank you, katie. Up next, want to show off your green thumb this summer . Now is the right time to spruce up your garden. Got all of the tips you need. Going to get to those in a little while. First, this is today on nbc. This morning on our special series up grade your home were helping to spruce up your garden. Chris lampkin is host of controlled chaos. Good to see you. Good morning, matt. How are you today . Zb great. If it werent bad, wed be doing this outside. True. Most of the projects are fairly simple. You say, when you take on anything, you have to have a plan. You want to plan out. If youre installing a new bed or planting an existing bed, you want to have the right plants for it. Yearround color is the most pont important thing. Lets talk about potting some plants. This takes up space in the bottom of the plant, its annuals. They dont need that much room to grow. You put the last iplastic bottl the bottom. And my planting plan, the thriller, the filler and the spiller. The thriller is the pansies. We got the spiller over here, an ivy. Ornamental grasses. You can use chives to put in there. You dont need to pill the pot full of potting soil. Thats only going to grow six to ten inches of roof space. Most people look at clay pots. Youve changed some up here. This is how they looked. Add a little indoor outdoor spray piaint. Make it match your shutters or anything you want. A lot of people in the country where a threat of frost is getting real. Get the garden started indoors. This is fun, too. I planted, the cucumbers, zucchini coming up. This is my garden. Im planting my garden with this. Its an egg container. And its a minigreenhouse. You start these vegetables. And save money going from seed than buying a larger plant. Next, we talk about compost, which sounds a little more involved. A little messier. A lot of people say i will get somebody to do this for me. I love composting. You can do your lint from the dryer. These are leaves and grass clippings. Rush up the eggshells, it breaks down. Most have a charcoal insert. And you bring them to the backyard. How long does it take things to break down. 6 to 12 months. Right now is when you add the compost to your garden. That gives the nutrients that you need. In the spring, we talk about trimming. What things get trimmed in the spring versus the fall. Ing in like a rhododendron, you dont trim them now. They have the buds of the flower on them. A holly bush. Snip it down. You can get a nice design to it. If your holly is overgrown, you want to prune it down, shape it. You want a little space here. The lower branches will root. And that will ruin your planting plant. The question, to mulch or not to mulcmulch. Is this functional or esthetic . It will act as a compost. And it will stop weeds from growing. Here, we have three different kinds. A i like the brown mulch. It looks like dirt. As it breaks down, it gives the nutrients to your garden. And it smells nice, too. Good tips. Thank you very much. Congratulations on the new program. Thank you, matt. You can get the tips at today. Com home. Up next, carson and siri. Were cooking with the dalys in the kitchen. Theyre making something im going to rush up to get to. Nobody told me to expect it. Intercourse thats painful due to menopausal changes. Its not likely to go away on its own. It took my most honest friend to help me do something about it. She told me premarin vaginal cream can help. It provides estrogens to help rebuild vaginal tissue and make intercourse more comfortable. Premarin vaginal cream treats vaginal changes due to menopause and moderatetosevere painful intercourse caused by these changes. Dont use it if youve had unusual vaginal bleeding, breast or uterine cancer, blood clots, liver problems, stroke or heart attack, are allergic to any of its ingredients or think youre pregnant. Side effects may include headache, pelvic pain, breast pain, vaginal bleeding and vaginitis. Estrogens may increase your chances of getting cancer of the uterus, strokes, blood clots, or dementia so use it for the shortest time based on goals and risks. Estrogens should not be used to prevent Heart Disease, heart attack, stroke or dementia. Ask your doctor about premarin vaginal cream. Indid may imagine april showersy bringing her fashionable, flowers at such a sunny price . Never but thats the beauty of a store full of surprises. You never know what youre gonna find, but you know youre gonna love it. Were back, 8 51. One of our favorite segments. Lets say it together. Dining with the dalys. Carson and siri cooking up the perfect menu. Look at them. Like the swedish chef over there. Leave me alone. Were going to make some pulled pork sandwiches to start. We love to entertain. We love to have our family over. This is a great buildityourself meal. Okay. First, we start with the pork butt or pork shoulder. Were such dorks. Were going to throw it in the slow cooker. This is four to five pound. Were going to put the spices in a bowl. Brown sugar, salt, chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne, paprika. Thats going to make a nice love. We will rub our behind. Rub the butt . Can you also use the shaft of the pork . Oh, boy. We like to stick with the butt, matt. All right. Thats what my wife enjoys. I heard that. I hear it all the time. Both sides. Siri said she was going to make pulled pork sandwiches, its intimidating. But its like a whole thing. But its a onepot cook. Its very easy. Were going to put this whole thing over here. And underneath here are onions, ni sliced onions and garlic. We have to add our Chicken Stock and Apple Cider Vinegar that gives a little punch. Only one side of the behind. I didnt have time. I will rub both sides. That cooks on low for eight to ten hours. On high for six to eight hours. This is what it looks like. Carson is shredding the meat. It falls off. I like to do bone necessarless. We took our mixture of onions and garlic. You put it back in there. And you want to keep the liquid because it will moisten the meat. And theres barbecue sauce. You pull it off and put it back in. You dont need to put all of the liquid in. I thought it was good. Siri didnt put too much barbecue sauce. People dont like it overly saturated. It can be a little plain and add it later. Go up to our building station. And we have homemade coleslaw that you can get online at today. Com. It has almonds in it so its crunchy. And the pulled par eed pork. Is this a potato bun. You build that. Im going to move on to our smashed potatoes. So good. I love coleslaw and pork. Youre not liking the slaw . The recipe is online. So good with the slaw and everything else. These are the smashed potatoes. Our neighbor makes these. They have been parboiled. In salted water. Its important to add salt to the water. Until theyre about forktender. And then, i just take the masher. You can use a fork and just smash them ever so slightly. Just a little bit. You dont want to smash it. Just until they break apart. Its amazing all the years weve seeaten potatoes. Then, add garlic, and salt. Nice job, savannah. A little aggression . Everything okay at home, savannah . Which part of slightly do you not get . You need to talk . You okay . The margarita is coming up soon. Grizzle the mixture on top. You dont need to smash it again. I want to crush it. And they get supercrispy. I love it. Like a lilt chip. These are really good. Carson is making margarita. Im going to pair this, what goes good with in a . Tequila. And a good, Old Fashioned beer. This is a texas margarita. Its like a blanco tequila we pour over ice. An orange liqueur. Im going straight up with orange juice. Im not going to worry about the measurements. Instead of sweet and sour, im going to pour half of a pbr. You can salt the rim if thats your fancy. Its a little different. It gives a different. You dont taste the beer at all. All right.

What was the least sexy part of working with bradley coop center. Probably his left shoulder. The shoulder my naked body jumped on. Probably the least sexy part. He will attest to that. Good question. I have to ask you about that one. You work with amazing comedians, which costar made you laugh the most . Zach galifianakis, seth rogen or kevin hart . Three of the funniest ive worked with in my career. All three were funny in different ways. Zach is so quickwitted. Seth rogen has an amazing presence. And kevin hart, hes most energetic. All of them are dear friends. Its a tie. I love all three of them. All of them are good guys. Like the funny guys. They are. And seth rogen actually guest starred on the season finale. Did a cameo. Thank you to seth. When youre on set with different comedians, is everybody cracking jokes left and right . Or is it chill . It depends on the mood of the day, just like anything else. If we have work to do, well buckle down and focus. If its really loose, we joke around, its heaven because youre joking around with the funniest guys on the planet. One more. Big finish. What is your biggest phobia . Id say cockroaches. That was nice. Im afraid of cockroaches. You played it so cool last time. I was in shock, i think. Last week there was a cockroach segment. I thought there would be no cockroaches by michael, carb carbonaro. You didnt flinch. It was my acting abilities. I was not acting cool. I thought it was way worse in person. I came back to my hotel room, with my suit. And i found a cockroach. You didnt . I absolute gospel. I did not tell anyone that. Did it crawl up your leg . It was on the pants leg.

Its scary to think these are healthy people. Youre in the prime of your life the and it was so thankful that he was here to talk about it. Everything wept went okay. If it runs in the family, and it runs in any family. Check yourself out. We were listening to his every word. Savannah asked how close bob came to dying from a heart attack. Heres what he had to say. I had a widowmaker. It was a 6 survival rate. And the fact there were doctors in the gym when i had the heart attack, saved my life. Performing cpr on me. They pulled out the aeds and used that on my twice before the paramedics got there superquick. And they jolted me one more time. I was in full cardiac arrest. My heart stopped. Not to be dramatic.

Im going through im going through some depression. You really face your mortality. I get so emotional talking about it. Wow. The fact he is here talking about it again is what we need to take away from this. Youre a doctor, obviously. We were asking you this morning. His mom suffered a fatal heart attack in 2008.

Theres a lot of different come poenlt ponents in heart di. In bobs case, a genetic component because his mother had Heart Disease also. A history of diabetes. Could be obesity and the artery that was clogged up is the main artery. The widowmaker . The widowmaker is the left its the main artery in front of the heart. Im quoting him. Thats a 6 to 10 survival rate. Heart attack means theres a plug or clog in that artery that leads to death or cardiac tissue. He experienced cardiac death in addition to a heart attack. I didnt realize there was a difference. A heart attack versus cardiac arrest. Your heart stops. I recommend that everyone go to their doctor. Everyone has a different medical history.

I can share. As you know, in l. A. , we dont do it if its not vegan. There you go. All of that good stuff. I was watching this last night. The story was 40 years ago . 1971. But its timeless. Can you talk about what its about . And would you agree this is a timeless series, really. It is timeless for a lot of reasons. One of them being that it seems like after doing research on this project, seems like history keeps repeating itself over and over again. And for some reason, it seems like we dont really learn from it. Maybe its a pattern. Maybe thats when evolution happens. And thats when you have the great shifts that happen in the political environment and social environment, as well. At 1971, against the backdrop of the immigration act of england, which did happen in 1971, which is not repealed was of 2017. Wow. And its a love story at the heart of it all. We want to tell a human story. Its a political backdrop. But the people that get affected are humans. And in this case, its this couple jas and marcus, who are backed up and the relationship is under pressure because of something they do that i dont want to reveal. But to further the revolution. What i like about the character is to me, it started as a normal couple that was thrust into the extraordinary situation. And then, it prompted you to have certain actions. Absolutely. And actions have consequences. So, for the rest of the first season, the arest of the episodes, they have to stand up for what they believe in and take responsibility for the actions theyve committed, as well. And its the way we were discussing this yesterday with a bunch of people. Theres two ways of looking at it. People might look at it as acts of violence and terrorism. Or it could be standing up for yourself. And its really an exploration of that throughout the season. Im excited about it. Congratulations. Thank you. Freed doe pinto, thank you for coming in.

This one picks up a couple i would say just after the last one. We are in cuba. That was my favorite part of the whole thing. Was it wild filming there . It was nuts. Cuba got so much attention after obama implemented some loosened up some laws to allow back and forth entry. And its just the culture there is so amazing. When people arent obsessed with technology, you see more human interaction. Young guys hugging. And kissing the old ladies in the street. Tons of activity in the coffee shops. People dancing. Everywhere you go, people socializing. And actually looking each other in the eye when they talk. It was just refreshing. You know. The Tourism Bureau thanks you. It was nice. Sounds lovely. People are great. Whats amazing, is that backdrop, combined with the fact that everyone cares about the characters so much, like letty and dom. You and vin hold the story and do it so well.

I cant imagine. These guys get to jump off of planes with cars. They get to blow things up. Like when it comes to me, theyre like, you know, blue screen, green screen. You know, the most fun i get to do is the fighting training. Anytime theres a fight, yes. I get handson stuff. This is great. I do most of my stuff off the screen. When im not working, thats when i hit the track or do gun training. Or all of that. Thats when i have fun. You do more than most of us. Youre so busy. You make me hungry for it. Im going training when i get out of here. I saw your instagram. And youre in the assignment. With walter hill. Who is here today. Two legends, man. Awesome. Can you go into that movie at all .

Who first introduced to one of the strongest female characters in movie history. Ellen ripley from alien films. Sigourney weaver and walter hill have joined forces for a new thriller the assignment. Weaver gives a hitman gender reassignment surgery. I have a traditional no, s nostalgia that everyone should have a second chance. But im a doctor, a scientist, in a way, an artist. I decided i wouldnt and couldnt do something simply for revenge. So, i also performed the surgery partially as an experiment. I wanted to reinforce the idea that if gender is identity, the most extreme surgical procedure will fail to alter the essence. And its proved to be true. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you. Its kind of a dark premise, to say the least, with this movie. Where did this idea come from . Denis hamil writer in new york, cooked up an original screenplay in 1978. I read it in 1978. That was a good year for us. It was. It had a lurid but i thought promising premise for a Motion Picture years later. I optioned the material. I did a bad script, which i then abandoned. And i reoptioned the material another ten years later. And we have the film i think it was tempered by the tales from the crypt approach that i had done a couple of those. Went from there. We had Michelle Rodriguez on. You just saw her there. She is a talent. Talk about she plays a hitman. Frank kitchen, right . Michelle is great, if you can pep her up a little. You know . She begins our tale. She is a product of the dregs of underworld society. She is totally amoral. Kills for money. But im happy to say in the film, she makes a moral progression, as does sigourneys character. Good to know. Who begins as as you said, a physician, surgeon, intellectual, bully, narcissist. Thats how i talk to my patients. Its look looking in the mirror, i said to myself. What i really liked about your movie, and ive read some interviews, it seemed to be a throwback to and im quoting you in interviews. A throwback to wonderfully entertaining b movies of yesteryor. Thats not a pajority. Its comic back noir. Its fun to watch people go through the machinations. Walter is such a wonderful writ writer. And my character had the most delicious speeches. After being incarcerated for this insane asylum, she gets a chance to speak her mind. And you cant shut her up. Fascinating dialogue. And two great women protagoni protagonists. Yes. Coming at each other in a fun, actionpacked way. For me to work with michelle again. We met on avatar. She goes for it. And she is so good in this movie. Et cetera what interesting is that all of the characters in walters strange, noir world, even though they are criminals and do despicable things, they have a moral compass. You like them. You feel for them. Thank you so much for coming in this morning. We could talk to you all day. Were back in a moment. First, this is today on nbc. I wanted to thank ken. Where did he go . There he is. There he is. Creeping in the background there. Stay with us for a little bit . Sure. I can cater. After a few clouds this morning, well have a lot of sunshine as we go through the day, and still a wide range in temperatures. From the coast, were in the lower 60s, breezy wind and some sunshine. As you work your way inland, well see temperatures reaching into the upper 70s. Near 80 degrees in concord today. Livermore, 76 degrees. 77 degrees today in morgan hill.
