Yai areas. Hundreds of thousands are without power. Schools still closed and airlines are scrambling to get up to speed. Hack attack. Hundreds of high profile twitter accounts hijacked overnight. Nazi symbols posted on the pages of celebrities, politicians and media outlets. Who was behind it . And take two. The dad whose Live Television interview became a world wide sensation after his children crashed into the room. Go goes back on tv. There was nothing i could do. The lesson he says hell never forget today, wednesday, march 15th, 2017. Welcome to today on this wednesday morning. We had the weather storm yesterday and were back to politics this morning. What a difference a night can make. A lot to cover in politics. Its our top story this morning. Lets get right to it. Were getting rare look at some of President Trumps tax returns. Documents he refused to release during the campaign. Theres also new fallout over the republicans plan to replace obamacare. And the president s claims that phones at trump tower were wire tapped. Nbcs Peter Alexander is at the white house with more on all of this, good morning. Good morning to you, were getting reaction from President Trump as we speak. Moments ago he tweeted questioning how a reporter went to his mail box and found mr. Trumps tax returns. The president calls it fake news. The white house says the leaked 2005 form reinforces what Donald Trumps been saying all along, hes an incredibly successful businessman. Its refocusing a spotlight on mr. Trumps unwillingness to turn this morning, the release is raising questions about who leaked the form and why. Overnight a rare look at documents President Trump is still himself refusing to share. We have his federal tax return for one year for 2005. Msnbc Rachel Maddow airing a portion of mr. President trumps 2005 tax return. The words client copy stamped on the pages. It reveals he paid 38 million, writing off more than 100 million in losses. His effective tax rate, 25 . The reporter who obtained the document suggests they could have come from President Trump. He has a long history of leaking material about himself when he thinks its in his interest. The white house preempting the release while attacking the ratings when youre willing to violate the law to push two pages of returns. He claims they remain under audit. The only one that cares about my tax returns are the reporters. Democrats pounced writing the white houses willingness to release Tax Information when it suits them proves his audit excuse is a sham. It was a brief distraction for the rocky rollout of the healthcare plan. Despite fierce criticisms, some within the president s own party, the white house isnt abandoning the republican plan. This is it. If we dont get this through, the goal of repealing obamacare and instituting a system that will be patient centered is going to be unbelievable difficult. This is the vehicle to do that. Democrats keeping up the pressure. Arguing the republican bill only benefits the rich. Also this morning, with a Senate Subcommittee set to hold a hearing zeroing in on russian interference on the election. Lindsey graham ordered the fbi not to ignore his order. Im going to make an announcement about the letter and let the fbi know theyre about to screw up big time if they keep running to the Intel Committee and not answer that letter. The white house Still Standing by President Trumps explosive wire tapping allegations aimed at president obama. I think he feels confident well ultimately come to this well vindicate him. Basically in plain english some republicans are saying its put up or shut up time for the administration, that includes new comments from the Judiciary Committee chairman says block President Trumps deputy general pick until he gets russiarelated answers from the justice department. Well talk to senator graham about russias interference in the election and those accusations from the president he was wire tapped. Well find out if senator graham is going to get the information he wants. Lets get to the tax returns. We get a two page summary from 2005. Is there a bomb shell here . Not a bomb shell. But we learned that the president , like many wealthy americans pay as lower rate lawfully than so many other people who make less. Thats something he said. I fight to not pay taxes, i dont want to pay as many taxes. Let me ask you this, the white house put this information out. Preemptively late last night and said it was illegal for reporters to talk about it. Federal law tightly controls tax returns. You cago the media in this area can usually report on unauthorized disclosure if there was a crime. Based on what was leaked and what wasnt included and the timing, any ideas who might have leaked it . Thats the big question. We had over a year. Now here we are after the election. Donald trump, his accountant, his family, people at the irs would have this. In that small universe who leaked it, we dont know. A lot of whats in there on this particular year goes towards things donald trump has said. That he did have high revenue. Its not illegal to leak your own tax returns. The document says client copy. Who got it . We dont know. Thank you. Joining us now, republican senator Lindsey Graham. Nice to see you, good morning. Good morning. Slow news day. Th senator whitehouse have given director comey a deadline of today to let you know whether there is an active investigation into russian ties to the Trump Campaign. A, is it true. B, do you think youll get that information today . Yes, two weeks ago we met with director comey who i like and admire and told him bitt 15th we would like to know if theres an active criminal investigation because congress shouldnt interfere. Were going to have a hearing on russia, i dont want to bump into a criminal investigation if there is one. In terms of the letter we wrote, i want an answer. The fbi and department of justice last week, for any evidence of a warrant that would allow wire tapping. If it doesnt happen the fbi is about to screw up big time, what happens if they dont comply . Congress will flex its muscle here. Senator grassley has subpoena to get the information. Well hold up the Deputy Attorney generals nomination until congress is provided with information to clear the air as to whether or not there was a warrant issued against the Trump Campaign. Number one youre saying director comey should tell you whether there is even an investigation into Trump Campaign ties to russia. Number two, the issue were talking about, theresident made an accusation against then president obama that he wire tapped his phones. You have asked the fbi to produce evidence for a warrant, application for a warrant any requests to surveil trump or trump tower. Do you think youll get the information today . If we dont get it today, congress will ramp up pressure. There are two different questions. Is there an investigation. Because i need to know before i move forward into investigating russia from a congressional lane. I dont want to interfere with a criminal investigation if there is one. Was a warrant, thats an easy question to be answered. And the president has suggested the former president had his Campaign Wire tapped. The only way he could do that is through a warrant. Tell me whether or not there was a warrant issued. Not the first time the president has made an accusation and said to congress you should look into this. You are pushing hard to get answers here. Are you trying to send the president a message that what he tweets is going to be held accountable for what he tweets and the accusation he make . Im trying to take him up on his challenge to look into his accusation. I dont know of any evidence where the fbi tried to obtain a warrant against the Trump Campaign to wire tap them. The accusation was made, he challenged the congress to get to the bottom of it. We will. If you want to challenge the congress to do things in the you strike me as a guy as having a good bs monitor. What does your monitor tell you about the wire tapping story, senator . Do you think its real. When i first heard it, it was a wild claim. I really dont know. If its not true, tell me its not true. Why is it taking so long to get the answer . So i have no evidence of it. Im suspicious of it. But now im getting concerned because its taking so long to answer my letter. Let me ask you about this, the white house has simultaneously dug in, the press secretary saying yesterday theyre confident that the president s accusation will ultimately be verified and hell be vindicated. Theyre kind of moving the goal posts because theyre saying when the president said i was wire tapped he put it in quotes. There were several tweets where he said president obama tapped my phone. What do you make of that . Do you buy that in terms of the shifting explanation for what the alleon president obama wire tapped my phone to was there any warrant issued against the Trump Campaign, trump tower or trump operative. I want to know if there was. And if theres not, with we need to put it to bed. Heres something that would be very explosive. If the federal government was able to obtain a warrant from a judge, then they had to have probable cause that the Trump Campaign was colluding with the russians. They say they have no evidence of a warrant. If there was a warrant, that would be big news. I dont think theres a warrant. But i wish they would tell me one way or the other. By the way, theres healthcare, senator. As its written right now, this bill in the house, is it dead on arrival . It is mortally wounded. I dont know if its died yet. Rand paul will not refundable tax credits is entitlement in another form. Medicate is fundamentally broken. I dont like that. This is the last best chance for republicans to pass healthcare by themselves, and screw it up. Heres what i hope the president would do. Try to get a good bill, if you cant, let obamacare collapse. And challenge the democrats to help him fix a problem they created. Real quick question, is this a good bill . Is it a good deal . Not right now. Medicaid is not where i want it to be. And this thing will collapse, obamacare will under its own weight. Were trying to do too much too quick. Were running through stop signs, much like president obama did, slow down, get it right. Youre not going to get 60 votes to buy insurance across state if you think thats important to healthcare reform, its never going to happen in the senate. Too bad you dont speak your mind, senator. Its awfully nice to have you here, thank you so much. Good morning. All right. By the way, tomorrow on today were going to have an exclusive interview with someone hes familiar with, former South Carolina governor and new u. S. Ambassador to the United Nations nikki haley. He does have a way with words. This morning, cleanup underway after tuesdays winter storm hit the northeast with heavy snow ice, and high winds. We have complete coverage beginning with miguel almanguer. Hes in worcester, massachusetts. Good morning. Good morning. This is what so many are waking up to here in worcester. Homes and cars buried under a thick layer of snow. Take a live look from our drone. So much of this community, much of the state looks just like and we are buried in snow. Overnight, more sleet and snow from a punishing storm, pommelling eight states and 70 Million People. One week its warm, next week blizzard. With parts of the northeast buried under more than two feet of snow and ice, the roads were dangerous and deadly. In new hampshire, a teenager lost her life after losing control of her car. In connecticut, an elderly man killed by a plow. While another driver flipped over in upside new york. Really bad. In pennsylvania, an 80 mile escort by the National Guard to rush a twoyearold to the hospital. A half dozen student injured after a rollover. A tractor trailer jackknifed on a boston bridge. Homes were covered in ice. Our team covered it all. Were per hour wind gusts. Were talking about heavy snowfall with several feet high snow berms. Im blake mccoy in ridge wood new jersey. While the storm may have been a bust in the bigger cities it packed quite a punch here. Eight inches of snow on the ground kept most people home. Im anne thompson. For the most part people heeded the advice to stay off the roads. With Hurricane Force winds whipping through the region, massive waves pounded the coast. A blizzard in worcester and a blistering reminder winter isnt over yet. For those hit by cold temperatures in all that snow, the weathers not going to help today. The temperature will stay below freezing across so much of the state. While its white in cities like worcester. In washington, d. C. And new york by the coast, they were spared for the most part. That doesnt help the though here who are waking up to all this snow. Back to you guys. All right. Miguel almanguer, thank you. The storm is still having a major impact on air travel coast to coast. Cancellation of thousands of flights. How are the Airlines Getting back on track . Gabe gutierrez is at La Guardia Airport for us. The airlines are scrambling to catch up. But theres virtually no lines behind me. The challenge will be rebooking all of the stranded passengers. On tuesday there were more than 6,200 canceled flights across the country. Today, more than a thousand flights have been canceled. The major airports that are impacted here in the northeast are the new york city airports, la guardia, newark and jfk as well as baltimore and boston. As we take a look at the misery map, you can see its mostly clear but there is red popping up in the new york city airports an Public Transportation is mostly back up and running. Amtrak is running modified service in the northeast. If you do not have a flight already rebooked, chances are youre out of look today. It could be several days before the airlines clear this back log. Back to you. All right. Thank you very much. That brings us to al. What do we expect . We were talking earlier before the broadcast, the chief of forecast operations for the Weather Prediction Center in maryland said they he gave an interview saying on monday afternoon, we actually knew that the totals along the coast were going to be lower than we thought. But we didnt change it because we basically wanted people to heed the forecast. Not take it too lightly. Not take it too lightly. I see that as a cover your butt kind of thing. The fact st is we did say there could be a change in that path. And that would make a big difference along the coast. Closer to the coa less snow. We were within the lower ranges of our forecast. New york city picked up 7 and a half. The suburbs of new york seeing 12 inches. Islip, three inches of snow. For today, were going to see some wrap around snow. Lake effect snow as well. Snowfall amounts additionally through rochester through burlington, vermont. Could see another foot of snow into thursday. Were going to get to your local forecast coming up in the next 30 seconds. Good morning, im storm team 4 meteorologist chuck bell. Bright sunshine for a few more hours before clouds fill back in. Could have passing flurry or two later this morning into the afternoon.

Were back. 7 41, our on going series the hacking of america and its more timely than ever. Tom costello travelled to london to talk to the worlds leading experts on cybersecurity. That must have been fascinating. Its haunting is the bottom line. Cybersecurity experts are issuing what many call a code red threat level as the global pace of computer hacking has picked up dramatically, going from phishing and malware scams to ransom ware and full throttle espionage. The recent offer a glimpse into the hidden word of cyber espionage. Coming amid allegations of Russian Election meddling, the hacking of america is a global phenomenon. There really are no International Borders anymore in the digital world. Thats right. Hackers have torn down all of those traditional boundaries. We came to london to meet up with james line, the head of Global Research at sophos security. Its not just your individual privacy at risk, america and its Critical Infrastructure are vulnerable. We have a map showing Industrial Control Systems that are exposed to the internet. Power stations, water systems, telecom. Thats it. In the u. S. Alone, 13,000 systems that should have cyber walls around them, but instead are virtually unprotected. We can see a large number of Industrial Control Systems that are exposed.

Theres a lot of cyber crime infrastructure in russia, china, and eastern europe. But the truth is, the person controlling those infrastructures could be anywhere. Perhaps 50 meters down the road here in london. At a cafe. Is it possible to hack the hackers . It turns out yes, by using the very tools they sell online. The hackers selling this kit for 2,000 is now in prison. Its very simple to set up. For our purposes, james hacked his own system but he could turn the technology on the bad guys. Perhaps on this system, there is some fragment of user information that tells us who they are. Any hacking is illegal. Which means, its up to spy agencies and the police to actually hack the hackers. They used to lock people up in the tower of london but today we cant even find the hackers. Thats true. Whilst there have been arrests of individuals by Law Enforcement most of them remain anonymous out there in the world. What can you do to protect yourself from International Hackers . Practice the basics. Use long complicated passwords, never the same one twice. Keep your Computer Software up to dat you may consider turning off Location Services and the cloud backup. And be very suspicious of any emails from people you dont know, because what i learned is that if the world spies can do this, hackers can do this as well. You just take this and throw it away for me please. What do you have tomorrow . Tomorrow were going to look at ransom ware. This is concerning.

The president is firing back, hes questioning the reporters claim that the documents were found in his mail box calling it fake news. New questions over who leaked this information and why, all of spotlight. For the first time, a look at a federal tax return of President Trumps. A two page snap shot of his 2005 filing showing he earned 150 million and paid 38 million in taxes that year. A tax rate of 25 . A document stamped client copy was shared with the Rachel Maddow show. The reporter saying, the partial return came to him in the mail anonymo anonymously. From his long history of leaking material about himself. The white house confirming the numbers, but dismissing their significance. In a statement saying, quote, you know you are dpresperate fo ratings when youre willing to violate the law to push a story about tax returns from over a decade ago. The president repeat laly said would not release his is he still under audit . Hes still under audit. The Democratic National committee saying the white houses willingness to release some information when it suits him proves the audit excuse is a scam.

I think he feels confident that it will vindicate him. Clearly an extremely busy day here in washington, as President Trump gets ready as we mentioned to head on the road. Not just to nashville, hes set to talk jobs in detroit later today. Plenty for the president to be pressed on at a press conference set to happen friday with angela merkel.

So i think they knew pascal was out with kourtney. Keeping up with the kardashians is sunday. Al roker a check of the weather. Our friends out west seeing a little wet weather, especially from seattle down to medford, oregon. And Crescent City looking at showers. We look for river flooding and some land slides possible as well. As far as the rest of the country is concerned. Through the southwest with temperatures in the 80s and 90s. 30s in the plains, 20s in the northeast and new england. Were looking for windy, cold conditions. Still some snow left over through western pennsylvania, upstate new york and new england. Snow melt happening through the cascades. Warm and dry through the southwest. Plenty of sunshine through the midplains into the upper great lakes. Thats whats going on around the countries, heres whats happening in your neck of the woods. The story is all about the cold and wind. Temperatures only in the low to mid20s outside with wind chills back down between about 5 and 10 degrees across most of the area. Theres your current wind chills there. 13 the current feels like factor in culpepper and nine in frederick, maryland. Our extreme cold will gradually moderate, into the mid to upper 40s by friday. Rain drops coming up on your saturday. Thats your latest weather. Thanks very much. The voice on today and adam levine. Back for a 12th season as a coach. As youll see from this sneak peek, at northeast weeks show his bromance with Blake Shelton is alive and well. You both big time, like singers here. I dont know how you wound up in the same pairing. It probably had something to do with dumb dumb. But ashley, i thought you came out today and you might have taken it. Thanks, ellen. So good. You made how many jokes . Does he prewrite them . No, i wrote them. He has no creativity. You were so young when this started. It seems like five minutes. I had one child when we started the show and christina had max. Through 12 seasons its grown. Thats been the most friend for me blossom and seeing yours. Its a crazy thing. It is a family, too, the show. It feels like such a tight knit thing at this point. I dont even know how i would do without it almost. Its bizarre, a permanent fixture. I have three kids, too. Why dont you bring them to the show, they can play. When you meet these young contestants is it impossible not to see your young self in them . Yes and no because i see some of myself in it and its such a completely different thing than i i didnt grow up with that. We didnt havent the voice or american idol. I guess we had sctar search but we were in a band. The drive, commitment, the music, the passion for music is very much the same. I guess the medium is different. We never set out for the to feel like a sitcom. People think its written but its not. With alicia and gwen, their girl crush i think almost more of a story line than you and blakes. Its nice because it was always the lone female that had to fend for herself with these three frat boys and it was tough. I dont envy it. Now theyve got a partner in crime here. I thought part of the genius of the show was the distinction between a coach and a judge. And so we get to know the people who do really well on the show. The ones who make it to the finals. Is there someone whose story touched you and moved you and you stay in touch with perhaps who didnt become a name we all know . Unfortunately it happens a lot. People who win, people who dont win. People ive established connections with, there is many of them and i talk to them constantly. Jordan smith i talk to once, twice a month. You know, just to keep tabs on see if i can help. I cant help everybody, being totally honest about it. Just as someone that can provide them with advice or say hello or see whats going on. You want to stay in touch because theyre friends. You consider them to be your friends. Youve been through an experience with them and want to continue to be a men tore. Its weird, because blake doesnt travel. Room five travels all over the globe. When we shoot the show, your show must be crazy. Blake doesnt have gigs in europe. No, he does not. I would like to see a Blake Shelton concert in paris. I can see how hes able hey, paris.

Its like our carson daly, flying back coast to coast. Youre basically on tour, y just go to two places. Wild, crazy, im grateful because its incredible to have this much success for so long. Its fun, i have fun doing it all. If it wasnt fun, its exhausting, but to complain about it would obviously be stupid. Its fun. Do blake again. Dont get him started. Hi how yaall doing. Hey, japan. No way. Not at all. Hey, tokyo. I dont know why not unless youre on the road more. Youve got new music . New music. Going to tour this summer . Not sthis summer.

Heres whats happening in your neck of the woods. Well, it is below freezing and it will stay feeling well below freezing through the afternoon. 24 is the temperature in the district, feeling more like 10. Its going to be a windy day, so blustery, many areas feeling like gaithersburg and dulles, feeling like 6. We have a wind advisory until 6 00 p. M. Winds could be gusting up to 55 Miles Per Hour.

Just a friend. Looks like you could be brothers. Thanks for coming back. You come back in another ten . Plan on it. Dont forget check your weather anytime you need to go to the Weather Channel. Were good, mom. Yes you are. Thank you very much. Now more of our female firsts today series in honor of womens history month. This has been fun. Who do you have this morning . We talked about women in politics and hear from those who paved the way for women like Minnesota State representative elon the countrys first refugee elected into office. We are an ambitious and determined people. The time for diplomacy is now. First woman speaker of the house. For president of the united states. Im the first somalia american Muslim Legislature in the country. We did it. She was elected last year in her home state to the minnesota house of representatives. Do you feel like you had more to prove because you were a woman . It wasnt just the woman barrier. I also had the cultural barrier of being a muslim. Omar is the first female muslim refugee legislator elected. Islam means peace but because people dont take time to understand what the faith is about. They harmful. Born in somalia in 1982. When she was eight her family fled due to the civil war. She spent four years in a refugee camp in kenya. In 1995 her family emigrated to the u. S. When youre watching whats going on now, what goes through your mind . There was a picture of a little boy who washed up on shore a while back. And i remember people were sharing this picture on social media. And i didnt want to look at this picture. Because for me, that is a real reality. Like, i was one of those kids. At 14, she fell in love with politics. When she was her granddaughters interpreter at local political meetings in minneapolis. Watching his excitement over the process, that for me, feels a great sense of wanting to chism, the first africanamerican woman elected to congress. Her mannerisms, saying if you are a person who feels like you should have a voice at that table, they dont have a chair for you, you bring a lawn chair. Sort of spoke to my heart. Why are women not running for Public Office in large numbers the way that men are . There is certain scrutiny that is placed on female leaders that is not placed on male leaders. If youre a mother, people ask how are you going to find a balance . If you are a father, nobody asks that question. And the other thing is that we think we need to have more education. We need to have more experience. We had one of the most qualified candidates in our nations history running for office. And because she was a everybody wanted to, you know, tear her down in some way. The 34yearold is a mother of three. You have young girls, what do you hope you do as far as changing the conversation about what they can become . My daughter, you know, since she was five, has kind of talked about her desire to someday be president. And she sees that there is a path that someone like her mother is able to hold Public Office. Omar also recognizes the responsibility of being a first female ippolitics. When you are the first, its really important that you are not just climbing the ladder yourself. But that you are leaving the ladder for everyone else to climb after you. She hopes her Public Service and her life inspire i think people can say she who had a life in the refugee camp as a young kid who came here only speaking two words of english. Who ran for office in a time where there was extreme hateful rhetoric. She was able to do it. Then i can do that. Omars grandfather who is no longer living said she thinks about him a lot. He introduced her to politics. She thinks hed be proud how far shes come. As a mom and a woman, this is the type of person that should run for office. How much she appreciates the institutes of democracy and having a seat at the table when it was so different in the country she grew up in. Exactly. She hit the ground running. Shes introduced a few bills and wants to make positive change. Another great story. Thank you very much. Coming up, another remarkable woman. Al will catch up with Shirley Maclaine. First this is today on nbc. Were back now with today living legends. Al caught up with a real legend, Shirley Maclaine. Ill tell you what, she is amazing. We met at her home in new mexico, and i quickly learned that for shirley, life is just one big performance. Wow. Jfk. Me and elizabeth, very, very close. Reporter tucked inside the foothills, Shirley Maclaines home is a museum of memories. The Academy Award winner and 21time golden globe nominee started her career in the the older sister to actor warren batey starred in five dozen films. I want you to be absolutely clear. Is it in your genes . Your mom was a drama teacher. You have your actor brother. You were named after shirley semi temple. It is true. What else can i end up being . Absolutely right. I believe in that kind of suggested destiny. Hadnt even thought of until you get to be my age. Im thinking a lot about those things. How did all this happen . Ive had such a wonderful life. The winner is Shirley Maclaine. The turning point, terms of endearment. Why should i be happy about being a grandmother . Steel magnolias, these are all performances that has a thread through them of strong women. Doesnt seem like i guess not. When you ask me who i am, i am basically the work ethic of a dancer. Because i started when i was 2 1 2 or 3. That begins to form an attitude in your life that never changes. Do you think that the dance and that ethic has really informed how you are as an actor . Everything i do. To me, it is a collective work experience. Dont be late. Dont be diva. Even the way i approach a script, i wait until im on the set because i dont want to leave out the other actors, the director. Oh, dear. Im afraid the war has made old women of us both. Oh, i wouldnt say that, but then i always keep out of the sun. Reporter Shirley Maclaine also known for her activism, spiritism and of this world. Do you think your spirituality has kept you as vibrant and as young . No question. Because i dont believe in death. So i guess i dont believe in old age. I mean, i sometimes have a problem understanding im in my 80s for god sake. Now you have a new movie out. The last word. The thought of leaving my obituary to chance is unreasonable to me. I am the obituary writer. I want you to write it down. Your character is very much about living in the day to day. Yeah. Do you share that . Oh, sure. When you live that much in the present and you trust that it is almost and that it is balanced, you somehow get a vision of the future thats pretty correct. Im now convinced that life is show business. I think that really . Yeah. I think shakespeare was right. Stage, strutting our stuff. Is it a comedy, drama, a mixture . Life is all of that. Im still here im jealous. Yeah. That must have been fun. Youre sitting across from her and remind yourself, this woman is 82 years old. No sign of slowing down. When i saw her, she was getting ready to drive her pickup to go do some shopping. It really is the secret, i think. She is a dancer and hasnt slowed down at all. You see all these roles. Youre like, oh, yeah, that run and that run. Shes done so many iconic roles. Her house is like a museum. It is, living museum. Cool. The last word is now playing in select theaters. Up next, snack time, people. Well reveal the ultimate munchies for any of your cravings. Yes. First, this is today on nbc. On later today . The editors at red book worked to create a list of awardwinning snacks thatll satisfy any craving. Meredith is the editor in chief. Good morning. Thanks for having me. I think of this as the oscars of snakes. It is indeed the oscars of snacks. How did you decide what the best snacks were . We called in more than 500 snacks into the office, all very painful, as you can imagine. We ate through them and narrowed it down to our 45 favorites. Then we sent them out to the panel of judges who were nutritionists, chefs, people with picky kids, and narrowed it down to 20. Well look at 12 today. It is the best, the healthiest, the best tasting. Yes. Most filling. First, salty. Talk to me. These kettle super simple sea salt chips won best classic. A plain potato chip but fantastic. Okay. What about these . These are crackers with hummus. Most filling. Not too garlicky. If you dont have time for lunch, thats what you should reach for. I have a team of grazers, having their way with knasnacks excellent. Sweet category . Oreos thins. Classic oreo with less filling. A little lighter. Theyre kind of addictive. Really good. Ill try that. Best crowd pleaser are the settle corn. A little sweet and a little salty. Back to Nature California lemon cokokies are totally natural. The most sophisticated award. It is a boxed cookie but taste fresh. Looks like theyd be good with a cup of coffee. Totally. Now the nutty department. A department were in a lot around here. So these are velveeta breakfast biscuits. They have lots of protein and cookie. It really is a cookie. But for breakfast, which is genius. I have a 9yearold who doesnt like breakfast. This, hell eat. Especially good on the go. What are these . Goodness knows dark chocolate, almond and cranberry bars. 150 calories for four squares. They taste like candy, chewy and sweet but feel good about it. Tastes like a nutter butter and i mean it in the best way. Cheesy. Harvest cheddar sun chips. Theyre whole grain. Dont feel bad about it. This from philadelphia is genius. Little bagel chips with cream cheese. Comes in different flavors. This is the most satisfying award. Here, nuts and cheese together. This is another genius idea. Sargento. Onehalf is real cheese and the other is nuts and dried fruit. Also get them with chocolate. Sorry. We have a grazer here. Grazer on the move. Doing a little shopper. The thing about these, it is like an hors doeuvre platter on the go. Whats this . These are blackberry pudding in a squeeze pack. Good for kids, id think, because they like the pouchs. Also sophisticated enough that you could have it and feel like youre having something good. Finally . This is the most unusual award. They are baked coconut chips. They are a little salty. Theyre a little bit tweet. Even for people who are not crazy about coconut, theyre not super coconuty. Theyre good. Theyre sweet though. Very sweet. Yeah. Do you have a favorite . Good crunch on the coconut. The hummus chips. The velveeta thing is good. Real nutter butter thing going on. Meredith, thank you so much. We were starving so it worked our perfectly. Good.

One of your birthday people drinks milk. Yeah. Do you still drink milk . Never. Yes. I love it. I love ice cold milk as a kid. I can remember standing, pouring a big glass of milk and my dad saying, drink water first. If youre still thirsty, have the milk. The milk is expensive and he didnt want us to drink it like water. One of my fondest memories is sitting with my grandpa. Hed take graham crackers and a big glass of milk. One one thousand, two one thousand. Still crunchy. Three one thousand and it falls apart. Ice cubes in a glass, chocolate at the bottom and pour the milk in, stir it. You know you wont get to all the chocolate and it is left there at the end. Did you ever just eat the chocolate powder . I did. Me, too. You can hear your teeth disintegrating but it tastes so good. Not good for you. A lot of sense. Theyre like, thats why we got that many fillings back there.

You going to make us laugh or else. Its wednesday morning, march 15th, the ides of march. Were listening to my way. Im al along with jenna and our guest host justin long. You dontha begrudgingly, its part of my job. Weve had fun with you already in the makeup room. You had us laughing. We should have been filming that. Couldnt play any of it. Now im going to be nervous and stiff ask weird. Its been so fun. We said youre going to make us laugh. No shortage of laugh. Whats the quota . Anything that gets more than two. Were not there. No, you finished a play about Albert Einstein . It was written by steve martin, he was a hero of mine. It was a big thrill. No pressure there. I begged them not to tell me when he was coming. A lot of people knew when he was coming. I didnt know. What was it . It was about kind of like an episode of cheers set in 1904. Picasso and einstein were characters. I like it. I like the mustache. Yeah. They would put me under this hair thing. Theyd curl my hair. Its not a bit that im reading my own program. Is that a real mustache . What do you mean . If that was fake, whoever made that should be fired. Should not make fake mustaches. You didnt necessarily love that mustache . Its not the most its if you get close on the mustache from afar its okay. The closer you get you see patches. Its bizarre and some pieces would curl into my mouth. We have a photo of you shaving it off. Part of me kind of liked the mustache. Part of you didnt. So i decided to keep some of i kept saying good bye to people. It was a fun reaction. Youre pretty busy. Youre in a movie called lavender. Tell us about that. Heres a little of it. There i am in glasses. Do you play a psychiatrist . I play a psychiatrist and i just creepy sort of ghost movie thriller. Shot in toronto. One of my favorite cities. There i am still with glasses. Im not sure whats happening, its been a while since i seen it. In theaters now. Get to it. Get to it. My favorite justin long role, when i first was aware of you, dodge ball. Sure. I loved dodge ball. Thank you, al. I loved that movie myself. And i went to the knicks game last night and they played me getting hit over and over getting hit with balls. As my buddy who came with me to the game. He said youve got a lot of mileage after getting hit with balls. Youve parlayed that to you get free tickets to the knicks. The day we shot that scene i kept trying to get them hit my head the comedy zones or you know, the zone. The nethers. And so just shamelessly, throwing myself it was coming pretty fast. They didnt want me to drive home at the end of the day because i was a little off. Oh. Slightly concussed. Next time you watch that, know that youre laughing at my pain. Its worth it. Cant have kids anymore. Too many. Too many nethers. Did you enjoy the snow day . I had just flown in from san diego. I didnt get a i wanted a taste of the winter. But thiss you can eat buffet at once. Shoved into my face. It was a lot. But beautiful. A little too much. Too much of winter. You think you had too much of winter. Take a look at the owner of this house in webster in upstate new york. Its a remote beach house, 25 feet from the shore of lake ontario. The spray turned his house into this ice sculpture. He doesnt have a retaining wall. Thats where you should build wall. Sometimes you do want to build walls. Absolutely. Look at that. Thats crazy. Now, its strange it was just his house. The other folks had built retaining walls. Again, a good use. A good use for the wall. How do you think that man is going to defrost that house, al . I think basically theres nothing you can do but let nature take its course. You cant even get in it to do anything. I was he inside is he frozen in . He starved to death, actually. Thats the sad part of the story. All he has in his house is ice cream. Skeletons. Im excited for the next topic. Were going to quiz justin. Its a game we want to call the long and the short of it. As you should. Justin actually sent us this game. I didnt yeah, i love playing this game with my friends. Thats right. Lets play a game about me. Okay, we found some interesting facts about you. Thats surprising. Online. We think theyre all true. Thats what weve been told. The first one, during your senior year at high school you were named the most likely not to be seen in class. True or false . You have to tell us. You all play at home, too. Yall play at home, too. People are supposed to be entertained they want to know a little bit about yo true or false . True. Most likely not to be seen in class . I wasnt crazy about school. Kids, you should stay in school. And dont turn into me. I also get hit with balls in the crotch for a living. Again. This is what happens. It worked out okay. Im taking shots to the nuts for a living. I went with nethers but thats okay. Its all right. Tentacles i should say. I dont think were supposed to say any of that. Fake being sick in school. You started doing voiceover work out of school, one of your biggest talents was doing a slacker guy. I dont know if it was a talent. But it was a popular voice. This is late 90s, a lot of like, whats up bro, a lot of that guy. Do the due i know that voice. Bevis and butthead. Everyone remembers you from the apple commercials. Im being weirdly controversial. I get hostile around 9 15. If this is, in seven minutes youll be on the floor. They skipped ahead. I think theyve had enough of the long and the short of it. Is that enough . I told you it wouldnt be a good game. I had fun. I would like to say hello to my mom and grandma. My grandma is in lake worth, florida. Guess how old she is . 100 years old. We got to get her on a smuckers jar. I dont know what that means, but lets do it. Ill volunteer here for everything.

I dontno josh, by the way, it is g gast gaston. Not as embarrassing as what justin did in the middle of the intro. That made my day. Wait a second. Im supposed to read on live tv . Oh, thats me . I thought it was long. It was too descriptor. Why am i here . Gaston. Listen, okay, i watched this last night. I was going to watch it with my 4yearold. She went to bed and i was like, let a sleeping baby lie. It is so good. For people of all ages. It is so smart. So funny. It is so fresh. It really is.
