How about this epic battle coming up with the wilams sisters . Cant wait for that. Back in action and i love what venus said about serena. Tough talk about her opponent but then she said shes super awesome soant wait for that. A big week for the president too here and another busy day overnight. Headlines coming in right now. President trump took his first flight on air force one and gave the press a rare look inside the oval office in the sky. Beautiful, great plane. Really beautiful. This is a very special plane for a lot of reasons. Outside of just being a plane. As we said its been a busy first full week for the president and this morning a kremlin spokesman confirms that President Trump and president putin will speak tomorrow. And there is a question about a phone call the president made to the National Park service after the inauguration. But lets start with cecilia vega on the escalating war of words with mexico. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter yeah, robin, good morning to you. This is, of course, all about that wall and who pays for it, the u. S. And mexico, one of our most important allies and trading partners at a standoff this morning but as one foreign leader cancels a visit to the white house today, another one is headed here. Despite a potential diplomat disaster with americas neighb to the south, President Trump overnight offering strong words about his plans to build that wall. Im talking about a real wall. Im talking about a wall thats got to be like serious and even that, of course, youll have people violated but well have people waiting for them when they do. Reporter in an interview with fox news the president not backing down. Look, the wall is necessary. Thats not just politics. And yet it is good for the heart of the nation in a certain way because people want protection and a wall protects. Reporter but this morning the white house seems to be uncertain over ideas about how to pay for that wall. Press Secretary Sean Spicer first telling reporters aboard air force one the president is considering a hefty 20 tax on goods imported from mexico, part of a proposed tax overhaul. We can do 10 billion a year through that mechanism alone. Reporter republicans and democrats outraged fearing the cost pay be passed on to American Consumers and Lindsey Graham tweeting any policy proposal which drives up costs of corona, tequila, or margaritas is a big time bad idea. Mucho sad. The white house forced to clarify saying it was just one way the wall could be paid for. Ive said many times that the American People will not pay for the wall. And ive made that clear to the government of mexico. Reporter mexicos president , not happy. He abruptly backed out of next weeks visit to the u. S. Trump telling republican lawmakers in philadelphia the cancellation was mutual. Unless mexico is going to treat the United States fairly with respect, such a meeting would be fruitless. Reporter but mexicos president took to twitter saying he canceled the meeting. And uk Prime Minister theresa may headed here today. This is, of course, President Trumps first meeting with a foreign leader since he took office and some of his comments on torture and America First are putting may in a very difficult position, robin. All eyes on that press conference here at the white house in just a few hours. And we will, of course, carry it here on abc live and theres also been a lot of talk about the socalled sanctuary cities and appears the mayor in miami will follow through with what the white house wants. Reporter this is a response to the president s plan to gut funding for sanctuary cities ordering county jails to comply with immigration requests and that would gut that citys sanctuary city program. The presiden calling this, all right, cecilia, thank you. Well, robin, its been exactly one week since President Trump took office and lets bring in jonathan karl. We learned about a phone call between President Trump and the head of the National Parks service. Talking about the inaugural crowd. Reporters were summoned into the Briefing Room and told this was the largest audience to witness an inauguration, period. I am curious about the first full day here at the white house. Choosing to send the press secretary out into the Briefing Room summoning reporters to talk about the inaugural crowd size, does that send a message to the American People that thats more important than some of the very pressing issues . Part of my whole victory was that the men and women of this country who have been forgotten will never be forgotten again. Part of that is when they try and demean me unfairly because we had a massive crowd of people. We had a crowd i looked over that sea of people and i said to myself, wow. And, jon, now weve learned of a phone call between the president and that acting director at the National Park service. Reporter on saturday morning, david, i mean, just hours after he is sworn in as president of the United States hes on the phone with the park service about those photographs and about the crowd size looking for evidence that the crowd was bigger. I mean its amazing. He probably hadnt even unpacked his bags yet, remember, he was up late the night before at the balls, of course, his inauguration speech and this is what hes talking about, but, you know, its not surprising at all. Donald trump has been fascinated by his crowds from the start. He has drawn some of the biggest crowds we have ever seen as a president ial candidate. As a matter of fact if theres one thing nobody should ever doubt its trumps ability to draw a crowd. But its clearly something he draws energy from and something of an obsession here. Let me ask you about steve bannon, President Trumps chief strategist adviser in the white house. He talked yesterday pretty angry. Reporter yes, no doubt talking to the new york times, talking about the press as if as an opposition party, not the democrats, its the press that is our opposition. Suggesting that the press should keep their mouth shut. Fascinating because the Trump White House has been very open so far in the first week giving a lot of access actually more access than i saw in the Obama Administration to the White House Press corps. Thanks, j lets bring in terry moran who joins us from london and we know about the Prime Minister the british Prime Minister going to talk to donald trump meeting with him, the first time a foreign leader will be there p think . Reporter well, the whole world will be watching that meeting, robin. It is President Trumps diplomatic debut and World Leaders looking for clues about how to deal with a guy they dont know or understand and we expect Prime Minister theresa may to remind President Trump of that close history that the u. S. And Great Britain share. Shes also looking for a trade deal after british voters chose to leave the european union, but shes also under tremendous pressure to stand up to President Trump on the issue of torture and some of the rest of his agenda and she will be speaking for many people throughout americas traditional allies when she does that. Terry, the kremlin has confirmed that president putin will be talking to President Trump on the phone on saturday. What do you make of that . Reporter well, this is the first phone call and it is a big one. The kremlin is confirming that itll happen tomorrow. They say president putin wants to congratulate President Trump on his inauguration. Theyll discuss a whole range of issues, president putin wants the end to the sanctions slapped on russia after russia seize crimea and President Trump says he wants help in fighting isis and islamic extremism and reducing nuclear weapons. They have a lot to talk about and this will be apparently the first time they spoke. Fascinating to watch them, the two of them side by side. That march for life, a live look at the stage set in washington, d. C. Where speakers will gather to protest abortion, Vice President mike pence is expected to address the rally today and abcs mary bruce is live at the National Mall with more for us. Hey, mary. Reporter good morning. In just a few hours this whole area will be flooded with demonstrators and this year they feel they really have something to celebrate, now that donald trump is in office their wish list could become a reality. Theyre calling on him to appoint an antiabortion Supreme Court justice and want to ban federal funding for many abortions and in a sign of just how powerful this movement is that headliner here this morning, Vice President mike pence. David. Windy d. C. Behind you, we can see, mary, but a lot of focus on this march because as you know we asked the president about the other march, the womens march the day after he was sworn in and we wondered if he he has a sense of responsibility for trying to unite the country. Could you hear them . No, i couldnt hear them but the crowds were large but youre going to have a large crowd on friday too which is mostly prolife people. Youre going to have a lot of people coming friday and i will say this and i didnt realize this but i was told you will have a very large crowd of people. I dont know, as large or larger. Some people say it will be larger prolife people and they say the press doesnt cover them. I dont want to compare crowd sizes again. No, you shouldnt but let me tell you they do say that the press doesnt cover them. We saw the marches around the country and you are their president now. Do you sense the responsibility to reach out now and to unite them and for those women, men, children who marched who are watching this what would you say to them. Well, i do but i have to also say we just had an election a few weeks ago. And they voted in many cases and in some cases they didnt vote, i imagine. And we did have an election. With that being said, absolutely i have responsibity to everybody including people that didnt vote for donald trump. Totally. A responsibility to everybody but you heard the president there say, mary, this crowd could be as large or even larger talking about the crowd size. Yeah, the president clearly hoping for a big turnout here today. He has high hopes for this march. But, david, these demonstrators have high hopes for him and want him to follow through and that is a message they will be making loud and clear this morning. Mary, thanks so much and to the whole team. Well carry that News Conference live today, President Trump and the Prime Minister of britain. The press conference right here on abc. Well see you for that. Michael. All right and now to that health alert about mumps outbreaks across the country, at least 90 cases in one Washington City and the cdc says almost half the cases this year are in the state of arkansas alone so dr. Besser is here to talk about it. Dr. Besser, theres a vaccine against mumps so, you know, why are these outbreaks happening . Its a great question. If you get two doses of the vaccine it protects about 88 of people. Its not 100 effective. One dose only 78 so over time, theres a group of people that builds up who are at risk of this vaccine and you tend to see these outbreaks in crowded places, schools, places where people are living closely and can share viruses. You know, the number of cases that have gone fivefold between 2015 and 016 but why is that as well. Yeah, in 2016 there were more than 5,000 case, 2015, about a thousand cases. You look at some of these other years, the chart, in the hundreds so people are wondering. There is a number of theories, one is that the virus may be changing. So that maybe the vaccine isnt as good as a match. The other, as people get older their immunity goes down and a third, maybe doctors arent storing the vaccine properly. It has to be kept cold before you give it. If they dont it could be less effective but they havent sorted that out. Remind us why should we worry about the mumps. For most people its an annoyance, its fever, its body aches, its swelling of your jaw. If you get it when youre older youre at risk of getting meningitis or encephalitis, the swelling of the brain, some deafness, could cause inflammation of the testes or ovaries. You want to reduce your risk as much as you can. Thanks for those symptoms. That midair emergency overnight, a plane from washington, d. C. Forced to make an Emergency Landing in nashville after a fire broke out in one of the engines. Right to david kerley at Reagan National airport for us. Good morning, david. Reporter good morning, robin. Some tense moments on that flight into nashville. The crew declaring an Emergency Landing as theyre approaching because in flight, they got a warning of a fire in one of their engines. We are declaring an emergency. We have a right engine fire. Be advised we do have a fire warning and the fire is still out. We were not able to extinguish it. The flight attendantsn ot o the horn and sai hwere going to emergency land. Head down, grab your ankles. Head down kept repeating it. Reporter as soon as the jet landed the doors were open and stairs brought up and the passengers were able to evacuate and firefighters went to that engine. They sprayed on water and foam. They say there were no flames but they called it a hot spot in the engine. Nobody was injured and Mesa Airlines which operated this United Express flight says it took that jet out of service. Theyre going to check the engine, of course, robin. Of course and as you said thankfully no one was injured. Thanks so much. There were frightening moments for people staying at a Popular Hotel in tampa, florida. Flaming pouring from the roof of the Marriott Hotel downtown forcing hundreds to evacuate and investigators say debris from construction work likely sparked that fire. No injuries reported. Crews were able to stop the fire from spreading to the inside of the building. And now to the sister showdown. Lets do it. Sisters are doing it for themselves. Venus and Serena Williams are hours away from facing off for the Australian Open title match and paula faris is here with a closer look at whats on the line. Good morning, paula. Good morning. I heard you said lets do this. Thats right. This was the first time the williams sisters would go headtohead. Also at the aussie open back in 1998. Look how young they were. Venus 17, serena just 16. Big sister won that day. Telling serena afterwards, quote, im sorry i had to take you out. Venus williams aced her way into tennis history. 11 aces now. Reporter defeating Coco Vandeweghe in a grueling threeset battle. To become the oldest Australian Open finalist of all time. No need to contain the joy, venus. She cant believe it. The only one who can steal her thunder down under is her little sister, serena, who at age 35 cruised her way to the finals with a series of straightset victories. Shes my toughest opponent. No one has ever beaten me as much as venus has. Shes basically my world and my life. Reporter venus has been the comeback kid after being diagnosed with a careerthreatening auto immune illness six years ago now ranked 17th in the world. Everybody has their moment in the sun. Maybe mine has gone on a while but id like to keep that going. I got nothing i got nothing else to do so reporter the sisters first went headtohead at the australian 19 years ago, venus won that match but since then serena has a 1611 alltime advantage. The last time they took each other on in a grand slam final it was wimbledon in 2009. It is hers. Reporter if serena wins it will be her 23rd grand slam singles title, the most of any woman in the open era but can she pull out another victory over the sister she loves so much . I just feel like no matter what happens weve won because a williams is going to win this tournament. Reporter she is the oldest to compete at the aussie open final and has no plans of riding off into the sun set. At least not yet. She has her eyes set on playing in the 2020 olympics in tokyo and would be almost 40 years old. Why not. Why not. Yeah, exactly. So old. We know what venus is going to do. What is serenas next move . Serena has a little bling on her finger. She announced her engagement to reddit cofounder Alexis Ohanian back in december and she said she was going to put off planning her wedding until after the Australian Open. And i love her ability to compartmentalize. How many brides are able to do that . Right into wedding planner but hes been so devoted right there in the stands cheering her on the whole time. Both venus and serena are in a really good place. You can really tell that. They are and venus gives kudos to her younger sister saying she has better taste in men. Shes able to do that.

Now with taxes and fees included. Get 4 lines of unlimited lte data for 40 bucks each. All unlimited. All in switch to tmobile today. Back now with a new twist in the murder mystery. A tv producer killed while vacationing in belize. More than one person may be involved. Linzie janis has the details. Reporter the fbi is assisting police in belize and for the fit me agents say they are looking for multiple suspects in the murder of our abc colleague anne swaney. They are also hoping a cash reward will help them help lead them to her killers. This morning, the fbi asking for help, saying it now believes more than one person may be behind the mysterious murder of 39yearold anne swaney, killed while she was vacationing at this tropical retreat in belize. We believe that people, the public may have information about the suspect or suspects that committed this. Reporter swaney, an executive producer at our abc station in chicago, was found strangled to death floating in this river downstream from the recreation platform where she was last seen. But one year later and police in the Central American country are still trying to solve the brutal crime. Belize police say on the morning swaney was murdered she volunteered to stay behind from a horseback riding excursion because there werent enough horses for everyone. When the group later returned, they reportedly found her yoga mat and other belongings on the waterfront deck but saw no sign of her. At about 3 00 we realized she wasnt around and thats when we were alerted that her things were down at the yoga platform. Reporter this week the fbi which is helping with the investigation announcing a 10,000 reward, hoping to convince locals to come forward with information. Swaneys friends and family say they are desperate for a break in the case. I want to know specifically why she didnt end up going on that horse ride. Why were they a horse short . We feel like it had to have been someone, we believe, someone there that knew her. Reporter friends and family say swaney loved Adventure Travel and felt safe going to belize because she had been there before. The fbi says they do have a few leads but think with the publics help they can finally solve this case. Robin. As you know, we hope that will be the case. Abc news consultant and former fbi special agent brad garrett joins us now and, brad, its been more than a year since this brutal killing. Theyre putting out the new information now. Can you explain why . Two reasons, robin. One is i think theyre looking for additional leads, and i believe they have some leads theyve developed and so theyre looking for people to come forward to hopefully maybe better identify individuals of interest. And how does the fbi work with the belize authorities . You know, its a very informal relationship. The fbi have no authority in belize, but offering a reward, traveling, i think theyll going to guatemala to reinterview a guy in belize at the time and just offering informal investigative suggestions, because, you know, its a challenge for a country like belize to work on a case that maybe is somewhat complicated. Tell us a little more about traveling to belize. What should people be aware of . Well, belize has a fairly high homicide rate per capa. Drugs are an issue there. But historically, robin, around the resorts where she was ultimately killed and others, crime is relatively low. All right, brad, thank you very much. As always we are thinking of anne and her many fans, friends and, of course, her family. Thank you, brad. Michael. Coming up on our big board, Oprah Winfreys big announcement.

Besser are here at the table and we want to start with oprah food mogul, the billionaire has announced plans to launch a new line of Food Products in a joint venture with mac and cheese and ketchup giant kraft heinz. Dr. Besser, mara, great to have you. Mara, lets start with you. Any time oprah puts her stamp on something peoples antennas go up. Shes getting into the food business and see if she can bring her magic to Grocery Stores partnering with kraft heinz to release a line of ready to eat refrigerated products. Theyre calling it mealtime story, really cute name and has a social component as well and they will donate 10 of profits to charities that help stop hunger and release more details throughout the year. We dont know very much right now. They said it is all part of their mission to make healthy food available to more people. Which is great. Everybody has been following oprahs transition and weight loss but also this these two huge brands who are merging here. What kind of impact could have on them . Oprah is associated with weight loss because of her partnership with Weight Watchers and lost more than 40 pounds. She is known for the oprah effect. When she partnered with Weight Watchers their stocks more than 300 . Weve known the oprah effect over the years with her favorite things, her books but the flip side of that is people expect a lot from her. The bar is really high so has to be quality, healthy because now thats her mission and delicious because its oprah. Oprah cant make nondelicious food . Im expecting it to tell me a story.

I think we all know where youre going to yeah, on this i have to take a wait and see because what i tell people in terms of Healthy Eating is move away from processed foods. Eat real foods. Shop the perimeterf thstore with fresh fruits and vegetables and lean protein and fish. The problem with processed food a lot of the grains are very refined and gives you a big sugar boost and a lot of added salt, not much fiber and added sugar, so if you go processed food you have to read that label carefully. You know, oprah is all about health so ill be looking to see does she come out with a healthy line on the medical side we can stab behind. They Just Announced it so we have to keep our eye open. Theyll put out more details. Everybody eager. Im eagle ser taste it. Lets go. Bring the food out. Chow. Now over to the next subject and that is take a look at this image. See the baby in the box. Oh, the baby. Yes, could every new parent in the country soon have one of these boxes . Its called very simply the baby box.

Sids is a big issue, 3500 babies die from it every year and a lot could be prevented if you do the right thing. This is a baby box. Take a look. It has a lot of things in there. And a baby. And a baby. Cardboard, though. Its cardboard but, you know, it comes with sids prevention. It has all the things you need to know about. A Firm Mattress with a tight fitted sheet. The things that are in here are things that help with sids prevention. In order to get one of these boxes, you have to take a 15minute online course that talks to you about the things you need to do. One is you want your baby to be put down in bed on their back every time. Poor baby. Im sorry, baby, in a setting where the mattress is tight. Where theres no bumpers, no stuffed animals. Oh, sorry. Sorry about that. Thats a doll. Its got information there about breastfeeding which cuts your rate of sids by 50 . Information on stopping smoking which reduces your rate. It has a pacifier, giving your baby a pacifier reduces risk. It makes it so that every family portable. Can put it next to your bed so theyre next to you. I love this idea. Apologies baby annabelle. I didnt mean to roll you over like that. Baby annabelle is doing fine. This took off and was a huge success in finland. Do you see that translating here in the u. S. .

But i think as a new parent you tend to get overwhelmed with products and i remember my doctor saying all you need is a blanket and a boob.

President trump meeting with british Prime Minister theresa may at the white house today. Everything from trade to torture is up for discussion. Meantime, there are growing questions about a white house proposal to charge a tax on imports to pay for that border wall. Abcs cecilia vega is watching all the developments from the white house for us this morning. Hi, cecilia. Reporter paula, good morning to you. That meeting between theresa may and President Trump takes place at the white house in just a few hours. And she isnder pressure to confro him about his beliefs on torture. Overnight the president told fox news he does not believe waterboarding is torture. He said it absolutely works to combat terrorism even though he has said that he will defer to his defense secretary and cia director, and they oppose it. Another policy problem brewing for the white house this morning, a proposal to levy a hefty 20 tax on imports. This is to, of course, pay for that border wall after democrats and republicans alike expressed outrage fearing that extra cost might be passed on to American Consumers, raising the price on everything from cars to corona. The white house walked back that plan saying it is just one option being considered and that wall now at the center of a standoff between the u. S. And mexico. Mexicos president abruptly canceling a planned visit to the white house that was scheduled for next week. Paula. No shortage of story lines. Cecilia, thank you. And we do have new details emerging about President Trumps efforts to disprove media reports about crowd size at his inauguration. According to the washington post, the president personally called the director of the National Parks service to request different pictures of the National Mall. And Vice President mike pence is set to make history on the National Mall today. He will become the first Vice President to speak in person at the march for life. Its an annual rally marking the anniversary of roe v. Wade. Kellyanne conway is also scheduled to speak.

Yeah, at the end of the day its all about their kids. Good morning, lara. Brad and angelinas split has been making headlines since september with their kids caught right in the middle, but this morning People Magazine reporting brad is finally getting to spend more time with his children. This morning, new details on the split of hollywood power couple brad pitt and Angelina Jolie. A source close to pitt revealing to People Magazine what life is like for the actor now saying he seems to have a more positive outlook, adding, things seem much better now. Thingare looking up for him. Hes stepping out more. Hes getting to see his kids more, and i think hes in a much more positive space. Reporter this coming just two weeks after the duo put their differences aside agreeing to work out their divorce with a private judge for the sake of the children releasing a joint statement saying they are committed to act as a united front to effectuate recovery and reunification. Custody is still being worked out, but our sources are saying brad is very open to working with angelina. Reporter the allied star slowly stepping back into the spotlight. Just yesterday seen running errands in santa monica. Even making a surprise appearance at the Golden Globes earlier this month. This is moonlight. Reporter the couple formerly known as brangelina split in september after two years of marriage and a total of 12 years together. Angelina filed for divorce shortly after an alleged incident on a private flight involving one of their children which led to a child abuse investigation by the fbi and the l. A. County department of children and family services. Both investigations were closed and no charges were filed. Yeah, hes experiencing a lot of relief that those investigations are closed, but pitt initially agreed to weekly supervised visits with the couples children but since the duo decided to keep their battle private, it now looks like both sides cooling down for the sake of their kids.

Heres a look at my seven day forecast. 62 to 68 monday. All right. Ay. All right. Now to that hot button issue. If you dont mind, ill kick off my shoes for this one. High heels in the workplace. A woman was sent home do not get my toe in that. I do not have a pedicure. Sent home for pay for not aring high heels. She decided to fight back and got a country behind her changing a dress code she felt was discriminatory. Rebecca jarvis has that story for us. You know what i want. Reporter from olivia pope to Claire Underwood to the devil wears prada. Thats all. Reporter theyre the must have accessory for powerful women. A pair of high heels. But now one woman is taking a stand in her flats. I turn up as i normally would in a black suit and smart, flat black shoes. Reporter Nicola Thorpe was sent home from her job at a Global Accounting Firm without pay because she showed up in shoes without a minimum twoinch heel. I was there for all of about ten minutes, pointed to a male colleague and said, well, hes wearing flat shoes. Reporter outraged she left and got to work by starting a petition. Six months later she was calling on lawmakers to Keep Companies from demanding women wear heels at work. Professional women sounding off on twitter defiantly posting pictures in flats. That petition gaining more than 150,000 signatures. Now lawmakers in britain saying the company who fired nicola broke the law. I had the choice of either will i get paid for a days work, you know, let go of my principles or stick to it, and im really glad now that i did. Rebecca and cindi leive, the editor in chief of glamour magazine, they join us now. Give a big welcome to Good Morning America here. Rebecca, thank you so much for that. All right, that happened in the uk. What about here . Can employers do this . Well, legally you might want to explain the legal implications, but fundamentally what they decided in england was that, no, they cannot. But there are some nuances to that that are worth knowing. Its kind of surprising, i think, that employers can enforce dress codes, and they can ask women to wear heels, but men have to be asked in the same environment to adhere to the same strict dress code, so, for example, in a place where women have twe heelsmaybe men have to groom their beard, have to wear suits. Employers have talked about this. There have been suits in the united stes and ultimately it comes down in favor of the employer as long as both genders are treated equally. There seems to be a little bit of a gray area when it comes to the dress code. I mean its very legitimate to say, for instance, no one can wear a tank top or no one can wear flipflops because thats gender neutral. Whats not fair and what women objected to in the first place that, men, you can come in fundamentally in anything you want but, women, you have to have a particular heel height. The woman was working a ninehour shift on her feet for a lot of the day. Im wearing flats in solidarity with her today and tell me that im not going to be able to do my job, of course, i can be just as professional in flats as i can in a fourinch heel. [ applause ] thats so true. What is it what is it about women, high heels, and i have to say this, when i first started working here at Good Morning America coming from espn from the sports world, i would wear flats. And my bosses didnt give me pressure. Women watching were they were like why arent you wearing heels. Because they felt it looked more professional . Right. I do think a little bit of that is going away. Certainly youre completely right. There has been this idea, that if you wanted to dress professionally as a woman in the workplace you had to wear a heel. Yes, women do dresfor otr women. But what i see with young women is that theyre saying, listen, this is about my personal style. Maybe im a heel lover. Maybe im not but what i put on my body reflects who i am and what im comfortable with and i want to be able to express that when im at work. You know this, rebecca. By the way, i love your podcast. I love the podcast youre doing. Thank you so much. I appreciate that, robin. Dynamic. You speak to that too, rebecca, a little bit. Well, so much of our work life now is our everything life so what we reflect at work is a reflection of who we are as people. But one of the things i would say to women and to men in the workplace is if you admire your boss, dress like your boss, try and think about what the things are that are happening in your workplace. I worked in retail for many years in heels. I know how hard that can be too. Yeah. Hey, rebecca, cindi, thank you very much. Thank you. Ricky gervais is coming up.

Maybe once a week at one point but what their reason why, that is whats interesting. We listed some of the most outrageous excuses for being late to work. And an incredible example was i was cornered by a moose. I tried that. It didnt work . I assume this was canada and not london or . Exactly. How about this one, my motherinlaw wouldnt stop talking . I dont know how that makes sense. I like that one. I like that itworks. Yeah, yeah, sure, ay. Yeah. Check. Of course, you play in the uk version of the office, play the boss.

Come here, bear. Ah. Come here, bear. One thing about him youre a big animal advocate. Im not leaving until we get a phone call this guy adopted. He was chained up for 15 years. Thats why i had to talk about him today. His story was so remarkable. If you havent seen his instagram you have a cat named ollie. Ollie. Bear is scared of cats so he is so loving. Hes had no life and give him two years bucket list. Give him love. Thats right. Hes not leaving here until bear gets a home. Hell be alone but [ laughter ] its friday, after all. Ricky, what is it about you and animals . What can it about you and animals . Ive always loved animals. Never understood animal cutety. Every animal is unconditionally beautiful. They have a right to be here as much as us, more than us. I dont understand why any cruelty happens. Let alone this thing is mans best friend. They love us. No matter what. Innocent.
