Thursday’s “GMA3: What You Need to Know” takes a turn towards self-improvement and winter wellness. Author Michael Chad Hoeppner will be present to discuss his book, “Don’t Say Um,” which presumably tackles the art of public speaking and banishing verbal fillers. Will Hoeppner himself manage to avoid uttering the dreaded “um” during his appearance? It’s a low-stakes gamble, but one worth watching for.
In a slightly different vein, ABC News correspondent James Longman will be previewing his forthcoming book, “The Inherited Mind.” The book explores the science of human behavior and how our actions are shaped by genetic predispositions. Will Longman be able to distill complex scientific concepts into digestible daytime fare? It’s a tall order, but perhaps he’ll surprise us.
Finally, for viewers seeking practical advice for surviving the winter months, Byrdie’s Star Donaldson will be sharing winter skincare tips. While such segments often feel like thinly veiled product placements, Donaldson might offer genuinely helpful advice.
“GMA3: What You Need to Know” airs Thursday, January 9, 2025, at 1:00 PM EST on ABC.
