GUPTA: And we are back with HOUSECALL. Now as any new parent

knows, the excitement of having a new baby is tempered with concerns

about being a good parent. I talked with box office sensation

McConaughey about becoming a new dad, his new title. We talked about

things like diet, whether he has concerns about vaccines, and the

advice that he's going to pass on to his son from his late father.
