From now on, it is "cranberry juice and sparkling water" that it carburizes.
"Today, Brad sees his children and talks with Angie as many times as she wants," reported a relative of the comedian, still at Us Weekly. It requires absolutely nothing. He's just trying to do anything to rebuild his bond with Angie and the kids. "
