  • President Carter: The 60 Minutes Interviews

    President Carter: The 60 Minutes Interviews
    Dec 30 2024
    President Jimmy Carter, who died on December 29th at the age of 100, sat down with 60 Minutes three times during his long life: once while in office; once soon after losing his re-election bid; and once in his golden years. In all of the interviews, he was candid -- sometimes even a bit bitter -- about his political adversaries, his personal values, and his public perception. The conversations chronicle not just a man's life, but his legacy, as it was molded and remolded over the course of three decades.

  • Roy Cohn is Not an Enigma

    Roy Cohn is Not an Enigma
    Dec 3 2024
    When Donald Trump delivered a birthday toast to power lawyer Roy Cohn, back in 1986, 60 Minutes was there to record the future president's tribute to Cohn's loyalty. Much has been written about Cohn's influence on the young Trump and by listening through 60 Minutes' two interviews with Cohn, you can hear why the notorious lawyer is the subject of so much fascination. In never-before-broadcast conversations with Mike Wallace and Morley Safer, Cohn explains his fighter mentality and obsession with winning at all costs -- from his earliest days working alongside Senator Joseph McCarthy to his final months spent denying he was dying of AIDS.

  • A Second Look at Book Banning

    A Second Look at Book Banning
    Nov 26 2024
    When Morley Safer traveled to West Virginia in 1975 to report on a fight over books in schools, he couldn't have known how that conflict would help lay the blueprint for many contemporary challenges over what students are allowed to read. In our first "second look," we revisit a battle that informs our current day culture wars by talking to the people who bore witness fifty years ago. Plus, insights from a 60 Minutes producer on his latest reporting on book banning in 2024. This episode originally aired on September 17, 2024.

    The Gladiator of Acting: Denzel Washington
    Nov 19 2024

As he prepares to star in one of the most anticipated films of the year, Gladiator II, we look back at his journey from stage actor to blockbuster star, director and producer.

  • The Forgotten Queen of Romance Novels feat. Casey McQuiston

    The Forgotten Queen of Romance Novels feat. Casey McQuiston
    Nov 12 2024
    In 2024, romance – a genre once relegated to the back corners of bookstores – might just be saving the publishing industry. But while more and more readers are looking for love between their covers, few are reaching for titles by one of the first giants of the genre, Dame Barbara Cartland, author of over 600 romances, colloquially known as the “Queen of Romance,” and a favorite writer of Princess Diana. While her work has fallen out of fashion, Cartland's legacy can tell us a lot about the romance genre's contemporary dominance. Best-selling author Casey McQuiston, along with Cartland’s granddaughter Tara Parker, join Seth Doane to discuss her impact on the world.

  • Who Owns History?

    Who Owns History?
    Oct 29 2024
    In 2023, Anderson Cooper reported that a large number of antiquities in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection had come to the world-class museum by way of theft. Ancient art had been looted from Cambodian temples fifty years ago and the Cambodian Government wanted them back. But as Cooper discovered, returning the stolen goods was no simple matter – a lesson that another 60 Minutes correspondent had learned two decades prior. In 2002, Ed Bradley traveled to Greece and England to cover a dispute that is hundreds of years old – whether the British Museum should return a collection of marble statues removed from the Parthenon back to Athens. This episode of 60 Minutes: A Second Look will examine why, more than 20 years later, that dispute remains deadlocked, and whether efforts like those by the Cambodian activists that Cooper profiled are changing the way we think about museums and the ownership of ancient art.

  • The Big Gamble: Sports Betting

    The Big Gamble: Sports Betting
    Oct 22 2024
    One of the biggest stories in sports may be happening off the field – and on betting apps. As 60 Minutes correspondent Jon Wertheim reported earlier this year, what was once done in the shadows is now as much a part of the spectator experience as hot dogs and foam fingers. Placing wagers on everything from point spreads to the color of gatorade bottles is now fully legal in most states. But the popularization of sports betting has brought a new wave of concern over gambling addiction – a condition that 60 Minutes has been covering since before it was officially recognized by the DSM. As we grapple with this new normal, we remember a series of stories from the from the 1970s and 80s – when Dan Rather and Harry Reasoner met an extreme compulsive gambler named Irving North whose addiction was destroying his family. We meet his son Larry today as he relives his experience with his father and their time with 60 Minutes. And Wertheim joins us to consider what the past might say about the future.

    The Original Silicon Valley Boys
    Oct 15 2024
    Before Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, there was Adam Osborne and Jerry Sanders. You may not be familiar with their names, but the brash business leaders of Silicon Valley of the early 1980s understood that technology had the capacity to change all of our lives. In this episode, we explore what they got right, what they got wrong, and how lessons learned from early Silicon Valley might help us learn how to navigate the advent of artificial intelligence.
