CBS Mornings Key Art

CBS Mornings goes global this Wednesday, bringing viewers live coverage of the papal conclave from Vatican City and Rome. Join Gayle King, Tony Dokoupil, and Nate Burleson – or rather, Tony Dokoupil in Vatican City and Norah O’Donnell in Rome – from 7:00-9:00 AM ET on CBS for a front-row seat to history in the making.

Alongside the serious news from the Vatican, CBS Mornings still finds time for some levity. Paige DeSorbo and Hannah Berner, hosts of the “Giggly Squad” podcast, will chat about their new book, How to Giggle: A Guide to Taking Life Less Seriously. Because even during historic events, everyone needs a good laugh. Also that day Anthony Mason will take a look at the work of American painter Jacob Lawrence, learning his unique way of expressing himself through painting.
