CBS Saturday Mornings is gearing up for a power-packed January 4 edition, offering a blend of music, culinary delights, and insightful conversation. So, if your New Year’s resolution involves expanding your cultural horizons (or just recovering from the festivities), this might be the ideal way to ease into the weekend.

First up, Scottish rock band Franz Ferdinand will grace the “CBS Mornings” stage for a “Saturday Sessions” performance. Known for their energetic post-punk revival sound and hits like “Take Me Out,” the band is sure to inject some life into your Saturday morning. While their latest album might not have set the charts ablaze, their live performances remain a potent reminder of their enduring appeal.

Next, “The Dish” segment welcomes AJ Capella, executive chef of the acclaimed Summit House restaurant. Capella’s culinary creations are known for their focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients, so expect some mouth-watering visuals and perhaps a recipe or two you can try at home. Given the post-holiday season, a healthy dose of culinary inspiration could be just what the doctor ordered.

Finally, the show will feature a conversation with Steven Knight, the creative force behind the upcoming film “Maria” and the critically acclaimed series “Peaky Blinders.” Knight’s work often explores themes of ambition, power, and resilience, so expect a discussion that goes beyond the usual promotional fluff. This is a chance to hear from a writer and producer who’s left a distinct mark on both film and television.

“CBS Mornings” airs on CBS. This Saturday edition broadcasts on January 4, 2025.
