This Sunday, “CBS Sunday Morning” is brewing a potent cocktail of celebrity interviews, historical reflection, and heartwarming human interest stories.
Lee Cowan saddles up for a tour of Ted Turner’s vast land holdings, now open to the public. Turner, the man who once colorized Casablanca (much to the chagrin of cinephiles), now seems intent on sharing his natural landscapes with the masses. It will be interesting to see if Cowan can wrangle any insights beyond the usual conservation talking points.
Then, Tracy Smith sits down with Selena Gomez, to discuss her evolving career and recent role in “Emilia Pérez.” Gomez’s journey from Disney ingenue to critically acclaimed actress is certainly a story worth exploring.
Switching gears entirely, Mark Phillips secures an interview with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who’s out with a new memoir. Merkel’s perspective on global affairs will undoubtedly be a focal point.
For the foodies in the audience, Tony Dokoupil will be chatting with “Top Chef” judge Tom Colicchio about his new book, “Why I Cook.”
Also on tap: Mo Rocca interviews radio personality Elvis Duran, Jim Axelrod talks with author Wright Thompson about his new book on the Emmett Till case, Steve Hartman delivers a feel-good story about a Missouri school custodian, and Jim Gaffigan riffs on the perennial tragedy that is being a New York Jets fan.
“CBS Sunday Morning” airs Sunday, December 1, 2024 from 9:00-10:30 AM, ET on CBS and streams on Paramount+.
