I was unaware of RT's troubles-

In 2013 country singer Randy Travis suffered a massive stroke, which paralyzed his right side and damaged an area of his brain that controls speech and language. He has not quite recovered the ability to sing, but working with singer James DuPre and a computer program that creates an AI-generated version of his voice, Travis and his longtime producer Kyle Lehning have created a new song, "Where That Came From," that captures Randy's country heart. Lee Cowan reports.


"What would AI for good sound like"? THIS

New York Times bestselling author and humorist A.J. Jacobs is back with another chronicle of an immersive experiment. As recounted in his new book, "The Year of Living Constitutionally," Jacobs spent a year exploring the language and history of our nation's founding document and amendments, sometimes with a musket in tow. He talked with CBS News' John Dickerson about the Constitution's balance of powers, created to protect against a tyrant; the logistics of petitioning the government; and the joys of writing with a quill pen.


"Putting others before yourself".

Fascinating story with amazing commitment.

A Dollar!
In Baton Rouge, La., nine-year-old Kelvin Ellis Jr. thought he'd found an opportunity to help a homeless person, when he spotted a disheveled man standing outside a coffee shop. Kevin offered the man, Matt Busbice, a dollar bill – the only money he had. Steve Hartman reports on the boy's selfless act, and what he received in return.

From 60 Minutes-
A high school teacher didn’t expect a solution when she set a 2,000-year-old Pythagorean Theorem problem in front of her students. Then Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson stepped up to the challenge.


Nice to see what can happen with support and encouragement!

A Mother's Love and support-

For Peggy Means of Dowagiac, Mich., Mother's Day was just another "X" on the calendar, just another day without her daughter, Jennifer, who in 2017 was critically injured in a car crash before slipping into a coma. But Means refused to let doctors take Jennifer off life support. Steve Hartman reports on why Means finally can celebrate Mother's Day.

What do you get with talent and planning? Without a whip and a chair, a roomful of talent got together, put their egos on a shelf and produced a song.

Four decades ago, Lionel Richie and Michael Jackson teamed up to write a charity song to raise funds to fight famine in Africa – and they got the biggest stars of the music world in the same room with producer Quincy Jones to record it. Richie talks with correspondent Tracy Smith about the making of "We Are the World," and how – following the new Netflix documentary, "The Greatest Night in Pop" – the song is back on the charts, continuing to raise millions for those in need.
