COVER STORY: The age-old question: How old is too old for Washington, D.C.?
With the two oldest candidates in U.S. history leading the race for the presidency, and Congress dominated by politicians who are decades older than the average citizen, the question of age has come to dominate much of the conversation this election year. But should it? CBS News chief election & campaign correspondent Robert Costa talks with the Washington Post's Dan Balz (considered one of the deans of the Washington press corps) and California Representative Sara Jacobs (one of the youngest members of Congress) about the generational divide.

COVER STORY: Redefining old age
This isn't your grandfather's old age. CBS News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jonathan LaPook talks with experts about the distinctions between normal and abnormal aging as it affects memory issues, a workforce continuing beyond traditional retirement age, and the testing of surgeons who currently work without age limits.

ARTS: Artist Michael Deas on earning the stamp of approval
Michael Deas may be one of the most famous painters you've never heard of – in fact, much of his work can be bought for pennies. The New Orleans artist is responsible for more than two dozen postage stamps, of such luminaries as Marilyn Monroe, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and playwright Tennessee Williams. Correspondent Conor Knighton talked with Deas about the process of painting portraits for the U.S. Postal Service; creating covers for Time magazine; and redesigning the female figure holding a torch who introduces films from Columbia Pictures.

THEATER: LaChanze on expanding diversity behind Broadway's curtains
Rhonda LaChanze Sapp, better known as LaChanze, has spent most of her life on stage, appearing on Broadway in such shows as "Once on This Island," "Ragtime," "Summer," and "The Color Purple," for which she won a Tony Award. But throughout her career she did not see much diversity behind the scenes. And so, after 40 years as a performer, LaChanze took on a new role as a Broadway producer – and won two more Tonys, for best musical ("Kimberly Akimbo") and best revival of a play ("Top Dog/Underdog"). She talks with correspondent David Pogue about the strides for inclusivity made by her advocacy organization, Black Theater United.

WORLD: Ukrainians' fight for survival entering its third year
When Russian forces bombarded the Ukrainian city of Mariupol nearly two years ago, journalist Mstyslav Chernov and his colleagues with the Associated Press stayed in the besieged city to document the horrendous humanitarian crisis. The footage they managed to transmit to the world opened eyes to the horrors of the Russian attack, and is now the basis of his Oscar-nominated documentary, "20 Days in Mariupol." CBS News national security correspondent David Martin talks with Chernov about the suffering he witnessed. He also talks with Ukrainian soldiers wounded during last year's counter-offensive; and with Senator Angus King, who says ending American aid for Ukraine's war will be "the greatest geopolitical mistake this country has made in generations."

MUSIC: The authentic Ashley McBryde
Country artist Ashley McBryde is unafraid to write lyrics that struck a chord, and maybe a few nerves, with the release of her introspective fourth studio album, "The Devil I Know." What makes her success all the sweeter is that almost all of it came after McBryde took on one of her demons: alcohol. She's now celebrating almost two years sober. Correspondent Lee Cowan talks with McBryde, and her mom, about Ashley's journey from child songwriter to Grammy-winner and Grand Ole Opry star.
