American skating couple Madison Chock and Evan Bates won the silver medal in ice dancing at the 2026 Winter Olympics. The French team narrowly won gold despite visible mistakes. The couple told CBS News they delivered their "absolute best performance" and thought they would have won gold as controversy swirls around one judge's scoring. Leena Panwala and Tim Drury share their stories with "CBS Mornings" about how they're raising awareness and money for INAD, a rare genetic disorder. Panwala created the INAD Cure foundation after her daughter was diagnosed. The disorder affects about one in 1 million children. In 1969, a 17-year-old was found dead with 14 stab wounds in a field in Wahoo, Nebraska. Authorities couldn't work out why she'd been targeted and the case went cold for more than 50 years. Natalie Morales reports on how authorities eventually made an arrest. Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show has led to a huge spike in interest in his music and Puerto Rican culture. Dorian González Vega, the beverage director at Union Square Cafe in New York City, joins "CBS Mornings" to make some signature drink recipes. "Sinners" cinematographer Autumn Durald Arkapaw says she doesn't want the audience to notice her work because "you wanna make it so good it feels like a dream." The Oscar nominee is the first woman of color nominated in the cinematography category and only the fourth woman ever. It's the only Oscars category never won by a woman. She talks about her career journey to this historic moment.

Andy and Jeff react to the controversial comments made by Kansas State's coach.

The Epstein scandal is no longer confined to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson — Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are now being pulled into the blast radius.Newly released emails suggest Epstein's presence in the York family orbit was deeper than previously understood. Royal journalist Victoria Murphy calls the messages “really, really uncomfortable reading,” while author Andrew Lownie argues the sisters were not “five-year-old girls” and cannot be dismissed as bystanders.Behind the scenes, sources say Andrew and Ferguson are drifting apart, with Fergie reportedly telling friends she needs money and may distance herself from her ex-husband as she eyes a comeback — potentially even a memoir or television interview. Palace aides are said to be alarmed at the prospect.There is also speculation Andrew himself could consider a book, a move one commentator warns could be “the final nail in the coffin.” Newly released FBI transcripts include references to Andrew, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell mocking Ferguson privately, while resurfaced emails show Ferguson praising Epstein after his 2009 jail release.As questions mount about who pushed hardest to sideline Andrew — King Charles or Prince William — the monarchy braces for more turbulence. And amid it all, Buckingham Palace announces a state visit from Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a reminder that diplomacy must continue even as scandal dominates the headlines.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy."Crown and Controversy: Norway" is covering the trial of Marius Borg Høiby as the Norwegian Royal Family is faced with multiple scandals of their own.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

As the Epstein fallout intensifies around Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Meghan Markle is reportedly urging Prince Harry to stay silent and avoid being dragged into what one royal expert calls the biggest royal crisis since Princess Diana's death. Duncan Larcombe says Meghan will be wary of “guilt by association” and likely telling Harry, “keep your head down, don't get involved.”Harry is said to be especially distressed for Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, two of the few royals who maintained ties with him. Meanwhile, Meghan is preparing a carefully curated Valentine's Day publicity blitz for her As Ever brand, built around romance and nostalgia — even as speculation swirls about the couple leading increasingly separate professional lives.Reports claim the Sussexes are on “different paths,” with Meghan focused on Hollywood and Harry on Invictus and UK commitments. There are even whispers of contingency plans should things unravel. Add in Kim Kardashian drama, an EastEnders jam joke, and accusations Meghan is in “meltdown mode,” and it's another week of relentless Sussex headlines.Meanwhile, Prince William attempts to refocus attention on conservation efforts in Saudi Arabia — planting trees, praising ecological restoration projects and talking Arabian leopards — as the wider royal storm shows no sign of easing.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy."Crown and Controversy: Norway" is covering the trial of Marius Borg Høiby as the Norwegian Royal Family is faced with multiple scandals of their own.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Prince William got an awkward shout about “the Andrew and Epstein scandal” while visiting a girls' football session in Saudi Arabia and, surprise, didn't answer. The moment hit as King Charles made a rare public intervention back home, saying the Palace would assist police if an investigation is opened into allegations tied to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. While the headlines screamed monarchy crisis, William's schedule churned out glossy optics anyway, including an esports stop where he admitted, “I have no idea what I'm doing,” before losing at Rocket League alongside Saudi royals. Sky's Rhiannon Mills and ITV's Chris Ship say the timing of the two palace statements was no accident and that the royal “keep calm and carry on” machine is now working under the Epstein shadow everywhere it goes. The episode ends with US Congressman Ro Khanna warning the monarchy is at its most vulnerable and urging Andrew to testify.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy."Crown and Controversy: Norway" is covering the trial of Marius Borg Høiby as the Norwegian Royal Family is faced with multiple scandals of their own.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Princess Eugenie made her first public appearance since the latest Epstein document dump, popping up at a high end art fair in Doha with friend Caroline Daur, who posted a photo and wrote it had “been too long.” Back in Britain, Thames Valley Police confirmed it is reviewing a complaint from Republic and also assessing a separate allegation that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor assaulted a woman trafficked by Epstein at Royal Lodge, claims Andrew denies. New emails in the files suggest Epstein's circle worried about what Sarah Ferguson's longtime aide Johnny O'Sullivan might reveal, as Andrew Lownie warns that if charges ever came, Andrew could bolt to a non extradition safe haven. There's also fresh eyebrow raising chatter over Andrew keeping the late Queen's corgis, and a RadarOnline report claiming the renewed scandal is grinding down King Charles as he continues cancer treatment.

In this week's Family Meeting, we unpack the headlines and apply a biblical lens to cultural chaos. First up: Logos Bible Software's Black History Month promotion sparked major backlash—offering discounts on "Black Christian Voices" while mixing solid teachers (like Voddie Baucham and Tony Evans) with progressive, LGBTQ-affirming, and womanist theology authors (including Raphael Warnock). Then: Bad Bunny's Super Bowl 2026 halftime show drew fierce controversy. We discuss if this reps Latino culture or pushes ratchet culture and anti-American vibes. We also tackle the IVF crisis and the staggering embryo wastage and why Christians must prioritize the sanctity of human life and child-centered justice. Plus: Politicized nurses' unions and tribalism in healthcare

Idaho was the first state to slap a slogan on a license plate, “Idaho Potatoes,” which may not seem like a big deal, but it turns out this idea would end up having outsized consequences, and not just for Idaho. Because what started in one state would soon spread. And when it did, the question of what should go on a license plate, and what shouldn't, would prove surprisingly contentious.

Clay welcomes author Matthew Davis to talk about his new book, Biography of a Mountain: The Making and Meaning of Mount Rushmore. How did it happen that a mountain in the heart of the Black Hills of South Dakota, in land sovereign to the Lakota Indians, came to be the canvas on which Gutzon Borglum carved four monumental figures in American history: Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt? Should it matter to us that Borglum was a member of the KKK? Why are there no women, no African Americans, no Native Americans carved up there? What is the future of Mount Rushmore, and who, by the way, was this obscure New York lawyer, Charles E. Rushmore, who visited the region in 1885? We give considerable attention to Gerard Baker, the Hidatsa Native who served as superintendent at Mount Rushmore from 2004 to 2010 and revolutionized how we interpret the site.
