Send JD a text message and be heard!JD TALKIN SPORTS OVI TIES THE GREAT ONE! The torch has been passed from @waynegretzky to @aleksandrovechkinofficial never thought I would see this in my lifetime. Love Gretzky congratulating @ryan.leno_4 on his first #nhl goal with @capitals plus Ovi refusing to break the record with an empty netter. @companyadjace @downtimetv @brianbarnaby @robparker1980 & @donna.fender talked @yankees @thejudge44 hit his 6th #homerun last night. Took him 29 #mlb games last year. Barns brought up good point how negative people have been this year about Yanks since losing @juansoto_25 to @mets and we see it as a blessing in disguise. I never felt Soto was a true Yankee and he obviously took the most money. Good riddance. Love that Barns & HTJ are not fair weather fans of the Yankees & Mets respectively. Honest, diehard fans. Mets won opening day with only four hits all for extra bases and @polarpete20 off to a hot start with 3 dingers and 10 RBI's. @tylor_megill 2-0 start. It's good for NYC if both teams are playing well. @d1_isaac3 @mvillemustangfb want you on a future show. @nyrangers getting beat up @njdevils 2-43 on the PP fighting for a playoff spot. I would love them to get to the #nhlplayoffs but a rebuild is needed. Lot of players underperforming. @nyknicks getting back @jalenbrunson1 but don't feel good about #nbaplayoffs

Hollywood icon Val Kilmer died Tuesday of pneumonia at 65 years old. The actor was known for his roles in movies like "Top Gun," "Batman Forever" and "The Doors." CBS News' Vlad Duthiers looks back on his life and legacy. May 7 is the fast-approaching deadline to get a Real ID. Afterward, you could have a harder time getting into a government building or through airport security without one. CBS News senior transportation correspondent Kris Van Cleave has more. In their new book, authors and moms Kate Swenson, Carrie Cariello and Adrian Wood reflect on raising their three sons with autism, offering insight into the challenges, triumphs and deep bond of friendship that helped carry them through. Luigi Mangione, who is accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel in December, may now be facing the death penalty. On Tuesday, Attorney General Pam Bondi released a statement directing prosecutors to seek the punishment for Mangione. In an exclusive interview, the wife of a Maryland migrant spoke to CBS News after the Trump administration admitted to mistakenly deporting the man to a notorious El Salvador prison due to an "administrative error." Kilmar Abrego Garcia received protected immigration status from a judge in 2019, but was part of the controversial deportation flights last month. Earlier this year, Caroline Darian, daughter of Gisèle Pelicot, filed a complaint with the police in France accusing her father of drugging and sexually abusing her. Her allegations follow his conviction for repeatedly raping her mother and inviting other men to do the same. Darian shares her story in the memoir "I'll Never Call Him Dad Again." Soccer icon Megan Rapinoe and basketball legend Sue Bird sit down for an exclusive conversation on their podcast, their lives off the field and their next chapter as changemakers in sports and media. Only four NHL players are of Hispanic descent, despite the league's presence in Latino-heavy states. The L.A. Kings are working to change that by offering free youth hockey programs to underrepresented communities.

For their first (of hopefully many) podcast double dates, Abby and Glennon sit down with the icons, activists, and Olympians Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird. In this honest and hilarious conversation, we find out: 1. The delightfully awkward moment Megan and Sue first met; 2. What's hard for each of them right now; 3. The boundaries they're working on together; 4. How they communicate and deal with jealousy; and 5. How they help each other show up in the world as champions for change. About Sue: Regarded as the world's premier point guard, Sue Bird is the WNBA's All-Time Leader in Assists and known for being selfless, driven, encouraging, funny and smart. Bird is a seasoned veteran and a born leader who has dominated at every level. She is one of only seven women to win an Olympic Gold Medal (she's won five), a World Championship Gold Medal (she's won four) an NCAA Championship (she's won two), and a WNBA Championship (she's won four – the last just weeks before her 40th birthday). Sue is also a five-time Euroleague Champion, a twelve- time WNBA All-Star, was voted by the fans as one of the WNBA's Top 15 Players of All Time. Off the court, Sue spends time as a basketball analyst for ESPN and as an outspoken and visible activist advocating for Black Lives, equality, health and wellness and expanding opportunities for girls and all marginalized people.

Megan took home the tournament's two top honors – the Golden Boot for top scorer, and the Golden Ball for the best player in the tournament.

This year has seen a boom in the worlds of women's sports and documentary films (and podcasting). So we invited the best point guard in the history of women's basketball (Sue Bird) and the best documentarian in the country (O.J.: Made in America's Ezra Edelman) for an in-person summit to discuss all of it. Plus: one-word answers from multi-hyphenates, wanting control, the good-faith mind games of talking to refs, the bad-faith ickiness of extracting controversy, the Billie Jean King of it all... and why the hard's not as hard, when you're doing the thing you were meant to be doing — even when it's hard.
