WORLD: Amazing Mazes
British designer Adrian Fisher has created hundreds of mazes around the work – works of art that tantalize and confound those who try to navigate through hedgerows, corn stalks, yew trees, or lights. Correspondent Seth Doane gets lost in our fascination with puzzling mazes, and sets out to complete Fisher’s monumental maze on the grounds of Leeds Castle in Kent, England, where there is no Google Maps to help you find your way out.

But the city has also become a flashpoint in the national conversation about immigration.

MUSIC: Stevie Nicks on “The Lighthouse,” her rallying cry for women’s rights
Stevie Nicks became a superstar as lead singer and songwriter for the ’70s band Fleetwood Mac, and a platinum-selling solo artist.

Wade. She also discusses the loss of her bandmate Christine McVie in 2022, and how she continues to pay tribute to her.

He talks with “60 Minutes” correspondent Jon Wertheim about his love for baseball, and how it has manifested in his adjacent careers as actor, commercial pitchman, and TV talk show guest.
