An estimated 33 million American adults will struggle at some point with a phobia – an intense fear of something that poses little or no threat, from flying to cockroaches to a trip to the dentist. Susan Spencer talks with experts about the lengths people will go to in order to overcome their fears.
“Sunday Morning” looks back at historical events on this date.
We know very little about the brown tarantula (Aphonopelma hentzi), whose habitat stretches from Louisiana to Texas and Colorado. But the first question arachnid expert Cara Shillington asks is, why are we afraid of tarantulas? She talks with Jonathan Vigliotti, who also visits Colorado’s La Junta Tarantula Fest, an annual celebration of the eight-legged creature that draws thousands to see thousands of brown tarantulas wandering the Comanche National Grassland in a haphazard, often halting hunt for a mate.
Despite building more than 80 percent of its American-sold vehicles in the U.S. – the highest share of any Detroit automaker – Ford Motor Company still imports many parts, which have been hit hard by tariffs. Ford CEO Jim Farley discusses with Kris Van Cleave why he says President Trump’s tariffs, which have cost Ford $2 billion, are jeopardizing the company’s investments in America – and may give an advantage to their competitors. He also explains why he drives a Chinese-made electric vehicle.
“Sunday Morning” remembers some of the notable figures who left us this week.
Robert Costa reports.
Since our second president, John Adams, inhabited the White House, it has been burned by British troops, reconstructed, expanded, and gut-renovated. Mo Rocca looks at the history of a cherished American landmark, which this past week was partly demolished by the White House’s current occupant, President Trump, who is building a huge, privately-funded ballroom.
He’s earned country music’s Entertainer of the Year Award eight times. But Kenny Chesney’s latest work is a book, “Heart Life Music,” in which he describes his life’s journey, from Knoxville, Tenn., to No Shoes Nation and beyond. Chesney sits down with Lee Cowan in the Florida Keys, where the country superstar is just another laid-back local, to talk about family, touring, and how he recovered from a 2009 concert which he describes as “hitting a wall.”
Nicholas Thompson, CEO of The Atlantic, is known as a tech journalist, public speaker, author – and world-class competitive long-distance runner. He talks with Tony Dokoupil about how his father inspired him to take up running, how he faced a cancer diagnosis, and why he’s passing on his athletic passion to his children. He also discusses his new book, “The Running Ground” – part memoir, part call to the runner in all of us.
Oscar-winning director Guillermo del Toro is adding his spin to one of the most-filmed horror stories – the mythic tale of a scientist creating a man from body parts – with his latest, “Frankenstein.” He talks with Seth Doane about his lifelong fascination with horror, why Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley was his first crush, and how “in reality we’re all weird in some way.” Doane also talks with Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi, who play Victor Frankenstein and his creature.
Ballerina Misty Copeland, who became the first Black female principal dancer in the history of the American Ballet Theatre in New York ten years ago, performed for the last time on the ballet stage on Wed., Oct. 22, 2025. In this Dec. 14, 2014 profile, Anthony Mason visited with the breakthrough star who’d joined ABT’s corps de ballet in 2001, and she described how change is coming slowly to the world of classical dance.
Historian Jill Lepore, author of “We the People: A History of the U.S. Constitution,” talks with Tony Dokoupil about competing histories of America; polarization; and dissent as an act of patriotism.
