The Treasury Secretary – Norah O'Donnell interviews treasury secretary Janet Yellen about the record rate of inflation, the war in Ukraine, and whether there will be a recession in 2023. 60 MINUTES also traveled with the secretary to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing in Fort Worth to see the first U.S. dollars with her signature roll off the printing presses. It is the first time in American history the names of two women – Secretary Yellen and U.S. treasurer Lynn Malerba – have appeared on U.S. currency in the country's nearly 250-year history. 

Suing Social Media – Sharyn Alfonsi reports on how new legal challenges against Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and Snapchat may alter the future landscape of social media. More than 1,200 families are pursuing lawsuits against the social media giants, accusing the platforms of impacting their kids' mental health and, in some cases, causing the death of their children. Alfonsi sits down with some of these families and the founder of the Social Media Victims Law Center. 

College of Magic – You can't wave a wand and make intolerance, poverty, and violence disappear, but you can use magic to try. Jon Wertheim visits the College of Magic in Cape Town, South Africa, where students learn sleight of hand, juggling, ventriloquism, and card tricks. But what the school really teaches is also the great superpower of magic itself: rethinking the limits of possibility.

After Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Inspector Donny "Fitz" Fitzpatrick digs too deeply into a local politician's nefarious activity, he is exiled to work in Saint-Pierre et Miquelon (the French Territory nestled in the Atlantic Ocean just off the coast of Newfoundland). Fitz's arrival disrupts the life of Deputy Chief Geneviève "Arch" Archambault, a Parisian transplant who is in Saint-Pierre for her own intriguing reasons. 

As if by fate, these two seasoned officers — with very different policing skills and approaches — are forced together to solve unique and exciting crimes. Although the islands seem like a quaint tourist destination, the idyllic façade conceals the worst kind of criminal activity which tend to wash up on its beautiful shores. At first at odds and suspicious of each other, Arch and Fitz soon discover that they are better together... a veritable crime-fighting force.
