- After sportswriter Mitch Albom reconnected with retired university professor Morrie Schwartz, who was dying of ALS (a.k.a. Lou Gehrig's Disease), their weekly conversations became the basis of Albom's bestselling "Tuesdays with Morrie." Twenty-five years after the book's publication, "Sunday Morning" senior contributor Ted Koppel talks with Albom about how its examination of impending death turned his life inside-out.

“Tuesdays with Morrie” and “The Five People You Meet in Heaven”, are both breathtaking books, written by him. I still remember reading “The Five People”, for my Summer reading program for my 5th Grade class. Truly memorable.
I really enjoyed the movie Tuesdays with Morrie.
Tuesdays with Morrie reminded me to live in the moment. I read the book in my twenties. I am in my fifties now, and I still love the book.
"Tuesdays with Morrie" is one of my all-time favorite books.
What a nice story…..will linger with anyone who sees this
Well done, Morrie's smiling.
His parents said "Don't expect your life to finish here. There's a big world out there. Go out and see it." I've never heard much truer words.
Thank you. I feel so moved. I will need to get this book.
Me too.
Mitch is such a great humanitarian! His books are all unique and hearfelt.
I read this book in college. I’ll never forget it.
Great story and great wisdom
A lot of people are walking around ,hurt, broken,blooding on the in side and some smile.you never what's going on with them unless they tell someone.
I love this book and Mitch’s other works. ❤
In England, for a small % of ALS aka MND patients, they now have a drug enabling those patients with a genetic glitch to recover a lot. Takes time, isn’t a cure, but I’m sure Morrie is smiling. Thank you, Mr Albom.
Just noticed Ted Koppel is British-American...#excellentinterviewer
LOL
If what this story portrays is true. Giving half the royalties to the family, the philanthropy, etc, then good for him.
Why wouldn’t it be true?
@@gailwebb9619 because I'm jaded and skeptical of everything. Seen more than my share of deceiving stories over the years.
@@joeybaseball7352 I think Mitch is on the level and donates a great deal of money and time to his various charities.
So sweet and profound
I seldom cry over anything...but this report took me to that evening when my friend Darren, a doctor by trade, took me to the see the play performed by a NY traveling company. He died in an accident two years ago, halfway through life. Watching this reminded me of our time together.
HEY 👋 I love watching CBS Sunday mornings ♥️🕊😇☮️😎
All of Mitch's books are incredible. If you love Tuesdays with Morrie, you should read Have a Little Faith. Then watch the movies. It will change your heart.
God bless you Mitch. You are doing God's work. 🙏🏽🤎 ✝️
Terrific interview with one of my favorite authors. Love “Tuesdays …” , the Five People You’ll Meet in Heaven, et al. every time I picked them up.
The five people and the time keeper are my fave's.
I just finished reading this book and it moved me. ❤❤❤
i love mitch albom, i read tuesdays with morrie in tenth grade and i love the 5 people you meet in heaven and its sequel.
Thank you ...!!
“You’re a good writer but you’re not Mark Twain, for God’s sake.” Geesh, what a snarky and unnecessary comment.
You took it the wrong way
@@jjj1951 how so?
I'm definitely will read Tuesdays with morrie
And it is AMAZING
WOW!!! Im blown away by this story!!😊
CBS Sunday Morning your one my life teacher which watch your episodes have enlightening thank you
Giving Is Living! 🤘😎
Good to see you both.
I should read the book again!
I'm reading this for the first time now! The universe must approve!
Mitch and just cute 🥰 bow legged walk!😝He seems like such a sweetheart-bless him and the life mission he’s on thanks 🙏 to Morrie🥹🙏🥰
Very Profound!!!
Chuck in Michigan
Mitch is Mitch and Mark is Mark...Thanks Mitch -Regards from India .
Touching 🥰
I need to read it again
Mitch is such a beautiful soul. That he sleeps in Haiti better tells you everything. God bless him.
Enjoyed the long UA-cam interview
Yes, giving reaps rewards.
Tuesday's everlasting
I had to read that book in 8th grade
I have never seen this movie. A movie ‘Dad’ made ten years before was good (my opinion). I am going to watch this tonight
So this is where ‘Tuesday’s With Stories’ got its name. COMEDY! Side note, I will be reading this.
❤
The greatest line the TV show “The Gilmore Girls” is when Rory looks at a library with 13 million volumes in it and wonders how long it would take to read all those books. Her mother says, “But honey, you don’t have to read every one of them. Tuesdays with Morrie, skip that.”
I thought of that when this segment started! Lorelai dissing the book is why I forever associate her with it. 😂
Lucky Morrie.
Mazeltov!

Mitch Albom is such a remarkable human being. So is Ted Koppel. Watching these two men on a network television show like this sharing a screen completely puts on blast just how much media has degraded to the revolting cesspool of shameless propaganda it is today. Most of the time it goes unnoticed because they are all revolting hucksters. So there’s no contrast. But when you see two guys like this covering a story like this, it brings right to the forefront of my mind just how horrendous media is in 2022 America.
Could someone give Ted a double shot of coffee or something? Interesting story… sloooooooooooooow delivery.
Oh please.
I wish we would stop calling it "Lou Gehrig's Disease," because:
It has a proper name--ALS.
Several generations have no idea who Lou Gehrig was.
Lou Gehrig should be remembered for his exploits on the baseball field and not that he happened to be afflicted by a disease that would later bear his name.
Looks like Alfred E. Newman has aged.
Given what mitch was found guilty of later, you have to question the accuracy of every thing he wrote IMHO. Say what you will but do your homework. Mitch is sketchy.
No one is a saint
@@jjj1951 A later internal investigation found no other similar instances in Albom's past columns, but did cite an editorial-wide problem of routinely using unattributed quotes from other sources.[Wikipedia]
@@jjj1951 which is why you’d buy Hitler’s paintings?
Mitch has all that money, and can't afford a better hairpiece?
It’s his hair, he just needs to back off on that Just For Men a little bit.
That is what you got out of this segment today? Not the wonderful books, all the charities and the school in Haiti? SMH.
How is this comment necessary?
@@gailwebb9619 bad apple
Why? Just why?
Mitch Album is such a horrible writer that his book shares the distinction of being only a handful that were so bad I couldn't finish. But if it made him into a better person, good for him and God bless him! He should be thankful for ignorant Americans who follow every command of Oprah!
