MUSIC: Joey and Rory
Rory Feek spent 14 years on a farm in Pottsville, Tennessee, with his wife, Joey. When their country music career took off, they converted their barn into a concert hall. But early this year, just as their album, “Hymns That Are Important to Us,” debuted atop the country chart, Joey lost a two-year battle with cancer.
For the past few months on the farm, Rory has been working on a new documentary: “To Joey, With Love,” the story of their relationship. Anthony Mason reports.

BILL GEIST: Washing machine collectors awash with enthusiasm on laundry day (Video)
Most people consider doing laundry a chore. They obviously don’t belong to The Washing Machine Collectors Club. Founded in 1984, the group’s members collect old and rare washing machines dating back to the 1940s. And when they get together for what they call a “wash-in,” the agenda includes -- what else? -- washing their dirty laundry while marveling at the inner workings of their beloved antiques. Part collector’s club, part support group, but all fun, as only our Bill Geist can show you. (This story was originally broadcast on September 20, 2015.)
SUNDAY PROFILE: Jerry Lewis returns
The comic legend is back on screen in “Max Rose.” Tracy Smith reports.
