The fifth annual “Tom Twomey Series” continues on Saturday, June 29, at 6 p.m. with “Washington Update: A Conversation with CBS News’ Rita Braver and Attorney Robert Barnett.”

The renowned husband-and-wife power duo will switch places, with the lawyer Mr. Barnett asking the questions of journalist Ms. Braver as they share a behind-the-scenes view of what’s happening in the nation’s capital.
