We speak with musicians Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz about their new album, "Watchhouse." Watchhouse is also the new name of the duo's band, formerly known as Mandolin Orange. And, former U.S. military interpreter Zamzama Safi speaks with us about her evacuation from Afghanistan on the day Kabul fell. Safi had help from the office of Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, a Democrat of Missouri, and has arrived in the state to start a new life.
