	Description:		Only on the "CBS This Morning" podcast, Scottish actor Brian Cox discusses playing President Lyndon B. Johnson in the new Broadway show -- "The Great Society" -- and the reaction to Sunday's finale of "Succession." Cox, who pays patriarch Logan Roy on the HBO series, tells CBS News business analyst Jill Schlesinger how he's come to understand his character, what the two men have in common and the one question about Logan he's still struggling with. Cox reveals which character he believes is the moral compass on the show and what the experience of working with guest stars Holly Hunter and Cherry Jones was like. As a sequel to Bryan Cranston's "All The Way," "The Great Society" looks at how LBJ's grand vision for a domestic agenda was limited by the Vietnam War.
