Summary

While the Northeast braces for a wild winter storm, residents of Florida are being warned about frozen lizards falling from the trees. In election news, daytime TV host Dr. Oz is struggling to connect with GOP power brokers as he preps for a senate run in Pennsylvania. Meanwhile… You might want to think twice before you treat your special someone to Valentine’s Day dinner at White Castle this year. Then, the fabulous Marlee Matlin (joined by her interpreter, Jack) makes her first visit to The Late Show to celebrate the release of her new film, “CODA,” on Apple TV+. Matlin chats with Stephen about her decades-long efforts to coax Hollywood into hiring more deaf actors, writers, and directors, and increasing deaf representation on screen. Check out “CODA,” which stands for Child Of Deaf Adults, streaming now on Apple TV+. Next up, “Station Eleven” star Mackenzie Davis stops by to chat with Stephen about the new season of her pandemic-themed show, and how her relationship with the works of Shakespeare has changed over the years.
