and valentine's day with stephen! plus, stephen welcomes mark wahlberg! and willie gladstone ! featuring louis cato and "the late show" band. and now, live on tape from the ed sullivan theater in new york city, it's stephen colbert. ♪ ♪ [cheers and applause] >> stephen: welcome, welcome, and here come out there, all the ships and sees, i am your host, stephen colbert. [cheers and applause] i just want to start tonight by saying calm down.

there's no reason to panic, and i know that because of the screaming headlines that say "no reason to panic." unfortunately, having no reason is my favorite way to panic. all of this because there is some alarming news from ohio are presented and men who just walked in on his son playing catch with another dad, mike turner. the republican chairman of the house intelligence committee released an unusual statement today warning of a serious national security threat without providing any additional details. that's unnecessarily vague. it's lie labeling a pack of cigarettes "surgeon general warning, trust me, you don't want to know" read we didn't get much more than that other than reports that the threat is related to russia. oh, my god. is it a bioweapon make is that cyber warfare? are they sending stevens a call

back? [laughter] well, whatever it is turner wants the white house to release the details of the threat to the public immediately. for their part, the white house said they were planning a congressional briefing for tomorrow adding that they couldn't do it today becaus they are little busy stocking up on candles. other congressmen on the inelligence committee have stepped forward to call for c calm. one connecticut congressman jim himes said i don't want people thinking that martians or landing or that your wednesday is going to be ruined. martians are landing? great, now my wednesday is ruined. so that was our midafternoon panic, right? midafternoon panic. by late afternoon we got some more details from sources with access to highly classified information. at mar-a-lago.used the bathroom- reportedly, the threat is russia wanting nuclear weapons in space, but before you get too worried, the nukes would not be to drop a weapon on earth from

orbit, but to possibly use against satellites. reminds me of that famous quotes -- famous quote from "often hire." "now i am become death, destroyer of gps, find your own way to costco." i cannot say this enough, there is no reason to panic about that. the only reason to panic as if you forgot it's valentine's day. you still have 20 minutes to save your marriage. this is an extra special valentine's day this year because valentine's day and ash wednesday fall in the same day, which explains why the top gift at cbs this year was an adorable toy there that says "for dust thou art and unto dust thou shall return." for any of you viewers who aren't catholic, these holidays are very different. valentine's day is all about sensual indulgence and making mobile ash wednesday is a day of fasting and reflection marking the start of lent. some captives made -- catholics

maybe tempted to celebrate both but one official words ash wednesday is far more significant and should be prioritized. if it sounds like somebody didn't get a valentines last year. bishop? this valentine's day, nearly half of u.s. adult population is unmarried. half, which means statistically speaking there's a 50% chance that if you're married, your spouse is not. ask. always ask. with this increase in singles, reports show that self gifting is on the rise. remember, the catholic church is against that too. [cheers and applause] okay. okay. that's a stroker. what i don't understand is what's the difference between self gifting and just buying things? this year i'm gifting myself an

oil change and a pack of gum. i am such a terrible gift giver, i have to break up with me, but i can't do it on valentines. it's not just singles, this valentine's day, polyamory is getting more attention mostly from that one couple that keeps saying "did we tell you we are polyamorous not? because we are and it's totally cool with both of us, right? honey? she's cool with it." as a happily married monogamous, i would never go in for polyamory is who has the time? or the energy, a two-person relationship is already work enough, i'm so busy that we work our date nights into the show now. she's on tonight. hi, sweetie. [cheers and applause] darling, do enjoy these jokes about polyamory. they are just jokes. [laughter]

donald trump celebrated the day& by writing a valentine to his wife melania and then having his campaign send a mass email blast with the subject line "i love you, melania." unsubscribe. [laughter and cheering] the actual text of the valentine is actually pretty weird. it reads "dear melania, i love you, even after every single indictment, arrest, and witch hunt, you never left my side. through thick and thin, no matter what the deal -- through thick and thin, no matter what deal the prosecutors offers offers you, you kept your trap shut. that's what i call love. also what our prenup calls minimum negotiated terms."

last night -- [applause] just last night -- love. i love love. last night we got big election results in the special election to fill the house seat vacated by republican fabulous george santos sr. on television for the last time. republicans were hoping to hang onto the seat with their candidate but the clear winner was democrat, seen here -- seen here at seaworld begging for fish. [laughter] he won by a commanding eight-point lead and delivered a victory speech last night where he laid out his vision for america. >> it's time to find common ground and start delivering for the people of the united states of america. let's take our country back from

[heers and applause] he also had some think he was give out. >> i want to thank the chairman of the queens republic republican party -- should i say republican? i don't want to think the chairman of the queens republican party. i want to thank the queens democratic party. >> stephen: with a mix up like that a lot of people are asking

if suozzi is too old to be president. the district he now represents is the most diverse district in the united states and he made sure to shout out to all his supporters... >> i want to thank the jewish voters of my district who stuck with me. i want to thank the chinese-americans who helped me. i want to thank the korean americans and i want to thank the indian americans, the pakistani, the bangladeshis, the muslim communities. the african americans, latino americans, the white, irish, and italian guys. i want to the women -- >> stephen: and i want to thank men who are under 5'5", icu, short kings! i've got to think magness, this one icelandic american guy i see sometimes. let's see, will my leaving out, left-handed ghosts back this is a swing district, so it's not a

didn't seek donald trump's endorsement and the fact that she didn't made him mad as he posted last night "republicans just don't learn i have an almost 99% endorsement success rate in primaries and a very good number in general elections." if she just would have embraced trump she could have joined the ranks of success stories like senator's, senator brain-damaged and governor different kind of brain damage. he went on. "most of the republican party stayed home and it always will unless it is treated with the respect that it deserves. i stayed out of the race. if i want to be loved! wow, that came out of nowhere. his subconscious just jumped up his throat and strangle his brain. "we must get out of nato because they aren't paying their fair -- i want love, daddy, please hug me. hug me once, share of the

>> stephen: please welcome to "the late show," lily gladstone. [cheers and applause] ♪ ♪ i love this! fantastic! please, please, thank you very much. i think you might be the first guess to ever come on with their own train. >> and a valentine, have a valentine. >> stephen: should i open it

now? this is lovely! >> got a long tail. >> stephen: it says "be mine," isn't that lovely? evie, you needn't watch this part. this is so lovely, thank you very much! >> absolutely, thanks for having me on! >> stephen: happy valentine's day to you and congratulations on your oscar nomination. what an extraordinary -- [cheers and applause] it's an amazing film, scorsese keeps finding new vocabulary to tell stories. ten nominations for this film, best actress for you, first native american woman to be nominated for an oscar in a lead role. [cheers and applause] what was that -- first of all, how did you find out about the nomination? do you get a call in the morning with the nobel prize? where were you? >> we learn like everybody else does, by watching.

so i was in osage county on the osage reservation and face timing with my parent's so if it were to go the way that it did, have a foot in both worlds i guess. so i was on facetime with my mom and dad and it was funny, my mom very naturally did the mom thing it at the camera up to the tv so i could see what they were seeing. couldn't really see -- just little white lines of light with no definition. i was like i can't tell what's going on so she held the phone out and make sure they were both in there. so she was holding the phone up when the announcement came in. i couldn't hear it, but i could tell by their reactions. >> stephen: you are right in their face. that's extraordinary. you could have read it someplace else because her high school yearbook in 2004 i'm at this photo going viral. they called it 20 years ago most likely to win and oscar.

[cheers and applause] so they -- was everyone aware that they called it 20 years ago? >> yeah. and it's our 20 year reunion so the 20 year reunion is kind of building around a watch party for the oscars, it seems, which is really sweet, the initial plan was to have it in our old high school theater, but kind of reached capacity, there were really enough seats in our old theater. >> stephen: you are not going to be able to go to your 20th reunion because you will be at the oscars. >> i will waved everybody from stage, i guess. >> stephen: that's nice. let's talk about the love story of molly and ernest burkart. it's an unusual love story but they do appear for all the betrayal and how dark the story is, there does appear to be love there. how would you describe that relationship based on what you know if the character and what your research is? because it's incredibly complex. >> yeah, it's a little twofold

in that one it is true to the history, particularly her granddaughter, who i got to meet and i can just see that's where she probably -- how he drew a lot of inspiration from how he sketched on the book but a meeting with 250 members present from the gray horse district where she was from and margie went up and said you've got to remember you are in love. he insisted to the day he died that she was a good one, as he would say. there was a legacy in the kids, people remember their kids being very fun-loving and close to each other and even after ernest had gotten out of prison his son cowboy would go pick him up and drive around with him, gave him the nickname all dynamite. >> stephen: because he used dynamite to blow up the houses of the people who were standing up? >> because of his guilt and the complicity of it.

it doesn't make sense, yet it is. there was real love in this family. these kids had what we can assume was a happy home life because they grew into very fun-loving people who love each other a lot. so there was that element and then in our first meeting, the first time that i zoomed with them talking about some of the script changes, it very much occurred to me that this love story and serve as a greater analogy for the bigger betrayal here of colonization of indigenous people, the amount of trust on tribal parts in these relationships and these treaty relationships, that haven't been honored but have been like systemically over time just betrayed our own sovereignty being eroded, i could see this love story serves as a nice little microcosm for that larger conversation. >> stephen: is it true, and if true, i love this, that during the dash you know, the covid lockdowns of 2020 you apply for

a job at the department of agriculture? >> i was in the process of registering for a data analytics course so i could get paid for it. kind of volunteer for citizen science of course but i was staying the county south where the murder hornets had settled in, i have a part protective, almost maternal love for bees, particularly bumblebees so it just kind of felt like a purpose calling me. >> stephen: disses you with your beloved bees. >> and those are honeybees. >> stephen: what you love about bees? >> so much. i put honey in everything. it's my go-to for every little rash or cut, it's just honey. it kind of traces back to 2018, settling into winter, it was right before i shot -- it was another sort of pause in my career and i was looking for purpose and i was bringing my

dog back from a walk and she just fixated on this little buzz and the succulents in front of our house and it was a beat, she tends to eat bees so i just scooped it up so she wouldn't get stung and it was a little chunky bumblebee, try belted tricolored bumblebee, which is in indigenous species and i moved him to the back porch and two days later he was still there like looking inside like he was wantingto come in. i think maybe he had found a heat vent but he was just sitting there just looking inside, so i brought him in, made a little mixture of honey and water and just kept them going for another few weeks and learn about his species. they've got an incredible genome. >> stephen: you had a pet bee? >> i had a pet bee! feels above! [laughs] >> stephen: a rich and interesting life. thank you so much for being here, it was lovely to meet you. "killers of the flower moon" is

democrats agree. conservative republican steve garvey is the wrong choice for the senate. ...our republican opponent here on this stage has voted for donald trump twice. mr. garvey, you voted for him twice... as your own man, what is your decision? garvey is wrong for california. but garvey's surging in the polls. fox news says garvey would be a boost to republican control of the senate. stop garvey. adam schiff for senate. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message.
