Podcast: Philip TeresiPublished On: Thu Feb 19 2026
Description: On Tuesday night’s broadcast of “The Late Show,” Stephen Colbert slammed his home network, CBS, for releasing a statement denying it pulled his interview with Rep. James Talarico off Monday night’s broadcast, a move he says was done without his knowledge. California's High-Speed Rail Authority CEO Ian Choudri will take a leave of absence as the project's board of directors and state transportation agency review the situation surrounding Choudri's alleged domestic violence-related arrest. Chief of Staff Mark Tollefson will temporarily fill in to help with the responsibility of day-to-day decision making of the authority.
