We have a great lineup today for Fortune Live, our weekly business show hosted by assistant managing editor Leigh Gallagher.

Fortune digital editor Aaron Task and senior writer Michal Lev-Ram kick us off discussing the week’s news: the Supreme Court nomination of Merrick Garland, the markets bouncing back, and the latest on Apple’s ongoing battle with the FBI.

Paypal co-founder Max Levchin discusses his stance on start-up visas and immigration.

It’s tax season and William Cobb, the President & CEO of H&R Block, is here next to talk about the latest innovations for doing your taxes.

We then meet the eco-friendly wood decking company Trex, that’s profiting off the trash from Wal-Mart, J.C. Penney’s and other major retailers.

Our host is joined next by Anthony Wood, founder & CEO of Roku in our segment Fortune’s Fast Five.

Leigh Gallagher and Michal Lev-Ram then talk women in comedy with Stephanie Laing, former executive producer of HBO’s “Veep” and the founder of PYPO.

Television producer Glen Mazzara, former show-runner of The Walking Dead, talks lack of diversity in the writer’s room.

To close out the show, we break down this week’s numbers.

The full show and breakout segments will be available to watch on demand after the show concludes. You can find them at fortune.com/fortunelive.
