Cannot find the links to these incredible interviews.

Hi all! I have tickets for the 10/24 taping and it looks like they excluded that day from the guest list release. In your experience does that mean it’s either a huge name or can it be the show is going to be cancelled that night?

That shit would totally rule right?

A dear friend and coworker of mine who passed away this spring absolutely loved the “blown away by the USA - Who’s riding my coattails now” bit from April 21, 2009 - it’s Colbert mocking a senators patriotic album

She would always sing “I thank god for freedom, beef and the constitution” and it took me ages to find the episode it was from- I’d play it from time to time on the Comedy Central website just for a laugh and to remind me of her

I’m not tech savvy and can’t seem to find any site legal or not that has the clip and I don’t know how to do any fancy torrent or downloading

Does anyone have the clip of this segment or know a link to this episode? 😢 season 5 episode 53, the guest is Mike kryzewski

update: FOUND! a literal angel sent me a message and helped track it down im so so grateful to know this wonderfully stupid bit is still in the world 😭thank you thank you thank you!

That's all.

I’ve been watching late night shows on YouTube the day the air for quite some time. In the last 2 weeks there have been 0 new videos out. It’s weird, I know there is not a strike going on. Anyone know why?!

I'm just curious on what episode he did that face on. Nothing weird or anything.

I came across a few and the jokes still land and its really fucking funny but I would love to watch starting at Season 1

I don't know if this is a fever dream or not but I definitely remember an episode with two ladies on the show, and Stephen Colbert grabbed one and suddenly kissed her.

I saw it when I was in my early teens, thinking it was weird, and I remember mom gasping. For reference, this would've been during his 1 800 OOPS JEW phase.

I doubt Colbert has any intention to do something like this again, but I still feel it's important to confirm whether or not this happened. Does anyone have any links?

It's kind of depressing, he used to have an edge and tackle the tough stuff, now it's almost all movie stars and when he does have a political figure on it's all soft & gentle, like his kid gloves interview w Liz Cheney.

I know that this murderous orgy of revenge killing and carpet bombing of civilians that is going on in Gaza is difficult to know how to approach for many reasons but just pretending it's not happening so you don't offend your advertisers is, well, cowardly.

Now that John Stewart is retired, Stephen has evolved into a mainstream soft jocular typical late night host and Bill Maher has gone libertarian/MAGA there's nobody out there pushing the edges of progressive political humor anymore.

Anyone out there seeing any fresh, sharp, edgy comedians we should keep an eye on? Because there is a huge vacuum right now, and at a time when we really need someone like the old Stephen and John to step up and take the mantle.

I'm looking for the clip, "The Colbert Report: Untaint My Shrimp" from April 19, 2010. Yes, it's specific, but it made me laugh so hard that I cried, and my 13yo just learned what the taint is so now I need to show that clip to him so he can laugh so hard he cries too. I was massively pregnant with him when that clip aired, and I feel like it's come full circle.

It's not on the CC site, not on YouTube, and it's not on Prime. I could barely even find a reference to it and thought I was imagining the whole thing when I found a reference in a random article on Eater.com. Can anyone link me? Help me make my kid laugh until his stomach hurts.

I'm thinking about downloading old The Daily Show and CR and syncing them so I can watch them like I used to do but I have a feeling it isn't going to that great with all the old news

Just wondering if anyone watches old episodes are they still entertaining?

So, I thought I knew what Greg Daniels looked like, but just saw a pic of him and he is not the person I am thinking in my head. I have been scouring sites all night and I can't place this particular actor/host's name- who I thought was Greg Daniels. In my brain, he has maybe hosted The Daily Show or Colbert or something like that but is mostly behind the scenes. This person looks a lot like Steven Weber (will include a pic of Steven) but the person I am thinking of is NOT Steven Weber, he just looks similar. And no, it is not John Stewert either. I don't know if it is the Mandela Effect in my head but this whole time, I thought this person was Greg Daniels! Sort of shaggy dirty blonde hair, sort of longer like Steven Weber's hair from Mom. Who am I thinking of????

Hello all, I have this very specific memory of a Colbert Report clip from probably a decade ago, the whole joke is he reads the first line of A Tale of Two Cities ("it was the best of times") and then starts celebrating how great the times are because he didn't read ahead to the next line ("it was the worst of times). I don't remember what year this was or what point he was trying to prove but if anyone knows what I'm talking about I really want to find it.

I remember an interview where the guy was talking about biology and psychology and parental upbringing and one of the things he talked about was how presidents tended to have one stable parent and one missing parent or one unstable parent. I think it was from late 2013 or early 2014. Does anyone remember who the guest was?

Matt Gaetz will be speaking at a high school near me next week. Below is the email that I sent the superintendent. All I have are my vote and my voice, It's past time I start utilizing both.

Good evening,

I would like to voice my concern about the upcoming "Academy Night" at Niceville High School. As I understand it, this is an informational meeting where students interested in the service academies can meet with Matt Gaetz. I understand that in order to apply for service academies, students need a nomination from their representative, senator, or the vice president. The students NEED his endorsement, and there is nothing that your office can do about that, which again, I fully understand. 

Matt Gaetz is under federal investigation for having sex with a 17 year old girl (the news keeps calling this sex with a minor. In Florida, the age of consent is 18, so this isn't just "sex with a minor". That's rape.) and paying for her to travel across state lines, violating sex-trafficking laws.

It is absolutely vile that the school system would invite someone currently under investigation for rape and sex-trafficking into the school to speak to 17 year old girls and put them in a position where they have to ask him for a favor. This investigation has been ongoing for a long time, so the county has had plenty of time to come up with an alternative to allowing him to speak at the school. Any information he needs to give out can easily be done via email, or even a Zoom call with interested students and their parents. 

It seems to me that the school system should not allow someone under investigation for sex with minors anywhere near a school, if for no other reason than out of an abundance of caution. Instead, however, you are quite literally giving him access to potential new victims, and directing them to ask him for something. I would think that the safety of students would be a top priority for Okaloosa County, but this decision leads me to believe otherwise. If a teacher is under federal investigation for sex with a student, does that teacher stay in the classroom teaching while the investigation is ongoing? I’m fairly certain I know the answer. 

Thank you for taking these concerns into consideration. 

Hello All,

About 7 years back another redditor compiled a full archive of the Colbert Report. That torrent has no seeders. Does anyone out there have the files and if so, can you share them or seed the current torrent? I would really love to add this to my collection.
