Ben Schwartz has chemistry with literally everyone. The man is walking fun and charisma.
He’s an improv master so that helps for matching the energy of whoever you are with! I agree he’s an amazing guy!
Have you seen him with the Game Grumps? Even the less likely combinations he manages to prove good chemistry
I love it
Was going to say the same
And this is why I have a huge crush on him.
The manic improv energy in this interview is wonderful.
That's EXACTLY how I was going to post... manic improv. You stole my insight.
It's definitely something...
That middleditch and Schwarz improve special is actually amazing!
Ben's excitement over Stephen knowing sonic characters is better advertisement than a clip tbh 🤣
FACTS
This was one of the most fun interviews I've seen in a long ass time. They clearly have chemistry.
Ben knocking the cup off the table, Stephen getting him a new cup, Ben knocking THAT cup off the table, then him grabbing the now broken cup from behind and trying to grab its now broken off handle was just perfect physical comedy the entire way through
This whole interview was fantastic. The almost constant improv, the chemistry, and the sheer amount of fun they seemed to have. I hope Ben gets to come back and maybe even get to do a Flipped Interview with Stephen
Far and away my favorite Colbert late show interview. I feel like he's too in control often, so it's fun to see someone push him on his back foot
100%
Ben Schwartz is the embodiment of chaotic good. Wow, I'm almost tired from watching that amount of energy; perfect person to play Sonic!
Ben Schwartz needs to be everywhere all the time. What a ray of sunshine. I can't get enough
That Ray of sunshine that won't stop hitting your eyes lol
Ben Schwartz is right: he IS Sonic. His comedic stylings is as hilariously annoying as the blue blur himself, and that is just magical to me.
You are a fun guy to hang out with friends don't ya
7:51 Him grabbing the imaginary mug handle was the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time 😂
I straight up lost it when he did that haha
I'm offended this isn't going viral, it's such a perfect interview.
Had no Idea he was Sonic, but let's not forget his excellent role in Space Force!
He was also Sonic in the play.
Great character in the Space Force too,..!
@@Ronariverah And, as we know, in the original podcast.
It's Fuck Tony
I was so sad they didn't mention it. He's literally my favourite character in Space Force
It's little but I love how Ben refers to Colleen O'Shaughnessey (Tails' voice actress) as just "Colleen", when most likely a handful of people in the audience knew who that was. She's not a mainstream name like he or Idris, but Ben's been super supportive of her since the day she was announced to reprise her role and has shown over the months leading up to the movie how much respect he has for her and probably voice actors as a whole (which makes sense given his history in VO). Idk I just thought it was cool, and the fact that she's seemingly gonna get top billing in the movie which isn't usually something voice actors for major movies get is dope as well
It's really sweet how he hypes up Colleen's inclusion every chance he gets, putting her on the same level as Idris Elba and Jim Carrey.
He mentions her so many times that it warms my heart to see Colleen O'Shaughnessey recognized with all these a-list actors. Ben is really cool and proves why he's one of the best sonic we've seen.
As much as I think Ben is a class act, I still can't help but feel that he was miscast to play Sonic. He just doesn't capture Sonic's youthful nature to me.
@@StriderZessei Personally for me, since Sonic is 12 in the first movie and probably no older than 13 in the second, I think it fits really well. While he's still sarcastic and quippy, this time he's an actual child so there's a sense of innocence and childish excitement other versions of Sonic don't have, and I don't think Roger Craig Smith's voice would fit this specific version of the character
@@raynacarraway440 I get that. I just think Roger is better at sounding young than Ben. I seriously had no idea Sonic was supposed to be 12 when I watched the first movie, simply because Ben's child voice is so much older than Roger's teen voice.
At the start of this clip, Stephen has a manic glee in his eyes. It was only when they went into the catchphrase part that I realized he was so excited because he knew he was going to get to tap into his improv roots with Ben soon!
I completely lost it when he shoved the second mug off the desk like a cat that's just discovered gravity.
The passive fights over the objects on the desk is like watching a cat and it's owner XD Loved it.
I f***ing love Ben Schwartz. Love any guest that plays improv bits with Stephen, and the fact Stephen felt comfortable enough to splash water on Ben’s face, lol, you don’t see that chemistry often.
Are we sure that was water? Lol
That’s the kind of guest I would tell the producers to bring back as much as possible.
I have such an infatuation with Schwartz's comedy style. I'll go back and watch interviews for stuff I've already seen or things I've never even heard of. Middleditch and Schwartz was incredible too.
Comedy Bang Bang
Same. I did the same with Middleditch after watching their show.
Watch Ben on Game Grumps! He's fuckin hilarious!
I'd also like to suggest comedy bang bang
Ben Schwartz on the Off Book Podcast. Top-tier must listen. They ad-lib an entire musical.
VERY rarely does Colbert have a guest on that is sharper and faster at comedy than he is.
And this wasn't one of those times.
@@ms0824 I don't know, I feel like this time it was actually the case. At the very least it was a tie.
@@ms0824 Hit the nail on the head, mon ami. Of all the interviews Colbert's even done, this was... er... certainly one of them.
@@grumblycurmudgeon This wasn't just an interview, it was improv. Improv has a chaotic nature that can produce some of the funniest moments, but also some duds here or there. I love Colbert for his interview skills but it was super fun to watch a fantastic improviser keep him on his toes.
I love everything about this interview. It was a total delight!
I truly believe that Ben Schwartz is this generation's Robin Williams, r.i.p.
He's got a character for everything and is a character himself, constantly doing improv in normal conversations, getting along with everyone, and their energy just runs the room. Ben is an amazing comedian and amazing person, and only has uphill to go from here
In the words of John Ralphio, Ben Schwartz is the beeEESTTTT
I couldn't stop laughing that was the most entertaining interview I've ever seen.
I love Ben Schwartz so much. He has a way of absolutely derailing every interview, making each unexpectedly hilarious.
I could watch these two all day long. Their energy is amazing! I love it!
Schwartz embodying Sonic by wearing a blue suit and red shoes was a nice touch
I’m a huge Ben Schwartz fan. I’ve seen practically every late night interview he’s been in. This is by far the best one. His energy is so palpable and I strive to be as charismatic and likable as he is. Damn. I wanna be his best friend.
Ben's energy is so infectious that it usually takes whoever is interviewing along for a ride; I rarely see an interaction with him NOT go off the rails, and I love that. If you haven't watched them: look up the Polygon interviews with Patrick Gill, just insanity
This is maybe one of my favorite interviews of Stephen’s. I love Ben and this was great improv by both of them.
Schwartz is a human version of Sonic! Dude’s all over the place and I love it lol
This interview is a master class of improv, at 4:26 they both say "very dark" in complete unison, down to the intonation.
Ben Schwartz basically just applied to be the host of the Late Show and he absolutely crushed it! 😂 Man that was really funny and actually rivaled Stephen's humour and delivery, I could totally see him as Stephen's successor some day.
Anyone could improve on colbert. An inanimate carbon rod would get more laughs
He reminds me more of Craig Ferguson, he would be an amazing host for the Late, Late show.
I was at the taping in the Ed Sullivan Theatre on March 30, 2022. Those two were hilarious live!!!!
Stephen comes up with the CBS affiliate mug, then Ben tries to pick up the other mug with no handle. Insane one-upmanship improv - a joy to watch
This dude should have been lead guest! 😆
This is the best interview I’ve ever seen.
One of the funniest interviews I have Stephen do in a loooonnggg time...
Both the men are comedy geniuses!!
Ben is a walking masterclass in how to be a talk show guest
This has to be one of the best late night interviews ever
I can't believe this is the 1st time he's with Stephen Colbert. I mean the late Larry King had him twice. I love rejectedjokes. Him in The After party is amazing 😂
I absolutely loved this interview! Please have him back
I was somehow beyond excited that Stephen said Tails. Who needs a clip, he said Tails!! lmao
I think this might be one of my favourite interviews yet on this show. My god
This was one of my favourite interviews ever
He’s great in everything. More recently, he crushed it in Afterparty.
He's literally,
Sonic the Hedgehog.
If ever there was one
Slow down, Mr Hog. You're breaking things
🤣
Always love it when a guest inspires Colbert to go back to his improv roots
I can't reconcile Jean Ralphio being Sonic the Hedgehog.
I thought I was in love with Ben before this interview! Dream boy.
Best interview in a Loooooooong time :)
This is probably the best interview i've seen in a long time, hilarious
Aww. It was sweet of him to shine the spotlight on the pages -- aka future Sonics. Remember where you come from!
Ben is doing the mental trick with Tails to help Stephen get it right. Keeps emphasizing the 'T' sound in the sentences leading up to Stephen answering. Clever for a good interview and very kind to try to make Stephen look good.
He even says "I can't even TELL you how excited I would be." Emphasizing the T and "tell" sounds quite a bit like "tail". Very very clever.
Jean Ralphio, one of the greatest characters of all time!
I loved Ben in space force, it was great to see him with Stephan bouncing off each other, comedy gold.
this is literally probably the funniest late night interview thing I've ever seen, i love this guy
I’m a major Ryan Drummond fan. And when I heard Ben’s voice as Sonic for the first time, It was jubilation. He is absolutely wonderful.
Ben's chaotic energy is everything
I have never commented on any videos, but I just had to say that if I could only pick one actor to watch….. it’d be Ben Shwartz. I love the guy in literally everything that he’s in.. my FAVORITE actor in d world…. Hands down I freaking love this guy
The only thing missing from this interview is a big blue button that makes a “boing” sound effect whenever Ben finishes answering a question.
Needs more Patrick.
@@PersonalPariah Agreed! *Boing*
I would watch a buddy movie with these guys for hours
I smiled throw out the whole thing! I bit stressed about how Colbert was really feeling, but entertained!!,.. 😆
Not even kidding, this might be my favourite interview Stephen's ever done
i laughed so hard, i need more Ben and Stephen teamups!!!
I was thinking about going to see Sonic and after seeing how delightful Ben is, I'm certain that I will♥️♥️
I genuinely can't tell if this was a fun interview of spiraling "yes, and" madness or a Mortal Kombat deathmatch between two bitter foes desperate to land a killing blow.
Haha Well said
It was a crazy Rollercoaster. I actually think he was so in Colbert's face from the get go (I'm sure Ben was ecstatic to spar with a role model) , it threw Steven's vibe off because his show is so cookie cutter predictable now. Eventually you could see a moment when Stephen remembered it was all about the fun though and it ended up fantastically funny. I lost it at the broken handle mug gesture.
Every interview on late night shows should aspire to be like this one. Couldn’t stop laughing 😂
I could watch this duo every night.
"I wish we had time for the clip!"
"What-? Oh NO, Paramount's gonna KILL me!"
ben schwartz needs to be on every talk show from now until the end of time
His voice is so unique man but amazing voice actor for SONIC
His Netflix improv show is so good. Middleditch and Ben have such good chemistry
One of the best interviews on late night in a long time.
So good. Late night god tier.
The bits literally never ended and it was gold.
This was so much fun to watch! Love this kind of improv
Ben is so charming 💕 love him so much
THIS WAS INCREDIBLE! My god just so much fun. Love these two human beings!
Omg I love Ben Schwartz now. I mean I've seen him in TV shows but without a script, he's even funnier and has such good energy. Man this was one of the best interviews I've ever seen! So much fun to watch
I don't know that I've ever seen Stephen have this much fun during an interview
I've only seen him in Parks and Rec but every Ben Schwartz interview I watch is the best Ben Schwartz interview.
Do yourself a favor and watch more of his ish
So much chaotic genius in this interview - haven’t laughed so much in a while
Watching Stephen Colbert TRY to contain Schwartz's energy is just amazing.
I loved this so much. Definitely what was needed this deary Thursday morning!!!!!
Colbert never ceases to impress me. His improv chops are amazing.
I love how he said in the beginning the interview was gonna go wrong, it’s almost as he was decided to cause such a chaotic energy mess.
But again, it’s Ben, I don’t know why I’m surprised.
Edit: Can we talk about those socks tho? They’re awesome.
Best interview I have ever seen in my life.
Ben Schwartz always does amazing interviews
I Love Ben Schwartz So Much Been a Fan of His for 2 Years Now Since The First Sonic Movie!
same 😃
@@ladyroselindark8337 Nice and I Would Love to Meet Ben Schwartz Someday!
This is, hands down, the funniest interview I have EVER SEEN 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️🤣😂😂
The way Stephen splashed the water on his face was hilarious
The 1st Colbert interview I have watched twice...immediately. Well done, sirs. Well done.
What delightful chaos.
This was Colbert's best interview since Nicki Minaj. I had to pause and rewind a few times it was so funny and I missed the jokes while laughing
Never an unfunny interview with Ben! We need more episodes of Middleditch and Schwartz lol
Ben needs to win that Emmy for The Afterparty!!!
That blue hedgehog again, of all places!
Stephen is simply amazing! Let’s all just face it!!
Can’t go wrong with Ben
