Anybody else here feel like all that we need during this pandemic to calm down is a good live stream of Jon Batiste on the piano? Seriously couldn't have been calmed more at the end of that video. Perfect. Jon needs a Twitch Stream!
Exactly what we need. I'm really disappointed that the other Funny Folk's of the Late night shows are trying to do something like this. I mean re-runs really aren't cutting it for me. ✌💖🙏🇨🇦
16:35 As someone living outside of the USA and watching regularly Stephen Colbert on TH-cam, I can now confidently say we see (and hear!!) way, way too little from Jon Batiste and Stay Human. Such a beautiful performance! CBS, if you're reading this - give us youtubers more of #JonBatiste!
I agree. We TH-camrs miss out on almost all of Jon and Stay Human's performances. We only get the walk-in music for the guests, and a very very rare Jon video, but never the full performances that Stay Human gives for the studio audience. In these hard times we need more Stay Human !!!
There is something absolutely refreshing about this format. It’s like hearing a raw acoustic rendition of a song that is usually over produced. Stephen & Jon are inviting us to their home, on their porch, in their living room, getting together like old friends. Jon’s piece at the end was amazing and makes you realize they should really keep doing things like this when things go back to [almost] “normal“
These Stephen unplugged things are really clobbering me with memories from 30 years ago. I worked alongside Stephen in a Chicago restaurant, and this is like having him next to all of us at a wait staff meeting, and Stephen freely associating and bringing us to tears. These are very precious glimpses of that magic many years ago.
I really have to applaud this. When the other shows have gone to the bunkers, they've figured out a way to hunker down and still produce something. Creativity shines more through restrictions. I don't know how many they'll be able to make, but I will enjoy these while I can.
I clicked like the second I saw the thumbnail of John. Thank you for the laughs, but even more for demonstrating that a little creativity can lighten our situation.
It only took an economy destroying global pandemic of historic proportions to get the monologue + interview in 1 video on youtube instead of 3 fucking goddamn motherfucking 5 minute long short videos!
I really appreciate that he's doing this, he doesn't have to. Everything is shutting down but we still have Colbert. Thanks, man. Edit: Jon fucking killed it...
@Will Pack ~ DT isn't even rich. Well, he wasn't before he started dealing out of the WH, charging everything to taxpayers and raking all that $$ in. Agreed, some ppl hate everyone w/$$, but to me it's all abt what you do w/it, how you got it, and what you do to keep it (or not).
"He doesn't have to", yes, right, this virus has mutated into a joke. They can all pretend to be a couple of heroes who make sacrifices for the benefit of mankind. Pathetic people.
I love that Stephen and his team are still putting out content. I'm currently on lock down in Italy, and the normalcy that Late Show videos bring is appreciated. I hope the Late Show team are staying safe, and know how these videos are keeping me, and likely many others, sane.
I"m enjoying seeing more of Jon and his being more able to show his personality rather than just yessing and laughing at Stephen's jokes. I find I'm liking him more and more, the more I see of him. I hope no one reads this as me implying there's any sort of racist motive behind the usual dynamic on The Late Show - there's not, and I'm not. Jon's role is the same as many people's roles have been in this format of show. It's just nice to see more of him.
You’re providing an unbelievably valuable service by showing the importance of social distancing. You are so familiar to so many, that the message will hit home. God bless you.
You make a good point. Great observation, because seeing how someone else does it will have people realizing how they can do it and still interact with each other.
Damn that John Baptiste solo at the end was absolutely killer. Gotta say, there are at least *some* upsides to being quarantined if it means we get some quality content like this!
@@lucasmiller2456 Hashtag me too! That was incredible, it's no wonder Stephen worked so hard to get Jon to come on board when he took over as host. The guy is a phenom.
Have to say, I am kinda liking these jerry-rigged monologues - they've got that vibe of rehearsals and just having fun that takes me back to uni. Good going guys.
This maybe the most impactful piece of programming I’ve ever seen. The idea that we live in a different world completely settled in during this experience. Some of the funniest most brilliant natural presentation these days. Such an interesting perspective.
You should have seen and heard him as the featured performer on Live From Here. Amazing talent on full display. Unrelated, what's with the no-name piano he's playing on at home? I expected to see "Steinway & Sons."

Absolutely. Also, he's a musician, he's probably been practicing self-isolation for the better part of his twenties anyway, he could probably give some advice lol
@@BuiltDownLogically I've heard worse. Couple days ago, I watched a video log of a guy going on a fossil dig, and you could barely make out what anybody was saying.
A mansion like that closest neighbour is like a fifty yards or so away. So no way they could hear him. Now more than ever, I know why Colbert was never a fan of Bernie's policies.
How do you know it came from a bat bite, and not from impoverished Chinese person eating one, or fucking one? I don't usually agree with the term "liberal snowflake" but... good riddance, Stephen.
@Sly Eurochild wins the Internet for identifying the tune: ‘It's the signature song of Jon and the band. Entitled I'm from Kenner"'. There are two pleasingly ramshackle versions on Jon Batiste's live MY N.Y. album with Stay Human.
Not if you live in a shi*hole compared to them, are overpaying on rent for a flat with no bedroom, no amenities, and on the edge of a medium sized city, not downtown. Rent $700!

Man I always knew Jon Batiste was a world class talent, but watching him absolutely tear up those keys with that effortless smile on his face really drives it home
I'm so glad to still get content from Stephen Colbert. This is top level entertainment...Jon Batiste's piano skills are mesmerizing. Y'all are fantastic!
I did not expect to dissolve into tears during breakfast when I usually watch clips of Colbert from the night before. When the lovely Jon appeared in the right corner and played from his own piano....... it sort of broke my heart and lifted my spirits. Where this a will there is a way. Thank you, Stephen & staff. Bless you, Jon. _/*\_

That is the joy of exploration and wonder. You can do it! Just get a keyboard and PLAY (it is play after all...have fun!)
@@Kryptospotted did some quick research - not sure but I think it's called Express Yourself? or I Feel Good I Feel Free? and John wrote it. th-cam.com/video/HKnr8ovQP1g/w-d-xo.html
Well Hayls... I've got good news for you! th-cam.com/users/jonbatistemusic (if that link doesn't work, just search for the user: Jon Batiste Music. He's actually a REALLY good piano player (unlike Sorry Suzy might want you to believe), and only BARELY shows off his skills on The Late Show!
Jon is the true definition of the word "gifted". My God, the guy did all that while simultaneously smiling and looking into the camera. My prayers go out to both of them. Thanks for keeping the show going you guys!
These videos feel like a throwback to Colbert before the late night show. I’m so glad you’re giving these to us!!! Stay safe everyone!!!! Stay home!!!! We’ve got this!!!!
Nicholas Fitzsimons I understand what you mean. I’m aware of his origins in cable television, I was referring to late night TV on a national network. Feels like more of the satirist of old. Either way I’m not here to split hairs. Best of luck to you and yours, we’re re all rooting for each other.
Love Stephen for still putting on a show and making us laugh through everything. He doesn't have to and it's so nice to see him. Also, DAMN Jon earned every single paycheck this show has ever written him and more! More Jon please! I loved hearing him shred! ❤
Hell yeah! In their regular setting Jon's antics often come across as scriped or forced, but here his natural talent and charm really shine through. I would not say no to him if he gave me that cheeky look while serenading me...
@@theodorherzl4695 Sadly, nothing surprises me anymore. I thought I'd heard it all, then found out my favourite childhood clown was a total bastard who left his own brother penniless on his deathbed to go rake in the cash with a new partner. Has the world always been like this, or are these the signs of our times?
@Sumayah Baloch Judging on how much he talks about stress cooking and baking he seems like he'll be a nice neighbour who brings over cookies or something
This made me realize two things: that comedy is better with a live audience, and that we need to bring back fireside chats. The world may be ending, but this is incredibly calming
Not with comedy. I really do enjoy this, but the timing just seems off. Jokes either hang awkwardly in the air, or just get lost with the speed. I also feel like there's just less energy here because Colbert gets off on performing and bantering with the audience, in a non-sexual way. That being said, this as a medium of news is nice. Like a lot of people on here, I can't watch the news because it makes me angry, anxious and hopeless. The fact that it's delivered by a guy wearing a suit and a full face of makeup surrounded by blaring headlines of unrelated murders and terrorist attacks scrolling rapidly across the bottom of the screen makes it worse. I just want my buddy Steve to tell me what's going on while we sit around his firepit. No distractions, no sense of alienation.
Bernie's a cool dude. Whether or not you agree with him, you know he does what he does because it's what he believes is going to help people. I'm glad he's talking to everyone.
@@anactualotter6216 I agree with you, but so far Colbert's jokes are packing punches, even compared to the "Jimmys", if I may.. :-) you are so right on though, Stay safe!
I was thinking: "oh, thank God Jon Batiste has a piano in his home" and then I realized if anyone was going to have a piano at home it's probably Jon Batiste.
@@stevenk9466 Yeah, I don't want to know how many watch this that get their piano regularily tuned and then watch someone with millions of viewers and an untuned piano ;) It adds to the rustic end-times charm, though... maybe it is on purpose?
@@tobias3ify It could be the "charm factor". I can't count the jazz albums I have where the recording studio's piano is horribly out of tune. No matter how much I yell at the album (recorded 50 years ago) "Tune your damn piano!", it remains out of tune. Still, the music is awesome. (Heck, I have a Charlie Parker album where he was playing with a broken saxophone and, as always, he kills.)
I actually like this format! It’s like talking with a friend, or as many have pointed out, it’s like us small channels who work with whatever stuff we got to make content! It’s strangely wholesome.
bless this man's commitment to looking after the invisible props. He's going to have to take those back to the studio when this is over, and they're hard to keep track of
I have been thinking about the same thing and these are the times where you get to see who is truly talented because truly talented people can take challenges and turn them into opportunities to show different sides of themselves. Seeing this side of Colbert is lovely and makes me wish you would be a true TH-camr! Can you imagine his Vlog Channel! I wonder what he's like as a dad and stuff I bet it's very interesting
I wonder what his neighbors are thinking 😂 “is he filming a national show in his backyard!?” Love it. Thank you for keeping us entertained. I’m currently stuck in a bedroom and all I have is TH-cam. Who thinks Netflix should allow people to use their service for free during the quarantine?
meanwhile Switzerland considers switching off Netflix during peak time cause the digital infrastructure can't handle all the calls and video-conferencing and cloud usage thats suddenly happening with all the working from home (which I assume is not actually called 'home office'(-ing) in English cause all results that ar not about The Home Office in the UK are in German)
Oh my God, this is peak work-at-home. I don't want this to happen often, but this Quarantine edition feels like a triumph of technology, creativity and productivity.
Jon Batiste is a legend. Can we please talk about how the tune he's playing, which is what they use for transitions on the show, is straight up "The Gonk" from Dawn of the Dead?!?!
@@joeistead Thanks mate...I didn't know he already has a TH-cam channel...Maybe I should have just googled it first...Anyways Thanks again for the link...Subscribed already...
Jon Baptiste!!!!!! I’m so glad he was in this. Makes it feel like...we have hope? I mean I know civilization will be fine. But it’s comforting to me when things that are a regular part of my routine are available. Also, does Stephen have a teleprompter? I kind of love the idea that he’s got a family member holding up sheets of printer paper with scripts scrawled on them 😂
Jon is so cute playing his piano lol. It’s interesting to see how the late night hosts are dealing with this situation. It’s certainly rough, but inspiring how dedicated they are to their craft. They’re using a lot of creative energy keep us all connected and I’m grateful to them, without John Oliver, Trever Noah, Ellen, and Stephen I for one would feel more alone right now. I’ve never appreciated TH-cam the way I do today. Stay safe, and keep your spirits up everyone. In time this will pass, and collectively we will have learned something more about the world we live in and the human ability to adapt and change.
Same, never realized it until this video. I would've gladly listened to ten more minutes of him playing. Fingers crossed he gets more time when they go back to the studio!
My question too.It sounds like something original but it has a New Orleans vibe to it. Thanks, editors, for letting John Baptiste play a long stretch. We are aware and we love all of you. Gracias.
"Covidia, Purell and their friend Tony Beefaroni." Okay. This had some great jokes in it. Edit: " they won't need to embalm me because I'm as cured as a Virginia ham right now." 2nd Edit: I love Jon Batiste, he is an international treasure.
Just when we thought Stephen had deserted the airwaves, we found the TH-cam ON LINE ! THANKYOU, THANKYOU, THANKYOU STEPHEN AND CBS ! YOUR STILL HERE. WILL ALWAYS WATCH! David Watson and Family Black Mountain, NC
One at home segment could be “Extremely awkward conversations with my teenage kids who don’t want to be on camera with me.” 😉 I mean, icing on the cake/cherry on top, right? Haha! Love these quarantine shows. Thanks for keeping us laughing.
This popped up for me again now in December 2023. I went through breast cancer treatment during early 2020 and these shows kept me going when I was so sick from chemo and quarantining with my husband and girls. Love these two!❤

@@JohnPaul-yf9xdI'm sure you think you're very clever but your response makes even less sense.

I'm so glad to still get content from Stephen Colbert. This is top level entertainment...Jon Batiste's piano skills are mesmerizing. Y'all are fantastic!
Yeah. Isn't a little too good? Like it was "Make a Wish" foundation's dream request for a dying American Repulic
John is sooo talented! He brings such joy with his passion.
Stay homin :)
John?
I did not expect to dissolve into tears during breakfast when I usually watch clips of Colbert from the night before. When the lovely Jon appeared in the right corner and played from his own piano....... it sort of broke my heart and lifted my spirits.
Where this a will there is a way. Thank you, Stephen & staff.
Bless you, Jon. _/*\_
Mame McKee - 👍👍👍👍😄
Same!👏👏👏
Love the bottle of Purell on his piano! 🤣
Absolutely love these home-filmed monologues! And Jon’s solo at the end was gorgeous.
I wonder what his neighbors are saying...
“Oh boy, There goes that crazy man shouting to himself in his back yard again!”😥
Jon Lava :🤣🤣🤣🤣 you should do standup....that is very funny!!!
🤣
Nah they're like...oh look it's f***in Colbert again...damn this quarantine!
Mark... he's DOING it again
Maarrtthha...he's singing again.
Particularly enjoyed Jon’s piano playing.
ya me too - felt like a little glimpse of what the audience sees when they go to commercial
Love the bottle of piano purel.
@@piepirate4u For before and after tinkling
the keys
Me too. Time to get piano lessons.
@@moragwilliamson1736 Lessons can come later! Just get a keyboard and explore! Train your ear, find the notes you recognize, and most importantly: make accidents and then repeat them! That is the joy of exploration and wonder. You can do it! Just get a keyboard and PLAY (it is play after all...have fun!)
John's piece at the end was fantastic. I'm glad that they're still putting out something from home.
Clea * I just found this th-cam.com/video/HKnr8ovQP1g/w-d-xo.html
do we know the name of that piece at the end?
@@lafeeshmeister I really want to know too.
@@Kryptospotted did some quick research - not sure but I think it's called Express Yourself? or I Feel Good I Feel Free? and John wrote it.

I didn’t realize how good Jon Batiste is on piano. Wow! Strip down to just him on piano and one can really see his technique and musicianship. Bravo!
Best thing about quarantine so far has been hearing Jon's piano solo!
james allred - agree ❤️ 👍 👏 🙏 😊
Yes this times 1,000!
what was the song that he was playing at the end?
Right?! I would honestly just put that on repeat in the background for the rest of the day
We need a Jon Batiste channel of just him jamming on his piano. He's fantastic!
Hes pretty average, there are many much better.
@@suzesiviter6083 I bet you're fun at parties...
@@suzesiviter6083 Envy is an ugly suit my man.
Well Hayls... I've got good news for you!
th-cam.com/users/jonbatistemusic (if that link doesn't work, just search for the user: Jon Batiste Music. He's actually a REALLY good piano player (unlike Sorry Suzy might want you to believe), and only BARELY shows off his skills on The Late Show!
What song is he playing at the end? It's so familiar and I just can't quite place it.
Jon is the true definition of the word "gifted". My God, the guy did all that while simultaneously smiling and looking into the camera. My prayers go out to both of them. Thanks for keeping the show going you guys!
My favourite thing about this video: the cameraperson's occasional quiet laugh
Jon Batiste's home looks so serene...just lovely!! More segments with him playing the piano, please!
I would totally buy an album of him playing songs from classic movies like Pure Imagination, On Golden Pond, and stuff like that.
He's got some stride chops going toward the end! Very nice!
Do you know the name of the last song he played?
I agree. It's not enough!
@@flowertrue I swooned with Pure Imagination!
This is so calming, it's like hanging out with friends
Shayor Hamid yes I agree!! Plus the piano at the end was bomb
Change the toilet paper roll when is done!
Other word:boring.
These videos feel like a throwback to Colbert before the late night show. I’m so glad you’re giving these to us!!! Stay safe everyone!!!! Stay home!!!! We’ve got this!!!!
👍✌💚🍀🍻🙏
🇨🇦KEH
the stephen colBEARD video was one of the best things he's ever made!
I get what you're saying but it's funny to me 'cause Colbert started in TV. Low-budget youtube videos weren't even around when he started.
Nicholas Fitzsimons I understand what you mean. I’m aware of his origins in cable television, I was referring to late night TV on a national network. Feels like more of the satirist of old. Either way I’m not here to split hairs. Best of luck to you and yours, we’re re all rooting for each other.
Love Stephen for still putting on a show and making us laugh through everything. He doesn't have to and it's so nice to see him. Also, DAMN Jon earned every single paycheck this show has ever written him and more!
More Jon please! I loved hearing him shred! ❤
Love that there is a bottle of hand sanitizer on Jon’s piano. He’s a great piano player too. Handsome dude.
Hell yeah! In their regular setting Jon's antics often come across as scriped or forced, but here his natural talent and charm really shine through. I would not say no to him if he gave me that cheeky look while serenading me...
Get ready to see him arrested for his connection to Epstein and Podesta
You have incredible observation skills. Stay safe.
@@theodorherzl4695 Hehe, he's not creepy enough 4 that...
@@theodorherzl4695 Sadly, nothing surprises me anymore. I thought I'd heard it all, then found out my favourite childhood clown was a total bastard who left his own brother penniless on his deathbed to go rake in the cash with a new partner. Has the world always been like this, or are these the signs of our times?
Damn, Jon can play the piano. Those last few minutes were a ray of sunshine today.
That was great. He kept it pretty simple, but there's so much personality and life in his playing.
I imagine Stephen's kids are in the house rolling their eyes.
Jennifer Alexander they're working on those committment papers.
O...M...G.... DAAAAAAAAAAD! GAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
@M Detlef ew. No
"I don't get why he's famous..." - His Kids, probably.
I'm sure his family is walking around the house shaking their heads and glad he's home.
Colbert & Batiste's music are my daily detox! Thanks for staying on air guys!
imagine looking out your backyard window and seeing your neighbor do his late night talk show.
I would love that
You'd probably be another rich elitist liberal anti-american scum bag, just like Colbert.
@Sumayah Baloch Judging on how much he talks about stress cooking and baking he seems like he'll be a nice neighbour who brings over cookies or something
This segment was great from him coughing nearly gagging to the barking dogs the birds chirping batiste playing piano to his little flip phone case 😂
This made me realize two things: that comedy is better with a live audience, and that we need to bring back fireside chats. The world may be ending, but this is incredibly calming
On god
Bernie did a fireside chat just a few days ago.
Not with comedy. I really do enjoy this, but the timing just seems off. Jokes either hang awkwardly in the air, or just get lost with the speed. I also feel like there's just less energy here because Colbert gets off on performing and bantering with the audience, in a non-sexual way.
That being said, this as a medium of news is nice. Like a lot of people on here, I can't watch the news because it makes me angry, anxious and hopeless. The fact that it's delivered by a guy wearing a suit and a full face of makeup surrounded by blaring headlines of unrelated murders and terrorist attacks scrolling rapidly across the bottom of the screen makes it worse. I just want my buddy Steve to tell me what's going on while we sit around his firepit. No distractions, no sense of alienation.
Bernie's a cool dude. Whether or not you agree with him, you know he does what he does because it's what he believes is going to help people. I'm glad he's talking to everyone.
@@anactualotter6216 I agree with you, but so far Colbert's jokes are packing punches, even compared to the "Jimmys", if I may.. :-) you are so right on though, Stay safe!
Jon Batiste is a super talent and is a genius on the keyboard/piano. So inspiring.
Literally phoning it in and still killing it.
I’m just imagining being one of Stevens neighbors, looking out the window at him sitting at a bonfire and doing a one sided duet of Danny Boy. 😂
They must be used to it by now. 😂
A bunch of people have made the same exact statement about his neighbors.
I was thinking: "oh, thank God Jon Batiste has a piano in his home" and then I realized if anyone was going to have a piano at home it's probably Jon Batiste.
It does need tuning, though.
@@stevenk9466 Yeah, I don't want to know how many watch this that get their piano regularily tuned and then watch someone with millions of viewers and an untuned piano ;)
It adds to the rustic end-times charm, though... maybe it is on purpose?
@@tobias3ify It could be the "charm factor". I can't count the jazz albums I have where the recording studio's piano is horribly out of tune. No matter how much I yell at the album (recorded 50 years ago) "Tune your damn piano!", it remains out of tune. Still, the music is awesome. (Heck, I have a Charlie Parker album where he was playing with a broken saxophone and, as always, he kills.)
And hand sanitizer at the ready.
@@stevenk9466 The piano tuner is working from home.
The end of this episode really highlights the skills of Jon Batiste. He's a pretty brilliant musician I have to say.
I actually like this format! It’s like talking with a friend, or as many have pointed out, it’s like us small channels who work with whatever stuff we got to make content! It’s strangely wholesome.
A Mr Rogers vibe of being very 1 on 1
We now know what Colbert's retirement podcast will look like 😂
I've surprised they got have better home cameras but otherwise agreed :D
bless this man's commitment to looking after the invisible props. He's going to have to take those back to the studio when this is over, and they're hard to keep track of
Did not realize but John Batiste has a really nice vocals! Let's have a musical segment everyday!
This is how late night hosts turn into TH-camrs over night. Now he's recording with an iPhone in his backyard...
and no wind screen hahahah that was delightfully lowbudg
I have been thinking about the same thing and these are the times where you get to see who is truly talented because truly talented people can take challenges and turn them into opportunities to show different sides of themselves. Seeing this side of Colbert is lovely and makes me wish you would be a true TH-camr! Can you imagine his Vlog Channel! I wonder what he's like as a dad and stuff I bet it's very interesting
clumsiii Pretty sure thats what he was always doing.
yes
Is it even an iphone? I gotta think any modern phone gonna look better than that.
I wonder what his neighbors are thinking 😂 “is he filming a national show in his backyard!?” Love it. Thank you for keeping us entertained. I’m currently stuck in a bedroom and all I have is TH-cam. Who thinks Netflix should allow people to use their service for free during the quarantine?
meanwhile Switzerland considers switching off Netflix during peak time cause the digital infrastructure can't handle all the calls and video-conferencing and cloud usage thats suddenly happening with all the working from home (which I assume is not actually called 'home office'(-ing) in English cause all results that ar not about The Home Office in the UK are in German)
Get someone's password 😁
Always
😂 So TRUE.
Anakiana now one realizes this is how fucked everything’s bouta get
Oh my God, this is peak work-at-home. I don't want this to happen often, but this Quarantine edition feels like a triumph of technology, creativity and productivity.
Jon Batiste is a legend. Can we please talk about how the tune he's playing, which is what they use for transitions on the show, is straight up "The Gonk" from Dawn of the Dead?!?!
It is starting to feel like Colbert is our dad and we are hanging out at home for Thanksgiving.
I love that Stephen Colbert is basically becoming a low-budget TH-camr to keep his show going. Kudos, sir.
I hope everyone who makes this show knows how much I appreciate them
Petition for Jon to have his own TH-cam channel for playing incredible calming soothing tunes on his 🎹🎹🎹...
th-cam.com/users/jonbatistemusic
@@joeistead Thanks mate...I didn't know he already has a TH-cam channel...Maybe I should have just googled it first...Anyways Thanks again for the link...Subscribed already...
This is brimming with that old school TH-cam energy.
Jon Baptiste!!!!!! I’m so glad he was in this. Makes it feel like...we have hope? I mean I know civilization will be fine. But it’s comforting to me when things that are a regular part of my routine are available.
Also, does Stephen have a teleprompter? I kind of love the idea that he’s got a family member holding up sheets of printer paper with scripts scrawled on them 😂
Batiste #WithLove
Sounds like a female chuckling behind the camera so at a minimum his wife? Not sure how old his kids are.
JB is the best.
Would love if they'd hold one upside-down for him! :D
The escapism the internet can give humanity in times like these are priceless
Jon is so cute playing his piano lol. It’s interesting to see how the late night hosts are dealing with this situation. It’s certainly rough, but inspiring how dedicated they are to their craft. They’re using a lot of creative energy keep us all connected and I’m grateful to them, without John Oliver, Trever Noah, Ellen, and Stephen I for one would feel more alone right now. I’ve never appreciated TH-cam the way I do today. Stay safe, and keep your spirits up everyone. In time this will pass, and collectively we will have learned something more about the world we live in and the human ability to adapt and change.
Jimmy Fallon too. I like him and Trevor. Not this dude
Conan is the best at it tbh. Comes natural to him.
"Jon how are you staying calm?" Dude is the calmest guy I know of...
Dude, I never realized how damn good Jon is on the piano. They gotta give that guy more time during regular programming to flex his skill.
Same, never realized it until this video. I would've gladly listened to ten more minutes of him playing. Fingers crossed he gets more time when they go back to the studio!
Well was (and still is) one of the top jazz musicians when he joined the show.
It was horrible, but tastes differ.
Yeah man, same. He has great technique and musicianship.
He spends a lot of time twiddling throughout the shows at least. :)
16:18 to hear John’s solo again cuz that I need some uplifting music like that right now
Isn't he the best!!
I'm so happy they put him in, he's amazing💯 Never get tired of seeing or hearing him
He is Awesome! And while enjoying the music, I kept looking at that bottle of Purell on top of the 🎹. 😂😂
What song was that???
My question too.It sounds like something original but it has a New Orleans vibe to it. Thanks, editors, for letting John Baptiste play a long stretch. We are aware and we love all of you. Gracias.
"I see one door knob" LMFAO why am I laughing so much at this?
Jon’s piano playing at the end is sooo gooood
The real fire was Jon on the keys at the end.
Stephen is just a consummate entertainer. And John is such a genius with that piano!!
Jon, a talented young musician who dont drink. A truly legend.
I love how this has crazy drunk uncle ranting during a barbecue vibes but it's a broadcast talkshow
"Jon Batiste and Stay Homin"
Home with my homies!
"Covidia, Purell and their friend Tony Beefaroni."
Okay. This had some great jokes in it.
Edit: " they won't need to embalm me because I'm as cured as a Virginia ham right now."
2nd Edit: I love Jon Batiste, he is an international treasure.
Just when we thought Stephen had deserted the airwaves, we found the TH-cam ON LINE !
THANKYOU, THANKYOU, THANKYOU STEPHEN AND CBS ! YOUR STILL HERE. WILL ALWAYS WATCH!

One at home segment could be “Extremely awkward conversations with my teenage kids who don’t want to be on camera with me.” 😉 I mean, icing on the cake/cherry on top, right? Haha! Love these quarantine shows. Thanks for keeping us laughing.
I loved JonBatiste's piano playing at the end. The rest is appreciated also.
It's just not the same without his annoying interruptions.
Yes. He is amazing.
Anyone know if this is an actual song or was he just riffing? It's incredible!
He's Amazing.
*You know it's serious when Stephen puts down an imaginary object, and Jon Batiste isn't there to play a high note.*
♫TI-dink♫
Same...While watching I did a rimshot on my drum (I don't have a keyboard but hand drums.🤣).
@@jaibhimadevi5805🎵 ta-dunk🎵
I played notes in my brain for it 🤷🏽♀️😂
I was really hoping they would cut that in video in a little pop-up window.
This popped up for me again now in December 2023. I went through breast cancer treatment during early 2020 and these shows kept me going when I was so sick from chemo and quarantining with my husband and girls. Love these two!❤
I bet his neighbors are at their windows, look Marge, he's out there singing again!
Has he got the schizophrenia?
@@cjbarahona5770 that is an odd question in response. who are you even asking about & why would mental illness be the question? lol
You wouldn't happen to live in Springfield? If you happen to go past the nuclear power plant please say hello to Homer for me.
@@nicholasschoonbeck6866 what is this LOL? People use it as a get-out-of-jail card of sorts. I don't think I have ever laughed out loud and proclaimed it. LOL basically means golly gee please don't come and retaliate against me. Lollipop seems much more appropriate. Suck it
@@JohnPaul-yf9xdI'm sure you think you're very clever but your response makes even less sense. Asking if an unspecified person, out of at least 3 possible people, are schizophrenic, is a get out of jail card, in a situation with no punishments? Get out what 'jail'? I don't belong to any of the reddits for toxic men, so maybe that's the problem?
