Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT, the #1 show in late night, where he talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology and more. Featuring bandleader Louis Cato and “THE LATE SHOW band,” the Peabody Award-winning and Emmy Award-nominated show is broadcast from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer and writer of THE LATE SHOW on Sept. 8, 2015. - บันเทิง
He’s a great person and that politician statement of “..be a public servant not a party servant “ is probably the best truth said. He’s not stupid..he’s accurate 100%. Thanx Arnold.
Best comment I ever heard from a politician. He is so right.
Colbert, party servant.
@@bobgrubbs7756 But do you agree with Arnold's comments?
All politicians are party servants no peoples who vote for them. They just use us.
he's pretty stupid or simply lying if he thinks 90% of the country supports background checks. background checks won't save one single life bc the thugs don't play by the laws anyway. I know most of you what comprehend this simple truth.
Arnold is the rare example of a Republican I actually respect.
Arnold’s calling out legislators as cowards! Love it!
When Ahnold calls you a coward, you don't ahgue.
To the question “have you ever asked anyone for their autograph?” 😂
He's gonna run for something!
I can't think of a single legislator that would argue that to his face tho! (except trump but we already know he has no sense of self preservation)
He had me at Ruben..Yummmm
I honestly love this man. I’m a sucker for nostalgia, and he was a childhood hero. Predator, total recall, and terminator2 are all in my personal top 20 goats
Arnold is always impressive, he is one of the more inspirational people of our times. Arnold always seems to be evolving to be a better human.
IMPRESS THIS ........... Arnie CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!! Your MORE famous now for your stupid speech " SCREW YOUR FREEDOM " Dah !
Well-said. True too, I think.
Everyone should always be evolving to be a better human the way Arnold does
This man is basically my hero. I grew up watching his films, and looked up to him. He came to our school once during the late 80's and I have always admired this man.
What did he do or say at the school ?
@@davidh7832 He punched through a wall and said "I'll be back"
This is by far the best guest Colbert has had on this segment! This type of segment is made for a celebrity like Schwarzenegger! He is larger than life, physically and culturally so him answering these questions make for good entertainment!!
Yes, and REAL, thoughtful answers - not just prearranged fluff.
"Why the window seat?"
"I like to see where I'm going." Legend.
The funniest comment after that "There will BE NO BATHROOM!" haha
I agree....
he fly in coach lol Ha ha ha!
How on earth that answer makes him a "legend?" That's a bizarre comment.
All appreciation and respect to Mr Schwarzenegger
*Mr Schnitzel.
💯🙏
Loved Arnold since I was a kid, always looked up to him. I was always worried that the 'real' him would never live up to my expectations of him....yet he fully surpassed it and stayed grounded. He has a big ego but in a weird way it's a respectful ego. I attribute that to him being raised in Europe, where kids are mostly brought up to have a bit more respect. His documentary on Netflix really solidified my thoughts of him. He's willing to admit his mistakes and is always trying to exceed expectations and evolve in a positive way.
* Arnie CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!! Your MORE famous now for your stupid speech " SCREW YOUR FREEDOM " Dah !
He is very much loved it my home country too. He is THE man, we were aspiring towards. Great human being.
I loved Arnold's sidebar on Gorbachev. Happy memories of that era!
Gorbachev was an idiot lol. He did not destroy communism, his litteraly destroyed our whole country. The Communist Party still exists in Russia. Therefore, Arnold's view is a typical superficial view of an American.
My son's middle name is Mikhail because of how influential he was when I was growing up.
Inspiring, I agree
Like a fine wine, Arnold just gets better with age. Very accurate about the politicians on gun control...." They only know one thing, and that is to be a party servant rather than to be a public servant."
That's perfect. There was just one thing I wish he would have added to what he said about these politicians being afraid of the gun lobbyists ... they're afraid of losing the money the lobbyists are lining the politician's pockets with!!
However, Mr. Schwarzenegger has too much class to go down that road.
I don't think is a Republican any longer.
@@pattiwhite9575He still identifies as having Republican values however has vociferously distanced and disowned the whole MAGA nonsense.
Old school republican
Spoken like someone unwillingly raised under the Iron Curtain. To be a Russian communist was to be a party servant.
"Be a public servant, not a party servant."
That's GOLD
Amen
Platinum ❤😎🤟
That's gold Jerry! Gold!
Yeah he endorsed the woke one so he is now tarnished for life. Thank god for the blue flush.❤
@@kevinmartel2456
That's what you sheep are saying? Wow. I guess it makes sense, cult stronger than ever now.
Arnold is never boring. He was spot on about political hacks
90% is not spot on. probably not even 50%. regardless, 90% doesn't matter. the 2nd amendment matters
@user-vb1qi4gt9k "As part of a well regulated militia" you mean right?
@@Kevin-q7k3qright wingers always omit the 'well regulated ' part..... just like they chop up half the Bible to whatever opinion they are spewing instead of the actual Bible teachings
He HACK !!!!!!!! Arnie CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!! Your MORE famous now for your stupid speech " SCREW YOUR FREEDOM " Dah !
@@Kevin-q7k3qdo you think they foresaw kids walking into school and shooting when they wrote that? Gtfo
I sincerely admire Arnold. When he set his mind on something, he went out and got it. Body builder, investor, actor, and then governor of California. He let nothing stand in his way. And now, he’s enjoying life as an elder statesman. He loves his fans. And he is out there doing his best to lift people up. If you have Netflix, I recommend watching Arnold. You’ll learn a lot about a great man.
An occasionally flawed Man like we all are but overall a Steller Human who keeps on putting in.
Smart, compassionate, insightful, self-aware. That was great.
his disgust with party politics was palpable
Lol
Yeah; it's been interesting to see how he has evolved politically since the mid 2000s; at the time he was a slightly liberal Republican, but did not really speak much on social issues. Now he's shifted a bit to the left and is "less like a politician."
Agreed, also took aim at Republicans for going against America on gun control.
@@jamesbrough6805 ???
@@omi_godYeah. It's not hard.
We need so many more Arnold’s in this world!!
Beautiful words about Gorby!!
And a Republican showing that gun control isn't a party issue.
"Current federal law requires background checks to be performed for anyone purchasing a firearm at a federally licensed gun dealer"
@@johnbushwick9724not gun shows or "private" sales. So many loopholes
@@zetectic7968 >> See. You’re wrong. One still has perform a background check at a gun show, if you buy a gun there. Private transfers technically depend on the state.
@@johnbushwick9724 Not enough. Still many loopholes, the types of weapons available for legal purchase are ridiculous, you can still own multiple weapons -dozens or hundreds, and you can buy a gun before you can buy a beer.
The man has seen things and learned. Nobody can call him dumb. #Arnold4PREZ
Arnold struck again, the guy is just AWESOME.
I remember when he got elected Governor of California. I wasn't a fan, but he proved himself a capabe politician, very smart and surprisingly honest.
"Reuben; Titanic; window seat; dogs" Like he was reading my mind. Arnie is frikkin awesome!
Stephen. Stephen. Stephen listen to me. The man is the king of action movies. If he says Titanic is an action movie, it's an action movie! And maybe Cameron will make a sequel where Arnie has to go back in time and prevent it from sinking?
Omg I love this
He can reuse all of his "ice" puns from Batman!
@@cliffordallen5587 If Shyamalan directs the movie, he can use the line, "Icy dead people!"
@cliffordallen5587 He can tell the iceberg to "Chill Out".
"Everybody back to the ice chipper!"
Arnold would make a good American president
He can’t be president. He wasn’t born in the United States. He would make a good one though.
If only…
I was just thinking the same thing😅
Get daaaaaun, dez a bomb
He was a republican governor and his policies are anti middle class, unión, and worker. Just cause he is anti trump doesn't mean he is any good.
Everyone just passed over "there is no bathroom" from Kindergarten Cop
I loved him in that movie!
Probably Colbert didn’t see it!
In our family "it's not a tooomaaar" is an oft quoted line.
If only he could run for President of the United States.
Love this questionnaire! His answers were so down to earth, honest and you can see he truely showcased himself and personality. ❤
The more I see Arnold, the more I love him. He isn't perfect, but he is real and a caring man. His strength is in his unwavering desire to learn and grow.
When he ran for California governor, a lot of us were naturally very skeptical. Just another celebrity running for office. But unlike pretty much all the rest, he turned out to be not too bad as our governor. A reasonable Republican - a dying breed.
"Be a public servant, not a party servant". He was the only real "public servant", he didn't care if someone was republican or democrat as long as the goal was to serve the country to be best interest of everyone and not only for himself or his party.
He might even make a good president, too bad he can't. A debate with other candidate would at least be about the content and not about the other candidates personal life.
8y788787878778@@ppdan
He’s a rino. We just flushed wokeism. CA is turning red after the disaster the dems have delivered. I have been here almost all my 55yrs. I used to be great and thriving. It is now progressive/repressive. We need a R governor to right the ship in 2 years.
Been watching Arnold interview for decades and he's always been witty intelligent and articulate.
As the grandchild of holocaust survivors, I think people really need to listen to how prophetic Mr. Schwarzenegger‘s words are. He grew up in a time where, instead of going against the Nazi party, many people in Germany and Austria went along thinking. Maybe this will make Germany great again, maybe this will make Austria great again, but it didn’t. Now you did have people stand up against the Nazis, and they were quickly taken care of. Maybe if you had many many more standup the outcome might’ve been a little different. But sometimes you have to have the courage even though if you do that means certain demise. You don’t change history for the better with complacency or collaboration.
Not to mention the fact, Arnold Schwarzenegger has always been a good dude. Yes there’s been issues and transgression but we’re all human. At the end of the day, the guy has tried to be better. He’s tried to inspire people to have courage, and that is incredibly powerful.
Fast forward to Make America great again? As G.W. said, 'Fool me once...'
Schwarzenegger is an idol for many, including me. But he is mistaken about the situation with the Nazis in Ukraine. They sent him letters about Donbass, which he either did not read or did not accept. He is simply blindly echoing US propaganda. But the reality is different.

He was born 2 years after the end of ww2
@@Red_Platinuum As all of us that were born during the war, or right after, the war was a huge thing growing up. I was born in Denmark 3 month before the war ended. My parents, my aunt and uncle lived under the German Occupation for 5 years. It was often talked about in my house and when visiting family. My mother always said what a horrible time it was. They lived in the country, but my aunt an uncle lived in Copenhagen where the occupation was felt every day. A close friend of my aunt and uncle was a police officer and he was wanted by the Gestapo. He came down to live with my parents for 6 months, as it was suppose to be safer in the country. You still had to be careful, he basically never went outside during the day, you never knew when somebody might snitch to the Germans. It the Gestapo had discovered him there, my parents would have been send to a concentration camp or worse.
Agreed, He was born a couple of years after the Nazi era, and the war, but all of the adults, and many of the older children around him would have been deeply affected by it, so he would have learned those lessons very well.
"Those people are willing to risk their lives. These people aren't even willing to risk their position." Brilliant indictment on modern politicians.
I can't tell whether or not he intentionally quoted Kindergarden Cop or not.
"THERE IS NO BATHROOM!"
Was thinking the same thing 😁
I thought that, too!! 😆😆😆🍿🍹
Yeah, it was intentional, the amount of references slipped into that whole exchange, not to mention the fact that Colbert just so happened to have a picture of Arnold and Gorbachev right there, AS Arnold launched into a monologue about Gorbachev....it was scripted. The whole thing. They played it off as a conversation/interview of course because I mean they're both actors, that's kinda what they do.
@@adamb89 The show is rehearsed to some degree, but the guests are rarely there for it. There were obvious cases, like the staged smackdown fight between Colbert and Bruce Willis, but usually the interviews are pretty spontaneous. There are bullet points on a few topics that will be covered, of course. But not scripted.
@@MandleRossOh absolutely, my point was that it wasn't just off the cuff. I mean it seems obvious to me, but I've had to have this conversation before about things! I remember an episode of The Arsenio Hall show where there was a "malfunction" and as the curtain rose up, it caught his tie and he started hanging by his neck. My friend was freaking out thinking that someone was lynching him, and I'm like "Dude I know we're 12 but come tf on, this is PRE RECORDED do you really think he's...?? Uhgghhhhh..." and yeah he was the dumb one in my friend group but still.
Seriously the 90s kid superhero. Also what a beautiful first memory, I do this with my kids to, we love a good thunder storm.
It's a shame Arnold can't run for president. He's the leader we need!
Didn't stop the Kenyan chap
@@80srenaissance67what's it like to be this delusional for 20 years?
Amazing Man. I , as a fellow Austrian living in CA am humbled by his physical, mental and spiritual strength
He expressed the feeling of every immigrant when he said "The politicians should serve the people not the party". That is why we left our country.
Beautiful
Or one could serve the people…and principle.
You're gonna have to serve somebody
Well, it may be the Devil or it may be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody
Colbert : " what number am I thinking of ? "
Arnold : " I don't care "
Should have said 69.
I thought he said "three."
Ahh man, the 80s was the peak of action movies and action stars.. Not like today. I wasn't alive, but I've seen all of them so so many times, and never get tired of them 💯 I really apreciate it fr
@luke5100 and 2000s also. Honestly, I think that golden era of Hollywood movies started with 80s and ended with 2000s, when Lords of the Rings and Star Wars prequels came out.
Smart kid to go back and watch them.
The "my wife get's half, but what the hell" was hilarious!
I remember being hopeful about Russia with Gorbachev. As a boomer, Russia is a scary place, those childhood drills are etched in my mind. But Gorbachev started to ease those fears, Putin doesn't, he has reversed them. I don't understand why anyone here has positive opinions on the man but people have positive opinions about 45 so...
Kruchev was the scariest of them , until Putin.
Right. Though Putin does not want Communism back, he just wants to be dictator. No wonder Trump loves him.
Too bad he isn't running for president!
Gorbachev in his homeland (Russia) is considered a traitor and a Judas.
And in the West this man is considered a hero. Communism led humanity to a bright future.
And the West, with its brainwashed media, considers communists worse than Nazis.
Those who are afraid of Putin are enemies of Russia, because Putin is supported by the vast majority of the population, unlike Gorbachev.
@@charlesking5328 Not Stalin?
Arnold was absolutely AWSOME in this interview. Steven Colbert did a great job, too, by letting Arnold talk, being respectful, and listening to what he said.
This is like the 3rd time a guest has guessed the number 3 and gotten the same reaction from Stephen: "interesting."
the number is pi
I was thinking to say 3 too lol
It's a test. He isn't thinking of 3, Stephen decided on a number to see if guests researched the questionert and now it keeps coming back to him.
Hundescheiße😂😂😂😂😂🇪🇸👍👍👍👍🇪🇸🇪🇸
@@RealWitblitzEven if you watched every prior questionnaire you wouldn't be able to guess the number.
What a gent. I really admire the he’ll out of Arnie. Big hero of mine my entire life
@AllyC couldnt agree more. He worked hard- literally- to achieve his success. The story about the python is hilarious- if theres anyone who could fight off a python its Arnold.
You had me at Reuben, Arnold… you had me at Reuben.
True, it is the perfect sandwich.
You had me at Arnold, Reuben.
My mom held me on the couch to watch lightning saying it was the Angels bowling. I still love thunderstorms. What a lovely memory for Arnold. 🙏🏽💙🦋🦋🦋
I searched for the world "HUNDEscheisse", found this comment (tHUNDErstorms). LOL!
To be fair, Terminator 2 is a really, really, really, reaaaally good film.
reaally reeaaaallly good. definitely in top 5 greatest action films of all time.
The tanker chase scene alone makes it the best...
@@ianw0ng Hasta la vista, baby!
Best action movie of all time
@luke5100I actually like T1 and the TV show more than T2 but still, it's a darn fine film and probably one of the best ever made.
I bought the book, it's really good. Surprisingly motivational, incredible perspective, and I value Arnold as a source of wisdom now. I wish I had discovered this other side to him sooner. Definitely would have been a great role model. Would make a great mentor now
I have his book, but I haven't listened to it yet. Thanks for the reminder. I can't wait to hear it after what you have said.
I've always liked Mr. Schwarzenegger.
5:29 The best statement regarding our politics often times, from people who had to understand the American dream from afar before being able to live it out.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bad interview from Arnold.
He is so brilliantly Humble
The women use to call him the octopus on movie sets, as he was fast with the hands😊
Oh My gosh, that was GREAT Arnold ,such TRUE WORDS SPOKEN. Thank you
He's 76. He's 76, and he looks like that.
Hair dye.
He's got $$$$.
He's a Leo. They age well.
And took a beard.
I hope you're joking... you're bringing star signs into this?@@ruby07241
Honestly we need to cherish every day that we have with Arnold, he could pass away anytime.
I absolutely love how passionate Arnold is about how terrible our politicians are. And he's not afraid to outright call them out on it.
I don't agree with all his views, but I can't sit here and say the man isn't a hero for the people.
This was the greatest questionnaire!!!
I loved every minute of it!!!
I subscribe to Arnold's Free Good news newsletter that comes in every Monday. He's so encouraging and straight-up enthusiastic, so it's a nice way to start the week.
Here in Austria we call him Arnold the Styrian Oak.Greetings from Vienna-Austria.

Oh, if only we could have president Arnold.
If the choice was between Arnold and Trump, there'd be no question who would win.
@@jamesgravil9162I’d love to see Trump squirm in that primary. His ego is so fragile. Oh, the intimidation! I can’t even imagine.
@@keldalaney If Trump tried to present Arnold as the "weaker" candidate, Arnie could simply invite him to an arm-wrestling match. That I would pay to see.

Amen!
Why no one clapped for that past memories question 🙄....i loved his answer ❤
This was one of the best questionnaires ive seen
Arnold is such a class act, love this man
Arnold Schwarzenegger is an incredible American!
Austrian app2! 😅
Bravo! And many thanks for all you said, do and have done and will do. Bless you!
Shame we can’t make him POTUS.
It's not impossible but you are right this man is one of the greatest presidents that never was.
Both the left and right will vote him.
Truly a great human
Republicans have a long and failed history of running TV celebrities for President! 🤣😂🤦♂️
I love how his first response "I don't need five words was five words 🤣 great interview, love them.
Arnold realized that he got way to real for a second and did a 180 on that death question lol. I only wish to have the ability to read a room like that
Perception 100
Stephen got it back on track by stating "no" is Arnold's answer about the autograph and moved on to next question in the series.
I like that he gave some unconventional answers and didn't feel the need to maintain a certain image. Joan Baez, gun control, and more. But you can still see his political stripes when he says "Communism doesn't work." It's corruption and autocracy that doesn't work, and that can happen with capitalism too, as the U.S. is now seeing firsthand.
Nailed American politicians 😅
Republicans
@@CjOwyn exactly! 😡 Republicans are the problem and pretending “both sides are the same” is disingenuous and deplorable
“So you have never asked for someone’s autograph.”
😂💀☠️☠️☠️
I love them both so much hahahaha
😂❤😂❤😂😂😂
Nice! Got to know him from beyond the questions. His take on political courage was sso sobering.
Among the greatest Americans in modern times. What a man. And he's funny as hell, too
He's still as SHARP as a tack!
The level of his courage and honesty while talking about politics and politicians is absolutely phenomenal. I don't care if many think he's not a good actor, but the guy is scholar and he's got guts. He's Arnold Schwarzenegger, after all.
Maybe not a perfect man, but a damn good one nonetheless.
There are no perfect people.
ask any trump@@HelynnHeels
Maybe not a perfect man, but he had a perfect manly body at one point.
@@HelynnHeels I am
7:13 he said it! He said the line from kindergarten cop😂😂😂😂😂
Can I call you Arnold?
Call me Schnitzel. 😊
Wise and intelligent words. Great man. Great interview. Good laugh! Respect to Arnold - The Terminator!
Love this man, a true action hero
Arnold will forever be my super hero. He is talented, smart, funny and what is more, he is decent and brave. Great combination. Thank you for this interview!
him calling them hacks was very soothing❤
You could tell Arnold went off script for a minute with that political tangent, but he's absolutely right. Got the feeling Steven was trying to get him back on track but Arnie was going to finish his thought first.
Born in a divided Austria (yes, just like Berlin) in 1948 he witnessed first hand the devastation another maniacal leader and fellow Austrian could wield against a mesmerized, complacent populace
Arnold is the man! We have so much to learn from him, his is incredible.
"NO NO! THERE IS NO BATHROOM!"
"We can have a president that represents a party, or we can have a president that represents a nation." Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
I love him so much. T2 is one of my favorites too. That and Point Break are probably my favorite action films.
Both came out the same summer...
His documentary was incredible cos his life was incredible. Love how he turned a silly game into a meaningful statement here
Arnold is a national treasure.
Thank you Steven! You are the best late night show!!!!! Watched you many years!
When Arnold mentions Gorbachev seemingly offhand and then Stephen pulls out a photo of them together it's a weird, stark reminder that all this shit is totally rehearsed. Call me naive but I'd like to think these conversations are at least happening mostly in real time.
They do rehearse. Stephen has said so in the past. This is TV, after all. The only Questionert I have seen that appeared unrehearsed is the one with Barbara Streisand in her home.
it is more or less rehearsed and they‘re open about that actually…
I came here to say this but was looking for a similar comment before posting. I didn't have to scroll far. It's kind of disappointing in a way.
In a world where political correctness and cancel culture has ruined careers of those in the public eye, networks can't risk having talk show guests saying what they really think and feel unfiltered/uncensored.
If you really wanna know, understand and truly appreciate what Arnold has achieved, just listen to Bill Burr admiring his accomplishments in the most brutally honest way. 👌👌
I’ve always always loved Arnie, ever since I was a kid
I love Arnold!!!! One of my favorite people ever!!!! ❤❤❤
Arnold you are fabulous!
Incredible Interview.. Go Arnold and Colbert. That was fun..
ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER for SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE!!
Titanic being his favorite movie ever is ICONIC
“ They only know to be a party servant and not a public servant!”
Arnold Swartzenegger is cool. 👍🏽✨
I just drove out of the grocery parking lot and saw the leftover bronze statue of Arnold at Tim's foundary today! Also have fond memories of watching one of them go down the street on a trailer to the beer fest.
Get 'em, Arnold!!! You are spot on!
