As a swiss living in Switzerland who used to watch as many episodes on the daily he could of the « steven colbert report », I was blessed enough to be in the audience of a Colbert recording during a 3 day trip to NY due to a technical error in their ticket booking system! Keep watching him to this day, such a great intelligent man
You’re lucky to live in Switzerland! I used to go there often (helping with international organization conferences) and felt like I belonged there. So civilized, clean and organized! Bravo!
I am from Portugal, same about about watching Stewart and Colbert and also have the wish to one day be in the audience of either the Daily Show with Jon Stewart or Late Show with Colbert (ideally both 🤭) 🤩
@@NCbassfishing24This reminded me of a Bob Dylan story when a journalist was asked to come back later because Dylan was working. The journalist came back hours later and Dylan hadn't moved. "Christ, what is he on?", asked the journalist. "CBS Records", answered the manager, ushering him back to the door.
I've known for years that wasps can learn to recognize people - thanks to a young man who did an experiment in which he fed a hive of wasps, and as a result was defined by the hive as a waiter instead of a threat.
I feel like the joke started out as “Alright, alright, alright” and then once they ran it, someone thought it was too predictable. For me in the audience, “ok, ok, ok” was a head scratcher (wasn’t his catch phrase something else?) and the pun of “alright” would have been funnier on its own.
You had me at *Margarita Butt Funnel.* Cause that should trigger an _epic_ Louis Cato groan. Edit: Louis really held it together at the *Heinz Assisted Suisauce* though.
You sound a bit like Jack Burton there. ": Okay. You people sit tight, hold the fort and keep the home fires burning. And if we're not back by dawn... call the president."
I used to spend my afternoons reading while sitting between my father's beehives because it was the only way my hyperactive cousin would leave me alone. I'm highly allergic to bee venom but they never bit me but I didn't expect them to actually know me.

That "salt the rim" stinger was exceptional. Good job, writers!
If you get a chance "to salt a rim" you take that chance.
Maybe but they sure dropped the ball on the McConaughey joke he never said ok ok ok he said all right all right all right
Definitely a good line, but The Scathing Atheist Podcast beat them to it by a couple days
Hippopotapult 😂
@@positivevibetec that was the joke.
Sounds Like if You Eat that New Heinz Sauce, You Are going to the Mayo Clinic!
I know this joke was low hanging fruit, but dangit.
It's good fruit.

Kudos, sir, well said! 👏 😆

It's the little finger motion that makes the salting of the rim joke extra exquisite.
"But.. Sir... it's as Mayo as we can.."
"I said more MAYO!"
-The darkest part of the Heinz test kitchens.
The Mayo jokes thrill me as a millennial who consistently has the article Millennials Killed Mayo playing in my mind 😅
I can imagine the scene, with tremors, lights going off and on, lamps swinging, and the Heinz guy saying "What have we done?"
Put mayo on that cow bell!!!
Probably.

“Salt the rim” had me literally LOL.
I swear he did that joke a couple of weeks ago. That's the second salted rim.
After thinking a while, it may have been someone in the comments that said it. Wait, are the writers getting their material from the comments?
The quote is FAMOUSLY "alright, alright, alright". You're killing me, Tiny.
It was an intentional play on the original quote to fit the current situation.

"He forgot to salt the rim" is Peak Colbert.

Okay, just wanted to say thank you
"indigent grizzlepit of news" is top shelf
Hold up... I need to know more about that 'hippos can fly' part...
Airborne, so they're better at jumping than you'd expect.
Stephen teases us with headlines (bees using tools, hippos going airborne) but then we're left hanging. I guess I need NPR's SciFri instead.
I forgot the sauna curing the frogs. I need to know how to build one.

The jokes related to the margarita butt joke were the best! Fantastic writing!
Salt the rim!! No he didn’t
He did 😂😂 and I WHEEZED.
And then took that exaggerated drink from his mug... with a very guilty smirk. Only he and Evie know the truth. 😉
You had me at *Margarita Butt Funnel.*
Cause that should trigger an _epic_ Louis Cato groan.
Edit: Louis really held it together at the *Heinz Assisted Suisauce* though.
That finger gesture while “salting the rim” …. 😳😬🤣
I don’t know what I’m going to do when Colbert decides to retire. Savoring each episode.
😐I didn't need to think about that.
Anyone up for brunch? Butt chugging a margaritas 😂 is the new thing 😝.
But ALWAYS remember to salt the rim.

How many attempts will happen just because of this episode?

Now if they mix the spicy mayo with the Margareara, that's when you throw them out of the restaurant and call the National Guard!
Somebody call the Rear Admiral!

Stephen: “I hope he’s Okay, Okay, Okay.” 😭🤣

He was probably the one pouring. Or standing on the bar to get a bird's eye view.

Can bees actually bite us? Not that I'm gonna test that, but I do wonder if that would hurt.
@@Mondoblasto0 LOL! You're right! I meant sting not bite although now I'm curious too.
This was one of the best "Meanwhile" segments in Colbert's collective history. Right up there with some classic Johnny Carson.
Hippopotapult😂
I wish they'd explained the phrase "airborne for substantial periods"
just a bit further.🤔
@@FurtiveSkeptical I would think they meant "Hippos can jump higher than we thought they could and we think that's weird".
