This is EXACTLY Jim's style. Awkward laughs and silence is part of his schtick. He loves making the audience laugh uncomfortably. Stephen was perfect lol
Or he doesn’t appreciate. I don’t think he likes Jim’s usual style. Sometimes I suspect he knows his church friends are watching. Sometimes he just shows a browbeating attitude.
@@skoll_2024 he is just like any other American TV show host. They cannot stand the fact that they are not the funniest person in the room, but they have to do their job. Almost every comedian that goes to a TV show gets treated like this. These host think people watch for them, in stead of watchingn for the guest.
idiot. it's the government's duty to defend the liberty of the individual yes. That is not the same as an individual defending themself against someone or something (including a government) that intends to do them harm. Your argument is moot
Chris Gee exactly AND WE DON’T EAT SHRIMP WE EAT PRAWNS!! And we don’t throw Em’ on the barbie we boil them and chill them and eat them fucken cold mate.
Stephen left him hanging there after the 'that's what people in Reno are doing anyway' joke. Come on Stephen - you have to learn how to deal with the quirky guests a bit better.
Jeremy Frances it’s possible that Colbert took a job as an interviewer of guests and then turned out this disaster. It’s not as though Jim isn’t talkative or bubbly either.
Can’t work with the guest, don’t have the guest. Stephen Colbert is in no way funny and has no interviewing skills. He’s so stiff, a bad interviewer. Can’t get over when he says we haven’t had goldminers since.... um idiot, do you know what Australia produces?
@@arconeagain I’m pretty sure the television network told Jim what he could and what he couldn’t say. He didn’t swear once during this interview. They would of read his material before he appeared. The issue lies with the Host being a boring douche bag and can only relate to rich PG rated celebrities. If it was Jennifer Anniston taking about her nail clippings, he’d be engrossed in the conversation.
It was funny, but doesn't he know that you can't just look for something different in your same area. It's not like there's all the things you mine in any one location. Without coal, miners would either stay and rot in those communities or get out. And then maybe they could find another type of mining job, but I don't know how many other types of mining jobs there are. And yes I know my comment is very annoying because it was a joke.
I finally get it! Stephen really cant tolerate anyone who is funnier than him. I thought he was just having a bad day, when he was totally off with Bill Burr, but with Jefferies it was the same thing. He will never laugh at a joke, never build upon it, he will just read from his script till he can safely call the interview over. AWKWARD.

notformebeaky i see your point, but ck is funny, just like Conan on remotes or Colbert drunk... The whole crowd thing is fair, but you will find that everywhere... Gervais and our Australian up here are awesome, but your "hate" towards the Americans might not be to objective? Again ck is probably the funniest guy at the moment in the states, might not be your cup of tea yet great fun for the rest of us
Stephan either pretended not to get Jims humor or really didn't get his humor. Whatever it was, the interview sure sounded like slow death. Awkwardaaawww!
I like Stephen but I hate most guests you say he bonds with, especially when they go on and on and on about catholicism or something else conservative. It's funnier when he gets shocked by guests.
He found Jim crude, which he is. I am sure he would be just as disengaged with any comedian like that. What was interesting was the audience sounded like they were really into him.
I think he does best with celebrities who are talkative but serious, or at least who are not particularly comical. With them, he can maintain a good conversation and crack a joke every now and then to keep the mood light and people giggling. With comedians he seems to get stuck, as if he expects them to just carry the interview and essentially do a five minutes stand-up bit while he just looks on.
@Donna Campbell you moron evan ws quoting the joke and saying he thought it was hillairous no one thinks if north korea bombs reno jim jefferies is at fault except for comedy centrals lawyers
Imo, Colbert is actually a super serious, uptight guy. You cant take him for a ride. The style of the Colbert Show REALLY hid this weakness. He put on the show, he interacted almost exclusively with people that weren't comedians. He was always in control. When hes with another comedian that can take over the conversation, it's pretty much a wrap for him.
Jesus what was wrong with Stephen in this interview? That guest did a nice job at trying to keep the interview alive but Stephen sure did everything he could to make it awkward
That's where Jon Stewart shined. He could always play off his guests whether they were politicians he absolutely slammed and disagreed with, or comedians of every sort.
Stephen Colbert is not an entertainer, he is a presenter. He presents those who entertain. Craig Ferguson on the other hand was both a presenter and a very funny entertainer.
I Love this guy. He's smart. funny. and his perspectives on issues are "no nonsense" "common sense" so how can you not love him. Always Great to see like Lewis Black.
Bernie would have been so much better though. It's amazing how you Americans always get stuck on that socialist part. Democratic socialism is a thing and it's very popular. Most civilized countries have a whiff of it and they like it. Free healthcare in Canada is a form of socialism. Nothing bad with that. Most Nordic countries operate with forms of socialism the same way. We collectively pay taxes and we get shit like roads... among other things. Bernie was also the only candidate who actually looked like a real human being... plus the things that came out of his mouth actually made sense. Trump is still a fucking disaster. A dangerous choice cause he's an asshole, drunk on power and himself and lacks any sort of intelligent thought. Plus, other countries think you're all retarded now. How many million people are living in America again? This is your best? LMAO!
Honestly, I think he's concerned Jim's about to go overly bleak and blue for a light entertainment show. Notice that Jim's not awkward at all and also not thrown by Steven's attitude. He knows he's a baaad widdle boy but he behaves himself, more or less.
Jim's spot on about Aussie Mining Towns. I remember spending a week in Charters Towers when I was 18. Me and a mate nearly got bashed by half the pub because the two local girls came over to us and started talking/drinking with us and ignoring the local ferals. When the girls went to the toilet (in pairs as usual) a large gent came over and apprised us of the situation ... and that's when I noticed 20 odd pairs of eyes glaring at us ... we did the honourable thing and got the hell out of there - they weren't that good looking nor was I that drunk yet!
Hahaha Jefferies on point as usual. I've got to say, the funniest joke was when Steven reacted awkwardly to one of his jokes and in the ensuing awkward clunky moment, Jefferies goes 'fun chat Steven' HAHAHA That was a stitch up
why does Reno get such a hard time ?......I'm English and genuinely don't no ……...never been there.....I listen to Hawkwind, Gong, Bowie and like Asian street food......would I like Reno?...….is it a shit hole? or to expensive for your average guy or girl? full of drugs?.....or dry as an old nuns twat?....I really want to no....and don't say "Google it "
Bad Man Skill Didn't Colbert just recently get in trouble for saying Trump's mouth is Putin's cock-holster? Stephen will go there,... if he's the one driving.
Bad Man Skill it's called selling out. The two comedic news anchors (John stewart) & (Colbert) get promoted/retire to do WWE right around the exact same time the country needed to band up and make a decision on who should be president.
This is my take as well. It seems like ever since he switched shows he's been afraid to laugh or have fun because, as I'm keenly aware from having experienced it myself, certain liberal bubbles like to crucify those for even reacting in a unapproved manner to non-strictly pc joke or comment. That, to me, is how comedy dies. I reckon that the only ones that benefit from it are cunts.
That voice thing is SO true! I used to teach defibrillator courses, everyone in Oz whinged about the American accent on the machine, to the point that the developers added an Aussie accent option - then everyone refused to use it because "it doesn't sound authoritative enough" smh
Jim Jefferies is the first Australian celebrity that I think actually sounds like an Australian. Most of them become a sort of PC version, but he still has that occa Aussie going on. Ps, I am Australian
There are 3 Australian accents, broad, general and cultivated. Jim has a broad accent, but most people speak with a general accent, so accusing other people of bunging on side is silly, Jim is in the minority.
If you think that was awkward, check out his interview with Christoph Waltz. I consider this the most awkward ten minutes of Colbert. Did I say awkward? Awkward.
You get the feeling Stephen's a bit worried that Jim can't be entirely contained... Fortunately for Stephen, Jim contained himself. I've no doubt that Stephen's not a huge fan of Jim. Colbert's demeanor changes a great deal for people he honestly likes. He's not a good liar (which is one reason why we like him) but that makes for awkward situations like this for sure.
Wilbur W. I wonder if the show itself is adding stress to his life that's causing a character change. It's not uncommon to become so big and busy you aren't enjoying what you do anymore.
Fernando Herrera Nah, Steven has always been good with reading from a script, but hasn't been the best at being funny off the top of his head. He's never been a very good on the spot interviewer, even on his old show (although it was still funnier with his old character). I don't think he was ever cut out for this late night host gig in the first place.
He's just not funny, that's the fundamental problem. Sure he can read other funny people's words well, but when it comes down to applying your own brain creatively and quickly to exhibit wit, he's a 0/10.
Bloody TH-cam Naming Nonsense if you have seen is interviews off set when he had the Colbert report it even when he was with the daily show you'd know that's not true at all. He is very quick and quite funny. His interview with bill o'Reilly on Fox News was great.
Nah cummon dude. I'm an Aussie and Colbert hasn't lost it. Far from it. He just wasn't of a mind to get stuck into it. Perhaps if their paths cross again he'll roll up his sleeves ... Jefferies is a lot edgier and it's his first time (I think?) on the late show. Don't forget this is a little sub culture and the US is more class-based than Australia. Colbert would be unlikely to fully engage some new dude - he'd have to do his time. I just found the contrast in their accents amazing ... Jefferies on his own sounds normal to me. Geez.
Hiya averre mackay: That's because the scour America for the dumbest people to take over these late night shows that will tow the leftist party line to help deepen the indoctrination of the clapping seals in their audiences. I understood it fine, although Jefferies is offbase on his characterizations of we Yanks and our guns but that is a long, drawn out topic that I get tired of talking about. Nutshell version is that he is wrong.
+Anon54387 Hi, no he's not wrong entirely, he's expressing an opinion that I too share as do the majority of the sane world. We don't understand your unnecessary gun culture, lack of recognition and accountability for the ridiculous carry on for the need for weapons. We don't understand how this second amendment can be so misinterpreted and misconstrued to fit a purpose it was never meant for. It's time for it to stop, we did it you can too!, although it means needing to put a halt to the greed and corruption of the US Congress!. Gun control was not a left or right issue for us, it was and is a human issue!, a safety issue. we lost children at port Arthur and to us that's not acceptable to allow it to continue!.
Colbert tries too hard to outdo his guest... don't get it wrong, I am a Colbert fan. But he should try to make the guests look good, not bad. Colbert gets nervous when the guest is funnier than him, and that's not cool.
x Yep, I don't get what people see here. Imagining maybe. Now the Bill Burr interview, that was really awfull. But I really liked this interview. My only complain is that it could be longer. I love Jim Jeffriese.
He was the same with Bill Burr. He was also so terrified that both Bill and Jim would get so crude that they couldn't use the interview. They're professionals. They know they're on CBS. They aren't going to randomly start dropping f bombs for no reason.
Yeah, he also gave McEnroe an incredibly hard time in the wake of the (fair and accurate) stuff John said about Serena, so that he could keep the crowd on his side.
I hate Stephens monologues about Trump. They're insidious & transparent. He has disdain for others & a serious case of superiority complex. I'd rather see Letterman.. OR even Trump doing interviews, any day. They'd be LOTS funnier.
I actually really liked this interview. Didn't think it was cringeworthy or anything like that. Sure Stephen was unprepared for good Australian humour, but that made it really interesting. They both did a good job to keep the interview going.
lol so true! If you're an Australian, you've also gotta love that our name is longer & harder to pronounce than Austria, so it's also unlikely that dumb donald will manage to nuke us even if he tries
Its how people keep their jobs nowadays. Every Aurthur and Martha gets precious at the smallest things and then the media goes apeshit over it. This PC cotton wooling has gone off the deep end.
Colbert just reminds me of a banker who wants to be a lawyer, who wants to be an accountant, who wants to be a comedian. I’ve seen squares less square, and politicians more sincere.
A very clever joke at the end there, "I'm sure she's Happy" Happy being one of the 7 Dwarf's and they were ......................... Miner's. Brilliant :) Very funny as always Jim. Thank you.

Its publicity is solely driven through Yemini’s personal Facebook profile, where he also offers a wide range of views critical of Islam, Barack Obama, Daniel Andrews, and other character assessments such as calling Victorian government minister Philip Dalidakis a “wanker” and calling for the deportation of Waleed Aly, who once made a joke about his gym on The Project.) www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/dec/16/not-in-our-name-melbournes-jewish-community-does-not-support-one-nation

Bad Man Skill Didn't Colbert just recently get in trouble for saying Trump's mouth is Putin's cock-holster? Stephen will go there,... if he's the one driving.
I know man, like WTF...
Bad Man Skill it's called selling out. The two comedic news anchors (John stewart) & (Colbert) get promoted/retire to do WWE right around the exact same time the country needed to band up and make a decision on who should be president.
This is my take as well. It seems like ever since he switched shows he's been afraid to laugh or have fun because, as I'm keenly aware from having experienced it myself, certain liberal bubbles like to crucify those for even reacting in a unapproved manner to non-strictly pc joke or comment. That, to me, is how comedy dies. I reckon that the only ones that benefit from it are cunts.
Or maybe I'm giving Colbert too much credit and he really has bought the Uber-left's (distinct from the left I consider myself to be) pc bullshit.
That voice thing is SO true! I used to teach defibrillator courses, everyone in Oz whinged about the American accent on the machine, to the point that the developers added an Aussie accent option - then everyone refused to use it because "it doesn't sound authoritative enough" smh
Jim Jefferies is the first Australian celebrity that I think actually sounds like an Australian.
Most of them become a sort of PC version, but he still has that occa Aussie going on.
Ps, I am Australian
th-cam.com/video/348vc3gw1t0/w-d-xo.html
He's a woke soyboy
@@Ishidanfarded2370 Nah, just not an arsehole (correct spelling).
There are 3 Australian accents, broad, general and cultivated. Jim has a broad accent, but most people speak with a general accent, so accusing other people of bunging on side is silly, Jim is in the minority.
@@rivertam7827 I don't think it is so much about accent, rather the fact Jim doesn't water down his jokes for the US which is a more PC environment...
"Really..."
"Yeah..."
"Oh wow"
"Yeah, yeah!"
"So uhh, jim jeffries"
"WELL, UUUAGRUEHGH"
10/10 interviewer
Huh? 1 of 10
Captain Zouave its called sarcasm champ pretty easy to pick up on in this instance
As a Canadian I can relate to Jim Jeffries more than Steve Colbert
Canada is the Australia of the north ✊
@@DrHalbesWissen Brit here-hello Commonwealth Cousins.
@Frank White too right cob
As an American, (People's Republic of South Berkeley) I have little in common with Stephen, but would love to hang with Jim.
Dammit Stephen. First Burr and now Jeffries? Why was this unnecessarily awkward
Yet Jim interviewed Bill on Tuesday night and the two of them were great
Yup. He definitely doesn't mesh well with certain types of comics
If you think that was awkward, check out his interview with Christoph Waltz. I consider this the most awkward ten minutes of Colbert. Did I say awkward? Awkward.
Maybe he's bad with people who are funnier than him? Just a theory
Colbert with Waltz was a pretty great interview, don't compare it to when Colbert is awkward around darker comedians. Waltz is just quieter.
"This is a fun chat, Stephen."
Anyone else notice that Colbert gets really uneasy when his guest is a fellow comedian?
and Jim is super funny. Stephen has a dry sense of humor anyhow, he could never keep up.
Especially one that’s funnier than him
@@DonovanWert .... bascially, everyone!
As an Australian I can sincerely say I really enjoyed that chat :)
That was very awkward. Jim was having the time of his life and then Stephen is like yes. As an Aussie not laughing at that would be a sin
Love you both individually but awkward af interview bro
wickandde Colbert is a corporate bitch now
Colbert always make awkward interview with any Talk Show guy
That's Colbert for ya
isnt that South Parks defined formula for funny?
You get the feeling Stephen's a bit worried that Jim can't be entirely contained... Fortunately for Stephen, Jim contained himself. I've no doubt that Stephen's not a huge fan of Jim. Colbert's demeanor changes a great deal for people he honestly likes. He's not a good liar (which is one reason why we like him) but that makes for awkward situations like this for sure.
Colbert has forgotten how to be funny, so much so, that he looks uncomfortable around funny crass comics
Wilbur W. I wonder if the show itself is adding stress to his life that's causing a character change. It's not uncommon to become so big and busy you aren't enjoying what you do anymore.
Fernando Herrera Nah, Steven has always been good with reading from a script, but hasn't been the best at being funny off the top of his head. He's never been a very good on the spot interviewer, even on his old show (although it was still funnier with his old character). I don't think he was ever cut out for this late night host gig in the first place.
He's just not funny, that's the fundamental problem. Sure he can read other funny people's words well, but when it comes down to applying your own brain creatively and quickly to exhibit wit, he's a 0/10.
Bloody TH-cam Naming Nonsense if you have seen is interviews off set when he had the Colbert report it even when he was with the daily show you'd know that's not true at all. He is very quick and quite funny. His interview with bill o'Reilly on Fox News was great.
Nah cummon dude. I'm an Aussie and Colbert hasn't lost it. Far from it. He just wasn't of a mind to get stuck into it. Perhaps if their paths cross again he'll roll up his sleeves ... Jefferies is a lot edgier and it's his first time (I think?) on the late show. Don't forget this is a little sub culture and the US is more class-based than Australia. Colbert would be unlikely to fully engage some new dude - he'd have to do his time. I just found the contrast in their accents amazing ... Jefferies on his own sounds normal to me. Geez.
You Americans have no clue how to counter our Aussie sense of humour lol. Half of the jokes Jim just made went right over his head lol
averre mackay true
No man thats just Colbet, he's like that with everybody who's funnier than him.
Hiya averre mackay: That's because the scour America for the dumbest
people to take over these late night shows that will tow the leftist
party line to help deepen the indoctrination of the clapping seals in
their audiences. I understood it fine, although Jefferies is offbase on
his characterizations of we Yanks and our guns but that is a long,
drawn out topic that I get tired of talking about. Nutshell version is
that he is wrong.
+Anon54387 Hi, no he's not wrong entirely, he's expressing an opinion that I too share as do the majority of the sane world. We don't understand your unnecessary gun culture, lack of recognition and accountability for the ridiculous carry on for the need for weapons. We don't understand how this second amendment can be so misinterpreted and misconstrued to fit a purpose it was never meant for. It's time for it to stop, we did it you can too!, although it means needing to put a halt to the greed and corruption of the US Congress!. Gun control was not a left or right issue for us, it was and is a human issue!, a safety issue. we lost children at port Arthur and to us that's not acceptable to allow it to continue!.
And "I like guns, fuck off" is a perfectly good argument and all we should need. We're America. We like guns. Fuck off.
"in my late 20s, so 23"
i laughed like a donkey at that but no one in the audience made a peep :')
Colbert had no idea what was going on during this interview.
Colbert makes Fallon look like Ferguson.
I miss Craig; he always had a lot of verve for his guests and his interviews were great
as a single female, I need to get my ass to Australia's mining towns
Could you handle 9 men at a time ?
It is so awes seeing a fellow Aussie spreading the love.
Jefferies is absolutely brilliant. Paid to see him here in Chicago and he was worth double the price.
Colbert tries too hard to outdo his guest... don't get it wrong, I am a Colbert fan. But he should try to make the guests look good, not bad. Colbert gets nervous when the guest is funnier than him, and that's not cool.
he doesnt really try to outdo him. he barely said a word. 2 little jokes and the rest are introductions to jim's jokes.
x Yep, I don't get what people see here. Imagining maybe. Now the Bill Burr interview, that was really awfull. But I really liked this interview. My only complain is that it could be longer. I love Jim Jeffriese.
It's in his mannerisms and tone, not the words necessarily. You probably wouldn't know subtlety if it bit you in the asscheek.
He was the same with Bill Burr. He was also so terrified that both Bill and Jim would get so crude that they couldn't use the interview. They're professionals. They know they're on CBS. They aren't going to randomly start dropping f bombs for no reason.
Yeah, he also gave McEnroe an incredibly hard time in the wake of the (fair and accurate) stuff John said about Serena, so that he could keep the crowd on his side.
Jim never fails to make me laugh!
Yes they are called PRAWNS! Lmao
I love the “I say what I say and fuck you if you’re unhappy”.
Haven't seen his new show but as a stand up comedian there is none better. 'Cept George but he is passed on. RIP George.
I like Stephen's monologues about Trump but Stephen is a narcistic guy who always has problems when interviewing other comedians.
Comedians who are superior to him. His interviews with Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr are awful - you can see the disdain he has for them
I hate Stephens monologues about Trump. They're insidious & transparent. He has disdain for others & a serious case of superiority complex. I'd rather see Letterman.. OR even Trump doing interviews, any day. They'd be LOTS funnier.
You're in the minority there
The interviews with Ricky Gervais and Graham Norton aren't bad at all
WhoDarestheMAN gamer many would disagree
Finally an Australian comic in America we can be proud of.
I actually really liked this interview. Didn't think it was cringeworthy or anything like that. Sure Stephen was unprepared for good Australian humour, but that made it really interesting. They both did a good job to keep the interview going.
“Dig for something else!”
Good advice
If there's oil in australia, australia might suddenly be in need of vitamin Democracy.
Australia is like the US, only down undah!
They have plenty of Freedumbs....
@Ad Max yeah, when u lay down to yr English Lords....that is being conquered.....and lay down you did and are still doing
@Ad Max haha contradict yourself and believe what u will....good luck
We have oil, and gas, but murica won't invade, we're mostly white.
@@rivertam7827 Yea but australia is owned by the satanic illuminati and they 100% decide what australia does with its oil.
one of my favorite comedians.
Watching steven made me realise in my heart how much I miss craig ferguson.
Whos here for Avi ?
No one
Yeah that's not getting old at all.
wait what happened
"Just dig for something else."
The most aussie thing I've heard
Just found Jim,LOVE HIM
Given the state of their tech, the safest place to be is wherever NK has the missile aimed. I'd be WAY more concerned living outside Reno than in it!
lol so true!
If you're an Australian, you've also gotta love that our name is longer & harder to pronounce than Austria, so it's also unlikely that dumb donald will manage to nuke us even if he tries
Hahaha he's the funniest one. So real! #teamjim
This guy cant do an interview to save his life... most of these guests will never come back!!!
"They're already miners... Just dig for something else!" Hahaha
Jim is bloody brilliant!

Hey Kal.
Perth here.
Colbert forgot how to take a joke because he is constantly thinking about who is gonna be offended. Stop being square Colbert!
Its how people keep their jobs nowadays. Every Aurthur and Martha gets precious at the smallest things and then the media goes apeshit over it. This PC cotton wooling has gone off the deep end.
Everyones so scared of being politically incorrect its so fucking boring now! You can have a laugh surely without shitting yourself at every joke
Colbert just reminds me of a banker who wants to be a lawyer, who wants to be an accountant, who wants to be a comedian. I’ve seen squares less square, and politicians more sincere.
We don’t call them shrimp either 😳 we call them prawns 🍤 Shrimps are little things.
1:55 Thank you for clearing this up for our American (and other overseas friends)
This literally sounds just like most conversation I have with my best mate 😂 Jim isn’t even trying, this is just shit we say 😂
I love The Jim Jefferies Show!!!
Colbert is probably thinking this guys gonna be doing my show next
he wouldn't want to...Colbert is so 2000s...he's done, put a fork in him.
Pump your breaks, That man is a national treasure. Nice little quote from tropic thunder there lol
I'm an Aussie too and hes bloody hilarious
A very clever joke at the end there, "I'm sure she's Happy" Happy being one of the 7 Dwarf's and they were ......................... Miner's. Brilliant :)
Very funny as always Jim. Thank you.
Dude I wanna party wit a Australian
you're on mate. Brisbane @ Sporties this Fri night. You'll have a ball :)

Dan Edwards I thought I was - gently - being cheeky...but you need to leave this poor dude alone. Seriously. Cause you are now THAT part of the internet and not in a good way. I have two words for you: Therapy. :(
+Alice Hughes ??? leave who alone? I haven't attacked anyone... I was replying to a comment that does not seem to be here anymore, and and I was just trying to educate someone who Isn't that crash hot on Australian "history", and have a bit of a joke... so I will delete my comment... but seriously, what part of the internet have I become, because I have been on the interweb since the mid 90's... and I haven't changed a bit
Funniest Dude
Colbert should have given him longer air time You ...
Rezene Woldegebrel This is nothing mate. Wait till he has a New Zealander on the show. :D

The Jim Jefferies Show ☺☺☺
I'm Australian, have never heard of Jeffries and note that Jeffries doesn't seem to be funny at all!
TassieLorenzo
Tough to base a decision of the quality of a Comedians Career.
On a couple minutes of Talk.
I could make all types of comments of yourself for instance. But with what little is here,.. Would be unfair, and uninformed.
Maybe you just don't get Comedy lol.
...sorry, just an example ☺...
Incontrovertible proof that corporate America sucks the life out of everything.
I was in an outback opal mining town in Australia, it was the same thing, for every single girl there were 9 single guys. The lady owner of the hotel did not want to give me a room because I was single... she just didn't want the trouble and offered me to stay with her married daugher in town lol. I was single but not alone... was with 21 others, including my biyfriend. That night BEST PARTY EVER :)
Two hilarious and talented people ruined by whiney SJW politics. SAD!
I love how uncomfortable Colbert gets when he interview real comedians.
The reason Paul Hogan called prawns "shrimp" was because it was for an Australian Tourism campaign that was aimed at getting more Americans to come to Australia. So he said it as a Joke!
This is Gold.
That ending was fantastic! Pure art, PURE ART!
Jim Jeffries really does make me laugh - a genuinely witty, funny guy.
jim. jim dear boy what have you done to your teeth. jim, you've jimmy carr'd your teeth. undo it at once.
Jeffries is a snake, avi got him
Maybe you should read the truth about Avi before opening your mouth....
(Yemini’s “Independent Jewish Group” has no website, no Facebook page, no sign of incorporation, board or executive committee, or membership structure. It is not so much a group as a name Yemini made up to draw more publicity to his event. Its publicity is solely driven through Yemini’s personal Facebook profile, where he also offers a wide range of views critical of Islam, Barack Obama, Daniel Andrews, and other character assessments such as calling Victorian government minister Philip Dalidakis a “wanker” and calling for the deportation of Waleed Aly, who once made a joke about his gym on The Project.)

This is a fun chat, Stephen
I’m Aussie born, always lived up in the Top End of Australia (Northern Territory)...this bloke doesn’t even sound like an Aussie...I thought he was American when he first spoke!!
Not even stephen knew quite how to tackle Jim!😂😂😂😂
Stephen could probably help this interview out a bit by at least chuckling at his jokes.
As an Australian I am still annoyed when American's say "Shrimp" That makes no sense.
They're Prawns dammit
Wow... the failed keyboard but from 5:14 until 5:16... that was SSOOOO dead hahah.
If a guest has to say "it is a fun chat", you know he is bored to death
Colbert can't deal with "quirky" people. As a talk host (especially as someone this famous and working this long), you'd think he'd get used to it?
