I have to say, I adore Stephen Colbert with all my heart

Oh my God! I feel so seen. That’s exactly why I have ever watched Stephen Colbert, “We’re here to tell you you’re not crazy.” He said. Thank you!🙏🏽

Colbert and Seth got me through the last four years. Looking back I truly had a broken heart and they were a life preserver in all the craziness

Oh, Mr. Colbert, my 18 and 12 year old do so love you, and Jon Stewart, and John Oliver. They will look back and you will be their Jack Par, Johnny Carson, Jack Benny. Thank you for helping them not feel insane while providing some laughter.

“In a time where there are so many ugly mouthpieces saying things that aren’t in our hearts, it’s wonderful to have you out there fighting for us, and doing it for us.” Perfectly said. 🙏🏼

"Laughter is an instant vacation" ~Milton Berle

That's one hour and three minutes of my life I gladly will not get back. Colbert is great but my life will never be complete until I get to see the "Grand Fatherland" piece again from his Daily Show days.

Love Stephen, he always come across as genuine and decent as well as being funny.

I'm in England so I don't get to see Stephen Colbert on TV so I have to rely on clips on KZfaq. I love him.

I’m watching this during the pandemic and Colbert haven’t had an audience for over a year. He’s still doing great though, but I bet he misses his audience. But I love hearing Evie laugh in the background now. There’s so much love between the two of them

Thanks Stephen. We need your humor to get through these somber times. ♥️

Stephen Colbert is awesome. As a Brit I must confess I hadn't heard of Pete Holmes but really enjoyed viewing this, very entertaining. Thanks for sharing.

What a wonderful interview. Normally I would have been turned off by all the Jesus talk (just had some really bad experiences with Southern Baptist churches), but I so enjoyed even the religious discussions here. Much love to Stephen and Pete. Two great comedians!

Pete did a great job, interesting conversation.

I could have listened to another couple of hours of this.

”We can’t be afraid and laugh at the same time.”

14:35 - "Pretty good" is an understatement from Stephen about his current work load. He does new shows Mondays thru Fridays, however Friday editions are always pre-taped on a Thursday alongside Thursdays edition, meaning Stephen gets Fridays off. 200 shows a year means roughly 10 weeks vacation breaks, so compared to normal people, along with a $15 million salary, Stephen is doing fantastic!

Thank you for letting us be a part of this.

Love & need your monologue to feel normal & not alone in what I"m thinking. Your show does exactly that!

He is on my list of ideal dinner guests (living or dead), coincidentally enough. Fascinating guy.

Being Alone is Awesome Stephen !! Being in rural TX and comprehending humanity is a sentence to solitude itself! But YOU give us quality time.. it’s just that it’s more real for U than US. The “gianting” process that accompanies stardom is hard won for this blade. Sharpest wit in the land. Easier for a Southerner to go west than a Cali’n to go South.. keep up the great work SC.

Absolutely brilliant and I couldn’t stop laughing and I definitely need more of Stephen Colbert and Pete Holmes together.

There is not a reason on Earth for him to actually do this in practice, especially in the moment/space, but I cannot stop being stunned by the fact that he sets the Oyster and the tool down while talking. Watch it again. 48:11 He sets them down and closes the scene.

Wow, Pete Holmes ended this with just the perfect summary of why we love Stephen so very much

What a memory Stephen has! Very impressive.

Octogenarian Colbert fan appreciates truth being presented up front and crazy being called by its right name. He informs, doesn't pontificate. Oh, if more of the world would emulate him.

I can't believe I had a 30 min conversation with this guy in Atlanta a few years ago and had no idea who he was till ppl started telling me when he left and even then I didn't know who he was. What a cool dude

Why did I now know about this, what a treat finding it, thank you.

best thing Ive watched!!!! Stephen Colbert is amazing!!!

Man, I haven't read the comments, but I hope they are great. There are few intelligent voices in this world today as balanced and collected as Stephen. I loved this, and really also like you, just, anyway, a very great video with great people!

. Okay. I really hope the right people see this and do something with this. . I have just seen the Google interview and I must go back to others that I need to collect in one place. . I have taken to looking for these interviews with Steven Colbert, collecting them and paying close attention t them. They are like lesson packed lectures and I learn so much from them. I have decided, Mr. Colbert, that 1.) these interviews should be collected and packaged for college level instructional purposes and/or 2.) they should be the basis for a textbook for theater, public speaking and related arts. . The thing that makes these work that way and so well is how insightful and self aware you are about what you are doing and feeling and how well you articulate those things to the point of finest nuance. . This is valuable stuff. . Is anyone reading this? Is there anyone in the entertainment field that could do something?

Guh! I’d LOVE to just sit and hang with these two for a couple hours and talk about Thomas More, Spinoza, and the integral necessity of doubt in faith.

Thanks for helping us to feel less crazy! Amazing that the Late Show writers create their brilliant jokes in the last 1/2 to 1 hr before the show and there is no rehearsal! :)

This was truly wonderful from start to finish. More, please!

The way he talks is simply exquisite!

This was excellent!

Finally took the time to watch and really enjoyed the interview as I enjoy both Stephen and Pete a great deal. Both are talented talkers. 🙂

Pete Holmes / Stephen Colbert AND "Tte 700 Club Gone Awry" William Paley AND "Would Immediately Renew Gunsmoke For Another 20 Years iIf Brought Back From The Dead" Note: this joke is an exprewsion of love & respect. It is modled off of a recurrring gag that the show does nightly: picture of said person AND "what they resemblein the photograph". That was awesome. Love Colbert; his humor, & perspective. The 'John Ritter-ish' Pete Holmes was the perfect host.

Thanks for saving my sanity during these past few years!..(and still!)

I love the bit about "how does this matter in eternity", puts everything into perspective :D

I was there - Stephen is hilarious! I would love to attend another show of his, whether scripted or not.

Meanwhile...... The best parts. Apart from Coveton House, of course.💕💕💕💕💕

Send help. can't stop watching and listening to such an engaging intellectual kind human.

Colbert is brilliant. Simply the best. Don't know who this host is but whoever he is, he needs to rethink his socks.

My anxiety can be brutal. I fall asleep to comedy every night. It has to be something I have watched enough times so that I can SEE the facial expressions in my mind with my eyes closed! It is my version of a sleep med. Whatever works.

I like Stephen Colbert even more... after watching this❗️😜🎯🇺🇸🌊🌊🌊

There will never be a Stephen Colbert interview that is too long for me to enjoy ❤️ this man is a gem. Also him and Pete have fantastic comedic chemistry, what a great interview!

An absolute delight. I loved every second of this. See you at Arby’s!

The thing about late night show, its taped at 5:30 PM in the and aired at night. But Steve does start at 5:30 am.

46: "You can see - it's a wafer!" Pete's intonation is hilarious and brilliant.

Wow, what a wonderful and inspiring show from both.

So gifted ❤️

When Stephen straight ripped through the seven words, that was a glimmering moment

Fantastic interview. Thanks gentlemen.

The stage manager's ears are as red as those chairs somewhere offscreen 😂

Such a cool cat. Thank you for what you do. I really appreciate you.

this was way too short, I love when Stephen talks about religion and spirituality

Stephen could make a cool, middle-aged Mr. Fantastic whenever Marvel reboots Fantastic Four

Love it! Thank you

Could have listened to this for hours!

Stephen, you most definitely are NOT crazy, and you let me know daily that neither am I. I am so grateful for the community I've found with you ❤ and the like-minded in your audience. Thank you for reinforcing my sanity with soul-refreshing laughter 😂😱🤪🤬🤣💞😁😉😍

I LOVE Stephen! Wish I was there in the audience.

Wow, these boys are magic together!

How atractive are intelligence and humor! Stephen is a delightful, beautiful man, having an hour-long conversation that is funny, informative, heartfelt. For some reason I don't feel a Republican is able to carry out an experience like this. I don't know of any. If you do have an example here on KZfaq please send me the link. I'd love to watch.

@47:50 - 48:15. This is a great subtle bit that Stephen ALWAYS does, where he hands off his gesticulated props 😆😆😆

Pete needs a talk show back, he’s such a good interviewer. Maybe on a different platform.

Wish I could👍 s million times! 🙏🙋🏻‍♀️💕

Wow a lot of work everyday for that show no wonder it’s so good👍🇺🇸

I told Steven before. Nothing like Vince. Proud of you.

Love listening to Stephen speak! So glad I came across this!! ❤❤❤

”That’s what we want: to not be alone.”

"But we'll be at Arby's" 😂

Love this!

I couldn’t love Stephen Colbert more! 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣💜

30:05 i know, it's infantile, but damn, i need those few seconds clip of Stephen cursing and not being bleeped out, and not blushing 😂🤬😅

Thanks.

Colbert is a great guy and wonderful entertainer.

"He turned water into listerine once" Not even 5 mins into this and I'm already dying 😂

I really enjoyed this...Thank you.

Love your comments on faith, SC. Thinking Christians CAN hold the tension.

34:19: "I've been called the Pope of television." I think he's joking, but Jon Stewart actually describes him that way in their Flipped Interview!

Pete and Stephen! Such a great companion to the YMIW episode

Love both these guys so much.

Man, that was so good

Great guys.

i watched this for Stephen but anytime i see Pete Holmes do anything, i have to run and go watch his batman series on collage humor. if you haven't seen it OMFG run don't walk.

Love Stephen Colbert 💗

Stephen, you're welcome.

stephen, if you're going to hell, save me a seat. you won't be alone!!

Oh my gosh, his blood pressure must be off the charts right now.

Loved watching & learning from this interview. Superb!

Cross between John Ritter and prince William

great interview!

Crap! You two made me watch a religiously themed video from one end to the other. Thanks anyway, you're great people, Pete and Stephen... Much respect.

Each night millions of Americans take Colbert's tip.

Dirty squirrel cage... that was the funniest thing I've ever heard!

A person with class

“These are not for our butts.”

'... I don't think what I'm saying is important, I don't think it's gonna change people's minds (38:00), I don't think I'm a political player, I don't think I should be taken seriously, but I do think I feel seriously about what's going on in the country... and I'm there to make everybody feel better, to know that they're not alone in that feeling.' If we could just internalize all of that, we'd all be better off, be on the road to recovery, on our way toward amicability, capability, rationality and progress. We'd give our politicians more breathing room to be responsive, make fewer enemies, let people speak their minds, get others to hear our points of view, be less paranoid, less untrusting, less resentful and lots more charitable. What's keeping us from reason, common sense, unity, risk-taking, intellectual curiosity, optimism, opportunity and productivity is ourselves, not our leaders; they're reacting to us. Honey attracts more flies than vinegar; the system's never going to improve, will never be given the attention it requires, unless we allow people to focus upon what needs to be done and make our messages more inviting, less biting, rather than constantly giving leaders fodder for their excuses, excuses for not focusing on the tasks set before us. Foster agency, expectations naturally rise, humility increases, hubris dies, respect replaces contempt, equity is earned, people work with you, good occurs. Look no further than John Lewis for the example. Giving up on changing people's minds is perhaps the greatest takeaway from this quote; we abandon that pursuit, people don't have to, nor would we want them to, as their perspective greatly strengthens our own. Could be, in passing, Stephen solved our present, most pressing problem nearly two years ago.

This was an excellent discussion. I might suggest to Pete that he allow the guest to answer the question fully before interjecting with his own story. I know this was probably more about anxiety or interview style than anything, but it can come across as off-putting. No offense.
