There is one gentleman who loves every single one of his jokes and has a very distinctive laugh. I must find this man.

My god, he was somehow fully in character and fully himself in one moment. It's Schrodinger's Colbert!

"And that's the Wørd" that was perfectly seamless. He really just did a segment from his tv show on a speech and it not only worked but was inspirational as hell.

Just watched Maya Rudolph's speech at Tulane (2015) and her 'Yes and' advice reminded me of this.

thanks for posting

Great speech. He quoted himself from this on Oprah recently. I wish I could have him at my ceremony when I graduate. xD

OMG STEPHEN SUGGESTED THE WALL TRUMPS WANTS TO BUILD 13:50

I want him there for my graduation haha

If you're being serious, he's referring to the 3/5 Compromise.

5:36 what are those.

Wow, that's harsh, withholding his diploma like that. I was allowed to process at my graduation even though I still had one more class to complete. I believe if you only have one more class, they allow you to walk. Now that I think of it, I wonder if I actually got my degree...well, I didn't get a yellow legal pad paper, I know that much.

i dont get the 3/5ths of a beer joke

poop
