Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer and writer of THE LATE SHOW on Sept. 8, 2015.
"Amino acids... a-me no care" was such a Seth Meyers line
I care! Heard a new theory about intelligent life "where is everyone". Niels de Grasse Tyson, said the universe is not really old and humanity developed fairly rapidly. (Astrophysicists have their own ideas of "old".)
Which makes me wonder if humanity will end up being the old wise race that guides all developing species ...
Yeah that whole amino acid seemed like it was straight from ya burnt
I paused to see if anybody had commented about it, lol. Great delivery too.
Get your Jackal-ass outta here!
(Funny thing, Corrections is next in my queue)
Amino acids - Ya burnt!
Stephen Colbert is our collective and metaphorical hand warmer.
personally he's my tonton
@@rendratvandonkereschrijver2912 I truly feel like this damn
My hiccups are gone! 🤯
Thank you, Stephen! 🙏

*_GAH!!!_*
Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him.
All you need to know about how concerned the GOP is about air traffic safety.
Easier to break something than to fix anything. Fixing requires work & we became a lazy society after the greatest generation. Spoiled heirs. We are truly unworthy. Just look at DJT & minions. Give me something for nothing. Actually, I want it all by hocus - pocus and sleight of hand.
Not a T-rump fan but gotta ask. Why would the GOP not care about air traffic control? Don't they also travel by air? Or do they have their own superior
secret system?
@@vickierafael3668 Americans can never be the greatest generation because the United States is a warring empire. There are countries on this earth that don't have soldiers and their police don't carry weapons. Life can be this good.
Jan 20:
- Michael Whitaker, FAA Administrator's last day. No successor appointed by Trump.
Jan 21:
- Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen
- Trump dismissed:
- David Pekoske, Admin TSA
- Linda Fagan, Comnd. Coast Guard
- Disbanded Aviation Security Advisory Committee
Jan 22:
- Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded
Jan 28:
- Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees
Jan 29:
- First American mid-air collision in 16yrs
"The buck stops here!"
- President Harry S. Truman
Instead of taking responsibility Donald Trump blames DEI, Biden, & Buttigieg.
In other words, the Felon-in-Chief is blaming everyone and everything except his own actions.
And his mesmerized cult followers believe every lie he spews.
"Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying, We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch. President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again."
- Pete Buttigieg on X
When it’s always someone else’s fault, nothing will get fixed but plenty more will be destroyed!

@@vickierafael3668 "The greatest generation" is the one that pulled up ALL the ladders in 1981.
Reagan helmed the party of "I got mine, f*ck you", all of them from "the greatest generation" that used 'The Southern Strategy' to secure their position of power.
"The greatest generation" f*cked over their own kids, the Boomers, just as hard as everyone else.
at least Denmark did not make that vomit president
.... i guess you don't know our PM
This!! 😂😂😂
Ældgammelt Fiskeopkast might run for mayor of some small island somewhere though (stranger things have happened in our local elections)....
😂😂😂😂
Gaaaah!
"Garage Sale Van Gogh" is a great band name
Great name for a garage band.
Stephen said "van go", it's van goff.
@@johnwattdotca Wasn't that from Annie Hall?
@@johnwattdotcaYes because the British are experts on how to pronounce Dutch names. XD
@3:09, the amino acid discovery on a meteorite is actually a big deal. but I still love you, Stephen. I will give you a snickers bar if you are hangry.
He is an idiot
Yeah, it was a long march dedicated to the punchline, and not their finest moment. Ignorance is the blob's job, not Colbert's.
It's pretty amazing, actually. I'm intrigued...
I’m sure he knows. He doesn’t write all his jokes, you know?
And the "bug" is a tardigrade xD
Is it just me, or does the magical cure for hiccups sound a lot like “hold your breath for 30 seconds”?
I've actually done this one (discovered it independently on accident) and it does work, for me at least, while holding my breath has rarely if ever helped. But sometimes I can't remember how to do it or concentrate long enough to do it properly lol
not exactly it's diaphragm breathing which is known to calm the vagus nerve which is is often responsible for hiccups
@@bartman64 kinda, but holding my breath always works for me anyway, so...
I've had hiccoughs that were "cured" by drinking something cold, holding something cold against the side of my throat, or even just massaging my neck and burping intentionally.
If it’s a van Gogh, it’s been painted over by a sweet lady in Spain
Touché. You finished my idea before I fully formulated it.
That's kinda what I was thinking. At first I thought it was plausible, but the more I look at it, I'm thinkin' "Nah".
😂😂😂
@@photovincent lolol
The Artists signature is in the sleeve of the fisherman, it's not Van Gogh's.
Said the guy who didn't get what he ordered: "This is not a drill!"
And Magritte would probably also agree.
@@doug2msn It's pretty sad that audiences aren't educated enough anymore to get that joke.
@@Serai3 - I don't think that's even true. You can't confuse them for trump's audience!
@ I'm talking about Stphen's audience.
'Did that picture they sent u tick u off?'
Drill guy:'Just a lil' bit'
I was at a garage sale and I bought a van gogh and a Stradivari at the same garage sale. BUT unfortunately vangogh made the violin and Stradivari painted the picture
that's wickedly clever and very funny!
That would make them even more rare, wouldn't it? Who else could claim to have both, a famous painters only known hand made violin and a famous stringed instrument makers only known painting?
@ not necessarily van go was a rubbish carpenter and Stradivari painted by numbers and carved his initials into the painting and vanny signed the violin with a sharpie
@@stephenswistchew7720 Ah yes, good 'ol Billy van Gogh and Bubba Stradivari
Finding amino acids is actually very cool. The Earth, its inhabitants and everything in the universe are all made from the same materials.
Yeah, he either doesn't understand why this is important, or thinks his audience doesn't. Finding these things in the vacuum of space, where they definitely weren't left by existing life, adds a whole pile of credence to abiogenesis, which means it's more likely there IS other life out there.
Nah that was sarcasm XD
So we are Stardust? 🤔😉😀
what a joke company 😄
@IainG10 they didn't find anything dude. wake up
The sexy green alien bug will forever haunt my dreams.
And on the Denmark thing, you forgot Sandi Toksvig. How dare you.
Fun fact: That alien bug was just a tardigrade (dyed green to make it 'alien'), the smallest known animal with legs on this planet.
Yeah, I'm repressing that immediately.
An Orion female Tardigrade😂
@@DaylanTheAngrySauerkraut Kirk would do her.
@@EphyStorm unless I'm mistaken, and I don't know the name in English (but it might be that one), it looks like what we in Sweden calls "björndjur"
In Cyprus I had really bad hiccups and this old Greek guy walked up and told me he could stop them. He went behind me and pushed his hands up under my ribs and compressed my diaphragm. It was almost like the heimlich maneuver. He held me like that for maybe 20 seconds and when he let go my hiccups were gone.
I have done it to friends who were being bothered by the hiccups and it works every time.
3:57 I got a Seth Meyers vibe from that punchline delivery haha
I believe that they have some of the same writers. Seth is hilarious, too.
My Jackal Hackals went up there for a second. Temporarily confused me a bit.
100% 😂😂
Ya burnt!
"Doomsday chatbot of news"! HAHAHAHA!! I love that they threw in some tech references this time!
“Doing it yourself” 😂😂😂
Hot damn-the tardigrade StsrTrek pit woofie Mashup and Stephen's climactic apathy was just what I needed this Friday morning.
That's not a Van Gogh. That's a Van Gone.😊
Van stop?
Van Gone Wrong. 😅
The wheels are off the cart! Hang on, folks!
Still haven't forgotten the monologue , Tuck Frump .
I'm Danish and this is the first I'm hearing about the fish vomit! 😂 Also, salted licorice is amazing! 😍
The lead in to meanwhile… is everything. 🤣🤣💟💟
Is he trying to save NASA by convincing Lord Dampnut he hates it?
In the bit about amino acids, I almost expected him to say "Ya Burnt!"
I wonder if there’s intelligent life anywhere in the universe. On earth there’s only life that THINKS it’s intelligent. But actually it tends to choose the least intelligent as its leader.
Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV .
Whale!
The painting’s authenticity is dubious at best.
Emphasis on, "...could be..."
From Van Gogh's "Absinthe and Opium" phase.
The guy in it looks kind of like a Tibetan, I mean mainly the clothes, but the face could be Asian. Just an impression. Anyway, what would a Tibetan be doing with a fishing net! And I've never read that Van Gogh ever met or painted a Tibetan.
Actually, amino acids being found in space is incredibly important. Since those molecules self-assemble in space, it let's us understand part of the mechanism for abiogenisis. This means we are coming closer to understanding how life arises.
YES
Thanks for utilizing intelligent analysis to bring laughter into our lives.That super computer,brain trust is really paying off.
Craziness, I haven't had the hiccups in 15 years.
My old cure for stopping them was to drink water for ten to thirty seconds.
"Amino acids? Amino care!" 😂😂😂
Shades of the old Colbert Report there ❤
I still care about science over conspiracy.
Stephen s left ear (left from frontside) is doing a fun gesture, almost like waving at us ❤
5:13 that one got me
A teaspoon of sugar stops hiccups!
I wrote the same thing! Mom would have us do this. That was back in the '60s.
2:22 Did he just fart?
Punctuation for the pickle joke!!! 2:49
Certainly sounded like it
Either that or his ass is a pretty good actor too
I didn't hear anything, and I went back a few times 😅
Then again, my ears are unreliable
@@lina9535 I did the same with an ear bud in and he for sure did. With the kind of confidence that says he 100 percent didn't think the mic would pick up. Oh but it did. I giggled like a child
Thank you Stephen❤
I'm a big Van Gogh fan and I seriously doubt that the painting sold was painted by Vincent. It's not his style.
Heck, I'd guess Munch way B4 Vincent.
And it is horribly painted, which he was incapable of. It's in his brush strokes. It always shows.
I agree 100%.
2:20 catering to the pregnant people with pickle cravings 😂
I know stephen was trying to be funny with his rant about amino acids
but it really comes off as ignorant
the context of this is interesting, and it means that the building blocks of life can be made throughout our solar system, and perhaps beyond. It means that life on earth may not be special which increases the possibility of other life in the solar system, our galaxy, and the universe
2:17
That sounds like a gift someone gets for their transfem partner 😅
We f🤬ckin love pickles! ❤️
(Because of a minor salt deficiency from the popular testosterone blocker spironolactone)
Or, where my mind went, pregnant people with pickle cravings 😂
😎👍MEANWHILE...lol😹😸 My favorite part of the show! 👏 👏 👏
GAHH! Meanwhile, GAHH!😹
That monologue was amazing lol seems like Stephen had no idea what he was saying since he had no improv rebuttal, but it was golden lol I just wish it was longer
Finally a Meanwhile introduction that only computer geeks understand... :D
That Meanwhile introduction is 200 OK.
"Flounder puke" sounds like something Google would offer to translate into English, from Danish.
Flynder bræk
If I bought a 50$ painting and found out it was worth 15 million...i would give back 14 million to the original owner. 100%
More like 93.33%, am I right?
How would you pay the taxes on the capital gains then?
@@markstevenson6635 ok I would pay the tax first... 😒
It's definitely not a Van Gogh.
I loved the tuba in the band!!!
I think Stephen has vastly underestimated how much my wife:
1: Hates the cliché Valentines things
2: Loves pickles
5:20 - it's like Magritte's "this is not a pipe"
Lol didnt know about the fish vomit. As a dane I think its a weird result of Denmark trying to cope with the fish in the ocean surrounding Denmark getting emptied.
Love all the hiccup cure comments.. what’s weird is that the most recent cure I’d heard is to tell the person having them “you’re not a fish”. Stops them pronto.. I wonder if “you’re not fossilized flounder puke” would also work.😄
an edible pickle arrangement would be the perfect gift for me.
Omg,the doomsday chatbot bit hit hard. XD
The doomsday chatbot that is my segment. . .
Hiccup, breathe down eith the diaphragm. 😂😅
I can cure my hiccups instantly by emphasizing the hiccup instead of trying to suppress it. When you feel it coming just strongly breath in with the hiccup. Since I discovered that 30 years ago, I never head more than one hiccup in a row.
4:50 Actually, I think Dr. Mike told us this one: You can overload the signal being sent to the spasming diaphragm by drinking something sweet and holding the liquid around your tongue for a few seconds. This has worked for me every single time.
My favorite intro to meanwhile ever!!
How was the printed drill payed for? With printed Dollar bills?
Of course. When you want to pay for an online order, a pneumatic tube magically appears next to you so you can put paper money in it and send it to the provider.
@@thaisstone5192 Oh no. I usually just scan it so the provider can print it out.
There is something The Danes could do. Trump is crazy and getting crazier. He wants to build big buildings. The Danes could send him a huge box of legos, special edition colour gold. He could happily build all kinds of houses and casinos.
Empress Catherine The Great of Russia had a husband , Peter III who was childish and insane. He played with his tinsoldiers and Even had a tiny army that marched around in St.Petersburg.
Trump could do The same thing - build Lego buildings and have a tiny army with ridiculous Maga uniforms. Hegseth could Be general and leader of The army (all male and white). Even If you are drunk you can manage a tiny fake army
That's a lot of words to say hold your breath while trying to push air out. It does work on occasion. But a thing that works 100% of the time is thinking/saying "hiccups aren't real" and then they just go away. I've done it multiple times.
When you have the hiccups, just remind your brain, that you are not a fish!
Hahahaha!
Amino acids...A mi no care 😂😂😂
Clint from LGR had a Van Gogh? Glad it survived the hurricane!
was thinking the same thing
Does anyone else fast forward through his openings for this segment?
Get yourself a bingo card that says, "hobo"/"discarded"/"on the run"/"tired bit".
Yes, every time. 😒
Sponsorblocking through that ish 😂
Yup
lol!
4:53 The hiccup take was a perfect textbook example of the comedic Rule Of Threes.
It is the Triple Lindy of gags. What a performance. Hadn't been done successfully since 1962.
Also a perfect example of why there is no Rule of Fours.
Stephen easily could have hurt himself and the audience.
Amino acids? Amino care 😂😂😂😂
The jump scare gave me the hiccups
He sold a paint and sip painting for $50!?!?! 😂😂😂😂 what kind of expensive garage sale is this anyway.
I was a bartender for many years. THE CURE FOR HICCUPS (which I use often and never fails) is to put a full glass of water or whatever you are drinking on the ground. Breathe out as much as you can and bend over as far as you can and start drinking as fast as you can, while standing up as slowly as you can. This pushes the air out of your diaphragm. you're welcome:) I was suspicious of this technique at first...but was a lesbian working in a gay guy bar....so I tried it and was safe and nothing has ever worked better. If u r pretty and in a dive bar...maybe try it in the bathroom.
Drink ice water upside down..or just stick your fingers down your throat
Looking at the cures for hiccups, they all seem to mess with your breathing enough to disrupt the hiccups.
That's an insane amount of overkill - unless it's just meant to make drunks behave.
Just take tiny sips of liquid at random intervals (or right before the hiccup reflex kicks in, once you get a feel for it). No laying on the ground or doing breathy sit-ups necessary.
@@bilateralrope8643 Of all the comments I've screened so far, you seem to have a better grasp on the core problem than most...
Just hold your breath for 25 seconds and slowly breath out. Easy, fast and effective. Has worked for me for decades.
3:35 YES!!!! THANK YOU STEPHEN!!!!
The Smithsonian has a story about a painting that looks like this purchased at a garage sale that experts range from convinced to almost convinced to skeptical on whether it's an original Van Gogh.
Hiccup cure: drink a few oz. of water with upper lip on cup/glass while bent over from waist. This method gives me instant relief from hiccups without fail. I learned the method from a quest on the Johnny Carson show in 1971. Ironically, I had a severe case of hiccups while viewing the segment, so I thought I may as well give it a try.
Stephen this is all nothing compared to what me and me fellow human citizens are confronting every day. And we do it with pride and integrity while enduring physical and mental pain the average person couldn't even fathom!
Joseph does seem like the warmest member of the band. And I personally think he's the best ;3
(warmest to cut open and nest in?)

Thank you man. That is useful info. 👍
If your not watching from 1:05 at least there's something wrong with you. So no it starts at 1:05..

That alien giving birth on Meanwhile was kinda nice. They’re just like us.
Didn't Nicole Kidman already do the Colbaire Questionaire? Can't we get someone fun like John Oliver? I bet he's done it too. What about an alpaca? What do think an alpaca thinks about at night while its trying to sleep?! SEE, COMEDY GOLD. You're welcome, I am available for hire and will work for the same cereal that Seth Meyers gives his interns.
I did have a temp position in which I recondtioned used GAMEBOYS. Colbert's description brought back the memory.
Cure for hiccups: Teaspoon of sugar. It calms the nerve in your throat that causes the hiccups.
4:40 I figured out something like this as a teenager. Its not necessary to have your mouth open at any time. The doctor has forgotten that breathing can happen through the nose. It's probably easier if you play a woodwind or brass instrument and know how to control your diaphragm while breathing. Sometime we need to reboot our diagram to stop our nerve triggered spasms. Also, try to figure out and address the underlying original cause of the spasm, e.g, rehydrate.
There are some extremely intelligent pioneering doctors, and then there are doctors who think they are pioneers and more intellectually superior to anyone else, when they just use a bit of common sense. 🙄
The way Americans pronounce Van Gogh will never fail to amaze me. Just why? Why??
Oh, and that painting is fantastic.
You "should care," because amino acids are the building blocks of life. A little heat and the amino acids join. After they join, they start reproducing. And that is the beginning of life!
Thanks for keeping us entertained while our world falls apart kind of like the violinist in Germany
Meanwhile starts at 1:48
Yeah, I figured out how to stop my hiccups 20 years ago.
Legit, the only thing that has gotten rid of my hiccups is singing "Happy Day in Hell" from Hazbin Hotel.
Nothing jump-starts my diaphragm like that song for whatever reason. I suffered without it all my life until I heard it. Now I can rid myself of hiccups by the second verse.
The cure for hiccups is, "Hiccups don't exist". It works every time.
Steven's on fire tonight 😂
Man, that was a sad Meanwhile intro.
I love those pickles!!!! I will buy that.
If we had hiccups, Mom would have us eat of teaspoon of sugar and drink a glass of water. This was in the '60s, and she knew tons of stuff. Idk how it worked, but it did.
Dammit, I should've said something! Anytime I've felt the hick-ups begin, I take a deep breath, hold it for as long as I can, and then slowly exhale. It's worked literally *every* time, and I've been doing it for about 20 years!
Nothing says Hoping for Pregnancy than a bouquet of pickles for Valentines day.
As a bandleader, who budget can afford 2 percussionist.🎉 Wow🎉
When Steven said rumors, the band should have starter playing some Fleetwood Mac.
That's actually how I stop my hiccups! My dad taught me!
Silly Stephen ❤😂
the third GAAH got me.
Don't get the pickles! Go for the Oedipal Arrangement!
