@@chuyocaca4153 "Stroke victims" have occasionally reported smelling "burnt toast." I believe that is what you are referring to (although that meaning is different from what you were saying, not some pleasant memory of bread baking).
As tame as that was, Jake is always a delight. And "There is stuff happening, okay?" is probably my favorite off-the-cuff answer I've heard so far. (Since the segment started, I feel like many of the people have had one in the bank.)
You can't argue with the truth of it, and it has a lovely bit of added defiance/despair 😂 I tried to come up with five words off-the-cuff too and got "Life continues until it doesn't"
Yeah I find it way more humorous than I probably should that two of the longer tangents he went on were ‘I hate spiders and the noises that spiders make’ and ‘I like the illusion of control the window seat gives you’re
Wait, I think this is the first time I feel like I truly *know* the guest just because of their answers. And it makes me absolutely love how goofy he is. 😊
especially how he responded with the last two answers, yep already knew he had an amazing sense of humor and wit, but this was awesome and felt more authentically personal
Stephen, you've got a crazy-good way of getting chummy with your guests. And Jake, you're so chill and open, each time feels like we're getting another sneak peek into your world.
I can guarantee that somewhere there’s already some guy selling T-shirts saying ”There is stuff happening, okay?!”. I hope Jake gets royalties, ’cause one of the greatest sayings has been born!! 🔥
Actually, a similar saying exists in 2 my languages. And it was born in the 1980s and made popular in 90s. Reborn something like a year ago for the youngest generation. It is for ever, I guess 😂
I love these segments - but I would really love to see an unedited version online. I get that they need to cut it down for broadcast, but why not share the full version here. This time, only 10 of the 15 questions made it into the video. Please, release the full version(s). Would make for nice extra content to even re-release older ones in their entirety!
Not only he is very HOT he is also very nice. I’ve seen him in a Broadway play where he was amazing. But like right after the play my friend and I met him at a red light, gushing over the fact that he was very great during the play. And he was like so genuine.
Jake, looking great. I love to see these actors, after I haven't seen them for a while, and see that they're keeping fit and healthy. Jake looks YOUNG.
@@darktheories1758 Fantastic movie! I hadn't thought about either the original movie or Jake Gyllenhaal in years and now I can't stop rewatching the new one, and all Jake's stuff. Road House is big dumb fun, but it does try to have a more serious side too, and Jake squeezes every drop of potential out of the script.
I fell for Jake when he starred in “October Sky”. He was phenomenal! That’s a great movie, for those of you who have never seen it, and based on true events.
Lol. I'm totally going to use the "There is stuff happening, Ok?" when I'm visiting with family and they ask about my life but but don't necessarily want to talk.
"There is stuff happening, okay?" love love love love it. So much so that I'm going to go back and collect all the five-word answers from other Colbert Questionert respondents.
Such a great actor with a scary talented career. His transformation from night crawler to South paw is absolutely insane. On the same level as Christian bale in the machinist to batman begins. Just a little less dangerous.
In the movie “day after tomorrow“ Jake Gyllenhaal was a student, and the climate was radically changing… He was with a few schoolmates flying to New York for a competition between schools and the plane hit some incredibly bad turbulence… Jake was extremely panicked.
I don't know if there's a scientific reason behind this, but I entered this interview with an outstanding neutrality about the guest, and by the end of the questionnaire, I actually cared about him ! What a gift it is to be known (':
I love the questionert in general, but this was particularly tasty. Their chemistry was great, especially on the spiders. Jake’s strange energy was on fire. There is stuff happening, okay.
OK, it's on. I always feel weird when I see celebrities out and about (I live in NYC) and I'm not sure if I should approach them. If I'm a really big fan, I usually go for it. (For the record, literally everyone I've met has been really nice.) Jake is literally the #1 celebrity that I would like to meet. There are other big ones, but I've met a lot of them. He's definitely top of the list and if I ever see him, this interview has given the green flag to say "hi." Maybe I'll carry around meringues just in case. LOL
I live in Los Angeles and have the same feelings. I actually feel even stranger, I feel like I’m sort of seeing a wild animal in the forest and I don’t want to disturb them. But occasionally I have risked a quick hello or a nod. There’s a deli where this happens on the regular. I too have had largely nice reactions. I would love to “run into” Jake as well but it’s unlikely as he’s a New Yorker 👍👍🤷♀️
@@michaeljones6340 Sorry, I'm just seeing this now. Better late than never, I guess! LOL I've met Taylor Swift twice when she was much younger. I've also met Daniel Radcliffe, Willie Nelson, Kevin Jonas (we actually go to the same dermatologist), Bradley Cooper, Hugh Jackman, Gabriel Byrne, Michael Shannon, Sarah Paulson, Elle Fanning, Jim Parsons, John Mulaney. I think those are the really big names. Jake and Denzel Washington are doing Broadway next Spring, so I definitely plan on tracking them down. I want to see the show, but I also may find myself conveniently lingering around the theater. LOL
spiders can make sounds A vibrating sound by rubbing their body parts together, called stridulation. This is often used to scare away predators or attract mates. A drumming sound by tapping their legs or abdomen on the ground. This is also used to communicate with other spiders. A chirping sound by rubbing their fangs or palps together. This is usually done to avoid being eaten by other spiders. A hissing sound by forcing air out of their spiracles. This is a sign of aggression or fear.
For the last couple of years (or however long this segment has been running) I've been utterly *convinced* that the number Stephen is thinking of is nine, due to its relevance in Lord of the Rings, and Stephen's love of those stories. Now he's said that that's not it, I have absolutely no idea what his number is.
I'm pretty sure I know which number he's thinking of. I guess we'll find out if I'm right if I ever become famous enough to end up on his show and take the questionnert.
@@sparkythancztwise Well, of course. It's an essentially impossible question. He doesn't even specify that it's a real number; perhaps it's a complex number. OTOH, there's a natural number I'm deeply surprised no one has guessed, for it is, after all, the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything. He's the right kind of person for that to be his number; and, if it isn't, someone should still have tried it because it would have been funny.
oh my god somehow these questions and stephen colbert's relationship with them bring out their true self. i've never seen jake act so weird and goofy before.
I am laughing so hard, I was just re-watching "October Sky" one of my favorite of Jake's films and I had it on pause while I took some time on the internet. Just happened to decide to browse UA-cam and here he is as your guest!!! Great surprise and coincidence🤣👏👏
I'm a big fan of bacon, tomato and cheese sandwiches, but we grow a lot of tomatoes and nobody loves cooking when it's +30 C out in the summer. These can be 'cooked' in a toaster oven, and a really good one will blow you away. TBH tomato and buttered toast sandwiches are also very good, tomato is a great topping if you have good tomatoes (so grow your own!). I think that's about perfect for John C, I'm sure he wasn't getting mobbed for his signature back then (and probably still isn't), but he does pretty good work all told, with a lot more range than most actors. He deserved that snack!

The part about driving with his dad got me...much respect.

@2:53 Yes. Spiders make sound when they hunt. If you listen using micro-microphones, you can hear them... "mmmm gonna getcha biatch muahahaha."
Stephen, you've got a crazy-good way of getting chummy with your guests. And Jake, you're so chill and open, each time feels like we're getting another sneak peek into your world.
I just realized I've been crushing on Jake for over 20 years. Ever since I first saw Donnie Darko. He's gotten only better with age.
It's awesome he's 42 and giggles like a middle-schooler
i love his laugh.😅 and I want to hug him!

I love Jake's face in the opening of this video LOL, Like an amused child
What a great actor and nice guy.
Steven saying “It’s air, the air is fine” about the window seat had me literally spit out my drink hahahaha
One of my favorite actors: Donnie Darko, Brokeback Mountain, Night Crawler. Excellent films and performances.
And a 20 yr old Jake in The Good Girl with Jen Aniston
Not only he is very HOT he is also very nice. I’ve seen him in a Broadway play where he was amazing. But like right after the play my friend and I met him at a red light, gushing over the fact that he was very great during the play. And he was like so genuine.
"There is stuff happening, okay!!" with Stephen going through his Appendicitis pain, that's a great way to describe 😅
He's so freaking easy on the eyes.
So hot loved him since brokeback with Heath
He’s dating a girl half his age. He’s a creep ❤
"Real Emotional Girl" from Trouble In Paradise is the one from that album I really love. Actually, both 'Girl' songs. "Same Girl" is also terrific.
This gorgeous man does not age!
yes, he's aging, stop with this bullshit.
I love that man! He's just so down to earth. Funny & a great actor. Yep. It's puke for me too. Lol!
No, just another dysfunctional Thespian...and I say that w respect!! 😂
He’s actually very down to earth and not weird like most celebrities when you meet them.
So very true, not to mention he’s actually gorgeous as well.
He seems nice. But he is not funny. All his jokes are awkward, like you feel sorry for him. Like aww nice try on that one
cat pee
Jake, looking great. I love to see these actors, after I haven't seen them for a while, and see that they're keeping fit and healthy. Jake looks YOUNG.
He is a whole other level of fit. Elwood Dalton in Road House, and the movie was really really fun.

Finally, someone said fresh baked bread. Seriously nothing is better than that.
For me, it’s a tie between freshly baked bread & vanilla. 💗
@@nylorij-Lorivanilla🤢🤢🤢 bread yes!!
Jake is such a cool fella 😂
Smell: Baked bread. This man is my soul mate! 😍
I read he got into baking sourdough bread during the COVID-19 lockdown.

Jake is the type of guy to be awesome to be friend with.
Tuna melt is a good shout
The tone of voice is soothing
Fine af lol.. and i enjoyed this immensely
Love Jake’s cool memory of watching John C Reilly on True West on Broadway with Philip Seymour Hoffman!!! Wow!!!
The ability to check what’s going on when the plane gets bumpy is EXACTLY why I like the window seat too, Jake!!
Jake is so handsome ❤️🔥
He's very good lookin
Favorite song… was I the only one hoping he would say, All Too Well, Taylor’s Version 😂 That would’ve been hysterical! 😮😝😂
Same same
@@DanielleSouthcott does someone need a hug? Happy Birthday, Taylor 🥳
I was kinda waiting for someone to shout it from the audience.
I was thinking the same
Such a great actor with a scary talented career. His transformation from night crawler to South paw is absolutely insane. On the same level as Christian bale in the machinist to batman begins. Just a little less dangerous.
Makes total sense that Donnie Darko himself would want a window seat. Have to make sure that the engine is there or not ;-)

@@divinewon73 That's a good point! I love that movie. Probably my favorite disaster film :)
not "the illusion of control"? at 5:20

I loved his last answer to describe the rest of his life in 5 words and he said……there is stuff happening, ok! 🤭
He’s a cute guy!
Love the look on Jake's face that says "did you just threaten to vivisect me?"
that movie Enemy makes a lot more sense now
That was so cool! Kind of brought a tear to my eye. Love him even more now. ❤
7:00 captions say, "i love ballet" instead of "L.A." lol
He WAS in that LGBTQ movie with The Joker guy.
I love the questionert in general, but this was particularly tasty. Their chemistry was great, especially on the spiders. Jake’s strange energy was on fire. There is stuff happening, okay.
JAKE IS MY FAVE!! LOVE HIM!
Fun fact for Jake: tarantulas are not slow. Nighttime, heading back to the desert nest, they are up high on their legs and lightning fast...
“there is stuff happening ok” inspirational 🤩
Aesthetically pleasing!💞

I was a fan since he was in October Sky, but him not knowing that a spider is an animal really stresses that relationship!
When two smart, fun people (who generally like and care for other people) get together = this
When he responded, "sure." I immediately wanted to see Bubble Boy II.
Always a favorite segment but this one was extra cute !
