In a recent episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, there was no shortage of entertainment and laughter. Host Stephen Colbert kicked off the show with his usual charm and wit, engaging the audience from the start.
Colbert wasted no time diving into the latest news, particularly focusing on former President Donald Trump and his dietary habits. He humorously remarked on Trump’s recent McDonald’s feast, jokingly comparing it to a “Jeffrey Epstein tribute band.” Colbert couldn’t resist poking fun at Trump’s choice of a filet of fish, declaring it a crime worse than any other accusations against the former president.
But the talk show host didn’t stop at Trump’s fast food indulgence. Colbert shifted gears to discuss the controversial appointment of former Florida representative Matt Gaetz as the new Attorney General. Gaetz’s nomination raised eyebrows due to ongoing investigations into alleged improper gifts and drug use. Colbert quipped that Gaetz would find all the drugs himself if he had to sniff them out. The highlight of the segment was the revelation that Gaetz had allegedly participated in drug-fueled orgies, much to the audience’s amusement.
Colbert then delved into the amusing world of politics, highlighting President Joe Biden‘s recent visit to the Amazon rainforest. After delivering a speech on conservation, Biden was captured on camera playfully disappearing into the jungle, bidding farewell to the audience with a comical “bye-bye.” Colbert couldn’t help but joke about Biden’s escapades, envisioning him starting a new life in the wilderness and teaching spider monkeys how to play cribbage.
The talk show host also addressed the unfortunate news of beloved Midwest gas station chain, Come and Go, rebranding and bidding its loyal customers goodbye. Colbert couldn’t resist making a playful pun about the gas station’s initials, stating that the “K” stood for the founder’s name and the “G” meant “gentle.” He further entertained the audience with a series of puns on the topic, showcasing his comedic prowess.
Finally, Colbert provided an amusing update on the South Carolina lab monkeys that had escaped recently. To the audience’s amusement, he shared the news that two feral emus were now on the loose in South Carolina, adding to the list of runaway animals. Colbert humorously pondered if the emus had been riding the emu-themed amusement park ride or trying to catch the elusive lab monkeys.
All in all, this episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was filled with laughter, witty commentary, and entertaining news updates. Colbert’s ability to incorporate humor into pressing matters demonstrated his unique style of engaging viewers in an amusing and lively manner.
