In Soviet Russia, talk show hosts come to you!
🤣🤣
What soviet russia??
@@GetSome-me1wd he said right, Soviet Russia, that's what still is
@@nicoloborgogno6975 just clearify me one thing what is Soviet ?? Then I will agree with your comment.
@@ty814 just search it on internet
"What is that?"
"Its Kalashnikov.."
Yesss Kalashnikov 😁😊🙃
Near the window... WHAT A COINCIDENCE
It was 74 though, not 47
@Vasilios Georgiou Kurdish people say that too 😁
And its automatic
Due to current economic hard times in Russia, this has aged pretty nicely.
It aged like milk.
😂😂😂 Fact!
Lol right
yikes!
Let's get this comment o 1 millin likes!! 😆
“Don’t be attached to thinks, be free” glad that’s his mentality, should come in handy these days. 😂
🛃🆘🚤💀
Lol 😂
😂😂
He can talk the talk, can he walk the walk?
@@truthalonetriumphs6572 i doubt it...theres one russian oligarch "crying" about how he now has to live on a $33,000 @month salary. 👀
“It’s not a secret room. That’s just another door.” 🤣🤣🤣
Loved tht😁😂
I guess in Russia all doors are secret doors.
'he's not dead, just sleeping pulse-less'
*secret door.
It's antisemitic to talk about Oligarch's secrets.
This dude has a sense of humour.
That dude is amazingly funny.
Which is surprising, cause Oligarchs are never funny, not even human, amirite?
And fucking amazungly thief, who stole tens of billions $ from russian people.
He's a Russian oligarch; he's going to charm you or terrorize you. Either way he's out for whatever you'll give him.
He's cool!
Stephen needs to do a follow up skit with Mikhail now!
Of all the oligarchs, maybe he should still be able to access some cash...
This comment tho
came here to say this haha
Lol
He's too busy crying these days
I like this guy's sense of humor, dry and dark. Then combined with Colbert's, it's Laurel & Hardy for our times. They really should do more skits.
like Marlon Brando sense of humor
"I made my fortune mining, but I haven't found my gem."
My goodness, Stephen. That's some _poetry,_ right there. 😊
"The Dems scream death as OCare goes to die."
Oh, wait, that's not Stephen.
its by tremendous guy
I bet Mikhail will use that line for sure at one of his parties xD
That line, plus that photo of a young Stephen Colbert going viral this week, I think he's earned a few new fangirls.
lazyperfectionist1 right? I loved that line 😊😍
Only a billionaire can casually talk about his yacht and nonchalantly mention that he has no idea where tf it is lmao.
NorwegianNightmare probably bc it’s being rented by some millionaire for $50k a day
This may shock you but this interview was scripted
"Dimitry, where did you moor the fucking yacht?"
"Mikhail, I don't fucking know! I was karate drunk!"
"Ah.. don't worry about it.. I'll get another one."
I wouldn't either Hahaha, it was joke.
@@forbin1185 Can you really rent a yacht for so cheap? I'd imagine it's more like $500k per day.
Mikhail has those face expressions when you go for a job interview and you find out everything you didn't want to.
I like how all the doors in his mansion are like 4 meters tall and that actually serves a purpose.
*... and 19 of her friends.*
I lost it right there
20 Russian hookers !!!
as our president would have said it _"boy, that's not golden shower... it's golden hurricane."_
After surviving that joke, anything goes.
Hookers have many friends.
the_dead_poet I thought that we the sentence that would make Colbert disappear
That dude is chill af
Hammad Ali its called vodka!
So are the billionaires in America and China
Most russians are like that
Plenty of money so never stresses about anything
More western Zionist propaganda. Putin fought against the JEWISH Oligarchs and kicked many oligarch criminals out of Russia czcams.com/video/Q2Cl8lSv9Is/video.html
Dude is so balanced, and chill. Love his vibe.
Steven is very good at his job
He makes it look easy, which is the sign of a pro
Biden pegs him. That is not an easy job.
"Don't be attached to things."
"So, can I have your yacht?"
If you're asking, you're still attached. ;)
Yeah sure! Why not. All you have to do is to search for it.
Sure I can buy like 100 more of those.
yea, but he doesn't know where it is:))
This quote is such deep that ur small brain hardly can understand the meaning of it. There is another question: who are u to him?
Ur answer on this question might help u to get this quote right but i'm not sure ur brain is able to do this, but u can try thou
Am I the only one who thinks it's scary when a big Russian man laughs and suddenly turns serious
He is a funny guy😄
420th like
Brah I thought the same thing...fucking scary lol
That is trauma from movies
@@surensargsyan1220 Funny how ? Do i amuse you ?
Even now in 2023, this is still one of the best interviews Colbert ever did.
March 2022 update: Putin forced Prokhorov to sell the NETS in 2019 due to US sanctions and as a loyalty test, according to some sources. Others say that he had grown bored with the ownership and was never in the US, so when a good offer came, he took it. Apparently he spends most of his time in France, though no word on how the current sanctions have hit him.
Or maybe it had something to do with the fact that the Nets were trash and weren't generating much revenue until maybe Kd Kyrie and Harden joined
I heard he lives in Israel now
-Do you have a yacht?
-Just a piece of advice for you, Steve. Don't be attached to things. Be free.
Horosho
I guess he's right, since he doesn't know where he left his yacht
fuckin parasite hypocrites. All they care about is HAVING THINGS, while they try and sell their bullshit like they're so un-attached to things and free. Yeah yeah.
You get to my department in Hell, I'll teach you how to un-attach, you little maggot.
Glory greatest, my little potato man.
He's just an ordinary guy with great connections and phenomenal luck.
Mark LaPolla id like to see you prove that lol
“If you said no. You would never leave the country.”
I actually died with laughter ahahaha.
.@Mission Self Improvement ...If he'll allow, that is.
better than Stephen dying in gulag
How did you make your comment if you died?
@@adem2725 : send them to Guantanamo .. or any other US secret torture prison
He has chloponika friend. Whith Natalia wife. georgia
Nobody can insult a Russian oligarch living his best 8th grader life quite like Stephen Colbert!😂
I feel like this didn’t age well but appreciate CZcams’s algorithm for showing it lol
Lets be honest
He bought brooklyn nets just so he can be a true slav with those adidas tracksuits
agree
Cheeki breeki
It's kinda charming that a Russian wears Adidas and drives a (or is driven in, I guess) a German car, given their history. Moving forward.
When he said oligarch snack and started slicing the kolbasa I was like he just a rich slav 😂
Garry Chen and to blend in because he’s 6’8
All we need is love and 9 billion dollars 😂
And then Lil' Troy's "Wanna Be a Baller" following you around as you chill with Colbert.

Who’s here in 2022
Yikes
I'm here in 2023
Im here in 2024
YEP! 😂😂
Yiiiiiiikkkkkkkkeeeeeeessssss
Joking aside, in Russia you would not mess with this guy.
Why? I mean you should not mess with anyone but.......... why?
Notismi Senpai in russia if you have money, you can pretty much do anything you want. Trust me, I’ve spent a good deal of time in russia, and the super rich get away with murder, literally.
John K the same in america
@Tim 0341 He's cruising around in an armored Maybach. It seems he's more likely a target.
All the people who think of this otherwise, clearly don’t know how things work in russia.
Don't be attached to things, be free. - Mikhail Prokhorov
But hold onto your money... all of it!
Let me be that rich il be able to afford to talk that kind of philosophical shit..
wise words from our slav brother Mikhail
@@maxk888Listen to the people who you want to become. Want to become wise? Listen to a monk. Want to become strong? Listen to a top sportsman. Want to become wealthy? Listen to a rich dude.
@@roelf8044 The difference here is that he didnt become rich trough hard work but because of his close ties to the russian government
Makes me wonder how the producers pulled this segment...
TBH that was so good 😂😂😂
Where is this oligarch now, I wonder?
Probably working out which is the least painful way to top themselves
that was fucking surreal
Prokhorov is considered to be out of favour with the Kremlin and would probably have to vacate the country and move his wealth elsewhere. The financial news group RBC which does some of the investigative journalism that is still remains in Russia on things like costs of Private Military Companies used by the Kremlin off the books or corruption and mismanagement. For that several months ago Prokhorov was forced to sell the company and editors from state media like TASS were put in charge of moderating the media's stance. The catalyst for the sale was that RBC dared report on the Panama papers and Putin's involvement in that...
Friendship with the state in Russia and its Presidential Administration is a relative term.
www.ft.com/content/37fd60b8-66b4-3b38-9286-4e7062c45229
How likely it is for an oligarch to survive targeting by the state, well you could read the old classic on Yukos and how Rosneft was created or you could read how the billion dollar company AFK Systema is being destroyed right now by Rosneft's CEO Igor Sechin.
8th Obretenov RBC is now sold to mr. Berezkin my friend
KittyCow -- But cool surreal, not Kafka surreal!
I would respectfully suggest that how cool it is versus how Kafkaesque it is depends solely on what amount of ground you have to stand on and what amount of ground you wish to stand on.
I'm not getting involved in this BS, You know exactly what I mean.
If this guy had a social media presence he would have $9 billion more. He’s funny.
Right lol he's hilarious
he would have blown dan bilzerian to dust
@@Chenrandyliu he has 100x dans money
@@32143as even more than it. u can say
*He's not that funny...* but he has chemistry. I would get bored if this show was only about him, but as a duo with Stephen it works.
I don't care about the drama. This is still one of my favorite and funniest interviews of all time.
This aged like fine milk.
I feel like Russia is just the US on hard difficulty
tahts acurate xD
😂😂😂😂😂😂this comment is life itself 😂
😂👍
No my friend... Insane difficulty!!
us is worse
Don't you think it's refreshing to see a billionaire that doesn't take themselves to seriously?
Smoothing the entry eh...
English isn't his first language so that's probably why. Not easy speaking a language you might not be comfortable in.
That adds to it though, a lot of wealthy people act arrogant and cocky. This guy seems even more "normal" being a bit awkward.
Elon musk and bill gates are others
it's an act. he is friends with putin. wouldn't let my guard down around him. i found him a bit creepy actually.
This did not age well
This has aged well haha, giving us some real insight
He has made his money with MINING, but has not found a GOLD DIGGER ????
That's where I thought he was going.. 😂😂
He knows one when he sees one.
He is not into that
Better than Colbert's line 😁
I'm not a gold digger. However I do like playing in the dirt. Does that count?
Meanwhile Stephen has a networth of like 40 million dollars and is trying to seem like a normal guy in awe of a rich persons lifestyle
Well there is a difference between 40 million and 9 billion. For Mikhail, 40 million is the same as 177k for Stephen, meaning in Mikhail's eyes, Stephen whole Networth isn't even a Ferrari
@@astPred It's just weird. Conan does the same with all his "behind the scenes" clips where he struts around in some hideous leather jacket and interacts with his underlings like he is just another guy at the office. Meanwhile he is actually their boss, is a multi millionaire and probably lives in some gated community and has Sylvester Stallone as a neighbour.
Placeholder Name Conan probably has been wearing that jacket since he started being on tv lol he’s just a fun boss. He moved his whole crew after he was done the late show
Alisher Usmanov makes that every month.
Placeholder Name Mikhail has a net worth of 9 Billion like you mentioned, Stephen has a net worth of 40 Million. This makes Mikhail 225 times richer than Stephen.
This is the Stephen Colbert of old that anyone can love. I wish we saw more of him these days.
P.S. Steven Colbert has a nightly show on CBS. You should check it out sometime. :)
@@watchingover3592 I mean Colbert’s persona when he was imitating a “serious” journalist…

hahahaha...... awww :/
sebaceous cyst
sleepy is this a fucking vice documentary?
He and Putin are dying laughing watching this together and discussing how stupid western culture is for believing that this is what Oligarchs do on a daily basis.
Everyone wants to be like our culture. We've paved the way for many.
@@Sonyuar86 Not really, European culture paved the way for pretty much everyone lmfao.
@@minerbob4334 Did someone say Europe? No seriously it's a dead end argument, just the way history evolved. But american culture, let's say consumer culture, has changed a lot in Europe too. Guess what people from East Germany wanted most before the wall fell? Jeans! American blue jeans.
@@julianmuller9567 America is just a rip off of British culture that eventually evolved to have mild differences
@@smoothcheeky8910 Hahaha. American culture is an amalgamation of European culture stemming from the European immigrants that flocked to the US of A before the 20th century. Olive Garden = Italian Cuisine. Fast Food = the insurge of demand coming from the influx of immigrants working in the US. Even American country music had been influenced by Irish and Celtic fiddle tunes, traditional English ballads and traditional music from Europe. So basically...America is literally a melting pot of European culture.
I don't think this aged particularly well but... WHY the Heck does Stephen not do stuff like this anymore. He is hilarious on remotes and with satirical interviews and HE NEVER DOES THEM ANYMORE????
stephen: "more like the brooklyn nyets?"
mikhael: "no"
that got missed but its pretty good
Very cool piece. "I have a yacht....I have no idea where it is"
His yacht has a yacht
@joe coder Exactly. So he doesn't know where his floating ruble laundry is docked. . . big whoop
That just gives him plausible deniability.
usual people: yeah i do have legos.. they must be somewhere around the house
mikhail: i have yacht
It got taken from them due to funding a war criminal…..
You think I came up with that him self? This is TV, not journalism.
- Can I call you Steve?
- Yes.
- If you said "no" you would never leave the country.
Not sure if he's joking or not...
DieWilWheatonDie I say both.
He was joking, but the smile said "I'm not fucking kidding". I legit laughed for a good 5 minutes after watching that shit it was the funniest thing all week, because it was so dark.
Wheaton
He definitely knew Stephen doesn't like to be called Steve.
He probably saw the former FLOTUS' interview where she made fun of a Stephen for being touchy about being called Steve and then answered his "what is swagilicious?" comment by saying if you don't know what swag is Steve, you don't have it.
Nick Usa
thank you from the Russian!! This was all well played according to scenario! Why people can't tell !!))) He was exactly playing what he was told to play. You can tell by his face and how hard he tried to keep his face serious! . He is a fun guy, he even tried to build cars in Russia)))
Stephan we need a where are they now video lol
This didn't age well!
A Russian oligarch walks down the street, when suddenly, a magical lamp drops before his feet. He picks it up, rubs it, and a powerful djinn shoots out.
"Ah, hello, my dear friend. You are in luck, for I shall grant you three wishes this day!" says the oligarch to the djinn.

TheFreePantheist I
I mean. I'm Russian, i don't see how that part was funny at all. Its very common in Russian culture to be very humorous and clever with words.
Russian's are not famous for that in the US at all. I live in the US. What you just described is a stereotype. I don't think you should be drawing your view of Russian people in general off of stereotypes.. It just shows how typical American's are when being judgmental like that. Russian's don't fake smile or fake kindness like you're use to in America. In Europe Russian's are very well known for their sense of humor. Also in Russia its very deep in our culture as far as jokes, anecdotes especially and almost all of which are untranslatable to English given how Russian is such a complex language.
We are also known for not smiling for no reason or faking kindness, that is considered EXTREMELY weird in the majority of Europe generally speaking especially in Russia. So i'd consider getting out more or actually getting to know Russian people instead of being so judgmental. Many businessmen and sportsmen have been to Russia and have made vlogs and talk about how they aren't cold or not nice they just don't fake emotions or randomly smile at you out of it being a habit or faking emotions. That they absolutely love it there. Yet when you actually talk to a Russian person they are extremely open up like a book and honest its just the fact of being genuine with them and actually trying to get to know them. Not stupid small talk and lame jokes, we don't enjoy dishonest or disingenuous behavior which most Americans indulge in. Not sitting back assuming they are cold or not having a sense of humor just because you haven't bothered to get to know them. I just hate how you fit the whole American stereotype perfectly. Arrogant, ignorant, yet proud of presenting these ideas that you haven't even bothered thinking through yet but still regardless pounding through proud being wrong.
Side note: A lot of the time if someone isn't laughing at your joke it might just be that it sucks. I hear people at my jobs always making horribly lame ass jokes and i never laugh at them because they plainly suck. Seems like everyone else either fake laughs to go along with it or actually is dumb enough to still be laughing at middle school level jokes. We Russian's are just in the moment and appreciate cooperation and honesty rather than disingenuous human interaction and passive aggressive behavior that i see rampant in this country.

Oh please sterotypes are hillarious, Mikhail played the sterotype to a T, everybody judges it's just part of being human. If a joke isn't funny thats one thing but Colbert is genius in this bit
FreePantheist....yes stereotypes can be hilarious i'm not talking about that though what the fuck? i'm talking about actually thinking about that about an entire nation of people christ sake man. Mikhail is a scumbag christ.
Boy oh boy.. watching this in 2022 😭...
2022 and this was good information, we learned a lot.
Honestly that Russian dude seems like a pretty cool guy.

Mikhail Prokhorov - 2,03м

would like to see him back to back with Jim Comey
Who would have thought….
2022 would lead back to this ….
"Basically a rich guy, don't ask where his money came from"
Couldn't be more accurate
What a weird dude. My guess is that he's very self-aware, and out of fucks to give.
I think most of them are.
How is not giving a fuck, weird?
It's more in the way that he *expresses* his lack of fucks to give. It'd be one thing to be aloof and apathetic, but he honestly seems to go out of his way to screw around with preconceptions.
I think he just seems that way because he does not speak the language very well.
just seems russian to me

The oligarchs actually started under Yeltsin. Putin just let them be as long as they behaved themselves.
And shared
Yeltsin was able to rise coz he allowed that. I forgot other dude, but Yeltsin made coop. Promising everyone something (and not delivering) he could stay.

TBH this is how one should do pointlessly rich.
Don't try to own all the water in the world but make up a martial art and just generally fuck about.
zcribe Prokhorov is probably a little more like Mark Cuban than Trump or Putin. He made is money when the going was good (like Cuban did in the '90s during the tech bubble), got out right before their markets went to shit, realized they had it pretty damn good and now they both fuck around amusing themselves. It's a less dangerous kind of lifestyle. Also, they both own NBA teams. The Mavs have generally done a lot better than the Nets, though...
What do you mean real? Most traditional martial arts are at best fancy way of moving. Practical martial arts serve some hand-to-hand combat purpose atleast. Traditional ones have no practical application. So why not.

Moni ka Well ,that's why I said "seems", I don't know what he's really like and what his life has been like
Moni ka guarantee you human trafficking is in there somewhere... Hmm, what would Interpol have to say about the money trail I wonder 🤔
most russians are, Lisa.
Moni ka It's not like a person can't be a genuinely nice guy *and* have good connections and a certain amount of toughness when it comes to business. Besides, the guy's huge. Being stoic at that size is probably enough to garner most people's respect and open up a lot of possibilities.
You can't usually make that much money without stealing. Especially in Russia where honest business gets destroyed or taken away.
This has not aged well.
Oh man this aged like a Russian vehicle
Stephen Colbert is SOOOOO charming, even this guy is kinda fell in love with him already...
Colbert is the gem he's been looking for
Oswaldo Contreras
lol....
Stephen seems annoying
Oh, but it was so much fun to watch "Stephen Colbert" steamroll his guests. The Laura Ingraham one is one of my alltime faves.
GAY.
Adult gets stupid rich, reverts back to being a kid.
Wouldn't you? The only reason most adults don't is because they have to have responsibilities to survive.
T-1 6:16 he did seem rather stumped for words. Like he'd never made that connection before Stephen pointed it out.
But to be fair. Aren't we all still kids at heart. I mean look at Colbert for example.
With 9 billion to take care of your responsibilities I'd be a spoiled little brat all day long.
T-1 Living the dream.
Who wouldn't do that, though.
"don´t get attached to things" ...like that yacht
remember when it wasnt taboo to be down with the oligarchy? lol wtf
Wow, okay, don't anger Stephen Colbert if he's holding a couple of axes.
CBS, pleeeeeease let Stephen do more field pieces like this! He's got Daily Show skills to use!
Colbert's always much better out in the real world.
socrappyicoulddie he kind of sucks... and does overplayed shill shit for the laugh track.
Better know an oligarch?
Very astute!
Sumner Stuart - not a laugh track. He has a studio audience.... a-duh.
Wow, that "I made my fortune mining, but I haven't found my gem" line was super good. Well done, sir.
This video sure is becoming blockbuster .
we need all oligarchs to be self aware

Jim Gorb depends on perspective
Jim Gorb life isn't black and white and there's an infinite amount of perspectives. We can choose to follow a specific one in specific situations but it's foolish to always limit ourselves to following a single one or few. Broad mindedness is a virtue. Give and take
We need a Batman-ass oligarch to buy off the government.
What are you talking about all his money was stolen from people .
