As someone currently writing up her dissertation thesis I def watched that clip a few times try and get a contact high 😅
@@poopsonastick13 Good Luck on the dissertation.
Why didn't you graduate?
@@hmq9052 The experiment went horribly wrong the second time around.
@@B00s3 thanks i hate it here. But i still love the work so I’m gonna make it! 💪🏽
“Shrieking inbred evolutionary cul-de-sac” is powerful literary construction. Brilliant writing as always

Alabama?
The Necrobots?
This whole segment was above-par!
Yet the first scenario he described was inbreeding while the second, which include this phrase, was so far outbreeding that it was inter species
"it was.....turbulent?" There could be no better way to deliver that punchline. 😆
agreed wholeheartedly
😂
He really landed that joke
It was the airplane "ding" for me! 🤣🤣🤣
Im a bit tired of airline jokes. Only people like comedians who are on planes all the time think they're funny. Sorry, but airlines are NOT a part of everyday lives for most people.
Best part of the Necron Spiderpocalypse at 3:19 "...we placed a needle in it, not knowing what was going to happen..." opening line to a Zombie Robot Spider Horror movie, if I've ever heard one.
This is literally a "They were so busy asking if they could to bother asking if they should" moment.
Maybe they can have an exchange program with the AI people who seem to have the opposite problem.

yes. i don't think there will be any benefit from manually actuating dead spiders, long known to use hydraulics for their legs..

I assume you're talking about Jet Blue buying Spirit Airlines? 😃
Such a simple and direct “nope”
And then moving on to the next bit really cements it as a classic
No follow up or expansion of the contest; just “nope”
I guess the contest included answering questions about what is their bread, what is their tuna, and what is their chicken.
I saw that coming from a mile away and it was still AWESOME!
I was waiting for that as the spider punchline, then got it right after
Was great
Colbert's comedic timing is impeccable. And his writers know how to set the pace of his monologues to take full advantage of his mastery of the craft. What a perfect show. 👏👏👏
🎶Necro-bot, Necro-bot, does whatever a... dead spider with a needle in it can! 🎶
😂
"Can he swing,
from a web?
No he can't,
He's a corpse!"
@@davidlundquist1979 brilliant 😂
Accurate 😆
I about fell out of my chair when Stephen said, "Want a free Subway Sandwich for life...NOPE!!!" 😂🤣😂🤣
same lol
it is the only true answer
Best line in the video.. 😂😂😂
I was saying to myself, "I really hope he just moves on." Then he did just that.

_Only a good guy with a necrobotic spider can stop a bad guy with a necrobotic spider._
Only Stephen Colbert could do a story like this on spiders despite him having a spider named after him and still have my entomological arse love him :)
That chat with St Vincent was so sweet, I’m glad she’s been on this week as I’d never heard of her before p, not a lot of room in my Spotify list which is filled with The Prodigy and The Crystal Method. I’m so glad to go through her amazing catalogue.
Überzone, Juno Reactor, Pendulum, Propellerheads fit nicely with what you've been listening to.
She's amazing, isn't she?
First day I thought "Great guest artist!"
Second day - "Oh, wow! Double up!"
Third day - Started hoping she was a new steady band member.
Today - A little sad. But still, it was nice...
Look her up playing at Austin City Limits. The New York video is another favorite.
She’s extraordinary. He used to have her on the old show, which is the first time I saw her. Check out her collab with David Byrne.
really respect how you and your staff always seem to be giving love to deserved talent.
I have a feeling that Stephen once had a very bad experience flying on Spirit Airlines.
I have a feeling that anyone who has flown with Spirit Airlines has had a very bad experience
At least. I suspect his writers have flown the Spirit too
Do you know anyone who flew Spirit Airlines and *didn't* have a bad experience?🤔
@@kharma7755 Spirit is either terrible or terrible. There is no middle ground
doubt it, they're a budget airline and he's rich AF
"Big news in travel news, otherwise known as Hudson News..." that's an underrated joke!
Well, we all know nothing bad ever came from a combination of necromancy and robotics.
Necrons? Never heard of them.
Goddamn pls not Necrons. Give him Orks, give me Tau, but pls not that
We're one more step closer to servo skulls

@@stephenneal23 wouldn't mind seeing a dreadnought walking around haha
@Eszrah I can totally imagine thé scene 2. The emperor’s just going “Ok, so first, I make a movie star president for some reason. The Nurgle takes over for like 3 years, then I have humanity start building Necrons…”
Meanwhile there’s 2 Custodes in the back wondering what the fuck he’s doing
I literally LOL at “Want free subway for life? Nope!” 😂🤣😂
“Free Subway sandwiches for life” sound like a prisoner’s ongoing punishment for a life sentence.
The worst part is they hand you your sandwich using a dead camel spider.
Unless you're Jared...
m.czcams.com/video/Y1pZE07vSfI/video.html
You'd save a fortune on airport food though!
I actually enjoy subway sandwiches
More than the actual Meanwhile segment, I can not express how much I truly and thoroughly enjoy the precursor word salad that introduces each Meanwhile segment…Steven; please please please release a book with all of these introductory word salads. You’ll make a fortune. Alternatively, as you characteristically often do, you could donate the profits to some worthy charities.
I'd buy the hell out of that book!🤓
I can see the charity as providing salad and other veggies to people in need. The could have Mandy's to co-sponsor the thing.
Pleeeeaaase
I would buy this book!!!! Truly one of the geniuses of our time!
YES YES YES YES, YES!!!! St Vincent is so brilliant and clever. Such a creative treat to have her and so glad she could work in in the schedule as musical guest for the WHOLE week. This makes me very happy. Love the picture of the young Annie Clark and younger Stephen together. Cute!
5:06 My own six-word horror story: "I thought _you_ hired the clown..."
I took a spirit flight home to Detroit from Myrtle Beach this year, I had to pay extra to get my fiance and I seats together, then found out they only allow small bags as carry ons, not the industry standard 22' bags every other airline takes, so we then had to pay to check our bags. Then we passed on the not so complimentary refreshments, pretty sure had we needed to use the restroom there would have been a credit card reader on the door too.
Actually there's a fee for NOT using our bathrooms, so we're going to need to charge you for that, too!
"Enter into the loving arms of Dereg Airlines" 😖
22 foot bags
How cheap was the flight though
@@robo5013 Imagine running to catch your flight with 22 foot rolling luggage. 🤣
„the shrieking evolutionary cul-de-sac“ - that was one of the better introductions in recent times.
The Spirit stuff is good, but nothing will ever beat Jon's "Arbys, Challenge Your Stomach to a Fight."
No, it is the Amazon camping commercial.
St.V is brilliant. Love that she's on the show this week. I
Hope some of the music becomes available.
I'm honestly surprised that no one tried the spider thing sooner, we've known about them having hydraulic muscles for a while.
They've been playing with the webs
This is pretty tame tbh. There's another group of scientists that are experimenting with controlling live flying insects by attaching electrodes to their brains. They want to direct them to pollinate plants.

“Spiders and Snakes are solitary creatures. Imagine how scary I’d be if they ran in packs?” - Karl Smallwood

@@DJ_Kers lol
Didn't you ever see Daddy Long Legs? They don't make webs and can hunt in packs.
Garter snakes spend the winter rooming together in holes in the ground. Show up at the right time, and you can find an absolutely staggeringly huge number of snakes, all of them technically venomous. I say technically venomous, because their venom is really just something to help them digest frogs, nothing that could do you any real harm. Unless you are a small frog. Then beware!
@@aaronwentzel4145 wow. I legit didn't know either of those things about them lol thanks for the info kind stranger
I feel like the Jet Blue/Spirit merger is like shoveling more crap onto an already huge pile of manure.
A.k.a. consolidating.
“Evolutionary cul de sac” 😆😆😆😆 absolutely brilliant 😆
That photo is a lovely way to commemorate the day Stephen got to meet her eyebrows.
Spirit will sell you the airline, but the fuselage wings, engines, landing gear and oxygen masks are all seperate charges.
when the spider jumps out from the diagram! 😂
"can't we just walk to Rochester" maybe the last option before taking Spirit airlines but having been to Rochester, the first option should be "can we go anywhere else other than Rochester"!
I can't sleep. Mitch is crying for flood relief.
We’re doomed. At least Stephen makes me laugh as we speed toward that cliff.
"Mooooom... the robot's starting to smell agaaaaain...."
I owe such a huge debt to you Stephen for helping me make it through the last few years. Comedians are my heroes.
...but why spiders? Of all creatures, you had to make zombie robot spiders? 😱
A girl once asked what my favorite bit of a woman's anatomy was. I told her "her neck", sweet, sensitive and ripe for soft kisses... While she was quivering I said "Yep! I am definitely a neckrophiliac" and she choked on her coffee. Fun summer that was.

Bringing a new definition to deadlifting
the Choco Taco and now Spirit! Of course, being so close to Halloween, we may see a "Spirit Halloween" in a Spirit Airplane!
How about free Subway sandwiches filled with dead spiders for life/Halloween?
@@mechanicaldavid4827 well it would have more Tuna then the Tuna sandwich 🥪!
Necrobotic is definitely something that H.R. Giger was drawing, I'm sure of it.
And here I thought Necromorphs in Dead Space were already terrifying enough. Welp guys, time to start getting rid of all your vents and getting your Plasma Cutters ready cause if you start hearing a voice in your head saying "Make us Whole" that means things have already started going to hell.
Pity the Necromorphs weren't nearly as deadly as EA :(
"We're in a Tim Burton fever dream." Indeed!
My reaction to the Subway contest was exactly the same as Stephen's. If I had a free lifetime supply of Subway, I would likely never use it.
Very much miss the long intros in MEANWHILE
Me too
Excellent Steph-venn diagram! Very BOO-lean 🕷 👻
Necro-spiders. Thanks Stephen!
The writing of the Meanwhile intros is spectacular. But, you really have to give credit where credit is due when it comes to how difficult it is to deliver those lines. The Late Show team is a real powerhouse of talent from front to back, and every which way in between.
I actually find them really annoying and skip them. They’re too long.
@@BlownMacTruck Thanks for sharing🙄
@@wirelesmike73 You post on a public forum and then complain when someone responds? Good job there. I didn’t even say anything bad about liking it - I just said *I* don’t prefer it as a response to your post. Grow the hell up.
@@BlownMacTruck No, I posted to compliment the Late Show Crew, not to pull your fucking string. But, your self-important ass just couldn't resist shitting on someone else's opinion. I didn't ask for your fucking feedback on me or my comment. So, why don't you just skip right on by my post; the same way you skip the intros?
Post your own damn comment if you have such strong feelings about it.🖕
The only way to stop a bad zombie robot spider is with a good zombie robot spider.
Good one!😉😉
Fruit stand, the final frontier. William Shatner’s wallet boldly go where no William Shatner’s wallet has gone before.
Haven't flown in decades; threaten spiders from time to time.
Good show!
That pic of Shatner was a beard away from being Santa Claus.
Someone at a fruit stand found a wallet. It was William Shatner's.
That's the story!
XD
The Bands Groove is absolute FIRE 🔥
I don't know... but I suspect Stephen will have some splainin to do when he get home tonight 😂
I believe we were promised "Dig a Pony" some time this week. I want my pony! 😢
You'll hear a good deal of it (instrumentally) when you watch the Thursday monologue (transition music at the end). But yeah, I wish they put out a full video of the song...
The necrobot research should be nominated for an Ig-Nobel.
Gotta win an IgNobel prize.
Great, now I'm even getting cheap jumpscares in my _late-night comedy._
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Annie is such a lovely person! Yu are a fortunate man, Stephen!
okay that subway joke though 😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹
Anyone who's recently "enjoyed" a food cylinder from Subway laughed way too hard at that joke.
I wanted to like this video, only to discover I'd already liked it. So many good jokes.
I hate when that happens.
Loving the Love for the musicians. 😁
Meanwhile is one of the best things on earth.
Lovely picture of Stephen and St.Vincent
We love you, St. Vincent, thanks so much for the music, and to Stephen everything!
Lewis is my favorite of the amazingly talented musicians on this show. That Les Paul is my dream guitar and/or the custom II. I can’t wait till the day I can afford one. Please keep Lewis as long as he will stay. Thank you all for the great content and laughs you give me day after day! ❤️🔥
That was so sweet how he showed her that picture of them both. ☺
How to make tiny grippers from a dead spider is destined to be the most popular school science fair project of all time.
Robotic spiders were in a Star Wars the Clone Wars Episode. I guess inspiration comes from everything literally everything 😂😂
Also Wild Wild West Big Metal Spider
And Doctor Who, second episode of the Eccleston series
Albany, NY to Rochester, NY about 3:25 drive. Time to check in, get thru security, retrieve your luggage, hire a taxi... might be quicker to drive anyway.
Humanity: Cure Cancer
Scientists: Yo fam you want some reanimated robot spiders?
How's a robotics engineer going to cure cancer? That's what the biologists are for.
I mean...if you won free subway sandwiches for life, and ate subway sandwiches everyday, then they probably wouldn't have to give you free sandwiches for that long.
That might be because of a premature demise or if history serves, a nice long stay in a state run facility where the inmates are not allowed delivery.
"A Venn diagram where spiders, robots and zombies overlap"... I am LMFAO😂😂😂
Aah, THAT'S the Spirit, Stephen!
I love how you just left Subway hangin' haha. I don't go there any more either, probably for the same reasons you don't.
Wait, JetBlue is the ones PAYING???
I assumed Spirit paid them to take over...
Whoever wrote those Shatner and Subway jokes did a fantastic job
EDIT: Also the Spirit joke! Nice stuff

4:38 *The only thing worse than leaving his wallet at the fruit stand, would have been losing his phaser or communicator in the corn bin!*
Yeah, if that happened he couldn't get beaned up at the farmers market.

Meanwhile is a tour de force! Excellent work, as always.
Best intro in months! Lol. Hugs.
with the turbulent joke i expected the "YEAAAAAHHHH!" from csi miami opening
When I learned that spiders move with a hydraulic system, I had a thought. I never though someone would actually do it though.
I love William Shatner! I wish I could have found his wallet so I could meet him when I returned it.
I happily await all the MDZS sci-fi AU fanfiction that will be inspired by Necrobots.
Everyone flies spirit once! and then "never again"
A treat!
