every time he says "meanwhile" instead of "quarantinewhile" now it catches me by surprise
ditto.
Tear up actually... tears of stupid funny joy.
We have to get used to again
Lmfao, get that vaccine shot and you can go from quaratinewhile to meanwhile too!
It feels like home for me.
I keep thinking in my head he’ll say “quarantinewhile” and this will take some getting used to
Wait a few weeks once the reality of the delta variant sinks in
I'm really glad they finally talked about the elephant in the room...
@@ChineduOpara is it me or does anybody that use emojis like that automatically think the person using them is like a minor lol. no respectable adult uses those emojis i swear.
@@steverogers6572 "is it me or does anybody that doesn't know how to write a proper sentence automatically looks like a minor to everybody else? lol. no respectable adult lacks grammar knowledge like this, I swear."
what you said doesn't make sense, unless you are implying people using emojis think of themselves in the third person and that they are indeed a minor.
@@Deddolo do you go around and correct everyones grammar? because having bad grammar online is a common thing. no one takes it seriously and thats the difference you dont see. my opinion is that most people who use emojis gotta be young. seems like a fair assumption.
And the elephant in this room is: why do people concern themselves with the perceived maturity of someone's communication skills based on what they use for CZcams comments?
@@smoothrocky1847 why do people concern themselves with other peoples opinions? this can go all day pointdexters my opinion still stands, and thats all it is, an opinion. didnt mean to insult the emoji users jesus.

I don't get it

Jon Batiste's award shelf is getting crowded... he should definitely grace the cover of many magazines!
Does he have PEGOT? EGOT w a Peabody?
That there boy slower than a premature tortoise with 3 legs
Looking like that he should. That man is a feast for the eyes and ears.
I was kind of hoping for him to lift up his Oscar's and place on the piano when Stephen asked about the Peabody.
@@TreebeardsHome he does not have a Tony yet
NOOOOO NOT MY THIGHS While everyone was going for the wings I always had them thighs to myself THEY ARE DELICIOUSSSSS I DON WANNA SHARE EM D:
Nice pfp
This is exactly what I thought! Growing up, I was always the only person I knew who liked thigh meat (and darker meat, in general). It's mine, and I want to keep it all mine. In one way, I'm hopeful that people will come around and see what we've been enjoying for years, but it's also our little secret. I don't want half-hearted wing eaters to move in and rally around my beloved meat just because it's "trendy." Leave the thigh meat to the true thigh meat lovers.
And yes, I am gatekeeping chicken meat. This is serious business.
I’ve wondered about that too. I’ve always looked at the breast and thigh as the best chicken meats.
Thighs are the only part I eat. ☹️
I'm with you! Also, thighs tend to cost less at the store

You're right sir, it's obvious a lot of people remain poor due to ignorance
It's better to take risk and make sacrifices than to remain poor.
It's not ignorance but due to some unprofessional expert in the market.
Jon is just as smooth as the silkiest gourmet butter. That guy can put a smile on anyone's face with his charisma alone. Add to that his musical chops and no one can resist his charms.
his smile is all thats right in this world.
He is adorable! Seems like a truly, sweet man. 🥰
He's pretty damn adorable. I love his energy and personality!
I think it's so amazing he worked with one of my long long long time heroes and loves, Trent Reznor too. How cool they won a freaking Oscar together too!
@@ChineduOpara He isn't married but he does have a long term girlfriend and yes, she is totally lucky.
I'd like to say OPs name is relevant but as a straight guy, shit I can barely resist him myself.
The way Meloni stands, with right leg forward, tenses his butt and makes it stick out more. It’s a more stable butt - some might even call it a Stabler Butt! (thunk thunk)
Excellent
Ahahahahaha!!!!!
Or, a very stable gluteus.
Speaking of the elephant, Stephen should have said that the creature was walking home from a Ba-Bar.
That's a good one lmao
...walking home from a Ba-Bar in Thighland craving a chicken wing, but they only had thaistop
Bahaha that’s a good one 👍🏻👍🏻
Haha, good one, but would have sadly been lost on the American public
@@s.o.3753 not this American. :)
“Authorities were relieved when the apparent corpse turned out to be a sex doll” … maybe relieved is not the right word in this context

It was some years ago that I learned that Americans don't like chicken thighs. I was amazed by this, because where I'm from everyone fights over the thighs and drumsticks because they're much juicier and more flavourful
At my family tables everyone always scrambled for the breast meat, which was fine by me cuz the thighs are just better across the board. I'm assuming they're really bad for you somehow because I can't think of any other reason why we were all convinced that white meat is superior. Wings, on the other hand, pure propaganda to get people to buy the dang things. Worst part of a bird. Nothing but sauce delivery vessels at this point.
I just want it on record that I had to work really hard to make that anecdote as PG as possible. The first draft came across distressingly suggestive.
I also prefer where there is less meat. For example, I prefer the back because there is little meat there. By the way, the head is also very nice. Especially the brains
@@Taurusus They're not bad for you at all! They are higher in fat than breast meat, yes, but that's not inherently a bad thing and that's also what gives you the moisture and flavour. Also, I don't really like wings either lol
The breasts and thighs are the best parts in my opinion. Chicken burgers or patties are made using the chicken breasts mainly
Yup, best part of the chicken!
"Amateur Appendectomy": two words you would rather not hear together.
That’s exactly what I thought
Yeah
This isn't the same Colbert... He didn't say 'topical'... He ALWAYS says 'topical'!!!
"recreational autopsies"
I grew up on the West Coast, so it was some time before I even Learned "Chicken Wings" aka "Buffalo Wings" with sauce was a thing, Like well in to the 90's when I was around 25- everyone I knew thought the wings were the smallest afterthought of the chicken- Drumsticks, Breast, and Thighs went before them --- it shows some Marketing Genius that someone in the Buffalo, NY region bought a bunch of inferior wings, dumped tons of sauce on them, and now "Chicken Wings" are so popular there's a shortage of them, and restaurants have to convince people much meatier Thighs are just as good, when they're really a better cut of meat!
Wait, you Americans have restaurants that just serve chicken wings? WHAT ELSE HAVEN'T YOU TOLD ME!?!
@@brassholio it isn't as good as you're imagining 🤷🏼♂️
Theresa Bellissimo and John Young were the “PR geniuses”, you should look them up
Yeah, years ago chicken wings used to sell for almost nothing, now they're easily the most expensive part of the bird, go figure. But, they're not really selling wings for the meat, the secret to wings is the skin, which gets all the crispiness and fat and flavor.
Same... I hated the wings because it was so much work for so little meat. I thought there was something wrong with my friends family because they would do BBQ chicken wings and then criticize because I didn't eat all the "meat" and I am like WHAT MEAT... Even today I prefer boneless chicken wings to regular wings.
Ty Stephen and John.
And God Bless Evie!
😀
That’s not strictly what I imagine, when someone is addressing the elephant in the room 🤷🏾♂️
This deserves way more likes, but it's only been 8 minutes.
I'll wait :-)
I have not yet watched the video.
If I don't see Stephen Colbert speaking to an elephant, I will be disappointed.
I want chicken right now but it’s 4 in the morning and I’m not 21 anymore lol
Right in the feels! 😜😂😂😂
You only live once..
Mmm 😋 chicken wings
No excuse!
@@krejados1 true 😁
I worked once with a man named Tim who resented chicken wings. He looked back fondly on a time when they were cheap meat you could score in bulk for making soup stock. Then the power of marketing swooped in and made the wing in to a major seller as a delivery means for breading and dipping sauces.
This has been Lex Rambles On A Related Topic. Enjoy your evening and remember that while there's nothing technically wrong with a billionaire buying their own space program and going in to space, there's no morally justifiable reason to let them come back to Earth afterwards.
Poor elephant must be hungry.
I was thinking the same thing :( That story was funny... but mostly sad to me.
I'm worried about the plastic bag that poor creature ate
MEANWHILE 😆🤣 IS THE BEST WHEN YOU WAKE IN LOOK UP ON CZcams. . Congrats and the Award you deserve I whole year WORRIES and Laughing at the same time. THANK YOU STEVEN COLBERT.🙂
Is Christopher Meloni going to fight Chris Evans for the title of America’s Ass?
Beak Stop, for when you're feeling peckish...
Booooooooo 😂
weeee :D
I’m conflicted, I miss the intimacy of Stephen and Evie in the closet, but so happy to see Jon and the band in the studio.
i for one am cringing at the ridiculous audience claps and woo's.
loved it when it was just his producer genuinely laughing on his own behind the cameras.. (i think he's Chris?)
Ya. I would rather just hear Evie laugh. I got to like her. Maybe she should sit on the couch and tell the audience to shut up.
I know they called it a closet, but when you say "Stephen and Evie in the closet," it sounds like "Late Show: After Dark" to me. 😏
I hate the audience
The only good parts are the band and seeing the absolute joy on Colbert's face. Some people really need am audience and I think he's one of them.
P-Body would be a great rap name.

"Americans prefer other parts of the chicken..."
Me who has always preferred chicken thighs and legs: "this is news to me."
This gives the phrase “Aren’t we gonna talk about the elephant in the room” a literal meaning. xD
Band so very smart tonight 👌
What?!?!? My entire family and extended family have fought over the dark meat of chickens for decades at dinner party's.
Parties. Plural, not possessive. And haven't you heard, THERE IS AN APOSTROPHE DROUGHT ON? Flagrant waste of apostrophes is killing our culture and poisoning our environment!
@@ericminch And yet, two thousand years ago, some Jewish guy named Jesus walked around with a dozen apostrophes!
That intro was CRAZYYY. Jon Batiste and Stay Human are soooo good.
I tell you!
It's a tune from way back in my childhood days and I neeeeeed the artist name and song title pleeeease!

The jokes write themselves sometimes.
Note: There is a real 'Peabody Magazine', but it's affiliated with the Peabody Institute at John Hopkins not the College of Journalism and Mass Communications at the University of Georgia.
You where First. Nice
Aw, I was hoping it was about time travel.
Tell Jon!
This is the kind of quality content for which I come to the comments section!
@@BeeWhistler I always turn to Sherman's column first.
The dipping a chicken breast/thigh in egg part of breading a chicken is the one of the most commonly overlooked morbid ironies.
chicken with egg and veal parm with cheese are some serial killer shit
I love Jon Baptiste's mannerisms.

Love Stephen's tie tonight. And oh yeah, he's ON FIRE now that he's back on stage in the ES theater!
"She sells sex dolls by the sea shore!"
What the story doesn't tell you is the new craze that's sweeping the world, 'Sex Surfing'! All you need is the sea, your favorite "doll" and your birthday suit! In a couple months, we'll have a rockin' new Beach Boys album that will remind America (and the world) that its ok to "ride the swells" again!
I normally have to get really really drunk before I start seeing elephants in my kitchen.
The regular kind or pink?
@@kasperraskjensen1081 Yes.
but do you talk to them? Cause then you'd really be addressing the elephant in the room
Seeing myself out now :-)
I don't trust one of your stories. There's some glaring holes in the 'rescued' sex doll story.....
I'll see myself to the door, now.
Nice
😂🤣thanks for the giggle. Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself
Thighstop is gonna wreak havoc on my thigh gap.
Thigh gaps are ridiculous! I remember when I first saw a woman in a commercial with a thigh gap in the late 80s. I was a kid and thought something is wrong with her because her legs are 'not properly connected'. She looked like a kid had painted her with those legs so far apart from each other. I was floored to find out some people see it as a beauty ideal?!
I have t seen a meanwhile since the rotten orange 🍊 man held the reins
Deep relaxing sigh 😎❤️😎
Them offering thighs would actually get me to go to WibgStop. Thighs are the best part.
Ah yes! Get your bucket of beaks at ‘Beakstop’. 😁
"You fry it long enough, I'll eat a beak" Better watch it, Stephen. In some parts of the world, the beaks actually do make it to the table...
No you don't want fried beaks, some of the most succulent meat is on the head, especially the eye sockets!
Waste not, want not
Congratulations to you Stephen, Mr Batiste & All associated Crew for your well deserved 🎶 🎺

I am THRILLED that thighs are half the price of white meat.
Thighs are the best part of the chicken!
BUT - why do they have that slightly slimy texture - love the flavour, hate the texture.
@@saber1epee0 and twice as tasty and juicy … yum!
“Everybody get off the floor! Colbert was licking’ the chicken dinosaur!”

priceless!
Shame on Colbert for not dwelling on this excellent opportunity.
I'm glad someone made that joke. Colbert missed a good one
The tender is an actual cut. Short for tenderloin.
Umm... wrong animal
@@tzvikrasner6073 no, they are indeed called chicken breast tenderloins, to distinguish them from the part of the breast that tends to dry out
@@tzvikrasner6073 no
Also, a really fun part of San Francisco!
@@joecrowaz I've heard. 😏
Love Jon! Great fun banter with Stephen. They make me smile! 💞
I mean, come on... the thigh is easily be best piece of meat on a chicken.
Absolutely LOVE Jon. What a positive, kind, man! With talent.
Strangely enough I miss Quarantinewhile...
Woot woot Bathtub Coughsyrup!
"What's wrong, I'm licking a dinosaur!" MY MAN.
Unfortunately, the elephant ate PLASTIC BAG.
Still waiting for the Meanwhile sub-segment: Memewhile.

“Head through the wall for Thai food “ yessss!!!
Elephant making a trunk call!
So amazing to see the energy and relief of normalcy in NY, especially Colbert and his crew. For some of us, normalcy is a long way off.
An elephant just ate a whole bag of uncooked rice.
I don't even know what to say to that.
I’ve never understood the popularity of wings and drumsticks. It seems like, beyond the ability to hold the bit(s) you don’t eat, they’re just stringy meat and gristle. Barely a step up from chicken necks or feet. I’m not chicken-shaming, just baffled by something which is clearly very popular.
I imagine part of the appeal of the wing is the surface area you have to apply herbs or sauces to it. Because it’s all folded up and there’s not much meat, the ratio of meat to sauce is a lot more even to, say, a chicken breast, which would be 95% meat to 5% surface area.
oh no, now the elephant is going to explode!
Jon Batiste !!! Ohhhh that man is pure magic ♥♥♥
That cell phone joke at the end was underrated
Segment begins at 2:00
Yeah, skip ahead to 2:00 if following the intro is too difficult for you to understand.
...for the rest of us, we enjoy laughing at the word/metaphor play that actually requires an attention span of greater than a minute.
@@FiferSkipper OH, I'm _soooo_ sorry that I find the *Meanwhile* intro to be played out. How dare anyone have a difference of opinion than you! You're _definitely_ right to attempt to insult someone that doesn't! Great job policing the comments section! I don't know what the world would do without your invaluable skills!
Paint the elephant red and you can call it the Kool-aid man "OH YEAH!"
Ground beaks are already in nuggets
Colbert: Meanwhile
Audience: hahahahahah
I miss no audience show 😐
A plastic bag in the poor elephants belly... Oh no!
I literally gasped soo loud when I saw that elephant I woke up my 2 sleeping cats.
I want to know why the builder of that home didn’t build to elephant code? Somebody slipped on the job. LOL
The left their copy of the code in the trunk.
I like it better w no audience. The laughs sound so coached, now.
0:50 This man won an Oscar and he’s patronizing Stephen Colbert like a champ.
“Oh? That’s adorable, I remember when your go-to line was ‘I work with an Oscar winner!’ now we get lumped into your Peabody-Pity-Party…”
Chicken thighs are the new craze. Better to just buy a whole bird and cut it up yourself, WAY CHEAPER!
Jon is so full of soul, so talented and precious, he oozes Cool 🆒😎
"Visual approximation" of the CEO of Wingstop.
Popular Opinion: Every single one of ya'll agrees that Dr. COLBERT's sunny side made our day:
only found out now that the thighs are the cheapest part of the chicken in the US. The leg and thigh are usually the best piece in Asia. Wings not so much since they're less meaty and too bony.
Oh that Jon is handsome .. and his music is just so uplifting 💜
I got so used to seeing you from home that the audience noises are weird now :O
So happy for Johnny B and the Boyz
When the metaphorical elephant in the room becomes literal 😅
Picture of the chicken with a tie has „visual approximation“ written under it 😆
Great show, good to have you back at the theater! Evie needs a segment too!! Love you All ❤️ Jody 😘
The thighs is the best part, I always do my chicken curry with thighs.
Noooooooo! Thighs are awful, terrible, no good trash bits that you shouldn't eat...please don't take my delicious chicken thighs.
Exactly if you don't want it...more for me!! Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself
Thighs are indeed the best part. Let those philistines have their precious wings…I’ll take all the thighs I can transport safely on my own!
Love you Jon you are so game with Stephen
Where did that elephant 🐘 come from 😂😂😂 omg
Get your fingers OFF MY THIGHS ! They're my favorite part, now they'll raise the price.
Jon Stewart's lab joke showed Colberts true colors
...Is the elephant gonna be okay?
Jon is so suave, what a great personality.
Can't wait to get my hands on that new "Breast Stop" chain.
"Visual Approximation" 🤣🤣🤣 🐔 👔
I would love some Dino Bites rolled in the wing stop garlic parmesan 😃
Alright Batist.. looking sharp.. love it.. my blessings to all.... 🙏🙏❤️😎✌️
Jon batiste and the band with the sister sledge cover. Love it!
5:05.... that guy from 'a' late show laughing again! yay
I remember a time when we got wings for free from the butcher.
