    I went to college with this guy. He did stand-up for some open mic event and took us all on a "microphone parade" in which he took the mic and just walked around and outside of the building, the entire time singing "it's a microphoooone paraaaade".

      Start by making a genuine expression of how much you appreciate the subtleness and softness of his demeanor in this chaotic world, or something or other, rather than using meme text short hand for you expressions. You basically just gave Joe Pera the modern equivalent of "the man's a goddamn national treasure". Joe Pera deserves better, and he would like us all to be better, for ourselves and for others.

      yes! it's hard to do that on such "loud" programming. Example: the way Ellen handled ASMR (relaxing videos) on her show. She teased to the point of bullying and the community deservedly shamed her for her on-air mistreatment of something quiet and therapeutic for people. Joe's show is similarly therapeutic, and my respect for Stephen Colbert soared in how he handled the interview!

"Joe Pera Talks With You" has been such a comfort during the pandemic, especially more recently. I never really considered myself a crazy-emotional chick, but the jack-o-lantern episode had me ugly-crying for 20 minutes. It simultaneously broke and healed my heart. Every episode is a gift. Anyway, greetings from the future, internet stranger. I hope you're doing OK.

    It’s so amazing how comedy has made a 180 and now it’s wholesome and family friendly.

    This is my introduction to Joe Pera. This man is a genius. Full Stop.
    He's the flip-side to Andy Kaufman.

    Joe Pera is genius because, even if you don't get his comedy, you can't help but like him because he's so damn wholesome. Also, his Buffalo Bills routine is the funniest sports joke I have ever heard in my life.

    I love how steven conducts the interview. He knows that joe's mannerisms and who he is naturally make him funny, while the audience is laughing AT joe, stephen reigns in this interview to help joe articulate past the fact he's freaking out because he's on a late night show.
