The day after Stephen Colbert's show was cancelled, he went on community access television and did an episode with Jeff Daniels, Jack White, Eminem and others.

@GossiTheDog That’s the thing Trump never learns. When a voice is removed from one controlled platform, it has the freedom to be totally unrestrained on other platforms.

@GossiTheDog
While I object to any show being canceled for political reasons, I lost all respect for Colbert after contrasting his interviews of Mamdani and Slotkin.

Mamdani was aggressively and relentlessly pressed on his opinions of Israel, while CIA Slotkin was given the friendly, softball, puff piece treatment.

Colbert may not have caved to Trump, but he certainly caved to the Israel lobby and the right wing Democratic establishment.

@GossiTheDog this is a great way to start the day

@GossiTheDog OMG, yes!

I used to think Colbert never lived up to Dave Letterman. I was wrong.

[lnwirz@mastodon.social]

@GossiTheDog Do you know the original interview with Eminem? It's the funniest interview I've ever watched.

I'd love to watch a #Colbert Report, live-streamed from #Michigan or wherever.

The camera work is top notch! And the lack of a large audience makes the jokes land in a hilariously awkward way.

@GossiTheDog thank you so much for posting this. I had no idea and I can't wait to watch!

Lifetime fan of Letterman, and never thought that anybody could fill his shoes. Colbert did an admirable job.

@GossiTheDog jack white and jack black should have a faceoff.

@freediverx @GossiTheDog
Colbert is vocally Catholic, I wonder how much of his bias is driven by the End Times-mythos common in Christianity.

@GossiTheDog Stephen should just travel the country doing community access tv.

He’s never struck me as a deeply religious person. He’s just another bourgeois liberal.

[lapt0r@infosec.exchange]

@forpeterssake @freediverx @GossiTheDog the end times stupid shit is very Protestant/Charismatic coded. There are fake converts like Vance (who is a Charismatic pretending to be Catholic) who might be like that, but 100% of the breathless loonies I've met who need Bibi to start WWIII are Charismatics.

that stephen colbert show on community access TV is great btw, it's a bit mad and very lo-fi and funny

[zedaardv@mastodon.world]

@GossiTheDog
That was a fun hour.

[gossithedog@cyberplace.social]

moments include getting drunk on air, and huffing helium on air

@GossiTheDog Sometimes I can't tell if Jack was disinterested or just a little too convincing. lol

[hummingbird8009@mastodon.social]

@GossiTheDog Ah perfect! Through this link, I found his youtube channel back in the day, you needed a tv channel for that
