    This guy started to get weird a few years back now he’s totally lost it. There’s no redeeming your self after dancing and singing with syringes

    Thanks
    Great guests, Thank you for all the laughs 😀

    No monologue
    This podcast lacks the best part of the show. Please include the monologues.
  • Kerri Bassett
    Such a great interview with Paul McCartney!
    I absolutely loved your interview with Paul McCartney! it really brought us into the heart and soul of Paul McCartney, and the “regular guy “ that he actually is! he was so modest and down to earth… And I love the way you brought that out in him. Great, great interview!

    Where’s the monologue?
  • jasnsav
    Love Stephen but…
    I love The Late Show, and I love Stephen Colbert. I’ve actually been in person to see a taping and it is great fun. However, I hate, loath and despise his intro to Meanwhile. Such a waste of time and stupid I wish he would spend more time making jokes out of headlines than wasting the effort to write that nonsense he says going into the segment!
  • MusicIsMyMistress
    Very sharp!
    Great writers, guests and delivery. But I echo what others have written about adjusting the volume to hear the show, only to be blasted by higher volume recordings of the sponsors’ commercials. It’s bad enough with car speakers, but God help you if space out that Colbert is going to a commercial and you haven’t adjusted the volume for your earbuds in time!
  • BabsKetchum
    Colbert is 5 star but the audio quality is 2 star
    The audio levels of the show are terrible. Sometimes I have to really crank up the volume just to hear Stephen Colbert and occasionally the guests, but then I get blasted by the volume of the commercials. This makes it very difficult to enjoy while driving.

    Love Colbert, Hate this pod
    First of all, can someone please tell the producers of this podcast that nobody is interested in several-year-old reruns of variety shows? I can’t remember the last time i heard something from even the last six months on this podcast. Second, why such truncated segments? No thanks, I have Youtube.
  • fifth gghffh
    Naturally funny
    Even with the strike. I watch old monologues and still laugh after watching them a second time.
  • WEFlookitup
    Lame
    Colbert Report now that was funny.

    Getting Boring
    Not on his game anymore.
  • communitynewspodcast
    First time I have listened to your podcast.
    Different than the TV show and I like the extra dimension. Can you PLEASE interview Paul and Sasha the cohosts of the hilarious news satire podcast "Community News with Paul and Sasha". You would be such a great interviewer of them because all 3 of you are so funny, quick, and smart.
  • Listen and work
    Really loud ads :(
    The extra loud volume of the ad segments is really annoying and an old, cheap trick. The content of the show is entertaining, witty, and laugh-out-loud funny. Recruit advertisers that don’t demand this lousy double volume trick.
  • Heudjejsuxhdndbxhd
    separate politics from pop culture
    i’m not interested in the pop culture part of the show. i wish they would separate the monologue from the interviews. or please interview more relevant people. i skip the actor/singer stuff and stick around for the public official interviews.
  • davidvlh
    Busted eardrums
    Love the show and it’s great I can listen to the podcast while at work. But please, fix the volumes on the commercials and show. I have to turn the show way up to hear it but when the commercials come on the volume practically bursts my eardrums. They did this on TV ages ago and it’s super annoying.
  • No faking it
    Came for the monologues, stayed for the interviews
    Usually I just hit the monologues and music of my fav late night guys, but I have really been enjoying the interviews and the music on this show. Even a few guests I wouldn't have ordinarily enjoyed, Stephen seems to find the best in people and encourages some positive feedback. If you like a guest, you'll love the interviews. More Lewis C please. 💖
  • Dragon256
    What happened to this guy?
    Colbert used to be one of the funniest dudes on television while hosting the Colbert Report. His “Formidable Opponent” segments would leave me in stitches. Even when his jokes were at the expense of things I supported or people I liked, I still found his humor hilarious. Now? I don’t even recognize the guy. It really does seem like he’s sold his soul to the corporate elites in order to host this show. The vaccine dance has to be one of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever seen a late night host do on a tv show. Like, I got second hand embarrassment just from watching it on YouTube. What a waste of talent.
  • nshr152
    Can’t do it.
    Can’t stand Steven Colbert. Don’t want to double tap similar reviews too much but, isn’t funny, never was.
  • Bob_W.
    Not Funny, Never Was
    Hard to be funny when this malcontent lets his leftism blurt out constantly. When his late night career is finished, I’m sure he can continue to get low ratings on an MSNBC show.
  • Ingerrr
    Been waiting for this!
    Love Colbert and so happy I can catch the show as a podcast when I can’t watch, even without the video. Podcast Colbert is better than no Colbert any day! PLEASE moderate volume of ads vs the show and never cut the monologue then it’s 5 stars (I refuse to engage when ads have jacked up volume & make a point to avoid those sponsors so quit it)!
  • sbart2692
    The worst
    Comedian? Not funny
  • Funcooker62
    Colbert used to be funny at Comedy Central. Those days are long gone.
    The Colbert report was so much fun to watch. This current product is made to appeal to a very small % of the population. Stephen has sold his comedic soul to the devil. I hope your large bags of cash make you happy, Stephen Colbert. You will likely never be truly funny again.
  • Mojyy
    Best funny podcast
    I love Steven Colbert
  • Davie1133
    Awesome
    I love that it is the audio version of the tv show! I can’t watch the broadcast, but I can listen to the podcast (anywhere anytime)!!! It is GREAT and I LOVE it
  • Intelligent rocket scientist
    Yesss!!! …But…random content editing: Monologue: maybe. “Meanwhile”: maybe
    The ads are dangerously louder than the programming ‼️🙉 I’m a HUGE fan of Stephen Colbert—have been since The Colbert Report (OK—actually since TDS) The podcast satisfies 90% of my needs, with the added benefit of not having to be tied to a screen🏃🏋️‍♂️ Just Dial. Down. Those. Ads.

    Owning Drumpf
    All I can say is Lol! Like a fine wine, Stephen has only gotten funnier with age! The fine fellows at The Adam Friedland Show turned me onto the podcast feed, if anyone is looking for another center left talk-show style production check out The Adam Friendland Show!
  • sarahbrunning
    Love Stephen but…
    I hate the voice of the lady who does the into/exit bit. It’s like fingernails on a chalkboard for me when she talks! Otherwise it’s brilliant. I listen daily and love the monologue.
  • Hidden objection
    I really enjoy this podcast
    This podcast is a lot of fun. A little difficult when they do visuals I have to switch over to YouTube. And I wish when they do the classics they would note somewhere when it was first aired. It was a little confusing to listen to Rachel Maddow because I didn’t know if it was during Trump or during Biden and at which point during Biden her critique was being made. But aside from these minor notes, this is great for those of us who can’t stay up late.

    The Absolute Best
    This is my daily go to uplift for the day!! Love that it’s not exactly the same as the televised show. The extended interview episode with the Brett Gellman was outstanding. Thanks Stephen for keeping me sane.
  • PARiggerRick
    Colbert is smart AND funny
    I think Stephen’s smart comedy and smart political comedy relieves some of the pressure of our political pressure cooker. I’m a fan of anyone who can be clever and ironic despite the political stalemate at the depths of the sewer of partisan two party political failure.
  • NoMoreCoHosts
    Too low
    Turn up volume on podcast… way too low
  • Durt Ramanin
    terrible
    He used to be funny, now just sad.
  • KarynClay
    Simplifies my life
    I’m so grateful that I’m able to hear the fantastic and invaluable content of the late show without having to sit down and watch it. Adding humor to the most complex issues of today brings levity to my world
  • hanq28:#kr
    Pretty good ig
    This podcast is hilarious, yet the guests can be quite boring sometimes. Stephen, on the other hand, has mastered comedy.
  • Innocentbystander22
    About that survey…
    Love the show and love the podcast but there’s no way I’m filling out that survey for Paramount. I read the fine print. That’s asking for way too much personal information.
  • St@nner
    No more monologues?
    I used to love this podcast but recently it’s been shortened and jumps to the guest, eliminating the opening monologue. So the best part of the show was removed from the podcast which now is shortened and depending on the guest might not be worth listening to.
  • Titus120
    Beta male apologizes for white people constantly
    Trash human, I saw you at COFC around 2010 to make a speech for your garbage sister to be a politician. Glad she didn’t win because I’m guessing she’s as dumb and useless as you beta boy.
  • lo00lu
    Can I speak to whomever is mixing the audio?
    Love this podcast, but the volume going from 3 to 15, then back to 4, then up to 35 us making me crazy - and partially deaf. I don’t experience this in any other podcast I follow. The volume variation is maddening.
  • TommySZC
    Best Late night podcast hands down!
    Also wish they were longer
  • Danbear12
    Love the show
    Love Stephen.. but, peace and love, it’s not cool to start cutting out the monologue. Not worth listening to just the guests
