I couldn't imagine how anyone could fill the role that Jon Batiste had as bandleader, but I absolutely adore Louis Cato! Damn, he's talented, and seems to be a genuinely lovely person. He's wearing my favorite jacket again. I love his style! The current line up is my favorite Late Night band of all time. Every member is a virtuoso in their own right. I especially love stand up bassist, Endea Owens, who is an outstanding jazz recording artist and rocks her glamorous style. I always check out what she's wearing. I still love Jon, and I hope his soulmate, Suleika Jaouad, will ultimately kick cancer's a$$ and make a full recovery. Reading about their powerful love story reduced me to tears, I had an absolute "ugly" cry, but for the most beautiful reasons!🥹🥲
When we went to the movie Up, we were sitting just behind a woman and her family. After watching the sad, sad beginning, the daughter leans over her father and in a plaintive voice asks, “Mom? When is it going to get funny?”
Seagulls are the garbage disposal system of systems when you need to throw out the Dungeness crab bait and watch in awe as the seagull swallows it whole
The “chilling agent” part of Sprite reminded me of a classic Jeeves and Wooster (if anyone here remembers that) where Wooster is trying to make tea on his own, reading a book warning not to over boil water as it will become “hard.” To which he says… hard water, well that’s just Ice. Felt the same about a chilling agent for a soft drink…
Trump would be biggly annoyed if he found out more people turned up to watch a man eat cheeseballs than turned up to support him at his trial. I hope no one tells him 😁
“Research and development team went through several rounds of trial and error” just sounds like some of them died and got replaced. (Or I’ve watched to much Sci-Fi.)
Manifold lubricant? Most soft drinks already really do have Antifreeze in them, you may be surprised to learn that Coca-Cola contains propylene glycol. Propylene glycol is an ingredient that's used as a preservative. It has many other uses, including being used as an anti-freeze. It's not just used in Coke though-it can be found in many other foods and cosmetics as well.
YES! They are the best band on any late night show! Sorry Roots, y'all are great too, but I'm not a fan of Fallon. Nothing personal, but he's no Seth or Stephen. Louis Cato had some mighty big shoes to fill when Jon Batiste left to spend more time caring for his partner fighting a tough battle with leukemia. Louis has his own delightful personality, and his OWN "shoes", and I'm convinced that man could play any instrument he set his talent to. ❤ Louis Cato! He's wearing my favorite jacket again. The gentleman has style!
I agree! I love how many of the late night shows still have a live band, I think it's wonderful but Louis Cato and the Late Show band are by far my favourites! Sorry Fred and QL!
The ability to choose camera feed would be a cool feature for streaming platforms. Of course they'll need to charge everyone more if they use it or not.
They might not be doing so now because of copyright/licensing issues. The band is fantastic, but they may not have the legal right to broadcast the music they play during breaks.
@@R_C420 They sometimes switch to alternate camera shots to hide minor edits. Giving viewers the ability to "choose [a] camera feed" wouldn't work at all for this style of production.
Why is it that the story about the tourist in Norway messing with the Walrus, made Me think that the tourist told the walrus that " I am the Egg Man ".... 🧐
I was wondering whether the cheese balls man was Trump especially with the orange jump suit but then I realised he was unlikely to have stopped at just the one jar so it couldn't have been.
I would love it if someone gave me some Korean, I love Korean BBQ, Bulgogi and kimchi... OH! You meant the language! Sorry, it's time for lunch and my stomach is growling. 😉
Do most S. Koreans have wonderful sense of humor? Every Korean person I've ever known has had a delightful wit. One of my best friends in high school, Peter Kim, was my partner in drama class and he was so funny I blamed him for making me forget my lines! My dentist, Dr. Choe, is so sweet and funny I actually look forward to going to the dentist now. In the 1980s, I worked as a computer tech with several Korean men and women, they made that boring job so much more fun. The only Korean I dislike is Kim Jong-Un. I hate him for the cruel way he treats his own people.
Sprite teamed up with a mechanic.. "What if we?... Summer's coming & you know that everyone knows engine coolant keeps vehicles from overheating righhht?" "People wanna be cool all the time and we need sales!"
Killing the customer with engine coolant means no repeat custumers. And a hella lot of lawsuits. Marketing geniuses and product designers really need to rethink this. Or take the cowards way out and drink it themselves.
Best Meanwhile ever!! I have alpacas. They can take an hour or more to do the deed. They make so much noise, you would think someone is being repeatedly stabbed. I'll bet there's a you tube. Hey what ever happened to that women on RUclips who mimed DJT ramblingss? Can you find her?
Tina Fey’s old tale of either Colbert or Carell being a ladies man during their time at second city haunts me. She never revealed who it was and I have no idea lol
Well, watching a person oink down a whole container of cheese balls for free in a delightful park setting would be a pretty good deal, I think. Especially when you hear all the horror stories about how expensive things in New York can be.
I couldnt agree more about that Up movie... tremendous downer. The moral at the end is basically 'its okay to give up your dream and just do something else'
Educated guess: the monologue is a teaser released close to,East Coast air time to get people to turn on their TVs and watch the show as it airs and Meanwhile is released after the show airs on the West Coast so the TV audience gets to see it first.
I'm really starting to wonder what Stephen did to piss off the writers' room that they keep giving him such tongue twisters for the introduction to Meanwhile. Yowza!
The alpaca bit should've been a 'peenwhile' segment
Love when Louis Cato can’t help but laugh. Hahah

I’ve waited all my life for a moment like this
The alpaca story has me dying of laughing! I love MEANWHILE!!
Always love how the writers try to trip Stephen up with the Meanwhile preamble, I think he’s only fumbled it once or twice lol
Can't stand those. Used to fascinate me; now they're pretty indigestable.
Nope. Fake news! Sad.
You know they don't do those live, right?
Just skip past the useless word salad.
At this point, they can (or probably already do) ask a AI to write a 'Meanwhile segment preamble like Stephen Colbert'. I should try that out..
Junky's grumble trunk. One of the best.

OMG I laughed so hard during the alpaca segment
Menthol Sprite? That'll go great with my Newports. Just pour it into my stoma.
ed. " don't you need 2 for a list? "
the alpaca jokes, yea!
" i dunno i dunno. " that look ❤
Not even straight up Korean can faze him on these intros. Legend.
Really thought ‘light butt play’ was going to show up somewhere
Does THAT topic interest you?
It nearly took him down the day before! I was sure it was going to come up! XD

Don't Bug the Walrus! (Goo goo ca-choo!)
This is my favorite segment.
I wonder if alpacas engage in Light Butt Play!
It's like an isolation chamber for the mind. Where, like altered states, you can regress into a happier more primitive form of yourself.
😆😆😆😆😆💖💖😻🌵👵🐺🖖
I just imagined him on salvia, and it's absolutely epic.
Carbonation is actually a cooling agent. When the carbonic acid becomes H2O plus CO2, it takes some energy with it, cooling the drink.
Trump would be biggly annoyed if he found out more people turned up to watch a man eat cheeseballs than turned up to support him at his trial.
I hope no one tells him 😁
The guy wore an orange mask. Maybe it WAS Trump....

Till testers started lying to get the hell out of the lab. Is my guess...
Please start streaming the Late Show Band performances. They deserve the recognition and respect.
YES! They are the best band on any late night show! Sorry Roots, y'all are great too, but I'm not a fan of Fallon. Nothing personal, but he's no Seth or Stephen.

How did he disturb the walrus? By Describing Alpaca sex! 😂
"ALPACA SEX!"
As a topic for a joke? SURE, I guess. (Give that writer a bonus!) 💙
Stephen's sheer joy and hitting the drum beats was freaking ADORABLE and made my whole night.
amazed he didn't reference trump for the KFC perfume
Cheese balls? How about...
...CHEEZ NUTZ!
They are no longer allowed to use the "cooling" sensation in cigarettes so they had to use it somewhere. Mmmm, menthol Sprite
Whaaat? No more menthol cigarettes? I mean, I quit a few years ago, but what if I want to relapse somewhere down the line? 🤔🚬💨
Why is it that the story about the tourist in Norway messing with the Walrus, made Me think that the tourist told the walrus that " I am the Egg Man ".... 🧐
No one under 55 will get this...
"Drivin around, king of the town, always got my window rolled down."
I'd swear that the writers are competing to make the most contorting tongue twisters stump our man😂
I was wondering whether the cheese balls man was Trump especially with the orange jump suit but then I realised he was unlikely to have stopped at just the one jar so it couldn't have been.
How did he disturb the walrus? He played a Beatles song on a high quality Bluetooth!
I think it was closer to Alpaca sex but not just talking about it.....
That's how they got "too close" 🥲❤
"One" is a list if you format it correctly and have nice stationery.
That was downright mean giving him Korean! 😆
I would love it if someone gave me some Korean, I love Korean BBQ, Bulgogi and kimchi... OH! You meant the language! Sorry, it's time for lunch and my stomach is growling. 😉
To the tune of ...Drunken sailor: What would you do with a hung alpaca...
Brilliant! 💙

Best post-coital joke I've ever heard was an ex who rolled over after and said, "I think you bruised my fucking cervix"
🤘🧙♂🤘
How is that a joke? That is just painful.

I was shocked there wasn't a trump joke with that KFC cologne story.

Awesome

There must be a million "disturb the walrus' jokes...
Some women have enough trouble keeping Donald Trump away from them without the added allure of KFC perfume. "Grab 'em by the poultry!"
Maybe alpacas don't have cervixes?
They don't if the male is doing it right.
Male alpaca: "We don't need no stinkin' cervix!" ;-P
How come Meanwhile is always uploaded 4 hours later than the monologue?
Educated guess: the monologue is a teaser released close to,East Coast air time to get people to turn on their TVs and watch the show as it airs and Meanwhile is released after the show airs on the West Coast so the TV audience gets to see it first.
Because it's called free.
