yeah, that was a hard turn, shouldn't have even gone into D&D. I got a feeling someone either forgot the line, or needed to double check so he quickly brought that up.
The Golden State Killer lived in my neighborhood when I lived in the Sacramento area. I never knew she was involved until recently, and I am forever grateful for the work she did.
I've always enjoyed Patton Oswalt's performances, and my respect for him as an individual has definitely grown for this touching tribute to his late wife. What an honor to her memory & life's work to complete & publish her book. ❤
Anyone else blown away that he finished his wife's book (even with help)!? Not to mention keeping so busy with all his other work while grieving, raising a little girl, not to mention finding her a new mom? I'm in awe of Patton's time-management skills alone!
Right? His dad was a colonel in the military. Imagine looking and sounding like Patton as a kid visiting base?! He HAD to succeed. Incredible drive and discipline.
@@jediknightjairinaiki560 Nothing can erase the past. If I were to die soon, I would definitely want my partner to thrive and be happy and my daughter to not lose out on the vital benefits of having a mom. Disrespect needn’t enter into the equation.
@@kerikah I don't know if you believe in anything existing after this life, but for the sake of argument let's say you do. How do you imagine your husband and you and your daughter and your replacement existing? Some type of Sister Wives existence? The ability of most people to move on, to replace the dead like they're replacing a worn out pair of shoes is disheartening and disrespectful. If the person who has died meant sooooo much to those who are still living, there shouldn't be a need nor a want to find the next someone who means sooooo much to them.
@@jediknightjairinaiki560 Most people have at least a few romantic relationships spread out over a lifetime. Through all these relationships- even the ones that are not the most successful- we learn about ourselves, we help and love another person, which seems to me a net positive. Sometimes good relationships end against anyone’s will and we can’t be with that person anymore. Should we be frozen in time- dooming ourselves to a life of solitude- to make someone feel better who, frankly, no longer has any feelings? If someone dies, should we die [by refusing future love] ourselves out of so-called respect? (If we do have feelings up there in Heaven, they’re probably a lot more enlightened and understanding than the ignorant ones we feel on Earth, so the deceased would want us to live life to the fullest and not be more torn apart by their loss than necessary.)
They should do a documentary style show about D&D starring celebrities that love and played D&D. Patton Oswalt, Vin Diesel, Anderson Cooper, Jon Favreau and Stephen of course to name a few. I'd watch it.
kevin willems I've no idea what that is which means I have to check it out tonight. I loved my time as a roleplayer and only stopped when I moved away from my friends. Makes me nostalgic. I assume Harmonquest is a show and if so I gratfully thank you for telling me it exists. I hope it good. Cheers mate
CerBoris yeah man it's pretty much exactly what you described with really great animations while they're playing as well. All the episodes are on VRV for free and some great guests like Aubrey Plaza, Thomas Middleditch, Paul Sheer and Patton did an ep too!
Dylan Brennan Awesome Dylan. Thanks a lot. I will definitely check it out and if I remember I'll add another comment to this thread to let you know what I think. I'm pretty excited to watch it actually so again, thank you.
CerBoris Awesome man let me know what you think! If you dig it i highly recommend My Brother My Brother and Me too on VRV. It's a podcast I love that they were able to fanagle into a TV show that had me crying laughing during multiple episodes
*Steve Campbell* iirc Paladins just have to be 'Lawful' alignment... Good/Neutral/Evil depends on the deity they serve. (And it's important to remember that 'Lawful' doesn't refer to right/wrong in either the moral or legal sense, but simply that they strictly follow their own code and beliefs.) *[/nerding]*
Would love to see more of Oswalt and Colbert talking more. I think they woukd get on together really well. I bet Stephen was getting pretty drunk by the end of that taping. Drinking with Oswalt and Lawrence is a meaty task.
I had those same lucky socks in 1983, and they helped me score an anachronistic turkey drumstick at the Renaissance Faire. I hope they do at least as well for Mr. Oswalt.
And before I get attacked for that, let me point out that they were not yet common enough to be handed out to tubercular beggar-girls by Anne Boleyn's ladies-in-waiting. Turkey legs, that is, not striped stockings.
I love that there's a playlist of Stephen Colbert talking about Dungeon and Dragons. I hope he gets some of the Critical Role cast on his show after the animated show comes out.
Wait Lisa who was the president after Donald Trump almost destroyed America ,Lisa, and homer who sleeps on the job and has easily almost caused like, 11 nuclear explosion??? Ohhh Ted!
Used to play D&D? Still do, although it's the Pathfinder version. And yes, that's kind of sad, but it still brings me a little bit of joy. Oh, and good on Patton for finishing his late wife's work. I would love to meet him someday, he seems really nice and down to earth.
American late night should just follow Graham Norton's lead and adopt his talk show format (i.e., put all the guests together on the same couch, an alcoholic beverage within reach). It's more screen time for each guest, and the spontaneous banter creates a richer viewing experience.
One of the best interview segments I ever saw was Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart on the Graham Norton show. Sir Ian Mckellen randomly turned up and sat down and it was the most relaxed and jovial chat amongst friends you ever saw. Great viewing.
Michelle McNamara was a great woman and was dearly missed when Joseph DeAngelo was finally caught. Without her dedication catching him and building his case would have been missing a vital contributor. ❤️❤️❤️
At one point I want to be manically depressed and successful like Patton. I want to be able to be invited on to a popular talkshow, request drinks, take my shoes off, get comfy, and lastly drinking from the mug of the host to said talkshow I was invited on. That's success.
The first chapter I read on that book made me cry...The unimaginable thing this monster did to regular people is insane. Beware of the monstrosity that this criminal did.
@5:20-ish, Oswalt is describing how McNamara "entered the discussion". When you become interested in something, you will typically *learn* about it from others - you'll read others' accounts, look into the history, see what's being said about this subject. And then, at some point, you realize that it's time for YOU to "enter the discussion" - it's time for YOU to become one of those experts. So you'll start writing articles, even *BOOKS*, and add YOUR VOICE to the ongoing discussion. Do this.
I would say the _Simpsons_ metaphor is pretty apt, though incomplete. Democrats tend to be quite a _bit_ like Lisa. Republicans, sometimes, tend to be like _Homer_ (bumbling, easily-manipulated incompetents) and _other_ times, tend to be like _Mr. Burns_ (highly intelligent, surely know better, but downright evil, utterly manipulative, psychopaths).
Loved the intro when they start drinking. Lot of fun there. But I was actually expecting waaay more talk about Dungeons & Dragons, but they just said "I had this edition - oh, and I had this one". I was expecting memories of games they played back in the day. :'( This video should be renamed into something like "Patton Oswalt Discusses his late wife's book" or something.
The moment that Cruz mentioned “The Simpsons” I got scared. I saw some nasty comments including someone saying they had never contemplated killing himself until he saw Cruz doing his Homer Simpson impression.
I am a large fan of both Mr Colbert and Mr Oswalt & have enjoyed them both for decades and I mean no disrespect in the following: That wasn't really a discussion about Dungeons and Dragons. Please excuse this inappropriate outburst.
Stephen's first interview *after* he revealed what's behind his desk. Maybe this will help getting guests? But then it moves from "come for the interview, stay for the booze," to "come for the booze, stay because you daren't go out knowing what you just said on nationwide TV."
I want to see these two excellent people discuss subjects dear to them for half an hour, an hour, as a comedy special. It's fucking bullshit that we only get 6 minutes of them. These two specifically, I want to hear so much more of them.
Jen the Hollywood slut got two segments because her blockbuster is coming out ,only so much time, they had to rush ,it's sad and pathetic but pretty obvious and expected, I'm sure Stephen would've liked to talk to Patton longer as well but celebrity equels ratings , this world is about money first kids, good luck
I've seen Patton on before talking about his wife, the loss, and her book. He was just starting to delve into her work-space. It does look like a bad cut or hard turn, but he's been on before talking about finishing it for her.... he's also recently re-married and maybe Steven didn't wanna get him all emotional? From what I've seen, Patton took Michelle's death pretty hard... grief and closure ebb and flow as they will. Him kicking off his shoes, too, was classic Patton.
"Patton Oswalt Briefly Mentions Dungeons & Dragons Over Drinks"
They probably used that title for the alliteration.
"So I played D&D, you played D&D, anyway: your dead wife wrote this book."
yeah, that was a hard turn, shouldn't have even gone into D&D. I got a feeling someone either forgot the line, or needed to double check so he quickly brought that up.
Or Steven noticed he was running out of time, and had to wrap it up
Yeah...giving this video the tag-line of "Discussing D&D" is a little misleading....
That's what I'm thinking. They've only got X amount of time between commercials and have to keep it tight.
@gus dupree The first guest usually (always?) sticks around for a commercial break. Also you don't seem like a very good person.
needed like 95% more DND talk
So almost twice as much? why not 10 times as much?
Yeah, mis-advertised definitely
For anyone who didn't know, they caught the Golden State Killer, almost certainly entirely because of the stones Patricia McNamara kicked over.
Yeah detectives wont awknowledge her at all, but she was a big part of it. It's all thanks to her.
*Michelle McNamara
that is extremely true, her investigating reportive efforts gave the last push needed to find that monster
Correction: Her name was Michelle, not Patricia.
The Golden State Killer lived in my neighborhood when I lived in the Sacramento area. I never knew she was involved until recently, and I am forever grateful for the work she did.
I've always enjoyed Patton Oswalt's performances, and my respect for him as an individual has definitely grown for this touching tribute to his late wife. What an honor to her memory & life's work to complete & publish her book. ❤
Every one should have somebody who cares about you so much they make your passion theirs and finish your dream for you in your memory
Get Stephen on Critical Role
That would be so amazing!
Seconded
Now that would be one hell of a guest player.
Matthew Evans I WAS LOOKING FOR A CRITTER COMMENT
It would be an awesome episode ♡

What better way to erase the past than to find your daughter a "new mom". So, utterly disrespectful.

Her book helped bring that man to justice! I watched a special on it not too long ago. She was a remarkable woman 🙏🏾
Best part of the show is when Colbert brings the drinks out. Glad Patton was funny one minute then so raw and honest talking about his late wife.

Vin Diesel?? Really?? he looks like the kind of teenagers who rather be smoking in a park with other teenagers.
Neo Baggings fighting Morphorks in Narnia. I want a animated short for it.
Harmonquest is your closest option. Patton makes a hilarious appearance
"When this baby hits 88mph, you're gonna see some serious shit."
that damn level 14 republican paladin trying to destroy the ring of captain picard by throwing it into the hogswarts sorting hat
There are no Republican Paladins.
Lol
You've never heard of Paladins of Tyranny? Unearthed Arcana D&D 3.5 lol
A fuckin McConquest Paladin

Touching, his commitment to his late wife's legacy. Sorry for your loss, sir.
Would love to see more of Oswalt and Colbert talking more. I think they woukd get on together really well.
I bet Stephen was getting pretty drunk by the end of that taping. Drinking with Oswalt and Lawrence is a meaty task.
Solid Bourbon choice with Eagle Rare, the best produced alcohol to come out of the Buffalo Trace distillery
Oh my god, I almost laughed my oatmeal out of my mouth when Patton shook his empty glass at Stephen.
Where is the 3.5 hour extended edition of this interview!? In the name of the Ilúvatar I must have more of this interview!
All these comments are from so long ago. Steven Colbert did Red Nose Day with Matt Mercer. An easy stepping stone for Steven to guest on CR.
Patton needs to get a monocle. He could bring it back.
He guested as the Penguin on CollegeHumor, too! I see it
holy fuck yes!!! That'd be fantastic
Not Prussian enough
That would totally work.
Srithor late, but I see what you did there.
I like this interview. The moment the Patton got comfortable by taking his shoes off, best one ever. I also like his socks too.
Haha... takes off his shoes and sits with his feet under him like JLaw. Too funny!
i love how patton is just like "you're not gonna get jlaw drunk and then hold out on me"
I had those same lucky socks in 1983, and they helped me score an anachronistic turkey drumstick at the Renaissance Faire. I hope they do at least as well for Mr. Oswalt.
And before I get attacked for that, let me point out that they were not yet common enough to be handed out to tubercular beggar-girls by Anne Boleyn's ladies-in-waiting. Turkey legs, that is, not striped stockings.
@@anne-droid7739 Love the socks so very much.
Patton Oswalt and Stephen Colbert, together in an interview... yes!!
I feel like the title of the video made a promise it did not deliver on. Dungeons and Dragons was easily the least talked about thing in that video.
Stephen would probably be an amazing person to play D&D with.. and he needs to be a guest on Critical Role. :D
Fizzlefuse yes!
What up fellow Critters!
@@FulcanMal bidet
Have you not seen the 1on1 one shit he did with Matt Mercer?
30 seconds of this nearly 7 minute video is about D&D. Top tier title and description.
Looks like Stephen picked the wrong year to give up spirits for Lent.
Haha I just remembered he said that that the other day 😂
There's always next year
New Message isn’t that done? Been awhile.
Naw... Lent still has a ways to go.. and Hiya.. i've been here.. :)
@krk Lent goes till April 1st this year my dude :p it’s a multi-month celebration
Isn’t that way it works the one thing you say you’ll give up rears up to tempt you more than ever?
patton oswalt is amazing and awesome. lovely!
I wish I could play D&D with Patton and Steven. That would be a badass game.
This might be my favourite Patton Oswalt interview ever ❤
Ever since his wife kicked the bucket and he went on the sympathy tour, he's been an annoying gnat
I love Patton. I just didn't realize that Stephen was quicker. I always love these guys!
Patton is one of my favorite people.
Patton Oswalt is a national treasure.
I see Dungeons and Dragons, I click. I'm a simple guy, what can I say?
I love that there's a playlist of Stephen Colbert talking about Dungeon and Dragons. I hope he gets some of the Critical Role cast on his show after the animated show comes out.
Wait Lisa who was the president after Donald Trump almost destroyed America ,Lisa, and homer who sleeps on the job and has easily almost caused like, 11 nuclear explosion??? Ohhh Ted!
It takes an impressively charismatic person to interview Patton that badly.
Used to play D&D? Still do, although it's the Pathfinder version. And yes, that's kind of sad, but it still brings me a little bit of joy. Oh, and good on Patton for finishing his late wife's work. I would love to meet him someday, he seems really nice and down to earth.
Patton is the only person I would ever seriously consider getting drunk with.
Gosh I love Patton Oswalt
No shoes day? I love Patton he is such a nice guy!
I love this idea 'over drinks' segments. More.
Stephen should make the drink a regular component of the show--for those desiring it obviously--it gives a casual tone to the conversation.
American late night should just follow Graham Norton's lead and adopt his talk show format (i.e., put all the guests together on the same couch, an alcoholic beverage within reach). It's more screen time for each guest, and the spontaneous banter creates a richer viewing experience.
Stephen adopted the alcohol after interviewing Graham Norton. I love Graham's show but Stephen's does show it up in other ways
Graham is happy to let his guests answer questions, in large part because he doesn't have commercial breaks.
One of the best interview segments I ever saw was Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart on the Graham Norton show. Sir Ian Mckellen randomly turned up and sat down and it was the most relaxed and jovial chat amongst friends you ever saw. Great viewing.
Michelle McNamara was a great woman and was dearly missed when Joseph DeAngelo was finally caught.
Without her dedication catching him and building his case would have been missing a vital contributor. ❤️❤️❤️
Genuinely one of my favorite people on the planet.
Colbert pulls out the bottles, Patton Oswalt pulls out a corkscrew.
I absolutely love Patton! He has a one-way path to my funny bone and he is my best friend in my head.
My favorite new segment
This is a fantastic interview.
For a second I forgot this was a couple of years old and as soon as Patton recieved his drink I expected some sort of 'fucking corona' bit.
At one point I want to be manically depressed and successful like Patton. I want to be able to be invited on to a popular talkshow, request drinks, take my shoes off, get comfy, and lastly drinking from the mug of the host to said talkshow I was invited on.
That's success.
The first chapter I read on that book made me cry...The unimaginable thing this monster did to regular people is insane. Beware of the monstrosity that this criminal did.
Beautiful interview.
This whole show was awesome!!!
I thought he was going to talk about the shooting. I wasn’t expecting that...hahaha. Nice one.
@5:20-ish, Oswalt is describing how McNamara "entered the discussion". When you become interested in something, you will typically *learn* about it from others - you'll read others' accounts, look into the history, see what's being said about this subject.

Love you Patent. No wonder you were nervous at the beginning. 🤘
This needs to become a thing. Drinking and talking makes it more fun and relaxed.
I love his stripe socks when he took his shoes off.
I'm getting that book.
the alcoholic in me loves how often stephen drinks on his show. Here's to you steven *cheers's and drinks nightly beverage*
i watched this drunk. i love you guys so much.
Loving the late night drinks! Don't have too many Steve!
Patton Oswalt is my new spirit dude.
When they arrested the Golden State Killer, I said “we got him Michelle “.
PLEASEEEE MAKE THIS A NEW SEGMENT FOREVER!
I think Patton needs a hug.
The interview was good but they literally just chucked in d&d for like 30 seconds for no reason and that’s the video title?
I would say the _Simpsons_ metaphor is pretty apt, though incomplete. Democrats tend to be quite a _bit_ like Lisa. Republicans, sometimes, tend to be like _Homer_ (bumbling, easily-manipulated incompetents) and _other_ times, tend to be like _Mr. Burns_ (highly intelligent, surely know better, but downright evil, utterly manipulative, psychopaths).
lazyperfectionist1 point
This interview was far too short. I would listen to a podcast of Patton.
His parents expected so much more naming him paton
I played "Chainmail," from which D&D grew. Little grey paperback, from the Twin Cities.
Loved the intro when they start drinking. Lot of fun there.
But I was actually expecting waaay more talk about Dungeons & Dragons, but they just said "I had this edition - oh, and I had this one". I was expecting memories of games they played back in the day. :'(
This video should be renamed into something like "Patton Oswalt Discusses his late wife's book" or something.
Steven is drinking Havana Club "Selección de Maestros" , I love that Cuban rum.
I don't know why, but I just love Patton Oswald in his striped socks, sitting cross-legged on the guest chair.
Steve's a connoisseur, you see him sniff his drink
I would dearly love to play D&D with those two.
The audience had no clue what they were talking about LOL
Well, looks like they caught the guy earlier today, so I'm glad that he finished her work. A weird segue into it, but still, good shit.
Lets get Stephen on Harmonquest.
Ranma! You idiot!
actual title should be "We Mentioned D&D So We Could Clickbait the Title"
Stephen seems to be referring to 'Holmes Basic', which was the second edition of D&D rather than the first.
She did, Patton. She caught him. It's a tremendous shame she didn't get to see it, but she caught him. Your wife did good.
His segment was so short.....I wanted to hear more!!!
The moment that Cruz mentioned “The Simpsons” I got scared. I saw some nasty comments including someone saying they had never contemplated killing himself until he saw Cruz doing his Homer Simpson impression.
Two sips and Neo Baggins was born.
Bone to pick. I thought that was just something my Mom said. Love it
Eagle rare is so good. Class AF Stephen!
I want to be just famous enough to talk to Colbert about nerdy things.
I am a large fan of both Mr Colbert and Mr Oswalt & have enjoyed them both for decades and I mean no disrespect in the following: That wasn't really a discussion about Dungeons and Dragons. Please excuse this inappropriate outburst.
Stephen should have drinks for all of his guests. It works for Graham Norton.
And so a new tradition is born.
I started with first edition paperback - it was only as big as a magazine!
Stephen's first interview *after* he revealed what's behind his desk. Maybe this will help getting guests? But then it moves from "come for the interview, stay for the booze," to "come for the booze, stay because you daren't go out knowing what you just said on nationwide TV."
I love this funny little man. lol Seriously Patton your awesome
"Youth for Cruz!"
Well, better that than "Cruise for Youth."
Which, in any case, as we all now know, was Judge Roy Moore's motto first.
Oh hey look it's two of my favorite people in the world
I want to see these two excellent people discuss subjects dear to them for half an hour, an hour, as a comedy special. It's fucking bullshit that we only get 6 minutes of them. These two specifically, I want to hear so much more of them.
A very rushed segment to talk about Michelle McNamara's life's work😐
It's a private thing , creepy how strangers make an assessment from their living room or wherever, anyway.....
gus dupree he was on the show to promote Michelle McNamara's book that she worked on diligently for years. It is not private. It's an important book.
Jen the Hollywood slut got two segments because her blockbuster is coming out ,only so much time, they had to rush ,it's sad and pathetic but pretty obvious and expected, I'm sure Stephen would've liked to talk to Patton longer as well but celebrity equels ratings , this world is about money first kids, good luck
what the actual fuck?
I've seen Patton on before talking about his wife, the loss, and her book. He was just starting to delve into her work-space. It does look like a bad cut or hard turn, but he's been on before talking about finishing it for her.... he's also recently re-married and maybe Steven didn't wanna get him all emotional?
