You can generally tell that Stephen Colbert, and John Oliver truly like each other and are truly friends. The Daily Show with John Stewart really produced a lot of fantastic talent. I would love to see the old cast get back together for a one hour episode.
Please number the interview segments if you are not going to combine them. That way we can know the order in which they were shot even if they are uploaded out of order (as here)
Watch a little bit and you can easily find the first one as the guest seat is vacant, to find the last of the series quickly fast forward to the end and you can see the guest goodbye/leaving.
I was thinking the same thing, they should number the videos, I always have to check them before watching and sometimes are difficult to find out which one is the right order
I worked as a stand-up comedian for a number of years in Australia, and have had the "pleasure" of working with both Mr Methane, and Stevie Starr (Multiple Times). Not at the same gig, but in the height of their respective touring careers. And I agree with John... They were both extraordinarily lovely people, and it was great to meet and work with them. But it does surprise me that they can still have performing careers after so many years.
I've seen Mr. Methane on Dutch television some 10 to 20 years ago. He was quite serious about his art. He told the reporter something to the extent that he was wary about accepting invitations to perform in certain places. He was determined to keep up standards, he did not want to make a spectacle about it or sell out his talent. All with a straight face. This probably only works in Britain.
I swear as John was telling the story of Mr. Methane I thought “That guy should tour with Stevie Starr.” If it makes you feel better John in 1996 I went to a trade show where colleges book live entertainment repping a band I was friends with and I was in the booth directly across from Stevie and got to witness his act over and over and over again for an entire 3 day weekend. He’s a super nice guy, and for anyone wondering it’s not magic he really actually does that stuff.
I love how laid-back all these interview segments was. Little structure, just chatting, firing some t-shirts. I hope there's more of this in the show going forward, it's some of the best parts of a late night show when it's much less scripted/organized!
Five months of SAG-AFTRA strike, and Colbert's Late Show comes roaring back with a clip of John Oliver discussing - in excruciating detail - two stand-up acts involving performative flatulence and controlled regurgitation, and how he bombed by telling Desert Storm jokes between them. I don't know precisely what the fuck this catastrophically stupid timeline has in store for late night television as it currently stands, but if it's this kind of thing then I'm absolutely here for it.
The T shirt giveaway just made me miss David Letterman, who never failed to take advantage of an opportunity to go outside. I miss the dogs jumping into the pool, the batting contests, throwing strange things off the roof, all of it. Long live Dave.
Mr. Methane won a Tony award a few years ago and rightly so. He has mastered the art of not only just being able to break wind at will, but he can actually ensure the gastric emmisions which blow out of his posterior, are so precisely modulated, he can fart TWICE AT THE SAME TIME (an expert ability known to proctologists as the 'Twin Gusts') and tune the escaping flatulence, so it erupts in musical notes/keys which harmonize. Astounding talent. I believe the encore of his act was his rectal rendition of En Vogue's hit, "Never Gonna Get It". He recently completed a sell out tour in which he concentrated solely on hits by Simon and Garfunkel. This was all at outdoor locations of course, as even venues boasting the most up to date and sophisticated of ventilation systems, cannot fully expel the appalling odour which attacks the audience after a few minutes. Complimentary nose plugs, nasal masks and other olfactory inhibitors have all been tried and tested to combat this issue, all to no avail. This may however, be a blessing in disguise for Mr. Methane. If he were to increase his performance rate by appearing in standard arenas to thousands of fans, he runs the risk of rectal collapse. The expulsion of gas via one's anus is a vital bodily function.... the manipulation of that function could have dire repercussions in the long run. This was brought to Mr. Methane's attention most brutally back in 2012, whilst he was performing in Hyde Park to hundreds of delighted fans. During a particularly up-tempo performance of 'Funky Town' by Lips Inc, he inadvertently defecated with alarming ferocity. This accident not only soiled his costume, but it prevented any further musicality being strained through his anal passage leaving the congregated masses extremely disappointed.
I wonder if Stephen Colbert just realizes he has no guests lined up, shoots John Oliver a DM, and 20min later he's there to pass the evening. Pretty cool system they have, if so
5:05 a.m. - I have a hot coffee and THREE (count ‘em…3 !!) segments of LSSC with Stephen and John. My heart is full. LOVE John’s wife’s response…time to go back to the studio, honey. We’ve all been there, Mrs. O.
LOL, at the very end after the duel as Stephen is plugging Last Week Tonight, I'd have died if John was just lying motionless on the sidewalk with a t-shirt across his face.

@Dax4You what do you think words are? Its literally a contraction in the dictionary. And i don't think anyone has ever said yall to sound smart. You think yall sounds smart?
Yesterday you got my hope up that you would finally start uploading these multi-part interviews in order. It was actually uploaded 1, 2, 3. But then you did this: 2, 3, 1.
I mean, prequels are fine. But I don't need the prequel to a small portion of an interview. If for some reason, you can't upload them in order, just add "Part x" to the title and/or thumbnail.
I love in the segment before this when John shot a lady in the front row right in the face with the shirt cannon :D (She laughed it off; but it scared John for a second!)
John Oliver's current show and format of comedy is perfect for him and to be honest: he stank as a standup comedian. He found the right formula for his style of comedy, and that's great.
YEEEEEAAAAAAH!!! WELCOME BACK, EVERYBODY!!!! Just so you know, i think i started to hit rock bottom dumb 3 nights ago & started to watch those romance lifetime movies. Yeah. Rock bottom. WELCOME BACK TO ALL!!! WELCOME BACK, MY BRAIN!!! WOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!
Mr. Methane was a long time guest of Drew & Mike on WRIF in Detroit... yes, our introduction to him was over radio. He did get brought in for avlive event on at least one occasion...
Hearing Mr. Methanes name after all these years made me immediately think of Drew & Mike. I can hear Mikes special laugh talking about him. Great memories!
OMG! I actually remember seeing Mr Methane. It was some variety show or talk show that was on in Australia at the time. The salient details escape me. But the name and the act are impossible to forget.
"2 Comedians On A Street In New York With Tee Shirt Cannons" is what Jerry Seinfeld originally wanted as his show, but due to hitting random people in the face like John Oliver who can't aim shirt based firearms they had to change Jerrys show to getting coffee. Thanks for the laughs, I'm happy the writers got their agreement I hope the actors get their soon too.
This is a brilliantly multilayered joke! See, John Oliver's REAL rock bottom comedy moment comes right after he and Colbert awkwardly trip over each other's stale jokes, when they go outside together to shoot t-shirts at loiterers.
I booked Stevie Star. Amazing act. He asked the audience which way round they wanted the goldfish regurgitated, tail first or head first. Some smart arse said sideways - which is exactly what happened.

All the comics I worked with Down Under were great people, I can't recall a bad experience ever 👍💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨
John: "You may be wondering if there were two microphones available to the performers that night ..."
Me: Oh no ....
Yeah, my answer to that was "I was not, but, now that you bring it up, I think I know the answer..."
Stephen’s face during that pause 😅

Mr. Methane had a succesful run on Broadway
Yet his entire act literally blows!

@@Jeff-q4u Nah, that's just sour grapes mate.... everyone can see that x
I said it once, I said it twice and I'm going to say it again: everytime John Oliver is on the show, I know it's going to be good

He seemed genuinely delighted listening to that story.
John Oliver or John Stewart. The man loves his Johns.
I think he has even more fun with Steve Carell

I saw Mr Regurgitator at the University of East Anglia. He was genuinely impressive. I must have missed John and Mr Methane.
This interview was "nice enough."
It passed the evening.
Nice one.

Mr. Methane is the greatest ever stage act and I can not recommend him highly enough.
Absolutely superb skills, intellectually stimulating, a real tour de force.
I recall he was on Britain’s got Talent (or a similar show) once and almost immediately got shut down.
Our next Speaker of the House.
@@anthonycudahy7207 Can he fart "Ooorder!" and "Retract that statement!" and "Honourable Gentleman"? Then he's definitely qualified.
Mr Methane, UK 90's Late night TV Gold. An episode of The Word wasn't complete without a petomaniac performance!
It's always a good time to see John Oliver visit the other comedian's shows
It’s always good when these two are together. Wished Oliver had more airtime on the podcast but this was great.
I wonder if Stephen Colbert just realizes he has no guests lined up, shoots John Oliver a DM, and 20min later he's there to pass the evening. Pretty cool system they have, if so
