4:28 He stays so rested because elves only need to trance 4 hours a day to receive the same rest other races need 8 hours for! Come on, Stephen, get it together!
mmmpathy we bond over Tabletop RPGs like we're long lost relatives meeting for the first time, but in our case the conversations we have bonding together won't calm down, and will even rev up when we play a campaign.
For the people offended Colbert said "I don't speak Spanish" regarding the Portuguese: did it not occur to you that it's possible that was an intentional moment of humor, to purposefully feign ignorance especially when talking about awkward Brazilian porn channels? Colbert is a pretty well-educated guy, and he spoke a lot of Spanish on the Colbert Report over the years, so I'm sure he does know at least some Spanish. It's like if someone said "Konnichi wa" and someone replied to be funny, "I don't speak Chinese". Colbert may have very well slipped there, but I doubt it; he's usually pretty on point.
I'm from Australia and didn't know who he was until he was on the Kathy Griffin show, and damn........he's adorable. I can't help but smile when he laughs.
It's incredible to see how great of an interviewer stephen is. Up to 2:00 you could see that cooper didn't have much to add, do stephen talked for most of the time. But he knew with kevin smith to stop talking. Both interviews not at all awkward, but conducted in different ways
I've gotten over people admitting that they played D&D like it's a secret. When we were kids you hid that stuff but honestly little makes a celebrity seem more sexy and down-to-earth than knowing what a 20-sided die is.
“Elves have extra dexterity” I love how legit Colbert is. Cooper played one game of DND one time and is trying to get to Colbert’s level. This dude is a level 100 dungeon master
For those wondering: Stephen played a D&D session (a one-shot) with Critical Role's Matthew Mercer, a professional voice actor for Red Nose Day. It's fantastic and gives a great example of Dungeons and Dragons.
My dead human paladin is cheering from heaven (no grave since his body got destroyed, since he was within the blast radius when the demon he killed exploded)
HALF ELF BARDS REPRESENT!!! (though 1st Edition Bards were just nutso OP, fighter HP, then thief skills, THEN Druid spells? no wonder nerfed in 2nd edition!)
As the shut-in at home, I think I just etched the bottom surface of my desk. Both man-crushes do D&D, and one met the God-King himself? Elminster's beard!
Honestly I think it's awesome that all of these celebs are admitting to being huge into DnD; it really makes the hobby look better than it used to look a decade before.
I don't always agree with Coopz, nor some of his choices in reporting etc. But I still like who he seems to be as a person, or who he presents himself as. Seems like a really pleasant dude to be around with a big heart. Internet; make of that as you will lol.
People need to chill and stop overreacting. Mistakes and brainfart moments do happen. I'm sure Colbert knows they speak Portuguese in Brazil, he probably just heard "anal aventura" and his brain just gravitated towards Spanish without thinking because it sounds like spanish. I once told someone that they speak Brazilian in Brazil even though i knew full well they speak Portuguese over there. People make mistakes, it's what we humans do best. Despite what we may like to think, Stephen too - is only human like the rest of us.
mickys333 Small mistakes in a big moment become big mistakes. This isn't quite a rocket launch or a presidential speech, but it is a tens-of-millions-are-listening moment.
Not a big deal, and i'm brazilian. Thing is, our portuguese actually differs quite a lot from the original Portugal one, so some people believe we should call Brazilian. It's pretty much already PT-BR. And again: Not a big deal.
We actually speak Brazilian, have you heard someone from here speak and compared to a Portuguese speaking? We can understand each other but it's very dissimilar
If Anderson would just step up his game and do more hard journalism instead of the everyone has a valid opinion approach he could go down as one of the all time greats.
Of all the journalists on the major news networks, Cooper does the "hardest" journalism. There's no escaping the valid opinion approach during the election news cycle anyway, otherwise you wouldn't exactly be a journalist.
Hat in Grand Canyon Only by the current journalistic standards. And the only times I see him as great is the still very occasional times he puts the interviewee into their place by immediately pointing out their bullshit and quoting their own words back if the guest attempts a flip-flop.
I can't believe I missed it the first time around. Watching them geek over D&D brings joy to my heart! I now want to go to NYC to play with Stephen and Anderson. PS: My characters were elvish too.
OK now there has to be a D&D episode where Anderson Cooper, Joe Manganiello, Will Wheaton, Vin Diesel, and Stephen Colbert all play D&D live. That would have to be the whole episode and it would be awesome!
When he said “we just show out about 99% of the people in here” 😂 I love whenever I discover that another celebrity loves D and D. If they’re really serious about playing, they should look into going on Critical Role.
I feel sorta sad but still amused because I haven't played dnd yet, and know basically nothing; it doesn't stop me from seeing my favorite late show host nerd out.
They either need to play a game of DnD together or atleast spend an hour or 2 just talking about their DnD experiences. Im sad that the only DnD we've seen Stephen in was the red nose day video, really really wish we had more
Awww, that intro cleared some stuff up. Been on a Colbert/ cooper RUclips binge & wondered why they were always so distant on the intros.....now I know.
Remember when he had that Republican Town Hall and asked Ted Cruz how much he loved his daughter and Marco Rubio about his favourite kind of music. Great job, Anderson Cooper.
I'm wondering if this video intersects with the Anderson Hugging video. Does it? (I'm probably not going to watch it. This one was really funny though.)
Of course he's an elf. He never ages.
_blood of virgins_
And he's so damn hot.
Anderson is a lying ASSHOLE ! Works for Fake News CNN
+just looking for truth everyone needs to make a living. not everyone can be so selective about their careers
+Fate Kyougo make a living?!? He's a Vanderbilt!
Stephen has a really high Charisma stat. Love his interviews.
He must have rolled three sixes
+Willfilms1 don't they use 20 sided dice?
When you create a character you roll for their stats with a 6 sided dice. - possibly the nerdiest piece of information I know
+kronicOverseer some people opt to use 3 D6s over s D20, perhaps throwing in a 4th D6 if they want to raise the stakes once or twice in a gsme.
+eliza washington thank u
4:28 He stays so rested because elves only need to trance 4 hours a day to receive the same rest other races need 8 hours for! Come on, Stephen, get it together!
Elf's should always be on guard duty during short rests
Lol
This comment wins
You get a d12 inspiration dice, sir!
that's a 5e thing. Stephen is old school.
how can someone look old and young at the same time?
vitamin D
Mmm ...an Elf?
to old people, he's young; to young people, he's old
Elves, man. Keep up.
For an Elves is normal to look old and young at the same time
"The shut-in at home is very excited right now"
I feel personally called out
Shit me too
Well
I thought the call was for me for sure!
That was a sweet D&D bro down.
I adore Anderson's giggling! So adorable
multiBurnfire I know! He is such a cute giggler!
I am 100% convinced that the "bro hug" was invented to keep the arms as a barrier separating the guys so that their junk wouldn't touch.
It is. Nudists started it, called it the A frame hug so guys wouldn't accidentally sword fight.😀
Big brain
Really ya think!
@@aaronhumphrey2009 damn... TIL
💯
"The shut-in at home is really excited." - I legitimately was like OMG SEMPAI NOTICED ME!
I had the geek giggles in the first three minutes of this video.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one. :D
Hihi me to!
And cringes for me because Mr Cooper came off as having very shallow experience with D&D compared to Stephen
I have never loved Anderson Cooper more than I do at this moment.
You should listen to his last 2 interviews on Howard Stern Show if you haven't already. AC's an American treasure.
Stephen and Anderson need to do a blanket fort skit together, they're just so cute.
i doubt the world could handle it
It doesn't matter what kind of nerd you are, you are happy to see other nerds nerd out.
I want a full episode of Stephen just D&D nerding out with other people!
ruclips.net/video/3658C2y4LlA/видео.html
and now two of those exist, on the critical role channel
@@Danarcis I like the one where he teams up with the Nott, Yasha and Beau from the Mighty Nein to get back his dignity.
This was such an awesome interview. ☺️ It was like a conversation between old friends.
If you meet a fellow D&D player, you instantly connect
mmmpathy we bond over Tabletop RPGs like we're long lost relatives meeting for the first time, but in our case the conversations we have bonding together won't calm down, and will even rev up when we play a campaign.
I always love to hear Anderson Cooper laugh.
They're so nerdy together! I love it!
The Legolas of news.

Somebody needs to get Anderson Cooper on Critical Role
We need Stephen Colbert as well.
@@williamwall3403 well you got your wish..... kind of
Yeah, I'm necro-posting to this dank comment. Get over it. This happened. Did you see it?
Yaaaasss!!!!
@@jelliefishr2336 well the wish got upgraded years later
this interview is just so good, two fantastic humans and hosts/interviewers with fantastic chemistry. And D&D.
So who else has always had a crush on Anderson Cooper?
I'm from Australia and didn't know who he was until he was on the Kathy Griffin show, and damn........he's adorable. I can't help but smile when he laughs.
🙋🏻
Since forever.
Absolutely
I'm a straight male and I would totally blow him and talk about our future together while cuddling. No homo
2:20 Steven makes a hand gesture. You can tell he innocently made a "rolling of the dice" motion while others saw something a bit more hanky panky.
I love that Anderson Cooper is like legitimately impressed when Colbert says he met Gary Gygax.
It's incredible to see how great of an interviewer stephen is. Up to 2:00 you could see that cooper didn't have much to add, do stephen talked for most of the time. But he knew with kevin smith to stop talking. Both interviews not at all awkward, but conducted in different ways
I've gotten over people admitting that they played D&D like it's a secret. When we were kids you hid that stuff but honestly little makes a celebrity seem more sexy and down-to-earth than knowing what a 20-sided die is.
I now have the distinct desire to draw Anderson Cooper as an elf.
And Stephen Colbert as his hobbit sidekick.
Can we please have a livestream or something of Stephen, Anderson, Jon Stewart, and Felicia Day playing D&D, with Vin Diesel as the Dungeon Master???
I would have Stephen as the DM
Add Wil Wheaton, Ta-Nehisi Coates and Dame Judi Dench. They also play D&D.
Samuel Irvin I don't think Vin Diesel is a good choice for DM. He is pretty awkward.
what about terry crews tho
there is only one dm for this crazy and you know it's Mercer
“Elves have extra dexterity” I love how legit Colbert is. Cooper played one game of DND one time and is trying to get to Colbert’s level. This dude is a level 100 dungeon master
Cooper is such a dork lmao like he giggles like a school girl lol it's hilarious!
I LOVE how Colbert knows so much about Tolkien. Seriously though, don't bother asking Elves for advice, it's fairly pointless.
Except in that you can develop insight into the nature of your aiming by asking them those questions.
pointless? I see what you did there.
We need a D&D session with Stephen, Anderson Cooper, Joe Manganiello, Patton Oswalt & Vin Diesel.
For those wondering:
Stephen played a D&D session (a one-shot) with Critical Role's Matthew Mercer, a professional voice actor for Red Nose Day. It's fantastic and gives a great example of Dungeons and Dragons.
This...they're talking to me...!
Yeah I stopped jerking off to listen too
+Boredness your profile pic is the best! :)
Omg Anderson Cooper is an ELF! Why have I never seen it before? My 2nd ed AD&D half-elvish bard is in love.
Nerdgasm.
half elf bard? Pffft.... hipster! ;-P
So, soooo hip! ;)
+Amanda Lee Dube My BFF plays a half elf: an ambitious bereaucrat named Lt. Intjyrn (pronounced "intern").
My dead human paladin is cheering from heaven (no grave since his body got destroyed, since he was within the blast radius when the demon he killed exploded)
HALF ELF BARDS REPRESENT!!!
(though 1st Edition Bards were just nutso OP, fighter HP, then thief skills, THEN Druid spells? no wonder nerfed in 2nd edition!)
I wonder if he's a Critter
That would be great
We're on air Anderson, how do you wanna do this?
Well, you know what they say... all risk
The first thought that came to mind
Lol. I was wondering how many comments I would get to read before seeing a Critter.
Yours is only the second comment
I want a party with Cooper, Colbert, Mangienello and Crewes DMed by Mercer. On Critical Role.
Hmmmm....Stephen Colbert on TableTop?
Stephen Colbert as a guest PC on Critical Role?
+Amanda Lee Dube this. or get Ashley Johnson on Colbert
This must happen. Preferably Critical Role. I'd take Anderson too.
Too much improv skill in one room. The banter would be unimaginable
Yes to all of the above!
The next celebrity for Matt Mercer to DM on an adventure!
Yes!
Please!
As the shut-in at home, I think I just etched the bottom surface of my desk. Both man-crushes do D&D, and one met the God-King himself? Elminster's beard!
Yes! Anderson Cooper and Stephen Colbert on the same stage! This is early Christmas!
Anderson Cooper, Neil DeGrass Tyson, and Tom Hanks. Best F'ing talk show guests ever!!!!
Honestly I think it's awesome that all of these celebs are admitting to being huge into DnD; it really makes the hobby look better than it used to look a decade before.
Hey now! I am a grandmother who plays D&D! I am a druidic elf.
But Anderson pulls off elf much more than me.
3:05 that sassy snap!! Aw Anderson!!
I don't always agree with Coopz, nor some of his choices in reporting etc. But I still like who he seems to be as a person, or who he presents himself as. Seems like a really pleasant dude to be around with a big heart. Internet; make of that as you will lol.

Not a big deal, and i'm brazilian.
Thing is, our portuguese actually differs quite a lot from the original Portugal one, so some people believe we should call Brazilian. It's pretty much already PT-BR.
And again: Not a big deal.

I love Anderson's geek-moment at 1:51
my favourite stephen is fanboy!stephen. I love this clip
Was this before or after Stephen called him the "Legolas of cable news"?
One of the best Interviews Stephen has done!
If Anderson would just step up his game and do more hard journalism instead of the everyone has a valid opinion approach he could go down as one of the all time greats.
If he just quit journalism to focus on D&D, he could make it all the way to live streams ;-P
Of all the journalists on the major news networks, Cooper does the "hardest" journalism. There's no escaping the valid opinion approach during the election news cycle anyway, otherwise you wouldn't exactly be a journalist.
He's already an all time great bro
Hat in Grand Canyon Only by the current journalistic standards. And the only times I see him as great is the still very occasional times he puts the interviewee into their place by immediately pointing out their bullshit and quoting their own words back if the guest attempts a flip-flop.
Trakker he's had some great moments.

I can't believe I missed it the first time around. Watching them geek over D&D brings joy to my heart! I now want to go to NYC to play with Stephen and Anderson.

can't you guys just have a pod cast all ready ... it's so enjoyable to see the two of you interact
Anderson Cooper is the first man I've ever seen with grey hair that I can say is cute, he has a very distictive unique look.
"cause eleves have extra dexterity" now i love colbert even more
Ac laughs n giggles 😍 he is just like a baby ❤️
Much more respect for these two men now lol.
Roll for initiative!
Love the LOTR quote!
I love Anderson Cooper because he seems like such a genuine person.
He’s been taking care of his mother for years... he’s seen stuff that would throw most of us...
There are no words to describe the awesomeness of Anderson Cooper.
2:45 that a distinctly "nerd" giggle wow
Goddammit.... I can't deal with this. Two of the sexiest men on television are bro hugging and I'm not there. What is life??????
Watching these 2 geek out over D&D was good for my soul.
When he said “we just show out about 99% of the people in here” 😂 I love whenever I discover that another celebrity loves D and D. If they’re really serious about playing, they should look into going on Critical Role.
Coopers nerd laugh when Colbert quoted the elves is priceless
The Olympic coverage in Brazil, is like American coverage: Nation-Centric. Nothing unusual at all.
These two are hilarious together..... "I respect all their opinions" "No you don't!"
I'm not a fan of Anderson cooper but this talk was very good. Very impromptu and natural.
Violent Femmes as the background music? Love it!
6:50 Now you know how the rest of the world feels watching (that channel that must not be named)'s coverage.
they don't watch America, they watch the best
it just so happens the two are synonymous
SassyPaddy NBC
dothedeed
NBC's alright
I see what you did there. Quite clever
NBC = Nothing But Clinton
CNN = Clinton News Network
Of all talks, this is probably the best one. I was smiling and laughing through the whole video xD
Stephen: I'm not afraid to hug a man fully
Anderson: yes please
Stephen's "No, you don't!" was the best! lol
HE'S 49?!
AHHHHHHHHH
2022 and I'm suddenly on a Stephen Colbert nerdy-interview binge.
Anderson Cooper is AMAZING
I feel sorta sad but still amused because I haven't played dnd yet, and know basically nothing; it doesn't stop me from seeing my favorite late show host nerd out.
Colbert said "I met Gary Gygax". Cooper responds "Really?".
The crowd's silence said "Who?". Best moment.
Brazil speaks Portuguese indeed... Obrigado is thank you
That was an awesome interview. Stephen went full on “nerd” it was glorious
I'm the excited shut in they're talking about
Best interview
Anderson Cooper has to make a guest appearance on Critical Role.
if there were ever a real Elf walking around... it would be Anderson...
his giggle is infectious... :)
They either need to play a game of DnD together or atleast spend an hour or 2 just talking about their DnD experiences.
Im sad that the only DnD we've seen Stephen in was the red nose day video, really really wish we had more
Tark the Fark Matt Merced DMing Stephen and Anderson.
Came for the DnD talk, but @4:13 I had to LoL. Exactly.
Anyone else jealous that Stephen got to meet Gary Gygax?
It would be like meeting God. Or Neil Gaiman.
I like how vulnerable and open Anderson is - although i respect is profession and craft. Great to see a new side to him.
Critical role invite these two. Omg
Awww, that intro cleared some stuff up. Been on a Colbert/ cooper RUclips binge & wondered why they were always so distant on the intros.....now I know.
Remember when he had that Republican Town Hall and asked Ted Cruz how much he loved his daughter and Marco Rubio about his favourite kind of music. Great job, Anderson Cooper.
No point in interviewing conservatives above their IQ level.
49 and GODDAMN Anderson still looks FRESH!!
Welcome to the Nerd Zone!!!
I love how they just decided to full on nerd out for this show 😆 I love these grown ups
I'm wondering if this video intersects with the Anderson Hugging video. Does it? (I'm probably not going to watch it. This one was really funny though.)
ah, thanks
Watch all Anderson Cooper videos.
Someone MUST make this DnD game happen... Anderson Cooper, Felicia Day, Vin Diesel, Will Wheaton and Colbert as the DM?
Make Matt Mercer Dm and it will be gold
Three minutes talking about brohugs and elves. Only on the late show.
