    That first man obviously really needed some kindness, even if it's just a beer from a stranger, Stephen clearly boosted that guy which is awesome....until he made him feel like he needed to run away.

      this one is more or less a copy of conan.. along time ago conan got in full makeup and did a public service thing with random people to analize "late night with conan" .. they were watching it with conan and giving him there personal opinion .. it was amazing because at the end of the video they showed conan becoming the person that was siting next to them.. that was the little bit of brilliant that makes conan great

    That was awesome. I'm impressed by his singing and the fact that he had a 24 oz Bud under his desk.

    Would love to see Stephen Colbert be the court officer in Traffic Court and crack jokes to break the stiff feeling and air in that room!
