      Colbert seems like a pretty worldly guy, I bet he could have a fine conversation with Waltz if they had it in a different setting. Maybe an hour or so, in a couple of big chairs with just a camera and no audience. Late Night talk shows don't really lend themselves to good conversation, keeping the conversation artificially light, having to shuffle the guests out in five to ten minutes, and whatnot.

    It was really cool to see how Colbert adapts to guests' comfort, because he opened with the regular Hollywood, phony late night shite, but whenever it was clear that Waltz wasn't really into that phoniness Colbert like just switched into a more calm, and personal style of interview using shared life experiences to bond over, whilst also looking for jokes to make.

      Yes, Waltz is an intellectual and very sophisticated individual and not all interviewers know how to handle that.
      But Colbert who, don't be fooled by the levity and jokes, is an intellectual himself, knew how to adapt to the situation and how to have a good, broad and intelligent conversation with Waltz.

    I thought colbert did an excellent interview here. It was def a case of the interviewee being uncomfortable to start but warming up completely by the end. Its actually quite amazing to see how well Colbert could relate the questions to Waltz. Colbert's niche is defintely his ability to use actual knowledge in a way that interests the guest. Fallon is fun but there is no way he can talk about religion, philosophy, or world culture with a movie star.

    I get the impression that Waltz is basically just tired of all the fake shit that pervades modern culture, and doesn't bother to give it or people's boring expectations the time of day, let alone respect. He has a certain humorous nihilism to his sensibility that I really like. You don't see it too often. It throws people, especially on mainstream American TV, and RUclips viewers, it seems. People don't expect blunt humour and society-defying comments, but people with them tend to be the most interesting and long-lasting in the meme of society. David Bowie was like this a lot in many of his interviews, especially in the 90s. He gave off a sense of being slightly frustrated at being one step ahead, or one step *liberated* beyond everybody else.

    the biggest difference I noticed is the sense of humor. at least with my relatives, it is incredibly dry, and sometimes more morbid than what would be acceptable to an American audience.
    Different doesn't mean that they are uncomfortable or acting superior or performing or being "real". this looks like an honest interaction between two intelligent and friendly men who were raised in incredibly different cultures.

I think many hosts seems to really admire him, why not, such a terrific actor, brilliant, but they also seem a bit in awe of him. That does not often happen in late night TV. It reminds me of interviews with Richard Harris and Peter O'Toole, who were renown raconteurs. Only a little twistier.

    A wonderful article I found:
    Schmäh: A lesson in Austrian humour
    The word Schmäh (pronounced 'shmay') has many meanings. It can denote a joke, a trick or a lie, but also regional or personal charm, sense of humour and wit.
    Schmäh is a good-natured yet snide kind of banter with a subversive historical background. It has its roots below stairs, originating from servants' mockery of the high-strung, pseudo-courtly lifestyle of their burgeois masters. Part melancholy, part comedy, it often mixes gallantry with persiflage, flattery with ridicule.
    Every region and every individual in Austria has a unique type of Schmäh. It is sometimes mistaken for moodiness or impertinence, but it has always been a friendly, ironic sort of naughtiness, with very simple rules of engagement. Roll with the punches and enjoy a harmless - if slightly anarchic - battle of the wits.
