“You’re into DnD”
*crowd cheers
*stephen continues DnD talk
Crowd: “wait... they’re actually gonna talk about this...”
"I take my woo back"
@@MyNameIsBucket I personally think it's refreshing as fuck for a talkshow host to talk about something they're genuinely into with their guest (who's also into said thing)
Haha so true, my reaction was the same! Are they really going to talk about this? Ok volume up! full focus on the edge of my chair LETS GOOOO!!! =D
Imagine talking about something other than politics... the crowd was speechless
Lol, this is brilliant!
I can't BELIEVE my dude picked up a dice and casually rolled a nat 20. The audience did not pay that the respect it deserved.
Joe has been rolling natty 20s in life for a while now. Looks like that and married to Sofia Vergara, what is that if not a 20!
My thoughts exactly
I was like bruh wtf no cheers
As much as I love this comment, I’m not gonna like, because your comment is the mark of the beast 🤘
I don't mean to be a c@nt but "dice" is plural.
98% of the audience was lost the whole time, meanwhile my respect level for these two men continued to grow for 9 minutes and 15 seconds
That's not the only thing that continued to grow for nine minutes ; D
@@suelamphere8040 Well damn Sue, just damn lmao
Take note, Stephen was playing back in college, which for him would've been early 80's. Which means pre-2nd ed, which means fucking hit tables.
@@romxxii In the Red Nose Day session he played with Matt Mercer he said he bought the Player's Handbook when it fucking released, so that's a true nerd right there. Today we only hear legends of these times and the Satanic Panic.
@@romxxii yea and no freaking death saves you fall to zero HP you are dead
“Somewhere along the line, there was a dragon that did some fooling around with a human”
Damn bards.
Definitely was a bard.
Why doesn't this have more likes. wth
I blame Donkey from the Shrek movies
@@Issblodh Well he is a bard basically.
-Musically talented
-Travels around with an orge barbarian companion
-Fucked the Dragon
Of course it was a bard, " I roll to seduce it...nat 20!"
90% of that audience didn't understand a fricking thing and I love it :D
100% of thanks to critical role, I understood everything!
High time for something for Nerds :)
90% of everyone watching this didn’t understand a fricking thing, including me, but it was still fun to watch :D
Finally....Vindication!! :D
There all middle age women that’s why 😂😂
"This might alienate some audience members here...but I don't care."
Stephen is the best.

No he is not, he is a religious bigot.
He’s fun, smart, civilised and caustic. He plays D&D and knows Lovecraft. He’s a great host and a brilliant conedin and yes is religious too and guess what? Youre a trivial bore
@@KristerAndersson-nc8zo religious bigot playing dnd? yeah right
Somehow I also doubt that since they Think it is devilworship. Furthermore he threatened Ricky Gervais with hell when he was on his show.
Joe kinda has this look on his face, “Did we just become best friends?”
I really hope they got to play in LA.
YEP!
Do you want to go and play D&D in the garage?
YEP!
I love how quiet the audience is, this interaction is purely for the host and interviewee...and any other nerd lucky enough to observe; present and accounted for.
The audience is going, "What a bunch of nerds."
@@celebrim1 Ugh, "do another trump joke and validate my worldview some more Steeephen, d&d reinforces negative heteronormative stereotypesss and is toxic, problematic even"
It was purely for the paying DnD customer. He wasn't there plugging a new movie, show, or book; he was there to sell his DnD clothing line. And together they did an awesome job of it, too!
Great interview.
This interview is even better knowing that the character he's talking about, Arkhan, is now officially canon in D&D lore
Stole the freaking hand of vecna will put you there
HE IS?!
@@Dan-qy6zv He appears in the adventure modul Descent into Avernus.
@@arein423 damn. did not know that
Sooo. Does that mean critical role is just canon in D&D lore too?
Dude just rolled a Crit for his Death Save on live TV
he also....cannon...has the hand of Vecna and it's powers. He rolled and won and the power is his. I bet he's going to be a boss in the Mighty Nein season.
You can hear Wheaton cry out to the injustice of it.
Hohoho this guy thinks it's live
@@gammelhund lol right and they even do a full rehearsal of what they're gonna say before they record, much like a wedding
Now that's good television!
Hearing this man speak about his dragonborn Oathbreaker paladin who worships Tiamat made me rock hard.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
You mean what he was trained to say to sound relatable? :)
GruppeSechs Nah we was a guest on this twitch show called critical role and he played that character, which was a leveled up version of a character he played in his home games
@@geraldofbolivia3968 Yeah, I went and looked it up later, haha
@@Lrbearclaw I haven't gotten to Arkhan in critical role yet, but i'm pretty sure his backstory gives justification for his worship of Tiamat.
The silence at that 20 roll was painful. It deserved the whole "OOHHHHH" Crowd reaction
It hurts that not even one person in that audience stood up, slapped their hands to their cheeks, and yelled, “OH SHIT!”
@@avivacrichton6922 They could've and it just gets edited out. Shows with audiences tend to do that. But I doubt anyone did anyway.
"You may be sexier than I am, but I am nerdier than you are."
Don't forget, Stephen was once voted sexiest man in America.
And... Was also once voted amongst the 50 sexier **women** of America
I remember that photo. That woman looked exactly like how he would had he been a woman all along. The resemblance was truly uncanny!
By a collection of women that went on to be the 2016 and 2020 democratic voting base. Good judges of character there I tell you.
I want this on a T-shirt.
No one is nerdier than the oathbringer paladin who chopped off his own arm so steal the hand of Veccna... live.... as a guest in the most popular DnD production ever released... and got away with it.
I love that Stephen just talked D&D on late night TV for ~10 mins.
Peanut Turner more like 8
Since Stranger Things it´s become oddly acceptable.
Haha best segment ever! Mmmm dnd
@@kenkubard thank god for matt mercer
i know right!? what age are we living in!????
''A Paladin is a lawful good''
Stephen is even more OG than Joe, that's all the way back to 1st Edition. Love these two.
I mean Paladins were hard-locked LG until 3.5e. Shifting alignments would break the Paladin Oath as Joe did, but until you regained your god's favor or jumped into an anti-paladin Prestige Class you were basically classless.
They flirted with some others (not just evils, some for neutrals too though they were in Dragon if I recall).
@@ghandimauler they did, all 8 alignments got a paladin class in first ed, but the rules were extremely hard to track down. The Lawful evil one was an assasin iirc called an arikian (spelling is probably wrong). I had a photocopy of the rules a very long time ago, but I cannot recall where or how I got them
Found them, they are in issue 106 of dragon magazine, A plethora of paladins for 1st ed D&D
It feels like finally a show host dropped his seriousness and started to talk about what he loves the most. Never seen anyone whos in a serious position/job being that free and open about things like that
@@paulgauthier7033 I miss Craig T_T
Fuuuuuck I miss Craig too. But not what I came here to say…Stephen is like this when he talks about Tolkien or Sondheim as well
(Manganiello rolls a twenty)
Matt Mercer: “How do you want to do this?”
needs more upvotes but heck yeah
noyce
N Slater the D&D gods approve
Gygax nods his head and smiles
I imagine him just suddenly popping out from behind the couch.
The fact that the audience didnt immediately clap when he rolled 20 shows me they were clapping and not knowing what was going on the whole time
Hah
Candy Taco Moustache Cat Crit fail on perception
To be fair, they can't actually see that he rolled a 20.
@@Jackaroo. Colbert literally says it the moment it happens and the audience still doesn't even react straightaway to him saying "Twenty...damn!". So even after they did know, they still took their time to react.
@@andrewsparkes8829 Because it wasn't a proven crit roll. not only that but who really cares. They celebrated because they knew it was a big deal for those actors, but to the average person, it is not a big deal.
The fact that I needed to explain this to you is the exact reason why people like you got alienated by the average person.
@@Kugrox Um...you're agreeing with me, dude... The whole point is the audience only started reacting after they had processed that Joe/Stephen were reacting excitedly to it themselves, rather than to the actual announcement of it being a 20. So yeah, I didn't need anything explaining: You just restated my own comment in different words. But congratulations on your ego of thinking your own comment was more necessary than it was.
One of the best “Nerd interviews” ever. The awkward silence of the crowd was hilarious. 😂
There's also the one where James Franco tried to out-nerd Stephen and hilariously failed.
Stephen's face when Joe calls out Vin Diesel lololol
The even better part is that as of now, Matt Mercer has DM'd for Stephen, Joe and Vin Diesel, and all three games are recorded on RUclips for posterity.
To be fair to Vin, outside of that one shot he did with CritRole to promote his shitty fantasy movie, I think he hasn't really played since he was a kid. In fact I'm surprised he managed to get in touch with Matt Mercer and company to do that one-shot, since Vin seems more like the type to hang out with Tyrese than he is to hang out with Big Show or Taran Killam, let alone a bunch of nerdy voice actors who stream themselves playing Dungeons and Dragons.
@@romxxii You do know Vin Diesel did the Foreword for DND's 30th anniversary, right?
He had a campaign running between him, COlm Feore, Karl Urban, and Judy Dench during the filming of Chronicles of Riddick.
Dench attributes her playing D&D with her grandkids to Diesel teaching her lol
@@EonofAeon no, I didn't know that. The one time I've seen him play D&D as an adult was during the Geek and Sundry special to promote his movie based on his D&D character.
well, he doesn't have to play with famous people
This is the nerdiest interview ever and it's glorious
Stephen did one with Anderson Cooper that went similarly.
This is my absolute favorite segment, apart from when Stephen did the pre-show drop-mic on Middle Earth knowledge.
@@claytonmyers9739 Yeah but Anderson Cooper kinda sucks.
I
Which is hilarious because Joe is such a macho man.
I think I just witnessed two people become best friends
two
maxim menage darn, I usually don’t do that. Thx for the catch
Hunter 'Man Of' Steele d&d is magical like that lol
Proof that he was a big nerd was that he auditioned for Peter Parker in the first Spider-man movie, but later got cast as Flash THompson
After Arkhan attaches the hand of vecna
Vox machina: you're our friend, we don't want to fight you!
Arkhan: I wouldn't want to fight me neither
Holy shit I did not know that was him
He looks a little too big to play Parker..
3:51 I love how Joe suddenly realizes that Stephen is the real D&D deal and immediately considers him an asset for his gaming dungeon. White Plume Mountain with a bunch of Hollywood wisecrackers? Well, that would be a show unto itself.
That would be SO sick to watch all of these high-top hollywood actors play. I would watch the stream haha
My man Stephen pulling the dice out and challenging Sophia Vergara's husband to a death save is the most epic moment of nerd swag ever caught on tape. And the dude CRITTED.
*Joe Manganiello
His name is Joe Manganiello not Sophia Vergara's husband. Literally is in the title of the video and description. Now don't get me wrong I have no idea who he is, where as I do know who Sophia Vergara is but still imo a bit disrespectful to call him someone's husband instead of by his actual name.
@@LC_JSE who?
@@LC_JSE Except that that is exactly how women are referred to in so many parts of life. It's certainly not going to hurt Joe being referred to as Sofia Vergara's husband, right? ;-)
@@ChrisColeChicago so because it's disrespectful to women, that must mean men deserve it? Shitty logic my guy. It's disrespectful regardless of who it's done to. Yes, it shouldn't be done to women and we should be bringing attention to it, but not by doing it to other people
@@stormrider7235 It was for comedic padding. The longer the sentence and more unorthodox it is the farther you can throw someone when you pull the rug under them with a punchline. Or maybe it's just that old school way of being surprised for your friends where you refer to them by other titles other than their name. "You kissed her? My classmate just fucking GRADUATED." I don't know bruv
Matthew Mercer once said his dream guest on Critical Role would be Stephen Colbert...did we just get closer to our boy fulfilling his dream?
ReWrite Matt Mercer as in Hit voice actor?
@@stevangonzalez5908 Yes, he's the DM for a group of fellow voice actors. They stream every thursday at 7pm on twitch and youtube. You should really check it out, it's amazing.
Beware, though, it is a deep deep rabbit hole, friend.
Those 500+ hours have been the best of my life.
Is it thursday yet?
D&D with a bunch of hollywood actors and writers...those campaigns must be SICK
Gabriel Pino you should watch critical role on RUclips.
@@Awesome_Atlantean ill check it out!
@@andrew1983 If the GoT writers wrote a D&D campaign it would be amazing for the first half, then slowly descend into a complete shit show.
@@slartybartfast4213 so a normal game then? Yet to have people get passed mid game and no mental, lol
Not just Hollywood actors but WWE Legend Big Show is involved in that D&D crew.
The stormbringer moment was amazing
We still need Stephen Colbert to guest on CelbriDND
They just need to change the Oneshot at Joes House into a Celebrity D&D, with Stephen Colbert, Terry Crews who is now also into it, Big Show, Deborah Ann Woll, Joe of course and Matt Mercer as DM..
Or Critical Role... please
I really need him in Campaign two! Hes such a nerd!
Oh god no please
Please no... celbriD&D is terrible. I rather see Cobert as a reoccurring guest on Critical Role.
Yo Critters, we are getting closer and closer to a Colbert guest star on Critical Role
Let's make it happen, critters assemble!
I can't wait to hear the words "Ok Stephen, how do you wanna do this?".
Matt.
Yes!!! Make it happen! Him and Mark Hamill
This video is already showcasing Travis Willingham being interviewed by Colbert so we're already there, such a shame he doesn't have longer hair more often.
"I hear you are a fan of the Dungeons and Dragons. Is this true?"
Joe: *Literally sitting there with a Death Saves jacket on*
He owns the company
In fairness colbert comes from a time before death saves were a thing in d&d
@@lowleypeasentmr.l8836 I’m pretty sure that part was scripted for the marketing. I’m pretty convinced that around 95% of the conversation went off script tough XD
As a nerd, I love it how Colbert is just spot on with his fantasy knowledge
MRTN13 like he said, you don't come into his house and just drop Tiamat lol
Stephen: maybe we can play..
Matthew Mercer steps in: *hold my GM screen*
I think Mercer refers to himself as a Dungeon Master (DM) instead of Game Master but yeah.
That was magic when him and Stephen solo... you can just see the amazement and joy in Stephen's eyes the entire time. I really hope they can bring him back for more one shots or as a guest on Critical Role.
I had heard of, but never seen anyone play D&D before watching that red nose game. Because of that 1 hour one shot I now consider myself a Critter and I play in two campaigns...what a life changing RUclips video.
@@joelg598 Matt Mercer is magical, but the majesty of Critical Role is as much the excellent players as it is the DM, and just the friendship that shines through, that tells you what is possible when you play this game.
@@Saldio I really love CR, but I wouldn't call them excellent players. Video after Video I get so see that they only know half of their character skills.
They were still in their 40's or 50's episode of the second campaign when asking "what does that do" about skills that were used dozen of times before, like 'Bless of the trickster' or 'Bless'
They always forget to add some of their feats when dealing damage. Sam still asks in a 70's episode after having advantage on an attack, if he get's his sneak attack. And that's a core feature of his class....
I get that they only play once a week, and it's easier for me to recall their skills as I'm watching them more than once a week to get up to the current episode, but still, there things they really should know by now.
(And I myself only played like 3-4 times and DMed 1 4h game, so I don't have the biggest knowledge of DnD)
But what they are, are excellent actors and they play their roles really well, 98% of the time, which is REALLY good. But rule- and skill-wise, they lack a lot.
im used to crowds roaring with jubilation with a 20 roll, this crowd didnt even know to clap till Stephen chimed in xD
I had the biggest smile on my face watching this, it was really wholesome seeing both of them enjoy a conversation about D&D. When Joe realized that Stephen really new what he was talking about you could feel the connection. It’s nice to see such popular people being nerds in front of a whole lot of people.
This is the best thing in the world. Get Stephen into Critical Role!
Edric Chan 😭🙏
Yes please!!
We are not worthy
Edric Chan Halfing Bard or we riot
I dunno...have you seen the pic of him as the paladin with the flaming sword?
The thought that 90% of the audience is scratching their heads at this interview pleases my inner geek greatly.
You mean your inner nerd. Don't mix up geeks and nerds.
Drive Fast
I think this interview was pretty geek and sundry
D&D is for geeks and nerds, astrophysics is for nerds only.
Yeeesss, we were all in a satanic cult! And this was before video games!
Hahaha yeah. as a gamer since i was like 6 i love this interview. Mostly because the audience is just looking around wondering how they got that chandelier up, waiting for the "nerd" talk to end.
Absolutely loved this, they really were passionate about this and you can watch videos of both of them playing D&D, the fact Stephen even went a bit like "Screw the audience for a minute, I just need to know more about his D&D campaigns" says a lot!
Love how casually Joe says “4d6”
Steven Colbert should guest star on Critical Role, that would be awesome.
Yes!
Please!!!
Joe would be better, he's like Travis' brother or rival.
@Charlie Extra: Joe HAS starred on critical role. He performed an act so huge he possibly situated his character as a future villain of the world.
oh he did?! cool but I haven't seen that one. thanks.
Stephen Colbert, you need to take a part in a session with Critical Role! They have already expressed that they would love to have you!
Without Laura and Travis thouh? give them a year to come back then do it XD
Critters unite!
Rises both hands with 9 finger out... :P
Did they not get found on the live show?
It doesn’t quite mean that they will be back since Matt can RP them however it is always good to hope for the best.
LOL. Love this interview. Stephen surprised the eff out of Joe with his knowledge of D&D. if the producers didnt stop him they would of still been there and brought out the game and played D&D hours later
His D&D dungeon in his wine cellar is the golden ticket in Hollywood. The minds that hang out there and nerd out are running the industry.
Colbert doesn't hide how much of a nerd he is. I get the feeling his producers were like, "Hey we can get the guy from true blood that's married to Sofia. Wanna interview him about the shows he's done?"
Meanwhile Colbert's just thinking, "SWEET. I get to talk D&D!"
I bet he thinks the same thing whenever he may have the chance to bring of LotR
When Timothy Chalamet came on, he basically redirected the entire interview to talk about Dune, which no one is even promoting yet and doesn't come out until next year.
You know mostly everything you see on tv is scripted right? He has a writers room behind him and his guests are given talking points and keywords.
To be honest I don't think, that he would think Sweet... I think he would think: FINALLY!!!
@@ThePeacePlant 20+ year dnd player chiming in here. It's nerdy as all hell, but who cares. Doesn't change that you're a man/woman/etc that you play dnd, but it does make a you a nerd, but again there isn't anything wrong with that.
News flash, there was never anything wrong with being a nerd ever, they were just convenient scapegoats for pop culture to make fun of.
I admit, I know nothing about D&D... and yet, this is the most amazing goddamn thing ever. I genuinely love this, Stephen and Joe nerding out on national television is the greatest thing to ever be put on TV. I could watch them nerd out for hours and be insanely happy, even without knowing a single thing they're talking about!
Lee GaryB if you want to change that, go to the order of the stick webcomic
Watch Critical Role on RUclips. You might be surprised 😉
Lee GaryB go on RUclips and search critical role you're welcome
Oh it's your comment that Joe quoted! I just came to the comment section looking for you. 😄
Get thee to a PHB! :)
"You may be sexier than I am but I'm nerdier than you are."
I GOT DIZZY, I was laughing so hard
The guy is a living legend in D&D, (spoilers- for Vox Machina -spoilers) when a guest on Critical Role (Legend of Vox Machina is based off their D&D game), he stole the Hand of Vecna from the group while they were morning a fallen companion and escaped with it. It was one of the most bad ass moment I've ever seen in D&D.
When I grow up, I want to be Joe Manganiello.
And I'm 40.
Don't give up hope, you will get there.
You're in luck! Joe is currently 44 (in 2020).
I'm curious as to why your handle isn't "Commodore64life"
no kiddin'. the man is married to Sofia Vergara and he plays D&D in his basement in LA with celebrities in the show business whenever he wants. He's a frickin' legend. he's my hero.
Same, but I’m 48. Also, I really want to like your comment but it currently sits at 666 likes (for a comment on a video about D&D) and it just seems wrong to mess with that.
Manganiello's face as he realized Colbert was asking if he could join his table. The best.
S: "I'm coming out for the Emmys. Are you going to be out there at the end of September? Maybe we could play?"
J: "Are you kidding?"
S: "Alright. Let's do it."
I'm so glad that Joe and Stephen are so genuinely passionate about D&D (not just being trendy). It gives me hope that I can eventually get enough people truly interested in setting up a campaign. haha
Is this the first Nat20 on network TV?
😯
Pics or it didn't happen.
it just happened.
I would like this, but the thumbs up are at 666 and I can't mess it up.
700th like :>
This is so gloriously nerd and cool which I never thought would be said of the same people before. The 90s me would never have believed me if I explained what type of thing would be happening in this year
Are you kidding? The 80s me would never have believed this (hell, members of my family TO THIS DAY STILL think "Dungeons and Dragons" is an instrument of Satan himself! 9_9).
Amen-Ra brother, were on the same boat
I started playing when I got to uni (2013) but people in my area still thought DnD was for weird nerds. I took it a step further with LARP (2017) and my parents legit think I'm worshipping Satan.
Tangeena Islam: Not quite the same thing, but I'm from the Deep South, U.S.A., and Southern Baptists believe so much stuff is connected to Satan (good thing that, unlike Manganiello, I never got into Hard Rock or Metal music; they would have dragged me into the church for an 'anointing' ^_^)
Chup Smith: If it was me, I think it'd be worth it to do a performance piece (making sure a friend got it all on tape), where I incited them to anoint me, then started screaming in my best demon voice, "MORE HOLY WATER, MY ASS ISN'T CLEAN ENOUGH!"
I feel like this is less of an interview more than just a conversation between two nerds backstage
I may not have understood all of the references, but this was too freaking awesome to watch. Kudos to Colbert and Manganiello for staying true to their inner nerd!
Stephen, listen to me. You NEED to go play D&D with the people of Critical Role. You need this, the World needs this!
They can even get ashley in all the episodes no way will they land stephen.
@@bakeryclerk7434 I think pelon's only talking about Steven guest starring, not about him becoming a regular player... the latter is impossible of course, but the former... who knows? Maybe when the Late Show is on hiatus...
He played Arkan in the first campain and he was on the final battle against Vecna
Agreed, tell Marisha to make it happen
"You don't come into my house and drop tiamat and think I'm not gonna drop bahamut at the same time"
The way Manganiello leans back and gives a look when Colbert brings up Bahamut is priceless
@@rudewalrus5636 he leaned back to make room for the massive chub brewing in his pants.
And yet again you can easily see Colbert reading and trying to memorise dnd lore before the interview
@@sanjin8867 You can’t make a nerd lean back by spitting non-sense. You can’t keep up a discussion about DnD with a nerd by faking it. You should try understanding the situation and read body movements sometimes.
@@julfinch what discussion? He just droped few general facts which take 2 mins to google out. Lets see him talk about Lolths betrayal for example
I love their little nerd off. It’s pretty glorious.
These are the Steven Interviews I love, its like when a LoTR actor comes and he just drops everything to talk about the movies and books. You can tell he's just loving it.
Not sure what I like more...... some famous bloke on about DnD or the comment section FULL of critters
have you heard about The Traveller?
Jester's Sketchbook I heard he’s a really cool dude. Saw a pamphlet in Zadash.
A good paladin that broke his oath. How unpaladable.
James Jumper OMG so good
This was puntastic.
bah. paladins that break their oaths. naah you sit in that oath and you weasle your way around it finding every single loop hole.
Killaim what a paladin! 😆
Oathbreaker paladins used to be called Blackguards back in 3e ... something happen in 5e? I'm still playing 4e?
As a guy who played D&D way back in the 80's, I love this. There were so many good times playing with friends and making fun stories, and that's when it wasn't 'cool' to be a nerd, but we all had a great time together. This, and the team from Critical Role really make me smile as I watch and remember those times.
I'm sad it took me 5 years to find the nerdiest conversation to ever grace Stephen Colbert. It's interesting that the audience is completely lost, but the joy rolls on in these two and it's wonderful
Now whoever runs this channel +The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, why don't you let Stephen know that the Cast of Critical Role has been dreaming of getting him on since the start of the show 3 years ago. Joe's been on so you know it's legit. (30,000+ viewers every Thursday on Twitch).
plus 15k on their “simulcast” on youtube !
This will NEVER happen.
Would love to see this happen. BUT he films on Thursdays so it would have to be done during a hiatus.
I want to know more about Joe's game, if they considered the time in Exandria to be canon and if so, what is he doing with the hand of Vecna?
30K on Twitch, and that's not counting RUclips, Alpha, and those that don't watch it live / are catching up.
OMG Stephen have Joe introduce you to Matt Mercer who is one of the best Dungeon Masters around in September when you come out to LA. I hope you get this on tape for all of us D&D fans to see. Make a Critters dream come true. Is it Thursday yet?
I wish I could go back in time and show this video to my high school self back in the days when being 'a nerd meant something' :)
It is so heartening to see D&D and tabletop RPGs gaining popularity thanks to Hollywood personalities like Stephen Colbert and Joe Manganiello. The magic was always there, now it's finally coming out of hiding.
ruclips.net/video/a2R5Mx9Jp6c/видео.html
This has got to be the most alienating interview on mainstream late night TV and it's pretty awesome
The hidden D&D geek in me desperately wants to be in that group.
Same lol.
Me too lol
Why hide it?
I would get a passport at this instant moment and leave my life behind for at least a month just to play with them.. lol
Stephen looked so happy to nerd out with Joe! My college boyfriend introduced me to D&D several years ago. It was pretty fun to learn all the rules and play along with my dorm buddies.
Wasn't he on critical role ?!
Best interview Colbert has ever done. Love it so much.
“I don’t know if Vin Diesel plays...”
Bruh, he played with Matt Mercer and CR, has a movie dedicated to one of his characters and is a renowned DM. He definitely plays 😂
What movie, if I may ask? You have piqued my interest.
linkadorf The Last Witch Hunter
Yeah, that D&Diesel video kinda proves Joe right though. Vin seemed like he was kinda lost the whole time. Especially for an actor, he looked like a fish out of water. He reminds me of the guy that LOVES Lord of the Rings, but calls Gandalf "Ganondorf".
@@PorkYoSelf *shivers* Just the thought of someone comparing Gandalf and Ganondorf hurts my soul, I'm a casual Legend of Zelda fan but not a casual Lotr fan. so ouch
@@linkadorf7006 if I recall correctly Riddic was based on a rogue he played
That's a level 12 host, ladies and gentlemen
Well, that's only because he's multiclassing. Level 12 host, Level 16 nerd, and his wife and kids would have to determine his level of Dad.
You giving him Epic Levels now?
Hmmm, true... maybe it's more like lv 12 nerd, with host being his prestige class?
Fella maxed Charisma and Intelligence
Stephen was literally the perfect talk show host to interview Joe Mananeillo about this.
8:13 when Joe understood that the crowd didn't get it and simply responds with a nonchalant "good roll."
That's not a good roll, that's an a EPIC roll!!
I always come back to this interview. This is wholesome.
Joe didn't name drop Critical Role, this makes me sad.
not going to get away with that on CBS without some money put ahead, especially with it being new media
That's why they're distancing themselves from the brand entirely and doing their own thing on a separate channel soon. Because honestly G&S is pretty bleh in all honesty.....
i have a feeling it was due to some regulation/ad technicality of some sort. i wouldn't be surprised if joe mentioned CR to him off-camera.
ARKHAN THE CRUEL LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!
CR represent!!
Doesn't need to be on critical role to get 20s
It's just buisness.
I cut of my own hand, I heal my self, I cast Teleport, "Sorry its just Businesses".
hi fellow critters!!
I love how Stephen and Joe are ACTUALLY deep DnD fans and have been for decades.....
And they low-key used this interview to teach the audience about the game and some basic rules.
From a fellow DM/GM.... Respect boys.
It bewilders me that both of these people have played Dungeons and Dragons with Matt Mercer.
WAIT. It happened????
IT HAPPENED!!!!! ruclips.net/video/3658C2y4LlA/видео.html
Someone please get Stephen Colbert as a guest on Critical Role.
eljavexio yaasss!!
YES YES YES
@@jessib3922 he's too busy
Hopefully, with the kickstarters success, he'll be involved in the production of the animated series. The cast has declared their interest in his participation
He already did, he even made the greatest plot twist on the series finale
Manganiello just guested on Big Bang Theory in a solid episode where he plays D&D in Will Wheaton's home group with Shatner and Kareem.
Most likely the result of this segment I suspect. Although... he did say a lot of writers play at his house, so maybe it was going to happen one way or another.
Brave of him, with Wheaton’s dice curse
@@ragewalrus6116 i thought the folks at crit role broke the curse by breaking the dice??
Maybe for their dice he touched 😂
I was thinking about that episode during almost this whole segment.
6:40 I love the sassy look on Stephens face as he whips out the dice bag.
i just love him more now the fact that he was proud to go on national television and say that he;s really into something most of society would cringe at. #respect
I can't help but feel like critical role helped so much both for Joe's new clothing line and for that revitalization of DnD that hes been putting together
The combined charisma bonuses on these two character sheets must be staggering...
I need a conversations like this for an hour or 2 lol love it!
why did I just discovered this ? It's glorious !
My nerd cred is worth nothing if I don't correct this false equivalency between Dragonborn and Half-Dragons.
Dragonborn are a race of clan-oriented humanoid creatures, typically aligned toward a lawful sense of honour and duty, while Half-Dragons are solitary, evil-aligned hybrids of true Dragons and another humanoid race (usually humans) produced by interbreeding or ritual. They are enormously different in appearance; Dragonborn have less natural armour, leaner builds, and lack the tails sported by Half-Dragons.
If Joe's paladin was indeed fathered by a shapeshifted dragon, it's not hard to imagine him breaking his Sacred Oath. Half-Dragons are forever tormented by their draconic lust for a privileged position in the cosmos, while their mortal natures serve as a constant reminder of their failure to fill this need.
What about metallic Half-Dragons?
His character is Dragonborn but he uses a variant setting Houserule that allows for a tail.
Depends on the world, of course.
"Dragonborn? How does that work?"
"Well my mom was a dragon and my dad was extremely brave!"
lol
Or maybe he is playing 3.x where it was a prestige class and not a race.
@@drsatanrx nope, Arkhan is 5e
I just failed my saving throw to resist watching another Colbert video.
I am so glad I understood everything they were saying and this now gives me life. I love this.
This man just described my childhood, teenage years, and most of my adulthood (since I'm not dead yet).
The path to Colbert's Guest Role on Critical Role is underway! Too bad Joe didn't Mention CR and Matthew Mercer. Stephen is Matt's bucket list Guest Player.
Stephen is definitely on the path, but I don't think a guest appearance on CR would have made logisitical sense at this point. The Emmys are on a Monday night, when Stephen would be visiting before likely returning on a morning flight since he has his nightly show to host. Rescheduling the entire cast and crew for CR to be able to play on Monday would have been a logisitical nightmare if it was even possible at that point (since all the players, Matt, and the crew have other duties through their days and likely intentionally leave their Friday mornings somewhat lighter due to their typical late Thursdays).
I hold out hope that we will see his guest appearance someday, but this trip was just too spur of the moment to work out.
If they ever have Stephen for a game, it will most likely be a pre-recorded one-shot, CelebriD&D style.
I love these two trying to out nerd each other.
Best interview ever. Crowd checked out long ago
There's the WIl Wheaton curse, and then there's Joe rolling a nat 20 on his first roll in the studio, on live television
One of my favorite Wil Wheaton lines of all time:
"Now, you may ask yourself, why didn't he roll yet? But no, I did roll. And I rolled another Natural One."
His stint on Crit Role was legendary. He's the anti-Percy.
Hotdamn, to be a fly on the wall when all these guys are drinking and playing D&D. That would be a show to watch!
You mean like Critical Role?
There is. I think they broadcast their games.
I wished that he'd live stream his games like Matt "The God" Mercer
I would want to be there when Vin Diesel walks into his basement yelling, "I heard you was talking shit," because Joe questioned his nerd cred on national TV.
Watching Joe talk shop about D&D makes me so happy. Watching Stephen match him beat for beat has me crying happy tears.
The only thing is I wish he had mentioned that he played live streams, and point people to watching Force Grey and Critical Role if they want a great example of what the hell he's talking about.
I loved this interview.
Joe's such a boss.
I love understanding this conversation and knowing that the half the audience is so confused
Watching Stephen’s reaction to Joe explaining 5th Edition character creation rules put a big ol’ dorky smile on my face. I want to play D&D with Stephen so much. And of course Joe rolls a natural 20 the one and only time he picks up the die.
that was a great interview and I don't even play DND
You should try some Crit Role. All the cool kids are doing it
I mean do you have an interest in it?
Just a little warning, it's stronger than most drugs...
Once you start you can't stop.
Unless you somehow lose your DM and dungeoneers, and that gets hella depressing.
