Colbert and his buddy Elvis Costello, older and heavier than in his angry young man days, share memories of losing their mothers.
Then they chat about the Beatles.

Colbear’s Earing Problem
Last night, Stephen Colbert had a cute bit about Fat Bear Week in Alaska.
In this 2007 recording I made in New York, Colbert said he really does have a bear phobia.
Mike “Race” Pence
The shocking, yet not surprising, stories from the final months of Trump’s term in office continue to surface.
Being able to paste in a YouTube URL and have a Colbert video appear is quite a change from 15 years ago. Back then I had analog cable TV being captured by an ATI TV Wonder card.
I edited using a very old version of Pinnacle, then had to convert to FLV, because Flash was the only available streaming video format. The process was labor intensive and extremely time consuming, and it ended in a 320×240 video that was uploaded to the site via FTP. Painful!
What hasn’t improved since then? Dealing with WordPress problems.
Chameleon Actor
Stephen Colbert chatted with Robert Duvall recently. Colbert asked Duvall about working with Brando, which is where this clip comes in.
A very different interview with Duvall would focus on his Science Fiction work, including THX-1138.
Years before THX-1138, Duvall appeared in The Twilight Zone. A while ago I watched as many episodes of the original The Outer Limits as I could before it was yanked from Amazon Prime. The series was good at stretching what could have been half-hour episodes into full hours. Duvall worked well with the deliberately slow pacing, as seen in “The Chameleon.”
Thugs on Both Sides
My advice for the MAGA goons: Go home, take some hydroxychloroquine, and then inject disinfectant.
Colbert went on one of his epic rips last night.
