1. I knew the Ivanka joke was coming

and I still laughed so hard that tears fell...

2. Thank you for posting these. I missed the first half of the show.

Colbert is awesome. He provides intelligent concise opinion and facts on political issues with a mix of comedy.

[Fritz Walter]

3. Oh, THAT one song!

At the risk of posting a spoiler here, I had to look up the name of the song that Jon first mentioned, "Gymnopedie No. 1" by Satie. As soon as it started playing, I recognized it immediately.

Very relaxing.

Well done, Jon!


And, as always, thanks for posting these clips!

7. I'm not a piano player, but I would Gymnopedie #1 as one of the easiest classical pieces to learn.

The bass clef consists of mostly repeating chords until near the end of the piece. While #1 is the most famous Satie piece, I think that I'm a bit fonder of Gymnopedie #3.

4. "She finally screwed him."

Daggar to Heart.

5. Jon Baptiste is a beautiful human being, from the inside out, just saying.

Colbert is a tonic to this age.

6. Jokes about incest are in poor taste.

I wouldn't go there.
