VIDEO: Stephen Colbert Analyzes the State of the Union on Late Night
When we get hit with the brunt force of a difficult complex news story, leave it to one of the dozen or so Daily Show alums who've become Late Night staples in recent years, the most public and celebrated of which is of course Stephen Colbert, and he did not fail us when it came to the surreal lucid nightmare that was the White House's State of the Union speech. And Stephen Colbert, recognizing his role in explaining politics to the country (or at the very least, the part of the country that agrees with him that things are kind of in a dire state right now), made sure to do a live special after the State of the Union giving the blow by blow and play by play of the speech. Check it out below in order to get the righteous eye rolling that a speech like this deserves.

VIDEO: Conan O’Brien Talks About His Bizzare DNA Test
Conan O'Brien is making a renewed splash in our consciousnesses, forcing us all to go: "Oh man, this guy really is the best, huh?" Conan returned with a sharper and sleeker half hour format, a podcast ("Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend" from Earwolf), and a sharper, more grounded, and often wonderfully nihilistic persona. All of this was on display when Conan O'Brien went on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert after the Super Bowl, and proceeded to put a bow around his incredible stories about his feelings towards his body, which he showed off with great aplomb, and tied it off with the story of the DNA test that shocked his doctors.

VIDEO: Ellen Page Issues Impassioned Call For An End To Hateful Leadership
We're at a crossroads in our American history, and we're faced with a simple question, not dressed up in the sexiness of any 1960's style movement: do we want to be better? There are clear political forces in the likes of the MAGA supporters who beat Jussie Smollett for being black and gay, or the boys who harassed a Native American man that say, no, being bad as a culture, where the bully can get more sympathy than their victim if he has the right PR firm, benefits them personally, and they would like to continue down on this direction. However, we have to get better, for the sake of our marginalized communities, and the sake of the world at large, we have to get better, and it is armed with that powerful message that Ellen Page comes to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to discuss, at time getting emotional, and at all times on message, informed, and discussing the world.

Late Show With Colbert Creates Adventure Time/Trump Parody
The mid terms have devastated the President's concentration, with the historic turn out and historic losses causing the leader of the free world to shut himself off into his office, showing just passive aggressive anger at many who work in his inner circle, to the point where they had to make a special "Policy Time" to force him to do his work. This led the Colbert staff to take this strange and childish descriptor and take it to its parodic conclusion: a parody of Pendleton Ward's beloved Cartoon Network superhit, Adventure Time.
