I thought I would share our experience seeing The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. It turned out to be pretty awesome. And while I can't say this is how it goes all the time, maybe you can glean some information from how things went for me for any visits you might want to [...]
In April of 2014, right after it was announced that Stephen Colbert would be taking over CBS's Late Show from retiring David Letterman, I made a few predictions. So far, five of the six have come true. I didn't correctly pick the band leader, however Ben Folds did appear on the first episode. Now [...]
Come and knock on our door, we got streaks on the China and what would we do baby without us? The Nerd Lunch Podcast welcomes back William Bruce West and we have what we're calling the "First Favorite TV Show Theme Songs" discussion.

We get some controversial results from the group as we discuss the future ramifications of erasing [...]
I have not watched every episode of Conan, but I have seen most of the episodes, at least the pre-interview stuff. I'm firmly in the Team Coco camp and felt he should have remained host of The Tonight Show.
