Howard Stern's Extended 'Late Show' Interview

[@-TheRealScubasteve-]

The story Stephen didn’t want Howard to tell was talked about on Stern’s show a couple days ago. Howard offered to give the first interview to Stephen before Jimmy because Stephen has better ratings. But Stephen knew that Howard and Jimmy were really close friends and Stephen told Howard to do Jimmy’s show first because he knew Jimmy needed the ratings and because of how close they were. That says so much about Stephen and how friends and relationships come before ratings. That says so much about Stephen’s character. Great interview by the way!

[@maryinsanfrancisco]

It does say so much about Stephen - I knew that the story must show Stephen in a good light and that's why he demured. He probably didn't want to call attention to either of their ratings either.

[@Matt561]

He is friends with Kimmel

[@dawnieb.7394]

Can't believe I'm just discovering this now. The stuff he said about Trump alone is fascinating. I would pay good money to see Colbert interview Stern like this for a few hours.

i have a whole new sense of appreciation for Stern after this interview. His vulnerability and honesty is so refreshing.

[@johnaustx]

He pushes the boundaries and asks hard, uncomfortable questions at times when the truth is more important than the feelings of the guests involved in scandals, twisting the truth and challenging guests and by putting them on the spot when they are spinning the truth, or straight up lying to

[@lisadiconti]

Yes. It's rare to find that.

[@RudeCustoms]

That's how a lot of people end up becoming a Stern Fan. Those that mock and ridicule him? They just don't get it. It's honesty at its purest form that makes the interviewee feel comfortable to answer his questions. This episode of Colbert just proved it.

[@TheGreatKahoona]

If you guys were wondering what the story Stephen didn't want Howard to tell, it was about his appearance on The Tonight Show with Fallon. In his radio show leading up to the promotional tour of his book Howard talked about dreading going on talk shows and two of the talk shows that wanted him on were Colbert and Fallon. Howard is friendly to both Colbert and Fallon and Howard thought that if he went on one show before the other that it might seem he's showing favoritism, that is not the case. He ended up doing a coin flip to see which show he would do first and the winner was Colbert. A few weeks later Howard was back on the radio talking about how bad and stressed he feels about doing Fallon's show second, although if Fallon won the coin toss he would feel bad that he was doing Stephen's show second. Stephen heard him on the radio and called Howard (off air)and told him to do Fallon first and he's OK with it. Howard actually tells this story on his appearance on Fallon.

Even when Howard wasn't this self aware, I still knew him to be capable of it.

I've always found Howard to be very likable.

[@kishidan69]

Howard did what he had to do for the ratings, he did get too engrossed in it at times, offended many by saying that wrong things, which he usually admits to now with regret. But if you look under that crass, somewhat repulsive veneer, you can see that this guy is genuinely interested in understanding and dissecting his guests's thoughts, not just paying lip service or sucking up. He's definitely grown much, much better with age.

moiraine_damodred I agree. I’m 24 minutes in and can’t believe it’s going by this quickly. The problem with Stephen doing more interviews like this because most of the guests are fairly shallow people and only care about selling their movie or book. You have to have an interesting guest to have an interesting interview. But letterman used to do long form interviews like this when he had interesting guests; hope he continues to do this when he can.

So proud of Howard, He's evolved so much as a person. When people act like assholes, toward other people just for a laugh, it's almost always about there own insecurities. Howard has always been a comedic genius and one of the greatest interviewers of our time. After years of psychotherapy and addressing different forms of trauma from his childhood, he has a more positive outlook on life. Howard, now understands that his parents did the best they could, and that's all any of us are capable of. My own personal background has so many similar parallels to Stern, which is why I always found him relatable....In my opinion, he has managed to use his popularity and influence to become an advocate for therapy. There's always been such as negative stigma attached to mental health. Love is the greatest medicine there is. There's no better feeling than the human touch from people you connect with. Freeing the mind is freeing the soul! I love you Howard

It's only people who barely listen to him or only judge him based on what others say or their perception of him. Their hatred of Howard is never based in reality.

[@jps6709]

@@boomieboo The Howard of the 2000s and to the present is a reasonable guy. It's hard to hate a reasonable person. But before that he was indeed racist and misogynistic and would say anything on the air for attention. That is the Howard that people that hate Howard are referring to. They either don't understand that he has changed or they don't care and don't forgive him.

Wow. I've never really been a fan of Howard Stern. In fact, I kind of got turned off by him many years ago. This interview was fantastic. I see Howard in an entirely different light. He's grown up (matured really) and I could have listened to this interview if it had gone on for 5 hours. Man...excellent interview....both for Stephen and especially for Howard. Well done sirs!

[@rockhero2274]

Yeah but in a way kinda sad. Gone are the days of Lesbian Dial a Date and Butt Bongo Fiesta.

[@brucec5950]

Dan Tharp ... U had me at 'never been a fan' 😏 .... still not 😞 ... Howard is still selling 😒

[@serious7179]

Dan Tharp I agree...his recent talk show tour has changed my opinion of him.

[@wendydelucca6918]

Love the honesty!

[@01rai01]

That 30 mins went fast, So captivated! We all know how great Howard Stern but huge props for Stephen too, for this great interview and letting Howard speak without interruption.

[@vdoscanr]

Colbert did an amazing interview with the KING OF ALL MEDIA...

[@bpham2010]

Stephan is an amazing interviewer and person, Howard Stern is one of the best interviewers

[@combatmako]

Never been a fan UNTIL ON... Thank you Steven!! Go Howard GO!!!! Yea Bernie 👍👍 ✌️❤️😁

[@kishidan69]

This is, hands down, the best interview I have ever heard on Colbert. Yes, I'm totally biased for Howard and love listening to him, but Stephen carries the interview well like only Stephen could, was totally engrossing. Loved Howard's mention of Bernie too.

[@annecivetta9694]

Adore Stephen! And starting to really, really like Howard.

[@susanrosegale6646]

Jonathan Batiste is amazing, Howard is right - that is a Ferrari,. Howard your so much more real now, good work! Stephen your a genius for posting this extended piece. Love you guys!!

[@tcg4111]

You're* (sorry, I'm not trying to be a grammar nazi, just looking out 🙂)

[@skeptikai]

Interesting that Biden made it in, but Howard saying Bernie was like a hero and stood up for him was cut from the TV...

[@brianwalendy3735]

Bias and bucks

[@scottevans9454]

I have just lost respect for Bernie. In a decent society Howard would be tared and feathered and run out of town.

[@victorespino5650]

Colbert is a sell out

[@jimbobaggins27]

Scott Evans Im not fan of people like Stern and the folks at TMZ. However when it comes to free speech, I’m for these people having the choice to have their careers. I’m glad Sanders agrees as well.

[@DoggoWillink]

Scott Evans What is tared?

[@amandamaxfield7026]

This is literally the best interview I’ve seen, it felt very real and it was really really awesome 👏

[@reddwarf2048]

Nah

[@raphaelrtw]

I would hear Stern talk for hours straight. This man is beyond genius level. He's entertainment personified.

[@MarioLCO]

You literally can

[@davidproudfoot6390]

Howard Stern is the greatest I've listened to him since back in The day when he was on the AM station in Washington DC long live the king of all media

[@christopherallen9580]

yes sir

[@ashes0529]

Great interview. Thanks for posting.

[@poppawoody13]

What a great interview. I love an in-depth interview and this was great.

[@TheLeiaShow]

That was brilliant. I could listen to them for hours.

[@CharlieTWilbury]

I really love this interview. That exchange around the 22 minute mark is so interesting. They had a whole little side conversation going on there and Stern ultimately decided not to tell the story. The way they were acting, especially Stern leads you to believe that it was going to be a very flattering story about Colbert. For Colbert to be so protective makes me think it may involve a third party and the story may be embarrassing to them. I thought it was very cool that Stern clearly considered it and decided not to tell the story. That's the way it should be. We don't need to know fucking everything.

[@tomscullin]

This is probably one of the greatest late night talk show interviews I've ever seen.

[@2030matrix]

Stephen is a very classy and righteous dude. I've also always admired Howard's honesty over the years.

[@androidlaki23]

"You look like a disturbed uncle." Haha! I listened to years and years of Howard on NYC radio - and he was hysterical. He woke me up with terrestrial radio in the morning and it was such a push for me to get to work and go through work. So he really was an element in my life. Gawd bless him.

[@gtrcommunications7751]

Stephen is so much more enjoyable doing these kind of proper interviews.

[@pamalawashington9371]

I had a similar situation to Howard. I had a huge scare as well, and was told that there was a good chance I had kidney cancer, and ended up being PKD, which isn't great, but beats cancer! Great interview! I haven't listened to Howard in so many years, and he definitely doesn't talk like I remember!

[@blahblah1438]

I am 49 years old now, and I remember being a teenager sneaking up late at night to watch the his shell. I liked him then, and I really like him now. I could sit and listen to him talk for a long time. Nice guy smart

[@byindani]

I appreciate that he has those regrets. That’s why I couldn’t stand him back in the day.

[@justmissjamey]

Back in the day he was amazing , these days he is about horrid and ran the show into the ground sadly

[@leec.7168]

I couldn’t STAND him back when he was obnoxious. Now, THIS Howard Stern is awesome. He was ridiculous back then. He’s so much more human and ADULT. Great interview.

[@ribbs13]

Before his divorce and therapy....Howard was at his best! Those KROCK shows were legendary

[@KO-OG-Passport-Bro-1997]

This interview was a hundred times better than the one he did with Jimmy Fallon!!!

[@kevinr.3542]

NBC must really be on Fallon to be the happiest, most likeable person ever. He's pretty smart and self aware. I don't think hes doing that by choice. Someone pulls the puppet strings for sure

[@tammyrogne1471]

"You look like a disturbed uncle"😁

[@janettekenos3674]

Complete respect for this man. I have changed my opinion of him completely and congratulations to him for the work he has done on his mental health!

[@patsycav]

Many thanks for this interesting, wonderful video with Howard Stern. He is indeed an amazing human being. Wow.

[@cwbrooks5329]

This is great television. Thanks so much.
