Josh Groban must be one of the most talented artists alive, and yet he manage to seem like he doesn't really think he is that great. Ever since I saw him when he was a 22 year old singer, he has kept his humble, down to Earth attitude.

I love Josh! I was fortunate enough to see him twice in concert. His voice is golden. I just can’t believe that he has never won a Grammy!! Ludicrous!! I still remember when he was on Ally McBeal.

Groban is a space nut? I have fallen more in love with him.

I have tickets to see Groban and Ashford in Sweeney Todd for August and I can't wait! It'll be my first time seeing the play and although I know the basic plot, I'm worried about being spoiled by all the details. So thanks Stephen and Josh for not spoiling it for us newbies.

He is such a great live singer! Saw him in concert a few years ago & he was great. He is awesome in Sweeney!

[@HAL-su8uc]

My Hero! One of the greatest Singers of all time!

Josh Groban AKA America's sweetheart ❤

[@jessicazaytsoff1494]

Excellent interview! Sondeim and NASA? Crush confirmed :)

[@BlakieTT]

Colbie and Joshie going down to see the space thing would be an amazing segment.

[@maureenparker6185]

One very talented man and loves space & theater just like me.

[@katiek6393]

He is such a delight. Also, I know exactly what he means about something like standing at the foot of the statue of liberty. That feeling of being so up close to something so grand.

[@LidiaScherArt]

What a delightful man! Great interview!

[@eleanormay729]

I absolutely love Josh Groban, he has the most amazing voice I have ever heard!

[@janmcguire5268]

He loves space? Just when I thought he couldn’t get any cooler!

[@maggiebannenberkowitz9254]

Great guy!!

[@savina77]

Josh is So lovely 😍😍

[@Shae29]

Aaah he and Andrew Garfield seem like the most sweetest people ever🥹🩷

Glad you got to visit NASA and Canadian Astronaut Jeremy Hansen hopes to share his pride with Canadians after being selected as a mission specialist.

Stephen Colbert! I cannot believe that you have not had a tour of inside the assembly building! I am a mere mortal compared to you and I have had a tour inside of that building when the shuttle Columbia was there when it had just come back from a mission. I was so close to Columbia I could touch it.That building is incredible as it wraps it self around what ever rocket is in it. So like the famous line from the movie "A League of Their Own" "See the building moves not the rocket." a play on what Jon Lovitz says "See girls the train moves not the building." I also was on a launch pad and was in the flame trench too. Oh and my tour was with an astronaut. Maybe you need to connect with an astronaut to get a proper tour.
