After taking a much-needed week-long break, Stephen Colbert wasted no time diving back into the latest news on Monday’s Late Show. He eagerly addressed an important story that had everyone talking. Colbert exclaimed, “We have been off the air for a week,” setting the stage for a lively discussion about current events that unfolded during his absence.
In a captivating five-minute segment, Colbert delves into various topics ranging from the shocking and unexpected dismissal of Tucker Carlson from Fox News(opens in a new tab). He humorously references a fictional investigation titled Nancy Drew and the Case of Why Didn’t This Happen Years Ago? to highlight the intrigue surrounding the situation. Colbert also humorously mentions that Carlson had referred to a Fox executive using a derogatory term, saying, “For those who don’t know what word I’m talking about, he called his boss a See You Next Tuesday, or in this case a See You Never, Tucker.”
To wrap up his segment, Colbert speculates on Carlson’s potential next moves, including reports about an enticing job offer from Russia State Media(opens in a new tab). With a playful tone, he quips, “That’s got to be a tempting offer. So far, he’s been representing Russia pro bono,” showcasing Colbert’s knack for blending humor with insightful commentary on the unpredictable nature of media personalities and their career trajectories.
