Here’s a clip from last night’s Late Show, where Stephen Colbert chats with his old Daily Show pal Lewis Black about how he’s managed to stay angry and bitter over all these years. His technique, it turns out, is pretty simple: “I wake up in the morning, I am severely optimistic, more than anybody could imagine. I believe that today is gonna be the day that America figures it all out. I’m convinced of it. We’ve made every mistake humanly possible, haven’t we? So today, just by accident, we might stumble onto the answer. And then I pick up the paper and go ‘Son of a bitch!’”
Check out another clip below, where Colbert presents him with some Late Show fans’ complaints about terrible roommates so he can yell at them on their behalf:
