COLBERT’S FINAL WEEK, SPRINGSTEEN, STEWART & THE END OF LATE NIGHT? | AOA Podcast
from Anthony On Air · host Anthony
On this episode, we say goodbye to Stephen Colbert as CBS rolls out the final week of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, including appearances from Jon Stewart, Steven Spielberg, Bruce Springsteen, David Byrne and a series finale that feels like the end of an era for network late night TV. We break down the emotional farewell, David Letterman’s return to the spotlight, and what Colbert’s legacy means for the future of late night. Plus, we reveal who the wealthiest late night hosts really are, California finally bans the endlessly annoying Kars4Kids jingle from the airwaves, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus reveals the massive behind-the-scenes Seinfeld argument that caused real tension on set. Late night TV, celebrity net worths, sitcom drama, TV nostalgia and one less earworm for humanity.
