Featuring jon batiste and stay human. Now live on tape from the ed sullivan theater in new york city, its Stephen Colbert cheers and applause cheers and applause cheers and applause stephen hey hows it going . cheers and applause well, thank you very much thanks, everybody youre too kind welcome to the late show im your host Stephen Colbert happy first day of spring the birds are chirping, the brooks are babbling, and the neighbors are yelling for me to turn down my nature sounds c. D. laughter now, if youre in the northeast, it may not feel like spring, since its still pretty chilly today, though, just a few weeks ago, it was in the 60s. God, i wish it was winter again so i could wear shorts. laughter you cant tell. Jon yeah, you never know. Stephen of course, last week trump released his first budget. Theyre calling it a hard power budget because it features a 54billionincrease in military spending, and to pay for the new spending, trump is cutting everything else. Like the corporation for public broadcasting which funds pbs. audience boos look, look, i know. But trumps a real estate developer. It was only a matter of time before he put up condos on sesame street. cheers and applause trump is also can you tell me how to get how to get to sesame street you cant. Its gone. laughter one of these things is not like the others one of these things was cut from the budget laughter Donald Trumps also eliminating the National Endowment for the arts and the National Endowment for the humanities. audience boos i am not surprised, because hes jealous of anyone who is well endowed. laughter plus, trumps slashing the e. P. A. s budget by 31 . audience boos and the great lakes restoration initiative, which fights Invasive Species like the sea lamprey, could see its funding slashed by 97 . If youre not familiar with the sea lamprey, you might know it as the vicious, flesheating hell beast from your worst nightmares. laughter or as steve bannon calls it, my mentor. applause this budget jon get off, get off stephen this budget is so ruthless, its cutting funding for meals on wheels. Really . audience boos really . Cutting meals on wheels . That isnt just heartless, its bad marketing. You always stick with things that rhyme. Meals on wheels crack is whack hop on pop two buck chuck avoid the noid be kind, rewind this Program Provides elderly shutins just minimal nutrition and a scrap of human dignity. What kind of heartless monster could be against that . Colbert did someone say fiscal conservative . cheers and applause stephen oh, say hello to my conservative pundit colleague, Stephen Colbert. Hey, stephen, how are you . Colbert hello, nation. Stay strong. Be brave. Stephen now, just to be clear, stephen, you are not the character i used to play from my old show, are you . Because i really wouldnt want colbert that cuck . I could not be more different. Heres the difference his favorite sandwich is a b. L. T. Okay . I like a t. L. B. The b stands for balls. Its delicious, put it in your mouth. laughter stephen good to know. So whats so important that you had break into my show just now . Because i was doing a monologue. Colbert oh, believe me, stephen, i have Better Things to do out here in the woods. Ive been hunting the most dangerous game. Stephen youre hunting humans . Colbert no, bears have you forgotten so soon . They are godless killing machines, all right . Besides, humans are out of season. No, stephen, im here because America Needs me. Plus, i wanted to stop you from making an ass of yourself on network tv with your misguided analysis of trumps budget. Stephen oh, you think you can do better . Colbert do better . My middle name is do. Stephen okay, well, then. I guess the stage is yours. Ladies and gentleman, Stephen Colbert. cheers and applause colbert woo yeah, lets go over here. cheers and applause cheers and applause thank you, nation jon, youre a good man jon yes, indeed audience chanting stephen cheers and applause colbert thank you, everybody. Thank you, nation. You know, folks, trumps budget is getting heat because its supposedly cruel to old people for no reason. When, in fact, theyve got a very good reason. And that brings us to tonights werd cheers and applause screw unto others. Now, you heard the guy who normally sits here moaning about these cuts to meals on wheels, but that guy, hes a wellknown grandma hugger. laughter people are saying that this budget lacks compassion, but white house budget director and 49yearold temp Mick Mulvaney knows that its just the opposite. I think its probably one of the most compassionate things we can do to actually cutting programs that help the elderly youre only focusing on half the equation, right . Youre focusing on recipients of the money. Were trying to focus on both the recipients of the money and the folks who give us the money in the first place. Colbert yes, you cant just focus on helping the needy and forget the people whose taxes pay for it. Thats like praying for the accident victim who needed a transfusion and forgetting about the guy whos Walking Around a pint light now. Give the guy a cookie. laughter now, mulvaney had to cut meals on wheels because they failed to meet their objectives. Yes its called meals on wheels, but how often do you see a hamburger driving down the highway . laughter now folks, i know what youre saying they did meet their objective, stephen. They brought food to the elderly. Well, technically, yes, greg. And we all know what happens to food after we eat it. We are literally throwing money down the toilet. laughter and meals on wheels started in 1972. Now, i havent checked the stats, but im pretty sure all of those people are dead now. laughter besides, think about this mulvaney said, the primary goal of trumps budget is not driving cheetos to grandpa after he gets the munchies from his glaucoma pot, okay . Its defending america. laughter and these foodaddicted seniors havent killed any members of isis. If we want to keep america safe, why waste money on meals on wheels that could be used on Weapons Systems . laughter now, a lot of people say that mulvaney is being cruel to old people. Thats not fair. Hes also being cruel to young people. laughter because heres the deal this budget also cuts after School Lunch Programs for poor kids, but again, for a very good reason. Theyre supposed to be educational programs, right . Thats what theyre supposed to do, theyre supposed to help kids who cant who dont get fed at home, get fed so they do better in school. Guess what . Theres no demonstrable evidence theyre actually doing that. Theres no demonstrable evidence that theyre actually helping results, helping kids do better in school. Colbert yes, why feed children if they arent doing better in school . Take the food away, and maybe theyll be hungry for knowledge. laughter and remember, mulvaneys not doing this to be mean, hes looking out for taxpayers. I think its fairly compassionate to go to them and say, look, were not going to ask you for your hardearned money, anymore. Single mom of two in detroit, okay . Colbert good point, mick. I, for one, wouldnt want to be the fella who has to tell a single mom of two in detroit, im sorry, maam, but im afraid were going to feed your children. laughter the only thing that worries me is that this isnt actually a budget. You see, this is just the president s wish list. And Mick Mulvaney is just trumps magical monkey paw. laughter congress are the only ones who can make a budget. So my real worry here is that a lot of people might go to www. House. Gov and find out how to call their congressman and tell them to protect kids and old people, and that could derail applause because if they do that, if they called congress and did that, that could derail all of Donald Trumps compassion. And that might upset that lonely old man. Upset him so much that he just becomes a shutin. Stays in the white house, doesnt even eat, and someone has to bring him a meal. laughter and thats the werd. cheers and applause that other guys got a great show for you tonight. Bryan cranston is here. And after the commercial break, theres going to be puppies. Real puppies. So stick around. Well be right back cheers and applause take on the mainstream.

Stephen bryan, good to have you here. Nice to be back. laughter stephen yeah, you know even just reading the introduction there, im just struck by what an extraordinary um what an extraordinary roster of work youve put up there. I mean, you always approach everything with just such tremendous heart and emotional honesty and a true a true core of truth. Well, thank you thank you, stephen. I do try to approach each character with a level of dignity and laughter stephen bryan, you look like youre having a little trouble with the helmet. Do you want to take the helmet off . I would really love to. laughter stephen okay. But i dont know how. laughter stephen let me give you a hand. I think theres a little latch right here. Hold on just a second. Hold on. Ow, ow, ow cheers and applause thank you. Stephen there you go, there you go. Thank you, stephen. Stephen now, this takes me to my first question, which is, youre in is it sabans Power Rangers. Yes, sabans Power Rangers. Stephen which power ranger . What makes you ask that question . laughter stephen oh, i saw an ad. Oh, yeah right, yeah. Stephen very proud of you. Its looking very good. Stephen which power ranger are you playing . Well, im not a power ranger per se. I play a character named zordon, which is a disembodied head in the walls of a ship, which, you know, is very common. laughter stephen im just curious why the red power ranger outfit, then . Well, ive always wanted to be a ranger. laughter stephen okay. All right. We have i think we have a clip of you as zordon here. You do . Stephen do we happen to know whats happening in this clip . I dont know. I think its when i first meet these new rangers. Stephen okay. Who are not yet working as a team and thats what they will need to do in order to save the universe. Stephen lets find out. Jim. You mean to tell me that the fate of the universe is placed in the hands of these children . Theyre teenagers, somewhere between infancy and full maturity. Its hard to explain really, i dont show me the coins. The morphing grid is never wrong. If the power coins have returned to the ship with these teenagers, then these teenagers are the Power Rangers. Okay, quick question. Did i just hear you say were Power Rangers . Yes, yes, you are the Power Rangers. Any other questions . No, i think im good. Good. Wow. Stephen wow. cheers and applause wow. So, um. You are a floating head. Yeah. Stephen did you, how youre a method actor. How do you prepare to play a floating head inside a space ship . I first severed a head laughter stephen not your own. Not my own. Um, you know, you approach a character the same way, whether youre doing Something Like this in a fantasy sequence, or Historical Context or something. Stephen but im guessing that in this one you mostly did voiceover and were allowed to keep your sweat pants on the entire time. Thats not the reason i took the job, stephen, if thats what youre laughter stephen im just saying, you probably didnt have to wear pants when you did this one. Well, youre right. When i did just the head, i was nude from the i have a nudity clause in every contract. laughter but its the opposite of what you think. I have to be naked all the time. laughter stephen now, you are not new to the universe of Power Rangers, i understand, because, back in the 90s, before you were the great Bryan Cranston, you were working actor Bryan Cranston, and i understand that we have a clip here of you as one of the monsters in the 1990s. Yes stephen this is youre playing snizzard. laughter jim, do we need to set up the scene . Its noting to snizzer at, but, its, um stephen jim . Now you will feel the full power of the zapper apple mmm you wont get away with this goodbye, power ranger ahhh cheers and applause stephen you were snizzard, you were the monster there . I played a bunch of different monsters when the show first came over to the states from japan. They needed to dub it into english, and i played a lot of the monsters, because even at 23, i think, when i did it, my voice was rather low, so i would say low voice you will not defeat me slibbidy dee, slibbidy do. laughter he would always have some kind of rhyme. I shall slice off your toe or whatever. Stephen can i feel your hands . Are you sweaty in there . No, im actually very comfortable. Stephen really . Yeah. I can control my own body temperature. laughter stephen oh, wow. Just through a thought process. Stephen thats incredible. Im going to drop it five degrees. laughter there. Stephen can you stop your heart, too . I can stop my heart, and so can my wife. audience reacts stephen well, this is not the first time laughter okay. The reason i ask, youre comfortable in the outfit. I am comfortable, yes. Stephen youre comfortable in outfits a lot because we found another clip from when you were younger. laughter the one thing i love about you is you always approach all your parts with tremendous dignity. Well, ive kept that as a promise to myself. Once i get in, ill approach everything i do from that dignified point of view. I dont want to do anything that could embarrass me. Stephen um, jim . He had a problem. People noticed. And one day he noticed. Thats when i found out about shield deodorant soap. Unlike ordinary soap, shield keeps you smelling fresh and clean all day long. cheers and applause hey, youre a changed man shield works long after ordinary soaps dont. Damn you, colbert damn you cheers and applause stephen thats a pretty sexy skunk thats a pretty sexy skunk thats a sexy pungent skunk stephen man, how old were you when you were doing that . I was, like, 25. Stephen isnt it amazing when youre younger how excited you must have been so excited to get that part. I was absolutely beside myself. Stephen i couldnt get arrested to make commercials when i was younger. I would have killed for that commercial yeah, i know. Stephen because you can pay rent now, youre in new york right now shooting something with kevin hart called the untouchables right here. Oh, i dont know if you stephen whats going on in this photo right here. I dont know if you should stephen we can show this. What is happening in this photo right here . Well, you know, there are stephen the name of the film is untouchable. laughter whats going on . And. Career. Stephen the dignity parade continues. Out the window um, well, you know, from time to time there are things you can do on the set to energize the crew or just being by energized. Stephen ive never sprung this on my crew yet. laughter what are you waiting for . and kevin hart is a good sport. He took it the wrong way. So laughter stephen youre also, i understand that youre going to be doing an adaptation a stage adaptation of network in london. Yes. Stephen who are you playing . For those of you who havent seen it, its a tremendous, a prophetic film from 1974 about what happens to network news and what happens to sort of american culture. And paddy cheyefsky wrote it as a satire back in the day and now doesnt seem so satirical. Stephen i showed i actually just watched it three weeks ago with my 15yearold son and he said, i thought you said this was a comedy. laughter he said, seriously, i dont understand the joke, this is what tv is like. Yeah, its very potent and will resonate with todays audiences. Im doing it in london at the national theatre, and im very excited. I play howard biehl, im mad as hell and im not going to take it anymore stephen wow, i think people are ready i think people are ready to yell that again. I think so, yeah.

You know, but i sort of feel like im blessed enough to have this one and im just going to enjoy it even though, you know, it it wrecks you a little bit but it blows you up in ways that you never thought possible. Stephen but youre working through it in interesting ways. Uh, show this little theres a tweet which i love. This is true motherhood, i believe. You tweeted this. You just i dont know when you did this, but you just tweeted this, you just said i just spilled grits on my babys foot, then ate said grits from said foot, motheroftheyear. cheers and applause how did this. Did the baby step in the grits . What happened . Believe it or not, i was nursing the baby while i was trying to eat grits. I was in the south doing a concert, and the grits were so good, i was going to eat every last bit of it. And im trying to nurse her, im eating it, and the last little bit of it landed on her foot and i was like, i want those grits. laughter so while i was nursing her, i just lifted her foot and laughter and i thought stephen thats better than a spoon. This is multitasking and also sort of embarrassing and i had to confess. Which is why i went to twitter, to confess. Just as tasty with a little bit of foot on them. Stephen the dangerous thing about eating grits off a babys foot is there is not a ham hock in the world as juicy as that babys foot. laughter you just want to keep going. Exactly. Stephen its like foie gras. Well marbled. laughter it was worth it, its absolutely worth it. The grits were worth it. Stephen well, you had a very busy fall besides having a baby, you also received the National Medal of the arts. Okay, congratulations. Thank you. cheers and applause stephen what a singular honor.

I was due any day but i was not going to miss this chance to go, so i thought maybe ill give birth at the white house i dont know. Maybe thats whats going to happen today, i dont know. Stephen wow. And so its a very formal affair. I mean its lovely in the afternoon when you have the reception and all that stuff, but then it gets very formal when its time to present the medal. The president stands there holding the medal, and theres somebody from the military guard who reads a citation about you, and theres about 20 people who are getting the award. And so we were lined up in whos supposed to get the award next. So the person on this side of me goes up and gets his award. And im thinking, okay, you can do this, you can walk up there with your big old belly. And then he skips to the guy on the other side of me. I thought, okay. And then after that, he went to the guy on the other side of that guy, and i kept thinking, maybe im not getting one. And president obama looked, he kept looking, hes like, we skipped her. Why are we skipping her . And they said, we dont have a citation for her. And i said stephen they lost the paperwork . They lost the paper. So president obama said, i know her, shes a friend of mine. Ill make up some stuff about her. So he was getting ready to make up some stuff about me. Im thinking, of course, my big moment and its just going really well. So finally, they find the paper, they run it up to the guy and he starts to read it. And then as i step up there im thinking, dont screw it up. And, you know, smile and shake mr. Obamas hand. And as hes shaking my hand he said, you just had to mess this up, didnt you . laughter stephen thank you so much for being here. Thank you.
