Thank you so much for being here, everybody. Welcome to the late show. Im stephen colbert, your host. It is another Beautiful Day in the trumpy hood. Another Beautiful Day for him to show you his wood. Allegedly. There is continuing fallout an grabup from last weeks did you know trivia question did you know there is someone else running for president . Hillary clinton. Its true, you can look it. Every day, we get another revelation about clinton from wikileaks. Any more, and were going to need wikidepends. Cant even tell im wearing a pair. The latest the latest wikiwikileakyleaky, is a list of the vice clinton was considering. It was just released. It includes political superstars like minnesota senator amy klobuchar, and secretary of agriculture tom vilsack the vilsack attack. Also in this wikileakreleased list are Business Leaders like apple c. E. O. Tim cook and starbucks c. E. O. Howard schultz. But, apparently, hillary decided against schultz because the race already had one pumpkinspiced but there were almost 40 names on the full list, and Clinton Campaign chair john podesta organized them, apparently, into women, latinos, african americans, and military and Business Leaders. Groups he called rough food groups. Which, of course, can only mean one thing john podesta eats people. Probably could mean other things, too, but thats the first thing i thought o. Coincidentally, i just got my hands on Donald Trumps list of potential v. P. S. Its tom brady, meatloaf, all my kids not tiffany and a handdrawn picture of boobs. Pretty good. Pretty good likeness. Jon i see that. Week bob dylan won the nobel prize in literature. applause yeah. Im on board. I love it i love it. This is great for bob, and it finally proved someone can understand what hes saying. Theres just one problem the Nobel Academy says they cant find bob dylan to give him his prize. He could be anywhere, but if i i might try the kiva auditorium in albuquerque, new mexico, because thats where he is. Grab him during a hard rains gonna fall. Thats, like, a fifteenminute song. You guys like dylan . Jon yeah, yeah. Stephen dylan is amazing. I love his lyrics. You have seen him lately . Likes to change up the instrumentitationave song. I saw him at Madison Square garden it was, like, i dont know, 200 a ticket or something, and he played alternative tunes, too, like hit songs. And you also cant understand what hes singing, so you dont know what song hes playing at any time of day. Like, the entire thing, i hear him say, hey. Is this tambourine man . Is he doing tambourine man right now . I heard a hey. I cant tell. Wait, he is that maggies farm or is he covering rod stewarts maggie may. Someone, pass out a glossary now, the Nobel Committee says they will celebrate with or without kill an. If he doesnt want to come, he wont come. It will be a big party in any case. Someone just won the nobel passiveaggressive prize. Meow meow applause actually, maybe its better if he doesnt come. Nobody likes the guy at the party who picks up a guitar and starts playing bob dylan songs. laughter anyway, nobel people, if you really cant find him, just play one of his songs in a commercial. His lawyers will find you. Now say hello to some actual tambourine men, jon batiste and stay human. cheers and applause . . . cheers and applause . Tambourine man play a song for me .

Folks, its been 11 days since we heard donald trump on the gropetown express, and a lot of people have distanced themselves donald trump, at least one arms length. But one person is standing by him, his wife and strategic eye shadow reserve, melania trump. laughter yesterday, melania did interview for both fox news and cnn. She would have gone on msnbc, but Steve Kornacki gets jealous when another supermodel is on the network. The man is an adonis. Now, last night on the anderson explained who she really blames for Donald Trumps behavior. They were kind of a boy talk, and he was lead on, like egg on, from the host to say dirty and bad stuff. Stephen yes, it was all billy bushs fault. laughter now i know why they were on a bus. Its easier to throw billy underneath it. laughter applause cheers so, let me get this straight. Melanias defense of donald trump the man who wrote art of the deal is that he got outmaneuvered by a guy who has been deemed by the today show to be unqualified to watch someone else make a festive fall frittata . Donald trump, we have it tow keep him away from heavy hitters like mario lopez. Who put a picture of Steve Kornacki up there . Just imagine what impact billy will have once trump has the Nuclear Codes . Hey, mr. Trump, this is me, billy bush. I think its time to teach finland a lesson. What would you do . I would bomb the bleep out of em. Id blow up every single inch, there would be nothing left. Stephen gone, now, these melania interviews were themselves a surprise because weve barely seen her since the republican convention, where she plagiarized michelle obama. But now that she has resurfaced, we at the late show want in. So please welcom live via satellite, melania trump. Thank you. Mrs. Trump, thank you for joining us. laughter my pleasure, stephen. And i want you to know we are completely alone. There is no one else in the room coaching me. laughter . Stephen okay, okay. Good to know.

We need to focus on important issues facing our nation, like how the election is rigged. Stephen really . Whos rigging it . International bankers, amd billy bush. Stephen billy bush. So you dont blame your husband for what he said . Yes, i do. I said to my husband that those words are very unappropriate. Plus, he said them on a bus. Disgusting. laughter this is not the man i married. Stephen well, have you forgiven your husband . Yes. laughter applause cheers stephen you have .

I did not know this, but when american men gather to sport, they always brag of grabbing women by the billy bush. laughter stephen im sorry. The billy bush . Stephen boosh. Okay. So youve forgiven him. I have morthan forgiven, stephen. I have forgotten stephen its hard to believe anyone can forget what he said. Forget what was today .

And these women, woof. Am i right. Up top. Stephen i cant highfive you over satellite. Mrs. Trump, are you all right . I am fine. Im certainly not blinking out in morse code that someone else is in the room telling me what to say. laughter stephen okay. Do you think these scandals will doom your husbands chances among women . No. Women know its boy talk. Bad boys, bad boys, what you going to do . laughter stephen i hate to point this out, but your husband isnt a boy. Hes a 70yearold man. Boys, men its the same. No matter how nice they seem, secretly theyre all foulmouthed billybushgrabbing pigs. Im talking about your husband, your brother, the pope, luke skywalker, all of them. Stephen all men are like this . Yes. Theyre all animals. If only a woman could be president. Stephen well, i dont know how to say this, i mean, melania, actually, Hillary Clinton is a woman.

So i got 400 goals. And this guy wrote in a little town, he wrote in a paper, everybody should have their own nickname. A player of that caliber should have a name and he said well call him, the greatest one. And i thought oh, my goodness i and it stuck with me my whole life. Stephen did you feel you had to live up to it when you became a pro . I felt the responsibility of playing well. Each and every night, the cities you played nthe people paid to see you play and you want to play the best you can play. Believe me, i had a lot of bad games, but all in all, i am pretty proud of my career. cheers and applause . Stephen the game, as you see it now when you look at hockey now, has the game change . Oh, yeah. Theyre better athletes. The equipments better. Theyre better coached. Its a great time for hockey right now. Our sport is in a good position, its in a good place. Im a fan. I love watching these kids play. Stephen how do you think you would do in todays league . Im 55. Stephen i mean, when you were younger. Oh, okay. Stephen obviously, you wont be in the top 10 now. But when you were younger if you were a younger man in todays league, would it be tougher or easier . Oh, it would be a lot tougher. Stephen why . Ec better. But i think that somehow my hockey sense i would have found my way through it all. Stephen your hockey sense. I didnt have the size or the power or the speed. I had to use my knowledge of the game, and thats what made me successful as a player. So i somehow would find a way today, but, obviously, it would be tougher. Stephen was there so many people look up to you. Who was the player you looked up to . There was only one, gordie ho, with e. Yeah. He was mr. Hockey. The greatest person, the greatest player. I say this all times to people, sometimes you meet your idol and your mom and dad say, hour, was it . Was he good . Was he nice . Was he friendly . Sometimes its not that great. I met gordie howe when i was 10 and i said to my dad, it was bigger and better than that i ever imagined. What was really great about it, i got two hours off of school that day, and i got a new that was my first suit i ever got after the banquet. Stephen how much longer after this . I was 10 in that photo. Stephen how long before you were playing pro hockey. Seven years. Stephen seven years did you ever play against gordie howe. We played together in the world pleeg all star game. That was fun. Gordie was in the locker room, and my sweater was so big i was 145 pounds that year and the jersey was so big, gordie took these stitches and he stitched up my jersey to make it gordie howe did it before the game. Thats how great he was. The book is called 99 stories of the game. 99, obviously, was your jersey number. Are there 99 stories in here . Approximately. It was so hard to pick exactly what we wanted. It is the ninth anniversary of the National Hockey league right now, so i wanted the kids to read about the cities and the arenas and the plaers and the teams, the franchises, some of the Great Stories of the i loved the game so much, and it was so good to me. I wrote sat down and wrote something. Hopefully kids will love it. Stephen one other thing about gordie howe. I understand when you broke his alltime scoring record he was there. Yeah. He was he was always around every time i got close to one of his records i would call and invite gordie and colleen to be part of it. Sometimes i would get so nervous because he was in the stands, i could go a week without scoring, i have to score a goal here so gordie howe can go home. That was pressure. Stephen did he travel around with you guys . Yes, he did. Hes a wonderful man. And i loved him being around, lets face it. Stephen was it also hockey or do you think there could have been another sport you could have played . My first love and my passion was baseball. As a kid, i grew up i loved the game of baseball more than anything. I just wasnt quite as good at baseball as i was hockey. So i think i made decision. Stephen now, i understand you actually ran into the Cleveland Indians in a hotel the other day. Yes, toronto. Stephen gave them a few tips. I gave them a couple of poirnts and both guys hit home run. Stephen so if they win the series, you get to touch the trophy. Yeah, people in toronto will be upset. Stephen 99 stories of the game is available now. The great one, wayne gretzky, everybody.

Because theyre evil and scary. Stephen are they evil and scary . I think we are so scared of them as humans stephen most people dont and i think doing a film about them, but shot like a horror film, scored like a horror film, plays into our fears. Stephen it absolutely is. We have a clip here. And in this clip, its new york city . It is right downtown, probably 40 blocks from here. Stephen and these are people looking for rats . Rat catchers.
