Taking from the numerous complaints about the conditions of room and board for non-athletes at The Sochi Winter Olympics, Conan O’Brien and Yuri Tamarov, Sochi hotel PR rep/Andrés du Bouchet make a classic sketch.
How is it classic? Well, when Conan uses the superlative “dumbest” to describe something that just happened when the sketch is over, it’s pretty safe to say it’s classic.
In the late night talk show showdown where talk shows are really booking something big in order to compete with Leno’s last week at The Tonight Show, perhaps what will be one of the most interesting and funniest interviews is Stephen Colbert interviewing members of the punk group Pussy Riot on The Colbert Report.
First off, there’s a translator adding a whole new element of comedic timing to the interview as well as the two members of Pussy Riot being pretty great in the interview. Also, Colbert clearly takes interest towards the end of Pussy Riot’s aims and invitation for Putin to put them back into jail over maintaining the Colbert character.
Give this amazing interview a watch now. Parts one and two.
The Chris Gethard Show Coming to The Bay Area To Put on Better Winter Olympics
Chris Gethard and company are coming to the West Coast finally and will be putting on their shenanigans Feb. 8th at the Eureka Theater after the start of The Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
They promise a much better, more entertaining version of The Olympics and we have no doubt that Gethard will succeed.
There is no “if” to qualify here; just go.
