Before we go, let’s check in with our good friend Stephen Colbert of The Colbert Report…
Happy weekend, Zoners! Oh, I was so hoping we’d get a new Toss this week; I was holding out great hopes for Thursday’s show. Alas, no luck this week. So let’s go to the vault! Here’s a great one from 2006:
6/15/2006: Daily/Colbert – Mad Magazine: Stephen points out Mad Magazine’s lampooning of the Daily Show, but takes issue with their blasting his meaningless non-sequiturs.
Does anyone have this issue of Mad Magazine? I haven’t read that magazine since I was a kid (in fact, I’m surprised to learn they were still publishing it as recently as 2006, and indeed that it’s still being published on a quarterly basis). I love this Toss because it’s so meta, referencing a Toss within a Toss, and then parodying a parody of itself. My mind nearly folds into itself just describing it. Yahtzee! What do you all think of this Klassic?
Definitely one of my favorites! If only for the overly pleased grin on Stephen’s face when he says “yahtzee!” :D

Silvarius and I were just discussing on Twitter how we’re suffering from Jon/Stephen interaction withdrawal. Jon has yet to welcome Stephen back from his Vanouverage. Maybe they should do a Toss on Chatroulette, though I don’t know if Jon’s willing to do that now that he has openly declared his hatred for it, hahaha. That segment was awesome. Thanks for this!

That chatroulette segment was bested only by Jon’s Glenn Beck impersonation. It was perfection.

I seriously thought Stephen would be in that Chatroulette bit. If they did a Toss of it, that would make me so happy. :P

Excellent pick! They seem so tickled to have been sent up in Mad magazine, and what a fun response to it :)
