Fan site for Stephen Colbert and the Colbert Report
For those of you who don’t frequent the Colbert Nation site on a regular basis, they’ve posted a web exclusive bonus performance of Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers. Have I mentioned yet how much I really, really like Rare Bird Alert? It’s fantastic music. (Interesting side effect of repeated listenings: I keep hearing phantom banjo music in my head.) This video features the track “Northern Island.” Stephen’s introduction is hilarious!

We’ve got a ton of Zoners who will be in the audience for the Stephen Sondheim ‘Company’ revival featuring Stephen Colbert. And now the Browncoats and Duckyites will be super pleased to hear that Mad Men’s Christina Hendricks (or “Saffron” for your firefly fans), and Jon “Why Am In A Sitcom With Charlie Sheen Again?” Cryer will be starring with Stephen! I cannot WAIT to hear the reports from this show!

Knut, the cutest bear known to the Colbert Nation and featured as the #1 Threat on a Threatdown in May of 2007, passed away this weekend from unknown causes. Let’s all take a moment to remember how Knut almost melted the heart of Stephen Colbert.
This hysterical video features famed artisan pencil sharpener David Rees as Julian Assange. Also, while watching the video, don’t forget to play one of my favorite games – “Spot the ‘Colbert Report’ writers!”
Welcome back, everyone!
I hope Stephen is rested and ready to rock and roll after his week off. I’m certainly happy to have him back. Since I’m getting a special kick out of Jewish Stephen, I’m eager to see where he’ll go with this clever idea. Since Passover comes before Easter (well, it s the Last Supper, after all), Stephen will still be Jewish for the holiday. Does that mean he’ll stop eating bread with his bacon and eggs?
Hi, gang! I don’t know about you, but this has felt like an especially long break to me, and I can’t wait for Stephen to return to the airwaves tomorrow night. In the meantime, if you’re a fan of Stephen’s readings of other people’s literary works, there are two recordings newly available to purchase.
