President Trump appears ready to officially enter the Israel-Iran war, you can tell the Pentagon is on a war footing because of all the pizza they ordered, Stephen shares a decade-old photo of his writers room on the day Donald Trump came down the golden escalator, and fans of the president’s merch have a raft of new collectables to spend their cash on. Acclaimed stand-up comedian Nate Bargatze has been tapped to host the Emmy Awards this year, Sunday, Sept. 14 on CBS, so he now faces a challenge that Stephen Colbert knows all too well: making an awards show fun to watch. “Big Dumb Eyes: Stories From A Simpler Mind” is available now.
