And he's correct about certain media's obsession with the "old man who likes ice cream." It should be heard far and wide. I stopped watching other late night shows because their monologues align with the liars and cheats, rather than facts.

I remember when there was breaking news while he was taping his monologue - think it was TFG's first visit with Kim Jong-Un - so Stephen abandoned his prepared script and ad libbed the rest.
