lol, he better have the original Kilborn set and always be wearing a leather jacket. I remember back in the day arguing with a conservative that Colbert's show was actually a parody, but I know now that I was wrong, liberal is liberal, objectively there is no difference.
???
He'll wear a suit for the gravitas.

I googled "jon stewart leather jacket". I didn't know what I was looking for but I found this - Jon Stewart Stand Up - 1994 Boston College Fest - YouTube
tl;dw He's like a seventh-rate Bill Hicks.
lol, exactly, god bless those writers
I didn't expect much but holy shit. If somebody asks him if Bill Hicks is an influence and he says anything other than a big yes - it's a gigantic lie. Back before the net - there was only so much good stuff to steal from. And I bet he watched his Hicks VHS tapes so often they started to wear out.
It is amazing how they can turn shit into gold.
