I Heart Stephen Colbert

One of the many things I've noticed here in Swizterland, is that people don't spend a lot of time watching TV. We actually don't even have a TV here at the Villa. There are a couple TV shows I've missed watching since making the move to Europe. I can't go to a show's website and watch episodes online either...every time I've tried, a message always appears saying "Episodes are currently only available to viewers in the United States." Because of this, I now have a newfound love for the Comedy Central network. You can watch full episodes of "The Daily Show" or "The Colbert Report" regardless of where you are in the world. I love it! Not only are the episodes free, but they make you laugh as well! And laughter is a very very good thing. If you're unfamiliar with either of these shows, they're basically fake news programs with a satirical comedic take on current news stories, politics, people, national media and various other things.
Stephen Colbert of "The Colbert Report" especially makes me laugh. I had a great time watching his interview Paul McCartney. I could try and describe it for you, but you really should see it for yourself HERE
