Who else watches The Late Show With Stephen Colbert? Guy is really good, and this show of his is one of my favourite things to watch. With time I came to really notice this recurring thing he does which I'm calling "Picture-meme-roast" because I don't know what else to call it.
The Late Show is a show where Colbert makes jokes about the news and stuff, Google's Knowledge Graph puts it like this:
Using his sharp wit, Stephen Colbert shares his views on a number of trending news updates. Later, he invites guests to engage in candid conversations and presents musical performances.
So this Picture-meme-roast stuff is something he does when introducing a person he's about to talk about, the picture of the person is displayed on the screen and he says the person's name after adding something funny and roasty about the person. The funny stuff usually has something to do with what the person is doing or how the person is looking in the picture. Really great stuff.
For example, he'll say:
Fox News host and 4 year old who is allowed to dress himself today, Pete Heggseth:
Or
Presidential son and man regretting drinking all that cold brew right before the press conference, Hunter Biden:
I love it every time! 🤣 So, I've decided to be making compilations of the best ones. This is the twelfth collection I'm making, read the first here, the second, the third, the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, the seventh, the eighth, the ninth, the tenth, and the eleventh
